Filtered. More bunboys for me
I wish I could be one of those cute bunny boys for real but instead I'm just a regular cute boy
bunny boys are for bunny girls
why is this board so obsessed with this guy?
They admire him for having the balls to blow his mom up and get away with it
>They admire him for having the balls to blow his mom up and get away with it
It's not often someone manages to pull of a late term abortion like that in public..
I can't imaging being such a shitty person you let that happen.
>I can't imaging being such a shitty person you let that happen.
You'd be shocked by how often it happens, because you cannot get lifelong smokers to fricking stop. My grandma, laying bed ridden and on oxygen, was supremely pissed off at her husband for hiding her cigarettes. Like he was doing it to just frick with her, and not because she'd light herself on fire. This is on top of her smoking even after having like three heart attacks, and multiple heart surgeries. The whole family tried to get her to stop, it never took.
>I can't imaging being such a shitty person you let that happen.
I can't imagine being such a shitty person you b***h and complain about dying from a sickness you walked straight into and ask for a cigarette so you can blow yourself up after not vaxxing like a fricking arrogant boomer so your son who takes care of you and brushes the flames off your stupid fricking ass can feel guilty for your death for the rest of his life
audible kek
then he turned her into content
Did she really explode?
She smoked next to her oxygen tank
Damn imagine finding your mum like that
She didn't die from exploding, but he had to smother flames on her a couple times.
yes, pathetic nicotine addict light up near her o2 while it was on
It's not just this board, it's fricking everywhere to the point that I can't find genuine news, leaks, or updates about the game because everyone's busy making shallow videos on his mild takes. Absolutely worthless community.
>I can't find genuine news, leaks, or updates about the game

He's basically PewDiePie of zoomers. You can't escape these ecelebs if you have any contact with the internet.
Viral marketing sure makes it look that way.
>when you're too casual for fricking FFXIV
holy kek
That's what reacting to youtube all day does to your brain
>Unironically got filtered by Stromblood.
Titan Wall didn't break him
ARR Wall didn't break him
The Post ARR Wall didn't break him
But sisters, we finally got him!
OH did he? what happened?
He got permanently mind broken by Alex Savage raids and then his entire life was shattered by PotD. FFXIV destroyed his entire ego and self-image he built up by years of ninja looting and being carried by simps.
Because he thought it was going to be some brain dead grind where you kill some world boss a million times and eventually shiny thing drops or in this case you clear and get a achievement.
I reality its like a discount old school dungeon crawling game full of RNG and cruelty so even 4 player parties have their runs ruined. All good and well to try but making stupid bets over things in a game he doesn't understand was foolish.
He still hasn't paid out his bet either.
His mom died and Zepla won't push it so he got off the hook. Its still sad because he can afford it
I'm not super well versed into the history of older XIV content but I've heard a lot of people saying that the HW content, specifically Savage, is some of the hardest content in the game, how true is this?
ehh yeah all savage content sync'd and min ilvl is hard in any tier but if you are coming from ARR raids yeah HW raids added a lot of new things
Nah, potency and mitigatiion creep has made old savages a complete joke even at min ilvl. The dps checks don't exist anymore, you can unga heal most heal checks, you don't have to rely on card RNG, TP, stance dancing, etc etc. Anybody who says its the same is a filthy newbie liar.
well what can you do the game changes and it cant account for old shit. back then we had TP and the classes were pretty much all different to what they are now. and i guess the new jobs as well
At the time, Alex nearly destroyed the entire raid scene. There's pictures of some weeks have literally 0 raid instances spawned it was so bad. That prompted them to dial back Savage and create Ultimates.
It was very hard on release because the devs were still trying to find their stride back then. The downside is some of the bosses killed raiding because while they were hard it was also kind of miserable so people stopped and complained. These fights were actually nerfed but it was pretty late in the game. Im not talking the usual item level nerf or new expansion job change nerf that can make older content easier. Just outright nerfed.
Honestly I would just skip that and do it after being caught up elsewhere.
HW Savage used to be super hard, it still is kinda but the way classes work now has made it a little bit easier.
HW Savage was so hard, that it almost killed the raiding scene back then, since then the devs aren't trying to make fights hard, rather they want them to be fun in their own twisted way of course.
Not anymore, but it's still really hard.
xi/v/cultists will never live down the phase where they were worshiping this gay after shitting on him for years
When did we do that?
Do all the other games that get multiple threads a day also send you into shrieking hysterics?
Did he really get filtered? In fricking Stormblood? Really? At this point the characters and setting already grew on you and despite being annoying Lyse is your frickbuddy for life. Unless he got mad at the boring long Gosetsu "torture sequence" intermission.
not filtered if people bug him a lot to do something he wants to do the opposite, his words
>not filtered if people bug him a lot to do something he wants to do the opposite, his words
yeah but he says he doesn't let other people control what he does and yet here he is letting other people control what he does.
He's a fricking midwit, at best. Don't listen to his nonsense. He can be mildly entertaining while actually playing a game, but that's the issue, he doesn't want to play games anymore. He wants to be an "internet personality" and "react" to shit. I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up in some "internet bloodsports" bullshit, where he would likely have his entire identity shattered when confronted with people with a triple digit IQ.
He actually once did a bloodsport stream with Nick Fuentes and Destiny
How did that work out?
I didn't actually watch it but afaik he was pretty neutral/uninvolved
He's a pussy and sits the fence unless 100% sure the public agrees.
Wow it’s almost like he’s an unreliable narrator of his own life! You’re telling me that a man that had never held down a job, only plays video games, and doesn’t even practice basic hygiene might be mentally ill and an ineffective judge of his own worldview?
It's been a year and xiv is still STILL getting multiple thread every fricking day.
>A year
Bro this place has a bunch of FFXIV threads since 2014. Go back to 2019 and watch tons of emet selch face threads.
>2014
There were daily threads about 1.0 too, fricking newbie mostly about how broken the game was and how it filtered normies and casuals, but still
It's just /xivg/ troons and discord troons that live in the game and on this board
It's the biggest mmo, of course it is.
pfff haha nice one
Is someone gonna tell him?
>VIDEOGAMES? ON MY Ganker?
>a year
Dude the entire reason Vauthryposting is a thing is because this board had literally 24/7 hype threads for Shadowbringers in the months before release to the point where Abib threw a shitfit about it (since XIV isn't a Nintendo game)
you're right, I think Ganker needs more non vidya related threads
Remember when xiv threads were deleted on sight so people had to make fake wow threads to trick the janny? Good times
Because XIVaberrations are deranged, i'm starting to think they are below genshin players
I think this about anyone who triggers me as well.
>Ganker poster SICKENED that a video game gets posts on Ganker
Never change, tourists.
first year?
they were much better years ago tho. This year /vg/ has gone full melty and create ton of shitty threads
FFXIV is literally the Ganker game. Hiroshimoot is even friends with yoship and shows up on his live letters.
site's owner plays it and is mates with yoshipee so cope lmao
Literally all Ganker has been for years now is XIV, Fire Emblem, and Monster Hunter. It really is fricking annoying.
its a psy op by the wow gays
you love to see it
This goblin is THE lowest common denominator personified. No self control, no taste, falls for every trick in the book. Of course the stream will be huge and of great interest to marketers.
His cognition didn't use to be so bad, however. He may have incurred nontrivial neurological damage at this point -- the real fricking deal. Only things that can still grab his attention mechanism are products that can hardly be called games, just naked skinner boxes, on steroids; the kind of stuff a normal functioning human with fully functioning mental faculties is able to immediately see through and pass by.
The few times I've opened the stream it's just been kinda sad to watch. Just a husk. Hollow.
This guy is so broken that when he isn't playing dopamine-hit skinner box games, he's relying on his viewcount to hit his pleasure receptors, even when he's playing actual videogames. The games do nothing for him any more.

You assumed wrong.
Wtf I never get this
Damn shitty australian servers
Don't worry friend, you can visit Balmung's Shifting Sands next week and experience public chat diaper play.
I thought DC travel was restricted to regions? NA to NA, JP to JP etc
Did they change their minds?
I haven't looked into the specifics of it, I just assumed you could go anywhere.
>*plays ffxiv*
>*gets less than half the viewers of a Lost Ark stream*
This is the real reason he quit
Like at the beginning of Lost Ark? Sure, new games always draw big numbers. I doubt anyone stuck around for hundreds of hours of moronic Lost Ark progression. Even FFXIV is only interesting when he's reacting to the story and not dicking around in old raids and trials.
>*does literally anything*
>*gets less than half the viewers of a non video game "React to react videos" stream*
this is the future of a money grifter who needs to pay his addictions
lost ark took my friends from me
why the frick do they like that stupid korea armor break crafting bullshit

