    I don't know why FFXIV specifically has a fanbase that gets so absurdly hostile towards content creators so often. No wonder it has such a low amount despite being such a popular game.

    Predictions are guesswork 99% of the time. Those videos are made just to add/generate discussions.

    This is the equivalent of having to add IN MY OPINION at the beginning of every post you make in a forum. Very unnecessary.

    I am also quite a bit hostile towards content creators. I am not quite sure why. It's not like they are doing anything wrong, they just annoy the living crap out of me. Despite that, I still watch a lot of their videos. It's kind of like the news. I still watch the stuff despite how much I hate it, but I needs be aware of the ridiculous happening around the world. It's not like FFXIV content creators are in abundance or in demand, so I make do with what's there.

    FFXIV is indeed a popular game, and the Final Fantasy series has a large fanbase. However, it's just a smidge on the radars of the gaming community as a whole; and the gaming community is just a smidge on the radars of the population worldwide. That is why I said that the content creators are low in demand, because from a grander perspective FFXIV is a very niche choice to partake in if wanting to be a content creator. Even from only just the gamer demographic. I suppose even though they annoy me, I still respect them for making the decision to allocate their time to bring information to the community. It is commendable to take something you love, and find a way to help others benefit from that.

    Perhaps that is why. It resonates in a way that is negative because I have not been able to accomplish the same (probably even the opposite). That can be a tough thing to admit to.
