Asmongold, who has been involved in the community for a while now, explained why he feels like it\u2019s well-deserved. At first, he described it as a cult. However, it becomes clear that he meant it in a positive way. The Best Game Community award goes to the residents of Eorzea in Final Fantasy XIV! A huge congrats to the team at @FF_XIV_EN and everyone in the community who makes @SquareEnix online adventure what it is. pic.twitter.com\/xF8y1W0Zhp \u2014 Golden Joysticks (@GoldenJoysticks) November 26, 2021 \u201cDo I feel it\u2019s deserved that Final Fantasy XIV Online won community of the year? I mean, yeah, it\u2019s a f**king cult,\u201d said Asmon. \u201cThe people that play Final Fantasy, some of them act like they\u2019re in a cult. 100%.\u201d \u201cYou know it. I know it. Everybody knows it. And If something is good enough to be a cult, that means it\u2019s probably a pretty damn good community.\u201d He also claimed it\u2019s \u201cbetter\u201d than World of Warcraft\u2019s community. \u201cI don\u2019t know everybody in the community. This is just my experience. But I\u2019ve had a lot more positive interactions with the Final Fantasy community.\u201d A good example of a positive interaction is the time players left him speechless after welcoming him into the expansion. Another example is the moving tribute they paid to his mother after she passed away. It\u2019s not the first time he has praised the FFXIV community. In the past, he described it as \u201csupportive\u201d compared to the \u201ctrash\u201d World of Warcraft community. So, it\u2019s no surprise that he praised it again after winning the Best Games Community award, even if he thinks it\u2019s a little cult-like.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Asmongold praises \u201cpositive\u201d FFXIV community over WoW after award nod Twitch: Asmongold \/ Square EnixAsmongold praised the FFXIV Online community after they won the Best Games Community award at the Golden Joystick Awards 2021, claiming it\u2019s \u201cpretty damn good.\u201d The FFXIV Online community beat the likes of other communities from Destiny 2, No Man\u2019s Sky: [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-69539","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69539","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=69539"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69539\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=69539"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=69539"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=69539"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