>break the rest with whatever the default percentage is
FRICK YOU FRICK YOU FRICK YOU
Welcome to kmmos, thankfully you never played modern maplestory otherwise youll be dead by now
I refused to play it when I heard people were dropping nearly a thousand to gear up. Yes I am am aware free 2 play players can get it too but I don't enjoy grinding forever and then watching swipey swiper get it done in 10 minutes.
my friend constantly complains about gear not being good enough and barely making progress because of the stupid rng crafting system and having to wait for dailies/weeklies
Same. Couple of friends who played xiv with me suddenly quit for lost ark then constantly bombarded me on steam about how trash xiv is while they played lost ark all day. And if we were talking about anything not even related to xiv, they'd always go "well XIV is shit so blahblahblah". So weird
your friends are homosexuals that have their views cultivated by youtubers/streamers
That is exactly how the wow players are that left their game for XIV. In this case they just might you want you to join them
what
you literally can't break or degrade your gear when you fail an upgrade in lost ark. you just build up pity and you'll eventually upgrade it
and there are no red gems what the frick are you even talking about
you lose gear from bad rolls on ability stones, the tripod transfers. You can possibly lose gold on possibly doing anything that involves optimizing or upgrading your character. This is unheard of in FF14 and even in WoW.
he did a couple debates with destiny, you can still find the videos. He features in the 6v1 Destiny debate - he mostly comes in to calm down the tonka trucks guy and Britney Venti though.
Video games, homosexual, VIDEO GAMES.
I made all of these because i just fricking hate Ganker and the shitposters feasting on its carcass.
Being humble is personality of king. Arrogance personality of peasant. So watch out who you call mindless parasites asmon, as you are one.
He quit because he hates the fricking game. He told his autistic, moronic fanbase 50000 million times everytime over the years when they asked him to try XIV that the one thing he didn't care about in MMOs is story. He can't fricking stand it.
If you've watched him long enough you can tell very easily when he's putting on an act and when he's being himself.
Even in the beginning when he was milking it for all it's worth, he was playing 2-3 hours at MOST and dragging out intros and shit.
For comparison, his WoW and Souls streams were 6+ hours regularly. Hell, look at Lost Ark, or New World. He played those constantly, AND off stream. All he did off-stream for XIV was some shitty MGP farming, lmao.
He detests the game, and I don't blame him. It's fricking boring as hell to play. I quite literally could not name a more boring MMO to play, and I've played them all.
It's a combination of these two things right here.
Asmon is not a story person he never has been, his passion for story/lore boils down to "dude arthas was cool". FF is an extremely story focused game so it's boring to him most of the time.
Pretty much. The combat would feel like a massive downgrade from WoW's, though. You play unreals or savage raids and it's literally just 100 variants of 'stand in this place at this time'. That shit got old all the way back in BC. I could stomach the mostly shit, filler-filled story, the shit, samey races that are all just teenage girls with stuck-on plastic tails and ears, the world being completely pointless, instances and full of invisible walls, the PVP being so bad the playerbase pretends it doesn't exist... The list goes on. IF the combat was good, I could stomach it. But the combat is horrendous.
not worth the (you)
>The combat would feel like a massive downgrade from WoW's
lmao what the frick are you on about. that's one thing these two dogshit games have in common, they have no fricking combat
Nah. WoW is pretty ass, and I wouldn't say it has 'good combat' but comparing it to XIV's is just asinine.
I know one friend that played XIV and very briefly tried WoW semi-recently, they said the combat was already more involved in the new tutorial island than XIV's endgame.
Problem with XIV's combat is that it's too slow, safe, predictable. Nothing matters, every class just has some shitty gimmick that very, very slightly changes the order in which you press your buttons.
At least WoW lets it's classes do unique shit in and out of combat. XIV combat literally feels like you could very easily program a bot to play it. Nothing you do matters or affects anything.
>every class just has some shitty gimmick that very, very slightly changes the order in which you press your buttons.
Congrats, you just described every mmo.
Bad mmos, sure. In WoW, if you play a rogue, you ARE a rogue. You can pick locks, pockets, sneak around, sap people, use poisons, temporarily ignore/revert all spells, etc. If you're a demonhunter you can double jump, see through walls, glide, imprison demons, use iframes, etc. A warlock can pick different summons that can actually do things, like succubi seducing humanoids, they can set teleport gates for other people, they can give people a buff that lets them revive instantly once, give people instant free mini foods... Etcetera. Every class is unique and actually DOES things, in and out of combat. You're not just sitting and doing a rotation, like in shit MMOs. And WoW's combat isn't even good, it's just that other MMOs nowadays are so braindead and shit it looks good in comparison.
Its the leftover ripped-off soul from EQ, that's why WoW has some superiority over XIV in the things you mentioned. For the record I like both games but XIV bailed on its own EQ inspired game/roots with XI and idk why. So much more heart in XI and insane depth to each class
because you had to be a neet or pulling all nighters to get anything done in 11 when it came out. And Japan has some real shit work hours and people playing MMO's started growing up
Its clear you haven't played many, if any MMOs other than wow and XIV
I wish that wasn't true. Let me guess, you're some mouthbreather who's going to claim BDO has the finest MMO combat in history or some other completely moronic take?
I can guarantee you I've played more MMOs than you.
WoW used to have fun stuff for classes. But now? Lol locks and pockets are useless they don't give you anything, sneaking also becomes obsolete the moment you unlock flying. Cloak of shadow is fun tho.
You literally spam 1 button to get combo points and use them on finishers over and over again.
>XIV combat literally feels like you could very easily program a bot to play it.
And you can.
>implying WoW's combat can't be programed to be done by a bot
>XIV combat literally feels like you could very easily program a bot to play it
there are bots for the hardest raids and trials
dude ive been trying to force myself to like wows combat for so long. i dont understand how you do it, those outdated animations are dogshit. combat in ffxiv is a thousand better and feels better since youre pressing more buttons more frequently
>you're pressing more buttons and more frequently
You had me going until you said that. More buttons? Maybe, depends on class. More frequently? God, no. Not even on something fast like NIN. In one XIV GCD i've dashed across the screen twice, stunned in an aoe and used three separate attacks.
You are shitposting and didn't play the game.
>Not even on something fast like NIN
Nins one of the slower ones brainlet, its dragoon thats fast, on account of all its cds. nin has like 30 seconds downtime between its burst phase where all you do is 1/2/3 basic attack. Nice job showing that you don't actually play the game.
This
WoW's gameplay is so much better, XIV only has story over WoW since Blizzard has horrible writers.
the gameplay in wow just feels more button mashy to me and clearing hard raids is more about gearing it. Im not saying its bad but I wouldn't call it good either. It is absolutely better for new players compared to XIV though.
I quit because the story is so awful It makes me not give a shit about a world I did care about from the old RTS games. So every zone and fight has no meaning because I don't give a shit about anything going on in it. Pretty sad when even Diablo 2 made me care enough to feel connected at least.
The combat in WoW was peak in BFA with the absurd amounts of haste you could stack masking the utter shittiness of current class design. I could barely keep my fricking eyes open leveling in Shadowlands when they took away the speed and then the story happened and I can't think of a single thing they could do to fix the utter shit they call a narrative.
>unholy DK with 150% haste
The mega haste and damage potential was funny in the last patch of BFA (for PVE). In PVP it was still dragged out garbage a good amount of the time, until a tank procs twilight devastation x8 and oneshots someone.
Didn't really play pvp in WoW. but frick I remember getting massive crits with Twilight on my BDK. I'd queue for heroics just for the chance of one shotting bosses with a VP boosted Twilight crit.
I played shadow priest, getting over 150 percent haste and constant 100 percent crit was too satisfying, they were actually right to nerf the class like 30 percent at the start of the patch. You could do giant M+ pulls if people run devastation also the awakening portal affix was their best dungeon gimmick yet.
In PVP, since everyone stacks versatility corruptions (and items that boost verse as a proc), the damage taken was very muted compared to current shadowlands most of the time. That said you could do shit like make a 0 cooldown paladin throwing stuns 4 times in a row, having avenging wrath up constantly or make a .5 second greater pyroblast casting mage.
And the sad thing is, the story isn't THAT much better. It's just that WoW's story is so unapologetically shit these days, anything is better. But people should really not pretend XIV's silent cutscene nodding and fetch quest simulator is much better. It's 90% shit with a couple of decent to good moments. Unacceptably bad with how some cutscenes are, too. Looks like a PS2 game. As bad as... Well, WoW's. Except WoW's aren't it's selling points.
I don't get it, honestly. I really don't. People act as if the story is on par with a singleplayer game and it's really not. It's probably a moronic weeb thing, they see verbose writing and automatically praise it because they think it makes them looks smart.
WoW's "story" was only ever good in Vanilla and somewhat TBC, by that i mean world building.
The problem is no one read the quests but there is some great shit there, especially on Horde with the slow realisation how much of a problem the silithids are, at first they were more worried about the exploration league in kalimdor and laughed at the "bugs"
I liked a lot of Legion's class quests. Should have stuck to that.
The DK ones were pretty good, i have never been a fan of your character being a super hero however.
I'm fine with my character having a separate storyline where they are the protagonist, I can isolate that from the game world at large where my character is just a random adventurer. The DK quests were definitely the high point, but a lot of them were good. Rogue was another really good one, and also had one of the best bases. The worst was probably the Hunter quests, you just end up helping a group of hunters that didn't exist until they were invented for that questline.
