How were streamers determined for the Twitch Chocobo campaign?

[Reap00]

Realistically what's going to happen is that people will drop 4 subs to who ever is currently streaming and never watch them again. FFXIV streams are just zzz compared to real games like WoW

Wow is absolute trash and a snooze to watch.

I only know about 4 of the ones on that list (Zepla, MTQ, Meoni and Happy) and out of them, I would only even consider watching Zepla, maybe MTQ. I really enjoy MTQ’s dungeon guides on You Tube. They are among the best and easiest to understand. I used to enjoy Meoni’s YT video’s because he would make informational videos on things other than dungeons. He used to be pleasant, concise and to the point, but now he has become very arrogant...always bragging about how people have given him money, gifts or gil for this or that item. He purposely drags out videos that should only take a couple of minutes (do longer videos make more money?) and just talks nonsense. I cannot listen or watch him anymore. Happy was probably the first person I found on YT and loved his videos early on. Later he became all about raiding and seemed condescending to those who were not that type of player, so pfffftttt.

Zepla has always had a different style of videos and she is funny and has heart. I could watch her anytime. One creator that I think was seriously overlooked is WORK TO GAME. Their videos helped me in creating macros, customizing the HUD and controller guides, you know the more technical stuff that others did not cover back then. Plus they are much more relatable to the regular (non-raider) player.

I do not think SE meant for this to become a popularity contest or to purposely exclude some awesome creators. However, these views and subscriptions could equal thousands and thousands of dollars in revenue for the creators on the list. So to anyone who is whining about those who are upset about being left out, put yourselves in their shoes. Especially if you had being doing this much longer with larger followings, you have to wonder what the criteria was.

I think SE made a big boo boo in not thinking this through a little more. I could be wrong, would not be the first time. XD I just think this may cause hard feelings by many in the community against those who were chosen by some fans of those not chosen. I know I am less inclined to ever try any of those on the list that I did not already support. I don’t know, I just feel the whole thing needed more thought before execution. *shrug*

MTQ is my go-to for all of my Extreme/Savage guides. I just like the way she explains things. She tells us what we need to know, nothing more and nothing less. That's the way I like it. Meanwhile, Mr. Happy goes off on about a dozen tangents between mechanic explanations.

Exactly!! Clear and precise. Just the facts and nothing else...well a few puns for fun of course. XD

Dam i already blacklisted our most favorite baiter and then you force me to read his post xD


Id go for MTQ to i guess, but i wont as I have 0 interest in streaming even less of games, besides its an mean to only use larger ones that already got the viewers...

This event is really disappointing for content creators that work hard every day helping the community. SE screwed a lot of streamers and let them down with this.

I have no clue why the list is too short and random, but this feels like a slap from SE to the streamers that didn't get selected.

Feeling really disappointed by collab.
A lot of streamer were left out even big ones too! Would really like to know the reasoning behind the choosing.
I feel ACT is one of the reason many were left out if so that’s messed up SE/twitch should at least draw a line in the sand so streamers will know to hide/remove it. Pretending it doesn’t exist helps no one.

If that factored in at all.. then it is a consequence of using a disallowed 3rd party tool, no? SE needn't say a damn word about it because the people using ACT already know they're not allowed to. They're just getting away with it because SE doesn't actively enforce.

You can’t sub to streamers that arent partners.

Well yeah. But if they are determined to make the mount acquired through subbing, it should have been open to a significant amount of more people which was my point.
