Petition to Ban Political Messaging at Fanfest

[Raoabolic]

We need to build a wall and make the Garleans pay for it.

LET ME TELL YOU, FOLKS, WE HAVE AN INCREDIBLE GAME HERE, ABSOLUTELY TREMENDOUS! BUT WE DON'T WANT ANY DIVISION, RIGHT? WE DON'T NEED THAT, NOT IN OUR FANTASTIC COMMUNITY!

THE LLAMATODD NONSENSE, I MEAN, WHAT WAS THAT? WE NEED TO KEEP IT CLASSY, FOLKS. SO I AGREE, LET’S GET THE COMMUNITY MANAGERS TO TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT THOSE RULES. NO POLITICAL HATS, NO "MAKE EORZEA GREAT AGAIN" NONSENSE. WE WANT TO FOCUS ON FUN, UNITY, AND MAKING THE GAME THE BEST IT CAN BE. THIS IS THE GREATEST GAME WITH THE BIGGEST AND BEST FREE TRIAL AROUND (I'M TOLD BY MANY PEOPLE)!

LET’S KEEP IT ABOUT THE GAME! MAKE EORZEA GREAT THROUGH GAMEPLAY, NOT THROUGH POLITICS. TREMENDOUS THINGS AHEAD!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

Entire FFXIV is political the exact same ways as things is happening in real life, both back then and now... AI for an instance with DT.... and insane Dictators and more... even past pandemic was a part of it... and more real life events....

And as Warrior or Light you have to fight against these extreme people you see everywhere and win for the actual greater good.

Do you guys think Dawntrail would have been better if the main character's name was "Woke Lamat" and Alisaie was posting on Tumblr and telling you that the city-state of Old-Sharlayan was rooted in sexist and ableist ideals? Maybe go back to the Gaius monologue and have him start it by putting on a red hat. I feel like it could enrich the lore a little, make it feel more real and bring it up to modern decency standards.

Unironically yes. If DT was a giant shitepost I would have preordered it and secured a year's subscription.

Seems we're in agreement. Maybe there's a spark there. Maybe an expansion that's more fun and less serious rather than trying to be profound in some way is what we need.

I mean, fair enough, it's an event meant for showcasing the game, not a rally for red hats OR blue hats.

Bro Imagine ICE Agents at the fan fest searching for YoshiP, trying to take him away while Smile is playing in the background. lmao

But we can still keep punching down on garleans, right? :^D

It is always correct to punch Garleans.