Should have been about going on an adventure with hemet nesingwary and his son, shame.
Yep... and unsurprisingly, the only good parts of the Hunter questline involved Hemet and his crew.
Legion in general was pretty decent, artifact weapons aside, that was a stupid idea and whoever had it should be fired. They say Dragonflight is basically going to be Legion 2.0, so I'm at least a little hopeful.
Parts of XIV are utter shit but Shadowbringers is unironically one of the best RPG stories in years.
Shadowbringers was literally entirely filler aside from Eulmore and Amaurot. And Selch going full moron with flimsy justifications at the end purely because it's an MMO and needs a final boss is insanely shit and goes against his entire character.
Are you talking about how he was in endwalker or Shadowbringers? either way it was consistent he wanted to bring back what he lost and considered the current world where people are greedy and back stab each other to be an abomination. Yet at times he wanted to give it a chance too because I'm sure he liked things about it.
You didn't get it. Like really, you didn't get it at all.
I pray your kind dies out.
Not an argument.
Shadowbringers is the most lazy isekai garbage ever written and only a true subhuman ape NPC like you and the masses can enjoy it.
Shadowbringers war shit and pure cringe... "r-remember us wol-kun".
type properly you sperg
You could not be more wrong. WoW's raiding is dogshit that uses busywork to disguise how smoothbrained it is.
>He told his autistic, moronic fanbase 50000 million times everytime over the years when they asked him to try XIV that the one thing he didn't care about in MMOs is story. He can't fricking stand it.
I mean, for not caring about the story, he seems to have fricking memorized the minutia to a degree that would rival most loregays. Which is weird, because his knowledge of WoW lore is dogshit.
Sometimes if you just play the game and dont autisticly and constantly right shit down like homework you'll probably remember more.
wrong way around, constantly writing shit down helps you remember
And the everyone who does doesn't remember shit while the people who just play the damn game do.
He is legitimately autistic about memorizing stuff. This is the guy who can name every piece of equipment in WoW and where it comes from. Besides, he has to sell it that he likes the game and he knows the cultist fanbase will hound him about it.
He's obviously paying attention, but if you can't immediately spot those obviously fake reactions of his to everything, then I don't know what to tell you. He's not a good actor.
He reads every single line of dialogue out loud for the audience. If he really hated the story as much as Ganker claims he does he'd have rapid-fire clicked through all of the dialogue or just hit Escape and clicked "Skip cutscene".
If he did that, he wouldn't have gotten the 100k+ cultists that he got watching his XIV streams.
He does the same shit with his reaction content. Constantly overreacts and tries to spout 'based' opinions.
It is pretty interesting, isn't it, that he skips (pretty much) the story in every single other game he plays and in that one he doesn't, and yet only manages to play one hour or two per stream, whereas he can stream those other games the entire day.
Real mystery, that one.
Meanwhile other people can stream FFXIV for several hours a day straight while reading the text and doing sidequests and etc without any problem at all. Isn't that strange?
Yeah, it really is very interesting. He must just be getting old, that's it, no no, don't look at his Lost Ark and New World streams, t-those are anomalies.
It's funny how Gankerirgins claim to despise any and all ecelebs, youtubers, twitchers, streamers, game journalists, etc etc, but there's always a clade of Gankerirgins defending and worshiping this guy who set his mother on fire, doesn't take care of himself, lives in squalor and filth, and does everything Ganker claims to hate.
People half-joke about it but I can't fricking believe there isn't an e-celeb board yet
Just call it /ec/ or something
the running joke has been /incel/ - Internet Celebrities for a while now
Lol you don't get it newbie, it's ironic
>invades your game
>shits it up with the worst fricking fan base, polluting the fanbase mentality and attitude towards expectations, demands, and towards the developers
>leaves
>uh guys...not my fault...
fricking autistic wowtrannies and their raidspergs
If you didn't want those people why have Fhomosexuals been here in Ganker for years trying to convince wow players to defect to their side of the swamp?
Don't even try to act like it hasn't been orchestrated shilling for years now, always targeting other MMO threads and especially the wow ones.
so just like when a new MMO came out and all the wow players would run and troll the shit out of it? This doesn't happen as much but everyone knows wow is in a bad place for like 5 years now
Did he actually quit or is this just XIV gays mad that he isn't streaming the game 12 hours a day everyday?
Who cares, thats not what these threads are for anyways
He said he doesn't like people b***hing about his 6 hours of react content or b***hing that he says he will play the game that day but doesn't. He says he doesn't like this drama despite profiting off it. He says for now he will just continue to play the game when he wants and how he wants.
I suppose we can assume based on how his return has gone that means. 6 hours or more of react content then maybe 3 hours of XIV once or twice a week followed by lost ark daily grind or whatever.
People need to get over it but the truth is people who dont want him to play the game are trolling him to get him to quit.
He should just quit play video games and become a react andy anyway, he clearly prefers it.
He actually said he believes his strength as a streamer is react content now. It seems to get quite a few views and its easy to do.
The funny thing about people is they don't like to be bait and switched
>He actually said he believes his strength as a streamer is react content now. It seems to get quite a few views and its easy to do.
He has no strength. The dude is straight up moronic and barely knows how to function as a human being. He once said that people shouldn't feel the need to have opinions on things they know nothing about, yet here we are with this moron doing exactly that. Or worse, watching shitty videos and regurgitating other people's opinions as if they were his own. Of course that shits easy to do, but when you change your own opinion on stuff three times a day then I really wonder how fricking deluded he is to believe that react content is his "strength".
He's antagonizing XIVtards on purpose so that he can blame it on them when he doesn't want to play the game. He's a little b***h with no integrity at all and simply refuses to openly admit that.
I'm sure when he said strength he meant it got lots of views and made him money. And yeah his life is pretty fricked and he is outright bad at being an adult but you cant deny he made plenty of money and will continue to do so.
Of course he is 31 refuses to see a doctor and chugs soda back while living in unhealthy conditions so I suspect he is going to end up in an emergency room for something assuming he doesn't die outright.
>He's a little b***h with no integrity at all and simply refuses to openly admit that.
Actually, he admits he has no integrity all the time. Nearly daily even, but people keep glossing over this.
He's always been a grifter and a scammer and he's proud of it.
I'm on the free trial, is the augmented shire gear the best I can get?
Yes and also gear doesn't matter.
it does when i need a certain item level to enter duties
Is it not his own fault for killing all the momentum of his playthrough by taking a random year off in the middle of the game right as it starts to get good? Why is it a surprise that a year later his playthrough got no viewers?
His e-fame got to his fricking head, he thinks he can do anything and get 100k viewers regardless. That kind of game you have to do all in one go or else you'll never go back
I don't think hes grifting in this case. I actually think he's trying to filter out all the really austistic xiv viewers by baiting them daily until they decide to not come back, then return to the msq when they're mostly gone.
His "really autistic xiv viewers" are mostly WoWgays who want him to stop playing.
and with his newest reason of "everytime i see people say play ff14 i'm just not gonna do it" gives them ammo
you realise he makes his living based on viewer numbers, right? why the frick would he deliberately drive off his audience?
He literally thinks he's better than he is because he got a small spotlight during Depp.
He already has enough money to do nothing the rest of his life, and he's such a nolifer he doesn't have any inclination on spending all of it indiscriminately on material wealth.
He just doesn't find the game fun and is not a story person, he also doesn't need to jerk off to the anime girls because he can just frick onlyfans ho's when he wants. It's just not the game for him.
>"dood I can't wait to come back and do 6 hour xiv story streams everyday bois"
>comes back and does maybe 4 hours of story over 3 days
>keeps putting xiv in his title and doesn't play it
>acts surprised when xiv gays are upset
they're mentally ill but he is one thinskinned b***h
Dude should just quit for good so i can stop seeing his rotten teeth in these stupid bait threads
can't think of any "professional" relationship more cucked than a streamer and his chat. it's the only service people give money to for the streamer to act entitled and get pissed that theirs an expectation from the people actively sustaining their lifestyle. it's sad because it all works out because of the subscription model. the guy won't even let people complain about it because it makes him sad or some shit. If you subscribe to a streamer you are a moron.
I was watching a Tarkov streamer because he was good and I wanted to pick up skills and game/map knowledge from him. He kept getting donations of people going "Thanks for all you've done for the community, here is to another 10 months" when all the streamer did is stream. So many people were figuratively sucking his dick and sending money to him (he was getting a donation like once every minute), and I wondered if the whole world was going insane of if it was just me.
>pretending not to understand why a streamer could be well liked or receive a lot of donations
Is this some kind of cope? No one is this moronic and socially inept. Kind of embarrassing acting like you're clueless as to why that is happening.
I like to watch sometimes but will never donate. When they make too much money they just turn into react and just chatting all day anyway. Streamers already make money from ads and sponsors I'm not financing them playing games all day and getting a big ego from it.
He is not wrong.
A community that pretends that ShB is better than SB, can only be moronic.
Storywise it is, Shadowbringers is a massive step up over Stormblood.
Contentwise I agree, Shadowbringers was the expansion with the least content so far, as Endwalker already promises more with 2 ultimates, My Island, new dungeon modes and a new deep dungeon.
I unironically enjoyed Stormblood more than Shadowbringers
I felt nothing for emet-selch
Maybe if I replay it my opinion will change

