I have a feeling if anyone tries to tell him he will end up just wrecking them with his attitude lol. I only watch him a little but I feel like some people here will end up being shut up for a change knowing the bubble is about to burst and the community is going to change

Why do the people following him have the worst mogs too lol.
If you're gonna be an attention seeker at least have something good to show?

Im curious...what is this Bubble thats being talked about?

Whats going to change about the FFXIV community? Probly the one and only thing Id be worried about is if Sprouts will be suddenly backhanded for existing or being badly treated just because they are new and dont know any better.
Otherwise...I dont understand what bubble is going to burst with the #2 MMO or whats going to change. We've had WoW refuges for the past few years, what is Asmondgold going to change by playing the game?

I'm bit disappointed in the FFXIV community; I thought we were better than this... There's no excuse for harassment, I don't care if you like the guy or not, just quit being bullies, it's embarrassing.

Sadly all it takes is a handful of morons to cause a lot of problems.
The fact that it isn't worse is actually indicative of how good the community is imo, I actually did expect it to be far worse than it is.

OK...watching him run Sastasha so slow is causing me emotional trauma :P

I mean, he's learning something he hasn't done before. I suspect he'll be chain pulling before too long.

I'm guessing a lot of his reactions are based on WoW dungeons? He seems to be taking even bosses slow.

Ultimately? Nothing. Though I'm sure my wait que when logging in tonight will likely be twice as large as it normally is, since we're on the same server.

A lot of this is backlash drummed up by certain posters who have cropped up on here, whose insufferable attitudes and disparaging remarks make it quite clear where their allegiances lie--and it is not with this game or it's community.

However, as much as I would like to lay the blame at someone's feet, its just stupid people being stupid at this point. A staple in any MMO. Thankfully he should be used to that.

But I don't think his presence is going to shake anything up beyond what it already has. We have to give him the power for that, and seeing as we haven't really given any streamer that sort of carte blanc (in this game at least), I have to assume Asmond's day in the sun will eventually fade as well.

Shall see I don't watch him that often but seeing how many followers he has only time will tell
