The great streamer Asmongold is joining FFXIV

Nobody is suggesting that every single member of the FFXIV community is a bad apple. They're simply pointing out that it isn't as great or flawless as some make it out to be.

Has that been the narrative at all recently? I’ve not seen anyone say that without pushback in a good couple of years, not since SHB launched at least. Hell, most discussions of the community and its good qualities includes disclaimers explicitly stating that the community is imperfect and very YMMV.

all the people with ultimate and savage mounts stopped bothering him when he brought up reporting them, lol

Trying to shift the the blame on raiders with baseless claims is pretty lame. Even ignoring the fact that "ultimates mounts" is something you just made up, almost every single mounts hounding him are non raid.

He's lucky this isn't a wpvp game or he's face what he got on wow classic- stream snipers following him everywhere with raids just camping him. His 'fans' look to be stalking him and messing with his ability to finish quests; I imagine that'll be super annoying. Personally I'd find having dozens of people following me everywhere really distracting when trying to enjoy the story.

People actually did that? Geez...

People are being very rude to him and disrupting his gameplay experience with memes and toxicity - following him around and spamming their bright skills for example such as holy. I guess this is the best of what the FF community has to offer to a sprout rather than being welcoming and letting him mind his own and enjoy the game in the same was as all of us were allowed to. please, be respectful. don't chase people away that could potentially bring in more players.

It's not the FFXIV community doing it to him.

It's his own community doing it to him like they always do - and he knows it.

Both. These are not mutually exclusive.

Many of his griefers are _very_ experienced FF14 players. They are maxlevel, have high level mounts, savage gear etc. I doubt that many of those FF14 players are Asmongold fans.

Sounds like a normal stream from someone who is huge popular, really.
But I got to see how much of a mess the server can be and I thought hunt trains were obnoxious to move around!

Why would you doubt that, on page 92 of the Asmongold topic on the FFXIV official forums?
