By the metric that there are 2,5 mil active users as far as I know and his whole screen wasn't full of people following him around.
What exactly is so hard for you to understand about this?
If a significant portion of the community was bad then there would've been more than enough of them to make it completely unplayable for him.
When I was watching it was like 10-20 people at most and some people along the way doing cheer emotes and a bunch of randos on Discord is not reflective of a community as a whole.

Do you think that it's okay for people to say '' men are bad '' because some men are bad?
Just because bad men exist doesn't make it a widespread issue, all it takes is a small minority to leave a big negative impression because that's how a lot of people work.
If you think that bad people existing in the community then do you also think I'd be right for saying that men are shit then too?

Football is a good example too, in Europe violence at football matches is a bit of a cultural thing there's clubs that actively organize to fight after matches regardless of who wins.
Do you think that therefore it'd be fair to generalize the '' football community '' and say that it's bad because of those people?

Edit: Also basically your entire post history is negative and shitting on the game.
Hence why I bring up alterior motives.

I both agree and disagree, they can definitely have a GM watching him and port out people who are insta killing his mobs.
It'd scare other people away from doing it too, I think people would stop doing it very fast if a GM made their presence known.

I don't think that asking them to keep everyone away is realistic or good.

Was also talking about a possible record viewers and subs

I believe he had the highest when WoW Classic was released which was around 284k viewers. Classic itself had enormous hype attached to it however since it was something players had been asking about for a very long time.

211k is still an amazing amount of viewers to have for any MMO however and probably hasn't been done outside of that Classic launch.

Honestly am happy for SE though since there are a ton of new players trying out FFXIV right now thanks in some decent part to the streamers who are advertising the game just by enjoying it.

The MSQ provides an enormous amount of streaming content and I've been checking out many new streamers play throughs since its great to see the reactions.

Ofcourse not. But SE totally knew when Asmon HIT the server. At that point could have had sneaky GM to follow him around, from a distance ofc. And have a little chat with the spergs.

There’s certainly a breakpoint where that “babysitting” could be a competitive advantage.

If a streamer had a viewership of lets say 1 million viewers on a regular basis I would really be surprised if SE "didn't" baby sit the entire server for them. Probably comes down to how much advertising SE is likely to receive for the effort.

This implies SE has the GM capabilities to do such a thing.

I doubt anyone on the NA team has the autonomy or authority to decide to babysit a player, regardless of how many people are watching them on twitch.

"Hopefully this erratic behavior will die down soon and Asmongold can enjoy Final Fantasy 14 for what it is." Yes please :)

I just hope what transpired today was a one-time thing and doesn’t happen again. It was sad to see the community stoop down to those levels going so far as to creating a discord server purely to mess with the guy. I’m actually very interested in him and his critiques of the game because following his streams he seems to be fairly blunt with them which is what i think this game could use. Hopefully SE is watching and takes notes on some of the things he says.
