Piece of advice- if you don't want to hear others opinions, don't give your own. He's free to hate the game, and insult the community as much as he wants... but turning around and crying that the community's giving it to him back is pretty absurd. Like, with the language and treatment of others he's giving- he clearly was looking for a fight.

He's just being a soft skinned hypocrite right now. When someone gives well reasoned, polite and rational feedback whether negative or positive and gets people dunking on them, sure, I think the community can step out of line- but in this case? He came looking for a fight. If someone enters a bar and starts cussing out the biggest guy there then gets laid out- not gonna feel bad for him. If someone comes into a game with the sole intent of dumping on it because they think they can ride the current trending wave- and gets called out, not gonna feel bad for him. He reminds me of modern games journalists that rip apart or praise games when it's clear they've read a synopsis and not played more than an hour of it because they care less about games and more about having a platform to talk about how tolerant they are for loathing x group of people.

There's nothing wrong with being a low skill level boostie like this streamer, there's plenty of room in gaming for players of every skill level... but if you stream, call others names, act like you're god tier when you're sub-sprout, and then declare FFXIV too hard and bad because you can't handle it... well, you're on social media, where people get ripped apart when they've done nothing to deserve it, and you've intentionally gone out of your way to deserve it.

Um I don't think people care about criticism. I more care about how the cult acts like they are offended and go on twitter to attack him personally because the guy does not like the game and did not play it right. I'm just like who cares if he did not, or used his platform to spread hate. Like let him, it was fun to watch his video, and watch him play. That is it.
