SE...learn to have a little fun!
Why! Why Square, where is your sense of fun, sometimes you shoot yourself in the foot just because you can, these little gems do more to aid the community spirit than anything else. Your heavy handed approach does just the opposite. Bah! Humbug!
Oh well atleast i know i can do this now

Dear SE,
You suck.
"Oh, the players are having a little bit of fun with a harmelss glitch, and a silly-funny video is getting some attention? Let's ruin everything because it's our job and we hate our players."
Dear SquareEnix, this is the message you are currently sending to everyone by removing a video and applying a strike on the user's YT account.
Good job.
What a shame... glad I had the chance to spam-view it before they took it down :eek:
I'm showing my age, but what about this? This was allowed back then. Is this the same thing? Why is FFXIV:ARR different? *puts on flame suit*

This is me when my wife visits her family for the week :D
Wait what!? I re-read posts and they took it down?! SE that was lame. I loved that video :(
wow what a shame, that video was so funny!
Put it on Vimeo or Idk, any other video hosting site ; ; That video is way too epic to not be out there, it was the best FFXIV related video atm!
Y U NO LIEK LALAS SE, WHY
Really SE?? that makes me sad ;(
Square Soft, 10/10, you made my day.
"No Fun Allowed" - Square Enix, 2013
So what was the deleted video about?
Sure, but what was in it and why was it removed by Squeenix?
Aw.... I didn't get to see it :(
SE... This was a mistake, right? Totally a mistake, definitely a mistake...
se why...
There are a lot of videos of stuff like this up. How, do you ask? Simple. People are smart enough to not post them on the official forums lol.
Drat, forgot to save it.
So let's recap. So what does a copyright strike do to a youtube account exactly?
A: The user will be unable to monetize any videos on his account.
B: The video length is limited to 10 minutes.
So the account is effectively dead, we won't see any more funny videos from this person and people will be scared to make anymore videos about XIV due to possible scare of the SE destroying their youtube account.
GOOD JOB GUYS! WAY TO PROMOTE YOUR GAME!~ /sarcasm
Thank you Squenix for a moment I forgot I was just a subscription fee to you and thought you actually liked the players in your community.
It makes me deeply sad this video was taken down. It was adorable, and made people who knew nothing about the game interested in playing (if only for the fun that the little Lala was having).
I really wish they would reconsider their policies regarding outside music being used with their game. I wish they'd be more open about it, like Blizzard is with WoW. They're really limiting their own exposure, and it's sad.
Because it's completely unreasonable for someone to assume that a normal video game studio wouldn't mind you posting a cute video of a harmless animation glitch set to funny music on their forums, right?
If you posted something like this on the battle.net forums you'd probably get a couple CM replies saying how much they liked it.
SE... ya'all do realize we're the ones who keep you in business right?
If the people want lalas in underpants glitching to music...
Hahaha, I downloaded it before it was removed!
I just saw a video where the art director from Blizzard was asked what makes him the most excited about the new player models they're working on. He literally said "Watching the awesome machinema the community will create with them". Not saying Blizz is always right by a long shot but found it ironic that both things happened around the same time. I hope this will force SE to go back and look at the limitations they have in place and how it will affect the game's growth.
The same happened during beta and early access, streamers weren't allowed to stream the game until it was officially released, and what was waiting for their eager viewers? Server is full please try again later or server creation limits on all the NA/EU servers. Honestly if I wasn't in beta and that was the only preview of the game I could get, I probably wouldn't have bought it (Glad I did :) ).
:( this became part of my daily rituals before logging in to XIV.
I'm going to /hug every Lalafell because they've been deprived from enjoying their average day.
SE just shutdown the greatest and most entertaining ffxiv video out there...nice :/
dang...should have downloaded it. Didn't expect SE to shut it down
have you tried scrolling all the way out the video apparently that allows it to play
i loved the video
what's really weird is they flagged/removed the video from youtube but didn't just delete this thread from the forums instead
here we are posting directly on their forums and yet they reached out to a 3rd party to remove the video
Does somone has this Video? Send me a PM please ^^ or add me on Skype : redacted
Spectacular own goal by SE in having this removed. The video was exactly the sort of thing that would have remained a favourite with the players for years, the sort of thing that would have garnered thousands of views from both existing players and non players. You can't buy that kind of advertising. Instead SE have made themselves look mean spirited and humourless.
I never got to watch the video. I will now never know the definition of fun. /sniffles.
Just remake the video without the song. Post the song used so we can download it, and then push play at the same time! We win.
I really want to see this video now but it looks like I missed my opportunity. Thanks Scrooge Enix!