Wouldn't one be remiss to fail considering the cuckoldry of possessing an effeminite appearance?
I cannot bethink or comprehend of aught more cucked than such. Think it through in earnest. Thou art spending considerable time dressing up thy vision of a perfect wench, precisely handcrafting every detaileth, spending arduous amounts of timeth in the dungeons or levelling crafters to findeth the perfect glamour. All of 't hast one simple result: thy wench is more enjoyable for the men yond shall eventually erp making loveth to her every orifice.
Hath raised the perfect wench, has't thee? Wondrous. Who is't benefits? Certainly not thee. Thee shall needeth anothor to fornicate or marryeth with. Even shouldst thee CMTool her with anothor figure thee've madeth thee shall never receiveth the pleasure of fornicating with her yourself. Thee can only gaze as thou art cuck'd by another of thy creations.
As a sir who is't plays a femqote, thou art literally dedicating at least a thousand hours in this mmo simply to maketh a wench for other men to partake in. T'is the ultimate and final cuckoldry. Doth reflecteth upon these words.

Reminder he has said he visits these threads often.
good, i want him to know that he's a mentally ill piece of shit who should stick to sucking blizzards diseased wiener and stop playing this game
Lyse's ass on my face
Post more Lyse please.
he wasn't filtered. The whiny troon and homosexual fanbase made him quit. Bunch of fricking homosexuals crying everytime he was late to play the game.
I have played this game for months and have not once encountered any of the boogeymen people talk about. People range from inoffensively polite to simply saying 'gg' after the trial/dungeon is over.
>People shit talking game don't actually play it
No way dude
I mean, I know where I'm posting right now. I have problems with FFXIV and I don't need to defend it. I think the community is probably the least of it's problems. We should talk more about how boring quest chains are and how the MMO aspects of the game bog it down completely.
thats not the problem. Say anything in chat against the leftoid narrative. Infact say in chat you are pro life and then see what type of people you are playing the game with. These are the people harrassing him for not playing the game and also raging in his chat because he said he approves of Police and didnt agree with the SCOTUS being doxxed. He quit playing the game because the fanbase are insane troons and homosexuals.
Say you're pro-life on any corner of the internet and see what happens, man. People who that take on their political values as a personality are highly opinionated and morally grandstand to get the better of others. I don't understand the mentality presented that EVERYONE is like that however, because it simply isn't true.
Pro life was just and example and you are wrong there are plently of places that are pro pro life. Just Reddit and troon havens like FFXIV. The point is they fanbase is nice in game because they are forced to by a social contract where any toxicity will get you banned. They dogpile and try to cancel anyone who doesn't align with their beliefs.
>The point is they fanbase is nice in game because they are forced to by a social contract where any toxicity will get you banned
I don't entirely disagree, but I do think there are legitimately just nice people. People see others being nice and they too will acclimate to the environment. Do some people exaggerate this? Absolutely, but it doesn't help you or anyone else questioning if these people are sincere or not. If they are, then you lose nothing. If they aren't, then you can assess them case-by-case and determine if it's worth something to you.
/v/irgins despise any form of being a nice civil decent human being. Anyone doing that is a demon liberal forcing laws and regulations on everyone.
>talking about prolife/prochoice in a video game
Kek. Who is the mentally ill one?
Most of the weirdos are found in limsas main square, or in NN. Otherwise they quarantine themselves into their erp fcs or linkshells fairly well.
>Sexualize a married woman
Why are FFXIV community like this?
>tells you to dress her up in something that'll make her husband blush
Literally asking for it.
Hubba Hubba
That whole family is the property of the WoL.
The better question is why in the frick is the lighting in this game so bad? I honestly can not believe how bad the graphics are in this game. I usually don't give a shit about graphics, but my god
They're supposed to be revamping the lighting in the next expansion.
The models are actually pretty decent but the lighting engine is atrocious at the moment. When graphicsgays b***h about things in games it comes down to 2 things usually, shitty lighting, or shitty textures.
XIV has bad Textures, Aliasing, and Lighting, and if they fix 2/3 of those with the revamp Im gonna coom.
A good lighting engine can at least SIGNIFICANTLY increase your perception of the games appearance more than the other 2.
Because
Bro it's okay, she asked for it so that you could spice up her sex life
>every single line of dialogue from lalafell NPC's is about how wet they are for fat wieners or how much cat girl slave pussy they are slaying
>players be like "Bawwnooo you can't sexualize the heckin wholesome lalas they're literal children NOOOO"
Are we playing the same game here?
Ul'dah fired zombie powder into its sister city killing everyone and blamed it on them. This city was most certainly full of lalafell and to top it off they pretended that city did it to itself and buried the truth. The dispute was over the sister city blocking the river during a drought.
they absolutely behave like sinister adults even A sweet one like Tataru has her moments. The cute emotes are probably an act to get people to drop their guard. So they are pretty much based
That all you got? Lalafells destroyed the nation the scholar job comes from, because at some point, they might, MAYBE, join in the war against light and dark magic, of which the lalas had the latter of, they destroyed them by using a voidsent plague that turned them all into tonberries.
The fifth or sixth umbral calamity was implied to be because of the lalafells, because they dabbled too deep into black magic and cause an apocalypse.
I'm going to say it.
Shadowlands was/is good.
The only part of it that was terrible is the story.
Covenants were good. PVP was good. Torghast was fun, the raid was good. Legendary system is good. The plethora of new leveling systems/syncing is good. Cross-faction is good.
Unironically the only reason everyone shits on it is because WoW's playerbase is full of moronic neets who don't play other games who are so deep down the sunk cost rabbit hole that they shit on every single feature and addition. They've been doing it since Legion. Torghast is the perfect example. One of the most fun gamemodes they did in a long time, lets you frick around with your class and break it with your friends in randomized dungeons for relevant rewards... 'blizzard this shit is boring why the frick am I not having fun when I ran torghast 50 times this week!!!'
They literally do nothing else but play the game 24/7, then complain they're not having fun. Anyone who's not stupidly autistic can play the game and find it fun. Aside from the pozzed and storyline shit, of course, no excuses there.
War mode was one of the best things they added to the game, along with PVP abilities/talents.
9.0 was very good, 9.1 is when it went to utter shit when Alex got the boot and Danuser started to go harder on the Marvel influence. Obviously COVID and internal drama left the story missing an act as well.
I liked the tough choices covenants gave you that actually mattered, i liked Sire, the quest where you escort Ysera's egg was a highlight and even Metzen gave it a shout out, PVP gear mattering again was nice, class design was an improvement over BFA, legendaries were fun and items with powerful passives like Vanilla should be a thing again (only issue was it cost gold) and Torg pre-nerf was actually a challenge, twisted corridors was top tier solo content as well.
Holy shit we're not even in dragonflight and you're already starting with this troll shit?
>umm ackshually having your single target raid damage be completely fricked because you picked the aoe dungeon covenant is a GOOD thing
>being forced to shell out dozens of thousands of gold every patch to make your legendary is a GOOD thing
>two of the worst raids we've ever had and 1 mediocre raid with really great aesthetic was GOOD
Shut the frick up
>>umm ackshually having your single target raid damage be completely fricked because you picked the aoe dungeon covenant is a GOOD thing
Unironically yes and only a moron would think otherwise. >nooo my choices shouldn't matter and everything should be perfectly equal, balanced and homogenized
>being forced to shell out dozens of thousands of gold every patch to make your legendary is a GOOD thing
You literally passively make that money in like, a week tops. PASSIVELY. You're fricking stupid. And yes, gear should cost money. Uses for money is a good thing.
>two of the worst raids we've ever had and 1 mediocre raid with really great aesthetic was GOOD
If you honestly think those raids were bad, then you must not have played WoW very long at all.
You reek of someone who has no idea what makes a game fun.
LMAO this homie defending shadowlands and talking about he knows what makes games """fun"""
This is why WoW will never die. Blizzard just has to release an even worse expansion and people will look on the last one with rose tinted glasses.
How much are you getting paid and where do I sign up?
This is the problem with WoW fans, bitter addicted people close to their 30's and can't just quit the game.
The fact you think Castle, Sanctum and First Ones are bad raids shows you are burned out bro, play a new game.
>i'm a contrarion, am i interesting yet!?
>haha imagine thinking for yourself what an idiot, you should just like <popular thing> like me
And contrarian is spelled with an a. You'll grow out of being an NPC at some point, little zoomie.
>t.
Keep posting basedjaks, it'll get funny any minute now and totally makes you look like you're not massively coping.
You are moronic, lmao. No one likes Torghast because the rewards are trash you only get currency to make legendaries that were only even added to sell WoW tokens. Covenants were trash until 9.2. Not only could not not swap them they literally limited how many times you could change your conduits, and they were class wide not spec wide meaning if you wanted to play more than 1 spec swap in a day you were fricked... and that's after you spent 100k on a fricking legendary just to play another spec. Castle Nathria was the only good raid, and all of the outdoor content was unbelievably bad. They tried to copy GW2 masteries with the upgrade in Zerith Mortis, but they missed the mark so far it's not even in the same universe.
You are memeing, but it is kind of true. WoW still shits on Lost Ark and FF14 because of dungeons, CURRENTLY the covenant systems are kind of okay in that they are basically a talent system you switch for free - but why did it take so long to implement that and why does it still require you to grind a bit for alts to be up to speed?)
pvp is literal trash and a hellscape where everyone is stuck in elo hell 1400 because half the playerbase have been boosted to glad level gear without the skill to continue, so anyone else trying to rise legitamitely had to face off against shitters with several tens of thousands of hp more than them. The difference between 1 tier in shadowlands for pvp gear was more significant than the difference between the first tier and the last of wrath of the lich king. You had new players getting one shot nonstop in bgs by arena players, which both had to que for because the new gear required honor to upgrade. They still use the newer inferior matchmaking system that has made climbing rank in arena near impossible. Druids were oneshotting people at range, from stealth, to the point where the first wow tournament became a surreal joke with the best glads in the game panicking and screaming run behind the pillar whenever a team had a druid and he popped out of stealth in boomkin form. And even after all the backlash and all the issues they barely nerfed them and they were still oneshotting people last i'd seen before I quit that trash game. And that's just the pvp, and I didn't even go into depth.
Wow is a literal shitheaped dumpster fire. It's not better than any mmo at this point. It's a disgrace to the genre. At least lost ark and even new world had some modicum of content, which can't be said for wow at this point
>1 and a half year without any new shit during the xpac.
any pvp gear scales to max ilvl in bg's and arenas now, its only shit outside of them
Great, so 2 years of literal dogshit during the expansion and then they change it at the end when it doesn't matter, big fricking whoop.
welcome to the blizzard patch cycle, where the feedback from alpha doesn't get patched in till 1year+ into the expansion
But that change does seem to solve the stuff that fricked you off
The Blizzard special!
>you have massive flaws in your beta, these need to be fixed
>WE KNOW BETTER. THINGS WILL LAUNCH AS IS.
3 patches later and a 15 months later
>WE ARE IMPLEMENTING CHANGES TO ISSUES WE HAVE IDENTIFIED WHICH SHOWED UP DURING THE BETA
Still remember how ret pallies were screaming at blizzard to rework them before shadowlands because their burst was too high and they knew they'd be nerfed later. Blizzard ignores them....then nerfs them later in the patch.
No that's wrong. You feel less fricked over with rank 1 honor or conquest gear, but there is still a gap.
>Rated PvP (Conquest) gear scales only up by 10-13 item levels in PvP situations. For instance, an item level 246 (Rank 1) gear piece would scale to item level 259, but a Rank 7 item level 275 gear piece would scale up in PvP by 10 item levels to item level 285.
>In War Mode, Arenas, and Battlegrounds, Unrated PvP (Honor) gear scales up by 17-36 item levels.. For example, an item level 203 (Rank 1) piece of Honor gear retains item level 203 in PvE, but scales to item level 239 in PvP. However, at higher ranks, the item level increase in PvP combat and War Mode decreases. If you upgrade Honor gear to rank 7 it will have item level 242 and only scale up by 17 item levels to item level 259 in PvP situations.
oh ok, i thought it fully scaled you
hopefully they change that in dragonflight
>The difference between 1 tier in shadowlands for pvp gear was more significant than the difference between the first tier and the last of wrath of the lich king
This is a massive issue with WoW in general that needs addressing. Stat inflation is fricking insane. I don't know where Ion got this moronic notion that the game has always been like this but that's 100% not true, gear did not use to have a fricking 20-30 ilvl difference every tier it's ridiculous.
Ilvl needs to be reduced across the board, the difference between each difficulty needs to be smaller.
Yeah no way is elo hell 1400, I can always get 1800 by myself starting with last patch's gear as shadow - usually in less than 100 games. I did disc this time around because the set bonus is good. I would say its a bit higher like in the 2000ish bracket.
Dragonflight PVP changes look really good, they just need to remove racials in rated PVP since Orc, Human and Nelf are broken
What is it, ten expansions now and yet you've still haven't learned to trust blizzard?
Oh there was much much more that fricked me off from the game, and even more now that i've left. Like watching an ex get addicted to fentanyl and become a street walker. I just mentioned pvp cause I still get pissed off about pvp when i remember it. They even brought their shitty new matchmaking into tbc classic.
All I know is when I quit, it was like putting you up against your dad when you were 9 and telling you "good luck".
still haven't learned to NOT trust blizzard*
in BFA they did item scaling/equalization in pvp, you had no idea what your damage actually was, or if increasing item lvl actually helped you or not. Everyone complained so in shadowlands they brought back item advantages in PVP with no hidden calculations - the damage you saw on the screen is what the opponent sees on his.
>lost ark
opinion discarded, no MMO does dungeons correctly as relevant end game content like wow does unfortunately. Can't believe you consider the mobile gaming time gated dungeons and daily chores in Lost Ark as content.
Those 3-4 dungeons better be really fricking good considering they're all you're gonna be running in mythic for nearly the next two years.
you mean 10 with 2 of them being a mega dungeon, and with a loot/scoring system to incentive doing them? Also with rotating affixes per week and a major one changing each season?
In Lost Ark and FF14 that literally does not exist. Dungeons are just a forgettable chore. Notice how you are not defending Lost Ark's content anymore. Haha.
Lets be honest here anon, mythic dungeons ARE a chore, and the rotating affixes are different status maluses or buffs, and actively disliked by a large portion of the community to the point of several types being avoided altogether paired with certaindungeons. Mythic dungeons are trash, and only there for people without the time to raid.
>I don't personally like mythic+ and some of the affixes aren't fun
is all you had to say
Infinitely scaling dungeons is way better than leaving them as dead content, it means there's always something optional you can decide to do or not
More games should take that core idea and iterate on it
XIV does it better. scaling content up until all forms of class design and balance shatter into pieces is foolish. Better set up the system that allows players to scale down and tackle content at the intended level.
Don't turn casual story content into some ball busting madness, keep that for ultimates instead and then separate ultimates from any kind of gearing and progression. Just you and your skill versus a super well tuned boss.

