Let Asmongold subscriptions count towards the FFXIV x Twitch Collaborative Campaign

Just imagine one could change his opinion...

I've also kept quite a stance away from the typical weeby-looking games including FF, until I got a beta-invite to FFXIV.
After all, I was quite unfamiliar with those games. When put in comparison to something like Warcraft, JRPGs often appeared heavily sexualized, way too warm while they'd be in more realistic environment annihalated to oblivion, and to some point appear too childish as if the pixies' finished dream world (forgot the name again) was the norm. It also doesn't help if your friends or in Asmon's case his chat keeps promoting it to the point it becomes very annoying.
The constant promotion of "FFXIV free trial with award-winning expansion Heavensward" - or whatever the meme's wording is - can distance one further from the game.

Asmongold watched Endwalker trailer and said "the music sucks". This guy deserves nothing but indifference from me.

HAHAHA!! Loyally. And? You jealous and want some of that glorification as well? Well, too bad. In SE's eyes you're just another mark on the tally board rofl. When you bring them something to the table like Asmongold, then you might get some of this glorification!

The music was too "anime" or something along those lines (whatever the heck that means lol), but that was pretty much him trash talking what he could about the game while clearly showing some interest. A man in denial, more or less. Considering I was in denial for a long time regarding WoW, I know exactly what it looks like. For me, that trailer has bits and pieces of all of my musical tastes. FF XIV's content might not always be amazing, but the music quality has never suffered.

Basically too pop/rock instead of orchestral arrangement, like pretty much every AMV. Watch any WoW expansion cinematic and you'd find the difference in presentation between western and eastern media is quite different.

You’re so out of the loop it’s astonishing lol.

We are just as toxic as a whole if not more with the passive aggressive stance we take to not get banned

No, for real. I didn't really know about this dude until I physically looked up the name. I never played WoW, so any streamers related to the game I don't know about. I don't watch streamers; I find it boring most of the time. It's rare I'll watch Twitch streamers if not at all. So yes, I HAVE been living in a barrel. :p

I looked it up and this is the meaning I got.. A weeb is a derisive term for a non-Japanese person who is so obsessed with Japanese culture that they wish they were actually Japanese.

This only gets to me cause by that meaning ye--ah... XIV can't be weeb. Now... it IS anime. But that's a different thing altogether. Unless there's another meaning then I dunno. But that's what I got. :c Don't hate me.

I don't live on Twitter, twitch, or Facebook. I don't even have accounts.

I don't keep up with the random words people make up on said platforms.

He hasn't even streamed yet, why would they count?

He's still a WoW streamer, and tbh now is a bad time for him to try FFXIV with TBC just out and the first ShL patch finally coming. Definitely think it's good that the campaign is aimed at long time streamers who, let's be honest, are giving a lot of free advertising for FFXIV.

If Asmon wants to give the game a shot, fine, but going from a place where you're treated like a king is going to be pretty hard for him. I don't think players who are wary of him should be though- chances are he'll be gone before he even reaches Shadowbringers.

Besides, he's going to flip out when he loses every FFXIV mount off.
