Most people don't care. The majority are likely just picking the first valid option from the list, doing the thing, and leaving.

If it were something I didn't have I might take part, but not much point in it seeing as I have the mount from last time. But yeah, I'd probably choose Zepla if I were participating.

So do you have to pay actual money to gift a sub?

Yeah its like 20 bucks total. So it is basically a store mount but this is an genius way of Square Enix promoting the MMO on Twitch. This is going to make news on the platform in a big way.

SE looking at Blizzard: "FINISH THEM!"

But yeah, I don't recall them doing something quite like this before. Usually it's some weird promotion like the Butterfinger one or an Amazon thing. Either way, the timing is way too coincidental.

SE looking at Blizzard: "FINISH THEM!"

Its obvious SE tries to fight WoW on twitch for viewer numbers as WoW has a LOT more daily views then FFXIV like 10x more.
But what they did is so insanely backwards that it will not help, i can guarantee you, players who want the mount ... they come into the room throw 4 subs and leave.

And how did that help the representation of FFXIV? Your feeding the known streamers, which is good for them, but has 0 benefit for SE.
Why did you not make it drops? Be in the room and you get a chance per min to get the mount, ppl would stay for a bit or turn off volume and have it in background. This would've inflated your numbers a lot more then a person jumping in and out. Or at least asked the player base about who they want on that list, or made it "any currently FFXIV playing streamer".

Every single SE campaign that's outside the game feels like "looks good on first glance, is not effective on second" ... Why were we not able to buy Butterfinger on amazon and hand in that receipt? "Nah man ... go to the US and buy em in a store or get Fked lol". I would've given them a chance, maybe liked them? Increased your sales worldwide? Nah US only ... just so backwards.

If you do the thing give it to zepla, one of the few ffxiv creators with more personality then cardboard, there's a reason no one watches FFXIV on twitch.

It's also just not a very good game to stream. What do you watch it for, the story? Then you just spoil the majority of the game for yourself. Do you watch it for the raids? That's only gonna be entertaining for so long since hard content is simply not the game's focus. Do you watch it for the streamers themselves? Then they might as well play anything else and it would be just as entertaining for you.

Some of those streamers on the list are also rather questionable, I've never heard of them and I bet if I looked into it I would probably find that a bunch started streaming the game maybe a month ago.

That's not even taking into account that 4 gifted subs cost you more than almost any other account-wide mount on the mogstation.


But hey, good for all those streamers getting a bunch of subs.

I already have it myself but it would be difficult for me to watch streamers as I don't really watch Twitch much myself. I'm more YouTube.
