Literally who is Asmongold

[Taliriah]

When's your next stream?

I'm not narcissistic enough to believe that people would like to watch me playing video games, rather than playing those games themselves.
I also have bigger ambitions in life than spending my life playing video games.

It's a great discussion. Asmongold drops his stream persona here and is very thoughtful.

It's amazing how you made this topic a while back and talk about Asmongold's "stream persona," but today you have no idea who he is...

And people still think there's no toxicity in our community. If you want to see him as just another player, then he is just a player that is trying to play the game but is getting an insane harassment

Is this the new low effort troll meta?

Make a thread complaining about someone in the community, then make another post complaining about how toxic the post you made on the other account is?

wooooosh.

Let's not consider that, hey maybe the person's got an entertaining personality? Or that they're informative and can show people tricks and shit in the games they're playing. Or, let's discredit using a stream of a game to see if the gameplay's not terrible if youre considering buying it but not entirely sure it's worth it.

No the only reason to stream video games / watch video game streams is to just waste time.

I hope you are not talking about me, i'm just someone that thinks that we do have toxicity in our community and people need to face it to fix it. People have to stop this "perfect community" thing that is just making us blind. All games have problems, including ffxiv

Can't you people leave that streamer be and play the game ?
I didn't know him before, yes he looks famous and then what ?

Let me remind you all that Asmongold is now a FFXIV player and thus protected by the ToS. Specifically from people harrasing him saying he is an asshole or diffamating him saying he only has 50 viewers.

I've gone through this thread and reported all posts that infringe the ToS. Hopefully the GMs will uproot the toxic people in this community.

wooooosh.

I did get the dumb little "no u" joke. I just didn't think it was worth acknowledging.

It doesn't matter who he is.

All that matters is that he is a new player trying to play the game and is being constantly harassed by a crowd of unoccupied children who keep following him around trying to ruin his experience.
