Seriously, some of you need to dial it back a bit.
 
Was wanting to ask; anyone have any history of dealing with the roleplay community on FFXIV? Haven't exactly interacted with them much myself, so I don't have anything; any horror stories you want to share?
I believe Zeke and I have shared our previous horror stories in dealing with the XIV roleplay community ITT already.

Although lately it's just a general trashfire of lazily written characters who are designed with no other motivation but to fuck other people's characters.
 
FFXIV trigger warning list.
XIV players are some of the most terminally triggered and offended people I’ve seen online. They’re constantly screaming about whatever plot points that cross their mind due to their terrible reading comprehensions seeing offensive material everywhere. One of the few good things about XI’s community is that it is pretty much free of these people. Let’s hope XI’s community stays that way.
>Eulmore is indian coded and its also bad that they remind niggers of racism
Ah yeah, the extremely Indian inspired strip clubs

>forgot to mention that implied sexual assault happens as early as Sastasha

HP Lovecraft is another "problematic" creative that I'm sure these retards lapped up the memes and everything else in droves. Joss Whedon is now haram, but these retards have no issues lapping up the MCU house he built or fondly looking back on Buffy or Firefly (probably because his sins 'only' constituted misogyny. Weird how that sort of acceptance tends to run parallel with troons. Many such cases!)
Lovecraft gets a pass because... ... ... I think it was Netflix. They took his work and I don't think there's a single white person in a show they did that bares his name. Only people who may have read his books and other shit knew how he felt about February Americans. And good luck asking the recent AI bot about his cat, since it can't say the dreaded nigger-word, it said he didn't have one.

I believe my first response was "Who the fuck just casually calls someone 'kitten'? That's fucking weird."
*dramatic tone* Listen here, stalker-child!

Thanks for this; needed a good laugh.

Seriously, are the snowflakes in the XIV community this fucking fragile? It's actually pathetic!

You know how progressives on Twitter will report you for perceived infractions; not that you really did say the nigger word or anything, just that your avatar looks like it would and thus you're guilty. Same shit applies, but the FF14 mods are more heavy handed than the Twitter mods.

I got sent to Eorzean prison for telling someone to play right or get kicked, because I'm not gonna spend an hour of my life at the first boss of a basic dungeon. No matter how many times I explained the mechanic, dude would go fucking stupid and wipe us. So after the third time, repeat the mechanic, tell him to get it right or get kicked. So he left in a huff, then at the end of the dungeon I get pulled into prison to have a talk about my aggressive harassment towards another player.

FF14 are fucking snowflakes, and any sense of self that deviates from the hivemind may as well be a fucking blast furnace.

Short answer: Yes.

You must be new to the XIV community. I envy your ignorance.

That's because the GM stance on that is to either votekick or just abandon and eat the penalty.

Trust me, I dealt with the same exact thing back during ARR regarding a shitter tank who refused to tank because he thought we were too "undergeared" for Brayflox Normal and demanded we abandon first. The GM who answered my report about said tank was eventually convinced after several minutes of back and forth between us to talk the tank into leaving, but straight up told me next time to just take the abandon penalty because "a 30 minute timeout is better than waiting for almost an hour on an uncooperative tank and a GM to address the issue."

I've seen similar behavior on the forums; one poor bastard admitted to how much he enjoyed Endwalker's story, and the responses made it sound like the community was planning on murdering him for disagreeing with their opinions.

Short answer: Yes.

Not quite new, but I do tend to avoid dealing with in general, so... same difference, really. I've dealt with some snowflake shit before - I think the worst was a healer and dps (a Hroth and Lala, I believe) doing some ERP shit in a dungeon run - but even I was surprised by just how fucking retarded the community is.

It boggles my mind how they come to such bizarre conclusions. I'm also wondering if this was their first Final Fantasy because the series has roots in being inspired by Indian/Arabic aesthetics.

bunch of abbos triggered over Square showing interest in their culture. Imagine if Japan sued anyone for using kimonos without consulting them
I had no idea a culture could be copyrighted. If they think players who wear the outfit is erasure, I don't think they would like the fact I knew of their existence because of a Simpsons joke.
 
Speaking of the trigger warning card we also get the usual “goblins are obviously a Jewish stereotype.” There’s nothing offensive about their design and I always thought they were more like an Italian Mafia than anything.

I’m just concerned that the dev team will eventually cave in to these people and start sanitizing the game’s storyline and hiring “sensitivity readers.” I wonder if the reason there’s so much plot armor lately is due to players getting upset over npc deaths. I wouldn’t be surprised if the writers were not allowed to kill any major npcs anymore.

Do all mmo communities have this terrible issue with reading comprehension and being unable to distinguish between fantasy and reality? Or is it uniquely a XIV thing?
 
Even though I’m a fan of Final Fantasy and I’m interested in FFXIV and I want to play it, the community is a turn off.

That’s like Russians getting mad about a game adding a track suit and adidas.
Now if she can get out of my server and take her 'coomunity' with her that'd be just fantastic, thanks.

Speaking of the game with the greatest community btw, I lifted this from plebbit.

If it makes you feel better, I don't really see things like this on a regular basis and they reworked the game where you could play it solo so having to deal with other people has been reduced down to even fewer quests.

Calling Goblins antisemetic is beyond insane. These rabid gender specials must have confused the Harry Potter goblins with Final Fantasy goblins, because this is what FF goblins look under the mask. They can't say "well Hobgoblins--" nono, they explicitly stated the Illuminati which means the Source goblins not the First's hobgoblins with disfigured, exposed human-like faces. In their seething rage towards JK Rowling, they forgot not all goblins are the same.
