So uh..why does this forum hate FFXIV youtubers so much?

I really don't understand it.

I really don't understand it.

The most important rule applies: If someone criticizes FFXIV, they will be hated.


Edit: This is not a good thing, and it happens way too much in this community.

Case in point

If there is controversy just by posting a video made by Zepla without any editing, that says something about the community ^^

Strong emphasis on the "3x mean people" because everyone who criticizes the game is perceived to be a gaius, aveyond, or stormpeaks alt, lmao.

Such concerns are voiced by many individuals who are not classed as such, however - suggesting that there's quite a bit of merit to them.

To say nothing of the fact that people criticising the game on any front (particularly when it comes to the story) face the very real risk of being sent credible death threats. As such a prominent content creator speaking critically of the game is such a breath of fresh air to those of us who regularly find ourselves stalked, threatened and persistently harassed by the more unhinged elements of this game's community.