>Checking out any thread on /vg/
the mount and blade one is fine 🙂
you should see the wow thread when they actually talk about wow its like going to a funeral
There's also the Fortnite thread, which is just a bunch of furgays.
You should thank those trannies, they saved you from 100+ hours of the most boring shit imaginable before it 'gets good'.
It never gets good.
true the community is toxic but in a weird way different to WoW. Its like a creepy tsundere that cannot take rejection and is always accusing you of cheating and will threaten you to control you.
its actually quite sad how the community is like this. The community is very fanatical and it turns people off.
WoW was just dudebro like Halo with t bagging and never toxic.
FFXIV was for the first toxic community for me.
>WoW was just dudebro like Halo with t bagging and never toxic.
You really never touched wow lmao, ever since Cataclysm, doing dungeons is shit since you always get that guy that complains about the most mundane shit possible.
He quit because he even said himself he doesn’t like playing video games on stream now because he’s bad at then and enjoys react content more. It’s why all of his streams are just reacting an maybe an hour of ffxiv/new world/ wow or whatever else the casual meta is. I saw him play fall guys for awhile the other day. I’m sure the community didn’t help though
Stormblood is boring and a viewer repellent
>Streamer quits
Sounds like a based community
>not streamer quits life
close but no cigar
Guhh
This c@ has a weenie. I've seen it.
i erped with that cat and came in her ass
I thought he came back last week? Or did he quit again?
Got a massive melty over people falseflagging the shit out of him over at /wowg/.
>*quits FFXIV because the community is terrible*
>implying
>he doesn't know
/wowg/ won
Asmon lost
XIVgays saved
What happened? Earlier today he said he was going to keep going and even apologized for overreacting
The narrative is that FFXIVgays are annoying, flooding his reddit with FFXIV posts, and keep wanting to only play their game.
But the viewer numbers don't add up, he didn't get the big numbers like used to when he streamed FFXIV.
If you check /wowg/ you will see that it is actually ex-wow players that organized false flagging operation, pretending to be FFXIV players, even Asmon's mod (they did it for free) knew it.
>ffxiv players seething at /wowg/ falseflagging
p ironic ngl
>ffxiv players seething
if only
check /xivg/, they don't care.
they only care about ERP and IRL incest
>seething
no one is seething but asmon viewers, no one else wants the bald moron in the game
>viewer numbers don't add up
Oh so that's why he doesn't want to play it. Anything he says is just an excuse, this is the only reason. He must not be very smart if he thought it would get a ton of views again. FF14 is not the FOTM anymore.
The reality is the guy is incredibly mazed by wow and seeing the main competition take over his reddit scares the shit out of him. WoW has been slowly dying for years the passion the fans had for the game and the exhaustion for how poorly the devs treat it has taken its toll and it has difficulty attracting and retaining new players. A new expansion isn't far out and hardly anyone feels hyped at all.
Love it or hate it FF community does like their game and the game has been seeing nothing but steady growth since its demise during 1.0. Of course it ebbs and flows just like any MMO when content dries up but over all its just been doing better and better even before the great streamer exodus/grift. Even people who try FF and just quit have an attitude that the game is just not for them and that is it most the time.
Meanwhile wow fans are in a state of psychological trauma over the damn game regardless if they quit or not.
>Meanwhile wow fans are in a state of psychological trauma over the damn game regardless if they quit or not.
I mean to be fair I can see where they're coming from. My favorite multiplayer game of all time is Team Fortress 2.
The game has gone through some bad phases but it's almost 20 years old and a lot of people are burned on it. XIV is fresh for most normies while everyone has tried WoW.
false flagging is confirmed btw
>it's all an elaborate hoax
or redditors are just the biggest gays on the internet and in fact comprise very little of the actual population of the internet or games, I wonder
every day that passes "the annoying and vocal minority" this shadowy group of obnoxious fatlus's are proven to be real and in fact worthless
>announces he's going to play xiv for a several-hours-long stream
>plays the game for half an hour, spends the rest of the time doing other things
Yeah, I can imagine why people would be upset. Imagine you went to see a movie and they only play fifteen minutes of it before they switch the reel to dancing baboons in panties for the res of the 2h30m runtime.
Reminder that this is the only good thing that's been put into WoW in years.
gays burn in the lake of fire for all eternity.
Too bad it doesn't exist, like the rest of your fairy tale.
its cringe because it looks goofy because its made in the shitty nuwow Pixar artstyle
if youre making an incubus at least make him look masculine and attractive, give him a felguard physique, not this shit
Why not just take the Felguard model and rename it an Incubus if that's what you want? Incubi are the woman-seducing version of the Succubus, they have a figure and form to seduce women. Few women care about muscle-bound steroid freaks.

This community is too based for the MMO space
Asmon defended both Quin and this dude and now he's on the verge of doing literally the exact same thing
Only Preach.
Preach is the only WoW stowaway that made it.
How did Norf do it boys? Finished XIV, did pvp, started on the oldschool FF's as a whole.
He's much more powerful than Stinky bald skeleton, Mayoman, Liquit Max, Annie Autism Fuschia, Meltymancer... He's just too poweful..
Preach got benched from Mythic Sire because honestly hes not very good at the game and he doesn't want to play WoW anymore because of it.
It's not that he's bad it's just that modern WoW raiding sucks so much ass that there is no passion anymore. If he cared, he would try harder. This is the case for a majority of people at this point, it's the same reason WoW raiding has the lowest participation in the game's history.
Nobody raids anymore, nobody wants to raid anymore. It just fricking sucks. Most of the raids are just boring in general and every fight is so overdesigned and either significantly overtuned or undertuned for months. It's extremely unrewarding now too, you don't get shit for raiding, it's a waste of time compared to M+ and pvp.
You have points and raiding is almost pointless right now, but Preach did get benched due to his poor performance and he acted like an entitled manchild about it.
Can I get a QRD?
Preach performance is declining due to his age and WoW is getting more fast paced. He got benched and his guild told him they would carry him for the next kill, they decided they didn't want to carry him and disbanded.
Now we don't know internal politics but it's possible they were pissed at preach for being a dick but either way they probably didn't want to carry a guy who was almost 40 and clearly his reaction times have slowed down.
I'm pretty sure he wouldn't mind being benched for the first kill if his guild didn't disband before they even looted the boss while he was asleep
raiding is always pointless. there is no content to do except your raids, and the only reward is that you get higher dps to clear them faster.
I am curious, what do you mean by overdesigned though?
Every boss just has 40 different abilities/mechanics now it's so overkill. A lot of them are minor and insignificant so you barely even pay attention to them, as another anon said it's just 'busywork'. They have a few major mechanics you need to look out for and pay attention to, but at the same time you have 6 different timers going off on your screen for random bullshit while the boss is pulsing out passive aoe damage and shooting 100 small missiles that do minor damage while faint grey circles are appearing on the faint grey colored floor that explode for minor damage.
Shit's just dumb and chaotic now.
That sounds like it's really changed. Do you prefer the ff14 style where you focus on your rotation while avoiding a few major things?
Absolutely. WoW's combat feels more responsive and action-y but FF14's slower paced combat with simple mechanics and obvious tells makes for far superior gameplay in my opinion.
Wouldn't that make every single boss fight basically the same? My favorite thing about WoW is trying to figure out how to do the rotation while doing all the mechanics flawlessly. It makes every boss feel completely different. I remember old WoW I never even thought about when to use my CDs and just hit them on CD, but now you basically have to figure out when to use them
uptime strats are exactly what you describe
just follow your weak auras wow gay
*honk**honk*
They added text to speech into the WoW API no need to use such archaic noises anymore 🙂
Dunno, I feel the complete opposite of you. I used to have to plan the use of my cooldowns more carefully because they had longer cooldowns. Now every ability and cooldown is so short and tons of cooldowns get further reduced by other shit so you barely even need to think about them, just pop them asap and do it again as soon as they're up again.
Currently the best way to raid is to play WoW Classic lol. That's how bad it is on Retail.
>it's a waste of time compared to M+
I don't know what you're smoking. At least raiding gets you a unique mount that gets its drop rate lowered to 1% later, and they actually add a whole new raid every patch. All you get in m+ is a title no one gives a shit and that's only if you get top 0.1% and yea good luck with that. You're gonna be doing M+ constantly since the cutoff goes higher and higher every week. That combined with the fact that M+ is the same dungeons over and over, they add maybe 1 new dungeon over the expansion. They spend maybe like 1 day designing a new seasonal affix and then expect you to grind it every week for a frickin title.
What are you even talking about? Nobody fricking cares about the dumb mounts they can just solo farm later are you joking me?
I'm talking about actual gear you physically wear that is giving you stats and determining your damage/healing the whole patch, obviously.
I mean yeah you're right that it sucks to farm the same dungeons all expansion but just farming the same raid for months on end is not any different. I've raided for years i'm quite aware of this.
> Nobody fricking cares about the dumb mounts they can just solo farm later are you joking me?
Lmao. You are insane. I've made like 25 million gold selling those mounts to casuals.
nobody raids in wow anymore because you actually need a decent guild to raid heroics and do mythic consistently, which requires you to put some effort into building relationships and interacting with the community of said game which zoomers are incapable of doing
every single popular modern zoomer game is designed around a queue lobby you just press a button for
this all the guilds fell apart and everyone was looking for replacements at once. Which caused more people to leave and we now have some weird brain drain situation in that game. Good thing blizz did everything in its power to not test the raid and release another broken piece of shit that had to be nerfed while world first was progging it and nerfed again.
meanwhile FF just releases their shit and it works which is what most companies are usually able to do.
It's funny how easy balancing is when every class plays exactly the same, and every raid does the exact same mechanics.
Wow, a stack marker. How fresh
Is that a circular aoe around the boss? Ain't seen that before.
a p oximity based meteor? Woah!
Generic knockback into a death wall? Feeling daring today aren't we.
Add to that that every raid is JUST a circular or square platform...
Yeah it lacks the randomness and most importantly actual significant add mechanics. I think something like Mythic orgazoa in BFA has more add mechanics than anything in FF14, and you also get to run down an obstacle course in the transition.
>Add to that that every raid is JUST a circular or square platform
I could not get over this, one of the main reasons I will never play this game. Even GW2 puts that much effort into their raid bosses and only like 500 people in the world even do them.
I need to correct myself. I think for the first time they had a non circle/square platform in the current agaya raid. They added a hand platform!!!!
This, raids are only good when you pack as much random mechanics into an irregular arena as possible.
Try out Savage/Ultimate, they are both completely different in terms of mechanics.
Normal difficulty has been to a joke for years due to the fact that a lot of story players refuse to learn their class since all they want is the fricking story.
Also it's funny that deep dungeons are basically just simple mechanics like that, and yet they are tough as hell to solo. There are more players who clear ultimate DSR than people who clear on solo deep dungeons.
Lol. Lmao even. Your savage isn't even worth a reply
>more people clear ultimate
That's because this game a joke for babies. But nothing can help you against lmao invisible landmine you lose eat shit and start over.
Only shitters die to landmines, especially the ones who die to trap landmine and chest landmine setting off at the same time lmao.
Landmines are actually the best way to do clears on Healers by taking advantage of them, they also can save you countless times.
Post your Ultimate clears bro, they are easy aren't they?
savage is less dynamic than WoW raids by a long shot.
I dunno if I'd call it dynamic, wow bosses only target like 4/20 people at a time with mechanics so you just don't have to do anything a lot of the time. It's very static if you spend an entire fight not getting picked to do something
yes I too have raided molten core

