FF14 Real Life Raid: KFC Extreme

Apparently there's a black chocobo mount event in China involving KFC:

I mean, I can eat but...I don't know...


Maybe for the equivalent of a horde barding for cars...

Man, you can convince some people to do some dumb shit for pointless digital items.

It makes me very worried for what the UK promotion is going to be...

I would totally do that, eating is my hobby.

I might be fine on the food end, but 2 large pepsi's and 2 teas? I had to drink a litre of water in one sitting for a school event, and a few minutes later, I became a water fountain.

Ain't nobody gonna be able to keep 2 large pepsi's and teas down.

1 Double Chicken Burger
1 Vegan Mushroom Burger

You actually get four times that amount. Each person gets two burgers (one double chicken, one vegan mushroom)

Um.... Math is hard?
1 * 4 = 2 ???

Anyway, I guess the key to getting a fat chocobo is to... become a fat chocobo? lol

Also... rofl @ "lalafel doing it as undersized party"

This is simply disgusting.

It'd be 2 * 4 = 8. There's enough food to feed FOUR people, and each person gets 2 burgers. So 8 burgers.

Hmm instead of a item level requirement, they have a social score requirement.

Except you have to have enough *strength* for the event or you won't get past social link rank 5

EDIT: Actually, when looking at the food itself, maybe also *Boldness* and *Courage*

Not on board with requiring people to eat massive amounts of food (too much for one person); however, this is not without humor.

A couple of PF translations …

Our team was wiped. Failed to pull the roll and burger apart during P2, MT pulled two burgers. Just leave the coke alone, focus on the Chicken.

I was wiped at 5% solo. You MUST distribute the damage from the Pepsi, don’t let it stack …

The "Lala doing it as an undersized party" and "Heaven on High" memes made me chuckle as well.

If you can call that eating...

Clearly requires a full party - you will be by the end if you're not at the start.

Just remember you don't HAVE to do it solo. Bring a full party. Preferably family members who don't play FF so you get the BBC(hocobo) all to yourself!

From what i can tell, an individual person didn't exactly eat that much chicken, unless i missed a part in that post where one oddity Chinese person is able to consume levels of poultry on the level of us American eaters.

Then again KFC chicken is down-right disgusting, i loved it when i was younger and it was one of the only few exposures i had to fried chicken, but KFC became instantly uneatable to me once i was introduced to proper fried chicken (home-cooked chicken)

Either why i thought this post was rather interesting, because i can kinda see the weird humor in it (eat chicken made to make people fat to gain a Fat Chocobo)


It's really not the oddest promotion i've seen, but it's certainly the most out-of-place one; Isn't the average Chinese diet pretty lean? Or are there fat Chinese now? :D

EDIT:

Ahhh -i skipped over the list of whats in the Family meal.

1 Double Chicken Burger
1 Vegan Mushroom Burger
1 5-piece Chicken Nuggets
2 Original Recipe Chicken
1 2-piece New Orland Chicken Wings
1 Old Beijing Spicy Duck Roll
2 Pepsi (Large)
2 Peach Oolong Tea (Large)

------

That's really not a lot if you bring an actual family or group of friends with you. Heck i could eat half of that by myself (probably)..... okey i'm openly admitting to overeating. :D

Well, that looks so fun lmao

When I read that article, I simply couldn't believe how BIG a family combo was. The size of that combo is simply ridiculous, by the standards of anyone with a brain.

Oh, and they don't give you the code until AFTER you finish. And you have to eat at the restaurant... no take outs.

I'll be frank i'd truly partake in that if they gave us like a FFXIV promotion mount code giveaway for something like.... i don't know... Wendies? nah that wouldn't really work.

Yeah, i can't think of what i good food joint here in the northeast (New York) that would be a fitting local for an in-game mount FFXIV sponsored food event, but i'd definitely do it. I'd drag my whole family out for a Mount.... probably. xD

Oh wow, yikes, i missed that part. o__o

WHM and TANK got wiped first? must be some savage raid there, they should look for video guide first lol

KFC & Japan... #successfulMarketing for KFC $$$

The queues are as long as connecting to the servers at 8 pm, for Christmas Eve.

I did not think it would be the same in China for FFXIV ...
There is something to lose faith in humanity. /facepalm

You only need to bring Big Smoke.
Anyway, that amount of food is inhuman indeed. There's enough food in there to fill my belly for a day! Or maybe I'm just a light eater, I don't know.

i mean its not like your entire family will want the code. It's 1 code per family combo, so just treat out 3 friends who have no clue what ffxiv and you're done

Its the drink portions that really get me. Like... 4 large drinks per person is normal combo meal practices, since when???

The memes made me laugh out loud, though. Especially the artistry that was Heaven on High.

I could eat it..... But that's besides the point. Glad I just had to buy a game time card from Amazon for it lol.

It's still an unholy ridiculous amount of food, even if the friends you bring don't play FF14.

You'd also have to be prepared to explain yourself when it becomes clear these oblivious friends aren't gonna finish all that food and you start to panic at them for seemingly no reason... lol

More like heart attack extreme.

So ... basically... eat chocobos to get a chocobo,huh .....
