I have yet to see anyone "lose their mind" that the game is getting available on another platform. It's just childish imo.
And I also don't think it's completely fair to label whole community from a small offset or vocal minority with this so called gatekeeping or losing their minds.

For example, everyone on this forum or reddit doesn't represent the community as a whole. We are a minority. And lets be real, the forum at least is 90% trolls with zero moderation.
Nope he didn't return, and yea his minority of fans were a bit annoying, but catching his streams, you would always see him put them in their place cause despite Asmon being well..Asmon, he does really LOVE MMOs and wants nothing more than for them to succeed, and he did love the game, but he cited that whenever he played, lots of people in-game that he blatantly didn't know would actively follow him, spoil the story, try to join his dungeon runs and ruin his experience, eventually pushing him off the game.

It's like I always say, this game has the most passive aggressive community I have ever seen in a game, you just have to notice it at the right time, cause most of the time, it will be covered up under the guise of "We are the friendliest"
