Asmongold calls out FFXIV \u2018purists\u2019 who claim he secretly hates the game Square Enix \/ Twitch: AsmongoldAsmongold called out FFXIV \u2018purists\u2019 who claim he secretly hates the game, explaining that he doesn\u2019t need their approval and he doesn\u2019t appreciate viewers who \u201cput their baggage\u201d on him. Asmon has developed an appreciation for FFXIV and its award-winning community ever since he first decided to give it a chance in 2021. In fact, he\u2019s become so fond of the game, he called on Square Enix to make an animated series. However, that hasn\u2019t stopped critics and \u2018purists\u2019 from questioning his sincerity and loyalty to the franchise. At first, they claimed he wouldn\u2019t give the game a chance. But he did, and he loved it. Now they\u2019re claiming he\u2019s streaming the game less because he secretly hates it. This time, he decided to clap back. A fan asked Asmon why he hasn\u2019t been streaming FFXIV as much. They assumed it\u2019s because he\u2019s saving it for whenever he returns to his main channel. \u201cI don\u2019t really want to get into that,\u201d said Asmon. Then, he set his sights on FFXIV \u2018purists\u2019 who assume it\u2019s because he doesn\u2019t like the game as much as he makes it out to be. \u201cI think there are people that\u2026 do these purity tests where they\u2019re like, he\u2019s not a real FFXIV player, he doesn\u2019t really like the game,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t know what to say.\u201d \u201cI never put myself in a position where I have to earn people\u2019s approval, aside from streaming, of course. I don\u2019t like putting myself in a position where I have to earn people\u2019s approval.\u201d Ultimately, he thinks it\u2019s \u201cgood\u201d if people who think that refuse to him stream because he doesn\u2019t appreciate viewers who \u201cput their baggage\u201d on him. Asmon might be streaming FFXIV less than he was a few weeks or months ago. However, he hasn\u2019t stopped. He streamed it twice at the end of December 2021, and he\u2019ll stream it again at some point \u2014 with or without the approval of \u2018purists.\u2019<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