>kaelthas birds, frontal cone

one boss in 2 years, whoa
Go do something like mythic jailer and tell me you're spending an entire fight not doing something
Why are you guys argueing about boss encounters when fight design isn't an issue in either game and lets players smoothly transition from one to the other with similar content that they like being available
The issue with FF14 is the issue that every single non-WOW mmo with the same gameplay style has: the movement feels like utter dogshit and the abilities aren't remotely responsive
Imagine trying to do something like a 3v3 arena or even duelling people in FF14 after taking for granted how solid and chunky WoWs core combat/movement feels
oh trust me you get to see just how dogshit the system is in the current pvp
>pvp
every time
it's trash just accept it
>confusing balance with movement/combat feel
Are you this assblasted that you can't have fun with pvp in FF14 because the issues are directly in the core system level and will never ever be fixed?
>movement
>combat feel
>when you die in 0.1 seconds
yoo this corpse run movement is LIT
Personally found the movement issues disappear when you use legacy controls. It's actually really fricking nice to have your character turn instead of back peddle as well.
>no comeback besides getting merc'd by an overgeared rogue
cry more homosexual
If any other 'wow killer' in history bothered to actually copy the shit that mattered (combat/movement feel) instead of superficial mmo bullshit WoW would have been forced to close down by now
Stationary feeling combat is ass, and even mmo's that try to give you a roll frick up the beginning and ending frames so you freeze in place for a split second
>can't accept that the game is unbalanced and unfun
you're the one crying
You've been screaming this from the rooftops since 2004, cry more gay
yet the incompetent devs haven't done anything about it and pvp is still a minigame with very minimal participation because of it
sad!
This is the kind of funny thing about WoW and FF14. The engines allow for WoW to have better feeling combat so all combat gameplay is much more enjoyable while FF14's combat is more clunky and slow so combat gameplay feels more stationary.
FF14 on the other hand does everything else in their game world and engine very well. Mini games are fricking amazing in FF14 and feel completely natural, responsive, and snappy like the roller coaster shooter. Whereas in WoW all other non-combat gameplay tends to suck cause the engine is old and wonky as shit. Minigames in WoW feel awful, just piloting vehicles feels like total dogshit, all the minigame world quests like the beach turtles and even bejeweled all feel clunky as frick.
>FF14 on the other hand does everything else in their game world and engine very well. Mini games are fricking amazing in FF14 and feel completely natural, responsive, and snappy like the roller coaster shooter.
I mean, he isn't wrong. Have you seen how clunky the new dance minigame in wow looks?.
Not to mention Torghast feels like shit compared to XIV Deep Dungeons.
Deep dungeons feels like shit and isn't fun. Hell torghast is shit too BUT you can run around like in risk of rain with funny upgrades.
Every minigame in XIV (besides triple triad but it's just borrowed from VIII) is a huge failure. Especially LoV. I still miss the rage over LoV back at it was released.
sounds like you're a massive shitter who plays games on Easy and cheats enabled.
>Deep dungeons feels like shit and isn't fun. Hell torghast is shit too BUT you can run around like in risk of rain with funny upgrades.
Try to solo Deep dungeons, it's another fricking game when managing your items efficiently even on the strongest classes. Torghast is a massive fricking joke.
>Every minigame in XIV (besides triple triad but it's just borrowed from VIII) is a huge failure.
He says this while Gold Saucer is always packed with people. Mahjong is fun as hell as well.
>He says this while Gold Saucer is always packed with people.
because of the easy mgp gates
>Especially LoV
Black person, Verminion is the most skill based content in this game.
It was a big failure and the forum, reddit and even Ganker was in full rage about it
Of course they did, it takes a very high IQ to fully enjoy LoV, I'm happy with my practically uncontested 150k weekly MGP though.
The people who made WoW didn't think the B-team would add vehicles and gimmicks in it.
I dont necessarily agree about FF14 having good minigames, but do agree that you can absolutely see the parts of WoW designed from the beginning vs jank ducttaped on by the B-team like the vehicle system
I think the WoW raids are too hard and it breaks guilds when they wipe to Halondrus 100 times, then casual Mythic + players who do their weekly 15 (and not even time it half the time) eventually catch up to your item level anyway.
WoW has way more competition for a persons time these days, so many F2P games, streaming, netflix, etc, why waste time wiping to a boss for 3 hours when you can go watch some shit on netflix and play genshin impact on your phone.
yeah the loot and the drop chances are abysmal, shame. Blizzard can make fun fights, but its all a waste if the loot is shit.,
Preach is also just way more entertaining to watch.
He's actually shit at games though, the amount of times he got turned around in FF X's hallway maps and still doesn't seem to have figured out he can see enemies' remaining health with sensor.
But hey, Lulu Booba.
kinda envy with his FC creativity ngl
Preach is a professional grifter and will suck the wiener that gives him the most juice. Which for now is ff14. He barely played the game and already filled his room with ff14 merch.
Dude is a swindler. He didn't swap to ff14 because wow bad. He swapped to it because he bad, and got benched for raiding, so he moved to the mmo for babies and women.
By being a calm and rational human being. People can understand if someone doesn't enjoy a game as long as they don't have a histrionic meltdown, start moronic drama, or make up lies. The sad fact is most twitch streamers have more estrogen in them than actual trannies.
People want to watch Preach because he's going through the older FF games to understand all the references and he's genuinely an entertaining guy that doesn't fake his reactions to please people. I liked watching Pyro do MSQ but I tuned out because of his almost constant malding. Apparently he's gotten better about that but he sits at like 300 viewers now while Preach regularly gets around 2-3k playing FFX.
Lmao what an actual fricking loser
>all that moronic shit in the background
Fricking hell does this homie create a shrine for every game he pretends to like or something lmao
I think its less the community than it is the fact that all the relevant streamers pidgeon hole themselves in what is essentially a visual novel + hardcore raiding video game. When the story part dries up and the raids are too boring/hard to do for stream content they go insane.
That's why Preach is the only one succeeding at this point because he just does some FFXIV for an hour then does old FF playthroughs.
Zepla's numbers have plummeted too because all she does is play XIV. During a content drought.
its always been like this for zepla but she released more youtube content back in shadow bringers talking about different things with the game or community. her life is upended right now and she might be out of ideas.
Most of these streamers seem to be bumbling baboons incapable of pivoting. The opportunity of a lifetime literally falls onto your lap and they do nothing about it, fading back into obscurity and losing who knows how much in potential revenue
yeah good for him, im liking his ff10 playthrough, holy frick I didnt remember it to be that goofy.
I stopped playing FFXIV because I tried to juggle all of the crafting jobs and I'm an irredeemable hoarder. I ran out of bank space, and the concept of renting more bank space with real money fricking appalls me, so I just stopped there.
>average streamer watchers
>parasocial up the ass, will probably die for their fav streamer.
>ffxiv players
>tune-in to watch streamers' reaction to their badly written soap opera JRPG
>once the main story is done, they dumb the streamers like a used prostitute, back to ERP'ing.
kinda based ngl
I don't even get why anyone wants to watch him react to the MSQ. Dude could barely muster an emotion for his own mother's death and they think he's gonna give a shit when Seto and Ardbert reunite.
He seemed to show a lot of emotion when Sephirot came rising up from the depths for the second phase of the fight.
He'll waggle his eyebrows and cover his mouth, then make some sort of shitty joke, before commenting on how that was really nice, something about birdboi.
Dude's reactions are so manufactured I could literally tell you in minute detail exactly how he'll react to something and be right 90% of the time.
people still watch preach though? their problem is nobody makes it worth continuing to watch them stream past that point.
People still watch Preach because not only does Preach genuinely enjoy the game, he's going back and playing older FF games because of it, which makes him better than like 90% of XIV players
Remember when Rich said he would play some classic FF games and then didnt bother to even clear the EX trials?
There is a reason why despite the low twitch view numbers, FFXIV is one of the most discussed games out there. It gets contant threads here on Ganker every single day and it's the second most popular game on twitter just below Genshin.
FFXIV players just don't give a shit about Twitch, which is funny since most games communities out there of recent games worship streamers as gods.
It's because most people who like FFXIV are too busy playing the fricking game to watch people play the game
erp'ing is not gameplay.
It's also not watching Twitch streams
>Keep posting ba - ACK!!!
>finds any excuse he can to not play the game despite telling everyone he does what he wants
This.
He makes a big fanfare about returning to streaming XIV, does 5 hour intros and plays a single MSQ for an hour. The next day Dragonflight preorders go out and he spends the whole stream talking about that and not playing XIV. Then the viewers who returned to watch him for more XIV content are angry/disappointed, big surprise. What did he expect would happen?
That only proves the FFXIV cult is dangerous and insane.
>advertise product
>don't deliver product
>customer angry
Not seeing the dangerous/insane part of this.
being held accountable for your actions is very dangerous for liars

