Thank you for inviting Asmongold to the media tour!!

The problem in this case is the YT algorithm. It vastly prefers thumbnails with faces which show strong emotions. That's the reason why the thumbnails of almost all videos are so ridiculous.

There are plenty of creators living off their YouTube content and Patreon exclusively that don't resort to this at all. Good content + good production quality + genuine passion for their content being very noticeable in the videos = people will see it.
Some are just more sold out and desperately clickbaity than others, nothing more. Its the difference between "I love making my content" and "eh it pays the bills and I hate normal jobs"

Yeah...no. You want those type dungeons, go where you can get them.

It ain't here.

Dungeons with multiple difficulty options, you mean? Ahh, yes, the sheer horror of them.

Totally deserved invite. He was a large part of shift that caused a huge spike in FFXIV players. Anyone who denies that is burning their head in the sand.

You don't have to like someone to appreciate the good they've done. All these new players have really brought a usually-dead time of a MMO (Pre-expansion) into record levels and I'm seeing people tackle content they never bothered with before or was hard to get groups with before. PvP pops way quicker, there are more players in the overworld which makes it feel alive, cities are absolutely booming, the marketboard is feeling really healthy again or items across all levels, duty finder feels faster. It's just all wonderful.

I know queues in Endwalker are gunna suck but it's so worth it for the life that's been brought to us!

Either way the poor dude cant get a break. Mans had extreme health scares with his mother, is dealing with described depression and social anxieties with a side of what sounds like mild agoraphobia, and still people troll around using him.

This. How can these people sleep at night.

I don't get the negative of it. If people don't want to do them, they can just not do them. Like Ultimates and Raids - no one is forcing anyone to do that content.

I like dungeon and so adding a new layer and reward for running harder versions would be perfect for me personally. I'd play wow if I liked it but I tried it a few times and it's just not my cuppa tea.

I think it's more of a majority don't want the dev teams to put lot of hours and resources into something only a small minority is looking to clear/interested in - vs adding more content to the game.

[WoW]

They're opposed cause we don't have that type of content here, don't need it nor what it brings.

The game that has that content is still up & running. Enjoy!

Can you please point on this doll where did WOW hurt you exactly?

You have this already in 8-man-raids.

And no, i do not like multiple difficulties, either in dungeons nor in raids.

Only a "small minority" would desire for any difficulty options above "faceroll" in dungeons?

- vs adding more content to the game.

You realize nearly the entirety of a dungeon's development hours will be spent on assets, not, say, on simply allowing players to multiply enemy stats by 1.5x?

You're effectively suggesting we continue to save less than a 1% of the resources required to allow for multiple levels of difficulty... only to then have that dungeon actually engage people for less than 10% of the time.

That is a far less efficient use of development hours than spending faintly longer for more lasting and engaging content at player-chosen difficulty levels.
