Yeah I watched that stream, couldn’t stand it tbh.
As a New Zealander myself, same as the dude, I don’t have the joy of “different accent = funny” so he just comes off as extra-cringe, as it’s easier to tell when he’s “putting it on” for the camera.
And I just generally hated the way he called other players on screen “bitch”, and blaming the healers for his mistakes, it wasn’t a good look.
Quinn hating on the game.

People have the right to make opinions, but that right comes with the right of others to critique said opinions, especially when they are made on public platforms. So I do not see this as bullying it is more or less calling out internet BS which should be encouraged. If he would of said you know what guys I just cannot get into this game it is not for me. It would of been fine and I doubt anyone would of cared. It is all how he handled it.
But he skipped the leveling experience, the whole story, came in with an obvious bias, and honestly was laughably bad at endgame and blamed others for his failure and lack of basic game knowledge. He made statements about how the story was trash and cliche, raids are trash, combat is trash, things made no sense and so on... when he honestly all this was 100% his own fault for skipping everything and doing next to no research.
Now this person probably would of never liked the game and it is obvious he was trying to get views and ride the WoW creator going to ffxiv hype train. But honestly in my opinion if that video is how he normally acts around other people... let some other game have him lol. -

Damn, Quinn just pulled a 90000 IQ play. He just showed everyone how toxic the ffxiv community while signal boosting his own stream. In reality he couldn't careless about FFXIV, he understood how snowflakey this community is and found a way to enrage the entire ffxiv community by dumpstering over the story by skipping which enrages the casuals, then purposely did poor in the boss fights to enrages the raiders.
Man that guy is very very smart. It makes us look bad and makes him look like a victim.
The entire community just got played.
Next level 10/10. Better bait than anything anyone on this forum can pull off. I am shocked.
Only costed him ~$200 for this much advertisement. -

07-17-2021, 09:53 AMMPKIt's so clear that this was the intended outcome and he did everything on purpose. He did everything purposely to boost his channel right before the major PoE update. All the major streamers now think that the FFXIV community is toxic including asmongold and rich. Everyone thinks that Quinn is the victim in this.Quote:

07-17-2021, 09:59 AMGameoversBy that logic Lazypeon did it first so Quinn didn't do anything really but waste 200 bucks. I'm just saying. Hell not even lazypeon can take that as MMOGRINDER already had the cult panned in his review which is OLD. Like before stormblood old. I don't agree with these guys but Quinn did nothing here.Quote:

Just admit it, the community got played. -
07-17-2021, 10:06 AMGameoversBecause it literally just happened. Lazypeon's video happened like a year ago. I'm just saying. This is not new. It's been happening since the beginning of this game. It'll happen again with another person and people will freak out again like they always have. You just for some reason want to poke people into rage or something. I dunno why but I'm just here letting you know this isn't new, I don't have anything against you but yeah. This isn't new.Quote:

Point of correction btw... Lazypeon made people rage just as hard. It's literally the same thing that happened with him. It was so bad he took down his video. I don't aggree with doxing and death threats but both LP and this Q man did literally the same thing. He didn't do anything above LP. -
07-17-2021, 10:07 AMMPKI just wanted people to appreciate how big Quinn's brain is and let the community know that they got played :)Quote:

This is where my comment of being intentionally obtuse stems from. He scorned the community, whilst subsequently going on to say Quin doesn't deserve the hate, which he doesn't - That's all fine. But let's be frank if you're going to judge something or make a comment on something you know nothing about then you're going to get backlash himself. I'm pretty sure on this selfsame stream Asmongold done on his second channel openly admitted that he makes a routine effort to try and comment on things that he doesn't know what he's talking about. I beg the question- I wonder why he doesn't do that? Again, see intentionally obtuse.Quote:

Can't really help but think he's got the worse end of the stick here.