Who was the eceleb who went into a tirade about Viera being worse than Hitler and then followed it with an even bigger tirade at the people who didn't agree with him?
Taliesin. The biggest WoW shill left to the point that he literally prefaces every single thing he says these days with "btw I'm not a shill but..."
Also he acts like an alien pretending to be a human. Never before have I seen such weird behaviour from a person who wasn't in a documentary about serial killers.
Did any of the elf women in WoW ever trigger him like that?
hard to get boners from N64 models/textures
anyone paying attention would've seen this coming from miles away, dude spent half a year stalling, constantly pushing it back as the lowest priority.
He doesn't have any desire to play XIV
That pyro guy got a 10 day ban and starts comparing it to the death sentence and banning everyone
who?
Banned from Twitch or XIV?
Got banned from XIV for using mods, felt he was entitled to use them for being a streamer and angry at the community for reporting him to Square Enix.
I know he had another melty recently over doing raids, did he call out people based on their ACT performance or something?
This, or new?
Did he get banned though? I thought he had a melty about OTHER streamers getting banned.
he didn't get banned, that's why it was so fricking crazy how much of a meltdown he had over it. also considering he's only been playing the fricking game for less than a year but coming across so invested/knowledgeable about the history of them and addons...just so crazy.
Watch the ShB scene where Urianger introduces the elements at the fairy house. It's pretty funny how triggered he gets for not understanding things.
Addons are life itself to WoW players, they can't even do anything at level; one without an addon telling them how to do it in the absolute fastest way.
100% started playing wow first time in classic. Went to dungeons and everyone was absolute moron. Uninstalled and tried again in tbc with couple of friends. Every random player we got into our dungeon party was so bad that there was literally no reason to go as a 5man party and we just did most dungs as 3 or 4. Horrible fricking experience except for the RP with randos
smaller streamers need to stream every day or their viewers forget they exist and jump onto someone else.
To someone who just bought a house with cash gotten from his 15 mins of fame it basically is a death sentence, he's gonna end up penniless and have to get a real job.
He went from 13k subs to 6k to 1k
what was the november 2021 spike?
got a clip?
thank fricking god because this psycho eyed homosexual is a detriment to every game he touches. stay the frick away from my favorite game, stick to WoW, your cancerous troony blm loving game.
the community hates him and that is based as frick because you need to be a braindamages subhuman to enjoy any of this grifters content. You can keep him wowtroons
Man, Dragonflight looks like it's gonna be kino, but for all the wrong reasons. Can't fricking wait for the meltdowns.
Nothing screams "this will be amazing" like hiring 100 new people 5 months before the promised release date after a massive employee drain/exodus.
They will work on the next expansion, the current expansion is done and just needs QA testing.
Damn, I wish had a Rabi for this bussin post fr fr
WoW gonna be bussin this year, no cap

go home rabi
What's blowing my mind the most is with how small/strict their timetable is how the frick are they not drip feeding previews? We haven't seen a talent tree since they showed druid/DK. Where the frick are the rest? You can't even show us some current mock ups?
I think they're banking on some sort of show of support from gay communities for their alphabet twitter pandering along with the dragqueen class with all the new expansion content
The "new" talent trees just the current talents put into a conduit tree with being able to allocate some points into them.
There is really not much work to be done there, they showed off Druid/DK because Grabby hands/Conbroke are the only cool abilities they have added since 2008
I dunno, making a tank talent tree where their defensives are optional to take requires a lot of mental gymnastics to justify how fricking stupid it is
Gonna end up with talent inspections and people getting kicked for not running the right talents at this rate, meaning the metashittery is going to get worse than it ever has been and the amount of choices are going to be artificially restricted to the point where these "trees" are going to be a straight line or else you won't get invited to shit.

What do you mean? As in using him for easy money or something specific?
I am just repeating what I heard. lol
wowbucks said OTK is siphoning his money to fund fail projects, one after another.
The issue isn't FFXIV, but that he just does reaction videos.
I'd struggle to call him a video game streamer anymore. More accurate to call him a react streamer that sometimes happens to play a video game. XIV just so happened to be the best game to push the blame on right now.
This
He hasn't really cared about games that much since he massively hyped himself up for Classic thinking it would change his life, then he ruined it for himself by rushing to max level and being funnelled gear and gold.
Reminder that Asmon does not like video games: he likes WoW. Anyone who played WoW but also likes other games knows exactly the type of person I am talking about.

>they also cut of miquote ears too now. they have gotten EVEN LAZIER
Fricking good. I god damn hate how ears deform every fricking headpiece in FF14.
all they have to do is have them pop over them. Which hats have been "deformed" by showing ears?
Get fricked furries
When is the next sale? I want to buy the school glam to cosplay as Door kun.

have a nice day
I like him oddly enough
A lot of people seem to take everything he says literally itt
However I don't watch much of the react stuff and tune in if he's playing a game I find interesting during work
I enjoy his content on things that hes actually knowledgable about like WoW
Anything he doesn't know about he's a straight midwit that thinks hes the smartest person in the room though so the jokes stop landing
Did he even play xiv? He "came back to xiv!" and then did 5-6 hours of watching videos, 1 hour of roulettes/gold saucer/looking at cosplay and maybe 1 hour of actually progressing story.
If you re familiar with the game he is somewhere in the ruby sea and that isn't far.
XIVsisters we can't stop fricking losing. Dragonflight release will fricking bury us for good, I've been so anxious lately I can't even sleep and ERP.
PIMP PIMP
I can't believe that out of all the WoW gays who tried XIV its Norf(Preach) who ended up loving it the most. Not only that, but he's actually playing every single FF now.
Its fricking wild man, something I never expected to happen
To be honest preach has been a fan of WoW and Blizzard even longer than Asmon and co. He probably feels the most disgusted by how fast Blizz has gone downhill. Not to say his experience has been completely more different than Asmons as he was honest from the get go with his fans.
Preach is an adult he has a wife and kids and even has an office and interacts with his employees he has other things in life. Asmon lives in a run down house he absolutely has the money to clean and fix with little else but WoW and failed games like new world he wanted to be good.
at least he has some friends in real life even if some are parasites.
His best bro Cody beat his wife senseless and went to jail.
source?
have a nice day
thats my source
frick off back to /r asmongold
You can probably ask for the source on wowg, I saw the news article a while ago. It happened a long time ago.
>Gets kicked from raiding cuz he was always a garbage ass moron and they can't carry him
>suddenly
>WOW BAD FF14 GUD
Yeah, i like how he has an office and all. It really drives the point home that this is his job, and he takes it seriously. If he says he's playing FFX today, he will, and it's on schedule unless something comes up. Asmon just wants to react to vids and play whatever game he fancies that day.
truth be told if it was me I would do it at home in some spare bedroom but maybe office space is cheap where he lives. Or maybe he had too many interruptions
He did use to do it at home, but he wanted to upgrade to an office so him and his employees could be together working in one space.
I know but his numbers are not huge but consistent and I would live in constant fear my time as a streamer would dry up some day. Things change people like watching people stream games not but it could lose popularity for something else.
Preach is old enough to remember Totalbiscuit's advice.
Stream yourself, not a game.
People who live on fotm hype and playing the hot game risk losing their audience when interest dies or the game goes to shit. People who stream themselves instead have a much more stable time.
There are plenty of streamers now who have 10+ years on consistent viewership.
Me personally, I hate working from home, I like that separation of work and home and having an office space lets me focus.
Watch Jeathe, an actual WFR cry his ass off and compare FF to wow.
It was fun during the Ryne and Thancred farewell but got actually pretty depressing when he couldn't even talk during werlyt. Dude must've seen some shit when he was a lawyer.
I can't even imagine having fun playing vidya then all of a sudden you get PTSD flashbacks of interviewing catatonic kids at the hands of their rapist fathers.
>Took a break to spend some time with his daughters after haurchefant died and he watched Edmont break down
It's these small moments that make me appreciate him. He just seems like a genuinely nice guy.
Do you guys think he's got a deal with Blizzard in some way?
I mean, it was weird the way he was promoting Diablo Immortal when it released by whaling.
Then before that he's been hyping up the wet fart that is Dragonflight as if it was the return of WoW, you can make him mad if you talk shit about it.
Is it a contract or just his schizo persona coming out?
No he's just an idiot and actiblizz consoomer.
no he's just invested in blizzard despite all the signs saying that's a bad idea
after his mom died the only thing he knows left in his life is his booger wall, his alarm clock rat corpse and WoW.
The only way we can know for sure is if he plays Genshin someday.
Blizzard is his master one way or another so he whales and so Is amazon thus the lost ark and more weirdly new world praise.
gee I dunno it's not like Asmon went from the dev team saying they hate him and denying him from being part of the community council to suddenly him having an interview with Ion.
Nah, he's just a standard Blizzdrone. I know a couple myself and they always come crawling back to play whatever slop the company shits out. It's a miserable existence but they keep doing it.
He grew up on wow
I grew up on RS and understand. Phases of hating it and wanting it to be good again. RS is a little different and will never be good again though but if you say that I might get mad at you sometimes
I am sure at some point he did but they dropped him. That being said he's still a blizzardrone. I mean he can surely afford to be one alongside OTK. Also even if you don't have a deal with them twitch and developers offers bounties. Immortal and any new game that comes out with hype usually has one.
No, you're being the schizo. He didn't whale in diablo he spent like $2000 that was just him being a moron because he now has more money than he'll ever actually spend so he's being a frivolous homosexual. He's spent way more in lost ark cause he actually likes that game. Diablo whaling takes tens of thousands.
He has hope for dragonflight because it's the first time since legion that they're actually doing things differently. Yeah it'll probably be shit but it's legitimately the first time in 6+ years you can say it maybe it won't.
this is the first time in 6+ years they announced the expansion and are going to release it in 6 short months. This is going to make BFA look like Elden Ring
It's a short date for sure, but they abandoned shadowlands early which they haven't done since WoD and there are less bullshit systems being made so it's not that crazy.
Blizzard got fricked by covid hard since they are in California.
I hope they get dragon riding right... but I'm scared that even if it's fun as frick the autismo playerbase is going to hate it because it's not noclip like normal flying is
If i didn't play GW2 then I probably would like whatever they come up with. Blizz is not going to do anything interesting like implement races/obstacle courses using the mounts.
I think they paid for him after he interviewed YoshiP.
They went from "This guy is an butthole" to inviting him on to speak with Ion.
>Do you guys think he's got a deal with Blizzard in some way?
No, he's just an addict and Blizzard is the dealer.
He does nothing but shit on Immortal. Now he wants Ted Cruz to make it illegal to sell stuff in video games because only big daddy government can save him from FOMO. He also made some stupid comment about abortion recently.
What I'm saying is, he isn't a paid shill or even a Blizzard fan. He's just a streamer with no shame that never misses a chance to expand his business.
this. he's just a fricking shit goblin that got lucky and wants to make more money.
Buy why? He doesn't spend any of it.
greed perhaps? lust for money? perhaps bouncing from being on welfare to riches has left his mind in this state.
What the frick is an andy
it's basically the twitch equivalent of "npc"
Zoomer version of gay aka a FFandy is a FFgay
andy is the asmon suffix replacement for gay on Ganker
FFgay
FFandy

Twitch Equivalency of X-gay, X-Black person you see here on Ganker.

