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

[Snorky]

The word "hate" is used frequently these days to cover a range of emotions that start at "mildly disagree with X" to "mildly annoyed by X" to "would destroy X if it was in my power".

I assume the OP was throwing the word around without understanding which emotional range they meant to convey.

I'd wager that there are a large number of people who totally ignore YouTubers. Or go to YouTube for the memes and laughs. There are also a number of people who religiously follow YouTubers (or other Social Media celebrities).

I personally enjoy watching K-Pop music videos. Go Stray Kids!

For FFXIV, Larryzaur videos were fun during the early years of the game. I prefer practical videos from MTQcapture and Meoni's videos can be very useful.

I've always seen Zepla as more of a Streamer than a YouTube personality ... probably because of the format of her videos.

Frankly, if I want an opinion about something in the game, I'll generate my own. No need to know, or care, if Mrhappy1227 agrees with me.

^^^this all of this^^^

Depends who you ask. I like you

Thanks! =D

You are definitely one of the nicest people I've encountered here. <3

I don't hate any of them. Course, I don't really follow them and the biggest ones are trying to diversify nowadays anyway. Not to mention certain ones that want FF14 to add in FOMO and such into it like WoW does for some reason.

Exactly. The reason why I like Zepla, as much as I agree with many of her points, is not about that, but because she is just fun to watch. Honestly, with XIV there's not even a whole lot to produce content for. We know it's like that when we see people doing 'coverage' of new mogstation additions in a 10min video lol.
