The great streamer Asmongold is joining FFXIV

[Starflake]

If you want to find out what kind of slimy, positive toxic community FF is, look no further than this topic haha. Shameful and no better than WoW, actually probably worse. At least in WoW they tell it to you straight, I guess?

He's really coming to primal, huh? I was hoping he'd choose aether... I hope our community on primal doesn't change for the worst... And if he chooses behemoth it'd be the apocalypse for me...


Don't get me wrong. I love watching his content. I like him a lot, however his community is the worst thing ever. We'll see what will happen. It's inevitable.


I hope he sticks with the game until heavensward at least, but I think arr will be really hard for him to go trough...

I've been on Primal my entire FFXIV career, it could use a boost. I will enjoy seeing some more players here! Hopefully they use their AOEs!

True. Even if Asmongolds most toxic audience would also play FF14 it would be actually an improvement for the community. I have never experienced a community which more bullying and unwelcoming than the FF14 community. And i have played tons of other games.

I don't think he will make it past 30 honestly, I feel FFXIV is too slow for him, he complained about WoW after the CGD changes a couple of years ago so he'll almost certainly not like the combat in FFXIV, he also doesn't strike me as the type to sit through hours of cutscenes, so he'll probably spam skip faster than a BDO player going through their story quests and ultimately end up playing the game for the wrong reasons, just my opinion of course.

I wouldn't mind him skipping stuff, if it means he gets to content that is more bearable to him faster. It's not ideal, but new game + exists if people are ever curious about the story. I used to get mad at people skipping story in this game, but honestly, I think this game has so much content, so much stuff to do at every point, that I now recognize that this game is great even without the story. The story is great and makes us more invested in the world and instances, but the content is still good if you skip.

So you're saying Asmongold is being Condescending towards his own fanbase then because he has said "Its Just a game".

If you read his twitter, it's quite clear that was to make it clear it is just a game and there is not needed for twitter drama as it clear there is a clash between wow and ff14 players there either praising it and ask him not to come at all. Just like a big number of people in this thread is saying.

Never heard of this loser, yet I cared enough to post. Shoot me....

Why call someone you don't know a loser? I think you do know who Asmongold is and just trying to be "cool" on the internet.

Read this alot. But as a refugee, I never experienced that. As ever, problem pumbed out of proportion.

Have you said anything about wow does this better, would be cool if something similar was implemented in FF - in public?
I'm gonna guess no or you would been saying so much salt. Google "scottzone ff14 drama" and you shall see (tldr: doxxing, d threats etc)

I've had friends asking for wow transmog system. "OH HOW DARE YOU INSULT OUR GLAMOUR SYTEM REEEEEEE" paraphrasing ofc but you get the point.

Honestly, I hope he doesn't

That’s the difference between 14’s toxicity and WoW’s which actually makes me feel like 14 is just as bad if not worse. WoW’s is much more blunt/in your face whereas the 14 toxicity likes to be covered up and hide in the shadows. People pretend like it’s all rainbows and sunshine’s but it’s incredibly ugly on the inside. I hate that because people get this false notion of how good the community is and then they get hit with a rude awakening whether it be with casual toxicity or whatnot. It’s why i’m actually really excited for him
to come over now and perhaps bring a part of his viewer base over. This games community needs a kick in the head and needs to be humbled.

Can't believe this topic is literally MPK going "Guys you know this going to play our game" then almost 40 pages of people talking about thier gripes with aspects of the community because streamer has people who doesn't like him ranting about him and getting like 2 likes on thier posts maximum. Biggest space waster on the forums