Why are you all posting here instead of fishing for Aquamaton? This b***h has an uptime window of 1.2%, do you already have it or something?
Exactly that's what I thought. Now get to fishing, gays.
He can't even have another meltie and "Take a break" because he's contracted to shill both the OW2 twitch event and Dragonshite alpha.
All this metrics are tanking, lost over 10k subs this month, average views has dropped by 20k concurrent.
his subs and views are way overinflated from his depp trial bullshit. dunno how he thought reading the internet for 5 hours a day is going to keep the same level of subs
So the dude just doesn't want to play your game for whatever reason and that makes you butthurt? XIVies you fricking serious?
It's more like bait and switch makes people mad.
See
he doesn't want to play the game, but he also wants the game's audience to be regulars on his stream at the same time
They're annoyed because he keeps teasing them like a cheap prostitute. If he was honest about it nobody would give a shit.
Still cringe either way but they're not as moronic as you're strawmanning them to be.
Nobody on the xiv was butthurt tho, while his stream was on flames everyone on the xiv side was cooming to Alphinauds mother. It was just /wowg/ trying to get him angry lol.
Damn this b***h is hot. A literal housewife built for NTR.
>literally tells you to give her outfits that will make her husband blush
THEY KNOW
If we are going by the game events. He hasn't touched her in a good while. No wonder she's wanting pipe. I am actually surprised S-E went for it. I was convinced it'd be someone else
>built for NTR
kys
>Being this stupid
She's married. No matter how you spin the story it is NTR. If you want to frick her then you'd be cuckolding the husband. Are you two mentally challenged?

More like false flagging by his chat and the wow reddit community. Asmon is just milking it since he didn't get much attention when he came back. Go to the XIV reddit or the balance not as much people give a frick about him coming back. He fumbled the bag and is acting victim now.

>is constantly muting himself and going off screen and either snorting coke or hacking up a lung
>desperately tries to convince everyone, and himself, that he is the picture of perfect health
His days are numbered.
Is he really doing coke off the table?
That or hacking up a lung.
>He still has some missing teeth but his remaining ones are a lot cleaner now + fillings/caps.
Won't last long with his chronic soda addiction
If he's brushing regularly now it's fine. I drink soda regularly and don't have any dental issues, I even had room for my wisdom teeth. If not then yeah, they're fricked.
>has a mouth of literal rotten teeth
He actually went to the dentist and got this fixed. He still has some missing teeth but his remaining ones are a lot cleaner now + fillings/caps.
He can't even enjoy games anymore because he is so fricking shit at them and gets self conscious. Also snorts some serious copium.
>uhh DOOOOD raiding is boring its just waiting for the dumbest player in your raid to figure it out haha
>he literally gets carried in everything he does that is not a random PUG group from his chat
>He can't even enjoy games anymore because he is so fricking shit at them
His Dark Souls stream were the best.
>got filtered so hard in DS1 he was going to quit at firelink until mcconnel held his hand
>used Vordt's Great Hammer crutch for the entirety of DS3
>2nd playthrough of DS3 he used the mod that added a ton of new gear, still used Vordt's Great Hammer crutch
>got filtered so hard by Abyss Watchers that he threw a tantrum and rage quit, banning everyone who made fun of him
>got filtered by Elden Ring early on and threatened to quit multiple times
If it was cinders they made the bosses pretty moronic in that mod in his defence
Like not even fun since it's all the same moves but now they do 80% of your health and combo in faster and have inflated HP
It wasn't the mods fault, it was his for being an unga bunga moron doing nothing but running at Abyss Watcher and R1. He even admitted that he doesn't know how to do the fight because he got lucky on his first try in his first playthrough.
Its kind of his fault, he made a big deal about being bothered by chat making fun of him dying, so it becomes an even bigger thing because now people know it makes him insane. It affects viewership of any 'hard' game he is going to play because people don't like watching people you have to coddle and walk on egg shells around.
you forgot the dead rat clock

Also I dont understand why he (and other streamers) got famous for being shut ins video game goblins are trying to turn around and act like their opinions on politics are decent, they are unironically more detached from reality than the average millionaire and yet their fans accept everything they say as truth
Because they look relatable, and that is the most important thing for zoomers right now. Even if they are living in a giant house.
The funniest part about all this is, if wow attracts new players theres a very big chance they are xiv players wanting to try out the competition
I quit because the questing and the story are so fricking dull and its just instanced queue popping like any MMO in the last 15 years except GW2
Did he actually quit or like is he stopping the playthrough to continue later? If he actually quit thats the best news I heard today. Aether is saved hopefully all his fanboys are also quitting
He'll never admit to quitting, his ego is that fragile and he uses it to bait people for drama.
He'll never admit to quitting because that will lose him viewers. He has made it clear multiple times that all he cares about is viewer numbers and money.
This
It's the same as teamfourstar taking like 2 years to admit they were not making DBZA anymore.
no he is just whining about drama he himself is fueling. He said he is going to play the game when he wants to and how he wants to. So expect more of the same or even less.
Im sure he will quit again to go play some blizzard shit for them and take a long break,
wasn't there a thread whining about the community using this image yesterday
there are multiple threads EVERY DAY crying about this game or the community
mmo's all have shit communities i dont seriously understand why anyone would think otherwise
Good fricking riddance please never come back
Kek, he blames FF fans but it's really Asmongold fans who like FF.
NO OTHER STREAMER HAD THESE ISSUES
No dood that's not true I saw people complain about Rich's endless stalling too dood.
There's a huge overlap in communities.
This character looks so fricking gay it completely kills any interest i might have had in the game.
>community terrible
how would anyone know? nobody ever says anything. there's no general chat or trade trade and if i stand around in the middle of any major city it is dead silent.
the core community of the game have already finished the MSQ and are doing sexual RP, housing, or raiding - and recently even PVPing.
>says he will be playing FFXIV
>completely skips the game for a week
>says he loves the game
>bans people that remind him
How does he do it bros?
by dropping his viewers like today
He has to say he loves it. If he never did that interview with yoshi-p you can be sure he would be trash talking the game and its community like no tomorrow. That one single interview is forcing him to stay silent because he was given the hospitality of a king by the dev team.
it really was a master move by Yoshida, wasn't it?
He was given an interview by the game director of World of Warcraft too, Ion Hazzikostas.
He still rips on WoW and Blizzard.
>He still rips on WoW and Blizzard.
He cooled off on that a lot recently.
What was the last thing he criticised about the game?
The wow dev team literally said they hate asmongold you disingenuous frick. It isn't the same at all. One interview was given because the dev team liked the guy and the other was a desperate attempt to regain players.
>He still rips on WoW and Blizzard.
And yet he happily throws thousands of $ at Diablo Immortal and refuses to unsub from WoW even though he doesn't play it.
He always wants to be known as a wow streamer, if he said he quit he knows someone else would move in where he was.
He inadvertently admitted that he still subs just so he can log in once a month so he retains guildmaster status in his guild. That, and he would never quit WoW no matter how bad it is due to sunken cost and massive viewer losses.
Simple. He doesn't actually WANT to play video games anymore. 90% of his streams are just watching other people's videos at this point.
Did he really jump on to XIV, steal all the players women, and then leave? No wonder they're seething
>women
lol
There's actual loads of women playing this game.
All I want to do is stretch out some tight lala pussy.
Is that too much to ask?
Its actually pretty ironic because Stormblood is where I quit too. I came back three years after that though. Something about that place just sucks. Shadowbringers was way more entertaining and I only found out about that three years after the fact
Why is leveling in FF14 so fricking painful
dungeons are short and utterly brainless, and the queues are very long for most classes.
that's one of the reasons
I never said hard, I said painful, painfully boring
How would you make it more fun?
Make quests more than just walk from point A to point B.
Or do shit like Guild Wars 2 does and realize quests are fricking horrible and boring and do not encourage cooperation in an MMO setting and therefore are shit
If you think Guild Wars 2 does anything right I have a hard time taking your opinion seriously.
Also I thought you were talking about leveling?
Who is using quests as their primary source of exp in FFXIV?
The world vs world pvp and some of the mount ideas/related content is unique to that game. But it feels like the way they put the rest of the content together is lacking alot. They technically have 'good' raids and dungeons but noone can figure where to do them.
GW2 is an absolute failure of a game why would anyone get ideas from it
You say that (and you're right) but blizz is literally copy pasting their gryphon mount for dragonriding.
>best thing you can say about your MMO is that it has a cool mount
Sad.
I'd argue GW2 has a lot more going for it than most people know because it just had a crappy launch marred by 50 game design ideas that got left in the game that should've been cut like underwater combat
It's fixed basically all of it but no one gave it another chance, Heart of Thorns is still one of the best expansions ever put into any game
GW2 has the same issue as ff14, the movement/combat is stiff and feels awful, not even the dodge roll can save it.
I wish I could walk into every game studio as they were first working on their wow killer and bonk them on the head
WoW can't even handle 40 people fighting the open world, I saw 50 vs 50 in world vs world with no lag regularly. WoW is absolute shit outside of instanced content.
not him but if i could have something like a reworked torghast with more variety in any game where i could level through roguelike dungeons i wouldn't even notice i hit the level cap
so just like every MMO in existence but I guess it's only bad IN XIV vecause this is the 6th thread today crying about this game
Questing, and leveling in FF14, gets a harder pass because it's a bigger game with a bigger budget, and it's arguably the most recent MMO on the market that still is leading the charge.
I mean, the fact that so little is different from it and WoW and the games are like what, 10+ years apart? That's pathetic in my book.
FF14 1.0 was definitely a better idea than what we got after.
>FF14 1.0 was definitely a better idea
I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're trolling, rather than being completely moronic.
It had much more forward thinking ideas than whatever FF14 has now, FF14 is just a wow clone through and through. 1.0 may have been a laggy buggy mess but you're a fricking moron if you think it wasn't more creative.
Lolwhat leveling is piss easy in XIV
