What was the Japanese reception to Nier crossover?

[Bright-Flower]

Oh no please no more of this shit.... They already ruined the "Alliance raid" slot with a collab, i'd prefer not seeing spillover more than necessary...
Just to be clear about how I see things (copypaste from a previous message I did) :


As far as i'm aware, FFXIV is kind of a "Theme Park" reuniting all Final Fantasy games, more or less.
To me, collabs are just collabs, they shouldn't replace main content. Ever.

And I disagree with the "This is canon because story and impact in the world" statement. Why ? Because this would then, by default, put anything lasting in the game as canon, wherever that content comes from. So yeah cool, let's just do a Mario Collab / Horizon Collab replacing main content and weave a story around and tadaaaaaaa ! that's canon!
...
*sigh* fml....

I mean I think it'd be dumb if they did a Mario collab that was canon sure but me thinking its dumb or not making sense doesn't affect whether it's canon or not. You can choose to ignore the Nier stuff in your headcanon if you want but that doesn't affect whether or not it's actually canon.
