It's gotten me through a couple of tough weeks at work, but I've also enjoyed watching you discover something that I've been enjoying since 2019. Your influence is amazing, but I have enjoyed getting to know you and your content over the past few days.
I don't watch a lot of asmon stream, i really don't, but as a person interested even remotely in the MMO genre this is fantastic. The sheer blizz of imagining a tyrant company like Blizzard shaking in their boots from the efforts of 1 balding man with a banner, leading an army of goons.

I seriously don’t see why he thought catgirls were a big deal when you have werewolves that can run on all fours and literally furry bait vulpera. A cat girl is just a normal girl with car ears on her head and a tail, you can actually achieve the same thing irl with a headband and buttplug.
@@songbirdsandsandwiches8217 Its mainly because the community that surrounds the majority of these cat girls are furries. And like hardcore anime weaboos, and they way they act, is incredibly cringe.

@@SuperKinahead “ Its mainly because the community that surrounds the majority of these cat girls are furries” You might be confused, those weirdos who wear full body fursuits and wants to jump in bed with dogpeople aka furries are different things entirely to cat girls unless you seriously stretch the definition of furry.

I think asmon is putting too much stock into his “negative personality traits” being the draw. I didn’t know anything about him when I started watching his stuff. He was funny and entertaining. All it really took.
Asmon has a great personality and can definitely talk his damn head off, but him being an mmo diehard enthusiast is what drew me to him in the first place.
For real, I stopped watching for a while a few months into Classic and after SL launch because I was tired of the frustration and anger, the drama content etc. Those things were never the draw for me!
@@gumpable Same, I’m also an mmo enthusiast, but conflating that with “moms house and never bathing” is just wrong and sure some might people see themselves in asmon in that sense, I don’t think it’s anywhere near as large a group as he’s making it out.
Are you supposed to understand why something is beautiful to someone? Or repelling? We all have different tastes and beauty is subjective, not objective. One of the reasons why I couldn't get into FF initially is its art, and I tend to enjoy anime and manga a lot. I just don't like Asian type art in videogames.
@@Avrelivs_Gold FFXIV art style is standard JRPG style for the past 20 years or so. WoW looks like it's for grade school kids. And as a lover of Nintendo games, I have no problem with that but it seems very at odds with what Blizzard and WoW players purport it to be.
@@masteroffmuppets666 I think the point he was trying to make is that WoW art isnt amazing or any special. So it doesn’t make sense that they talk negatively about FFxiv art style.
Yeah that sounds weird(er) when you remove the context, I would say it's interesting to learn more about him, because he is an interesting person and/or in a unique and fascinating position as a person. So from a human experience point of view I'm just interested to explore that
I'm so thankful for this MMO movement, I'm having a blast on FF. I used to return to WoW because I loved the story so much, but Shadowlands has just... tainted it.
@@kiwd-dynamic Legion was amazing, but BfA had it's moments. The only thing I thought was dumb was that they retconned Derek being turned to ash just so that they could have a body to resurrect.. because "story". The whole burning down Teldrassil and bombing UC were those kind of welcomed shocks. Sylvannas being a Mary Sue at the end of the xpac was BS though, which was the transition into Shadowlands.
For me I don't really watch you for the ideal loser aspects that you're talking about. I watch you because you have a great attitude and come off as a normal guy. I think you also have some great leadership qualities and I can tell you've put some time and effort into developing that.
totally agree. he stated multiple times to constantly think about stuff, just thinking. thinking untli its thought apart and provides some sort of conclusion for himself.
nice vid, i was wondering what you would do to react to them rambling about you... tbh it was kinda a bad bellular vid, but having you mess with it makes it all worth it lol
I've played WoW for years and never got into your content but you started FFXIV like 2 weeks after me so its been interesting to see you play through it.
This is all I’m going to say, if enough players leave WoW for ffxiv I guarantee you WoW will have to react. Speak with your wallets Players. You have power.
The moment you didn't look into the camera as you told us all you were God, I shit myself. You're a legend among legends, Asmongold, son of Asmongold's dad. Thank you for years of World of Fantasy content. Lok'tar Hrothgar! Alliance Reborn!
Props to whoever edits these videos, I wonder if you've gotten a wink of sleep since this whole thing started lmao. Love to see this content doing so well
@19:00 "Seeing someone comfortable with who they are (on twitch), helps a lot of other people feel comfortable about who THEY are as well." I would accept that as an Axiom. God Bless you Mr. Zack.
Lol! Was I the only one when AS described his life at 20:20, thought well I'm about the same age, but I did the "normal" thing and got married had two kids and now go to a dull Job for 50 hours a week to pay the mortgage. Laying on a futon in mom's attic, eating junk food and spending hours on twitter between JO sessions, sounds pretty good to me at this point.
I went to try out FF because of Asmon too. Taking it slow, as I still love WoWs PvE and it's busy now, but it's alright. I can't imagine doing it on alts, lot's of dialog. That's why it's great that you don't need alts! :D
I just preordered the new expansion and am downloading ffxiv again after a 2 year hiatus, because of asmon. I forgot how much fun the game could be and he is literally doing stuff I haven’t ever done in game after playing it on and off for 3 years
Asmon is the MMO ‘Everyman’. Every single MMO player can identify with some aspect of Asmon and if they say they don’t and he’s an asshole then they simply haven’t watched him enough.
Man, i hope i see a reaction to Break the Limit video. A bit spoilery with the bosses but still, would be an interesting video to show everyone's limit break (and just to brag that astro still has one of the best looking lb out there)
I don't play either game but enjoying this whole thing that's happening. Then watching this and all of a sudden he's reacting to this video I wasn't expecting these guys to have a Northern Ireland accent like myself. Was weird hearing that.
I met 2 new people (Sprouts) in FFXIV. And I asked them both "DID ASMONGOLD SEND YOU!?!" they both said yes. So I basically spent a few hours of my time helping them out. Actually became friends with both of them.
I think I agree with this. I was also put off by the guys playing cat girls in FFXIV, and some of the art style, I didn't like the look of the action bars either, idk. I don't watch Asmon often anymore either but I saw him enjoying FFXIV and doing those duties or whatever they're called and it made me want to be in there playing the game as well.
Awkward, though I feel like this is the perfect time to mention that in all my years playing wow, I have felt empty doing so the last two expansions. Literally no rewarding feeling whatsoever. Meanwhile with FFXIV I am rewarded with an amazing story on top of sick fights.
Azmo, I appreciate your honesty and self reflection in this video. You take the stereotype of the mmo gamer and point out that those gamers have heart, feelings, and a story.
Blizzard honestly doesn't deserve Asmongold, I hope he moves over to FFXIV or something else for good because he is genuinely a good guy who just likes the game. It sucks that Blizzard just wishes he could actually leave the game for good when he is doing so much for Blizzard.
Jeremy's video sent me here LOL. I've seen clips of your comments on a lot of videos but never actually came here - don't know why - thought I was subscribed already I guess. Subscribed. Think I'm gonna check out FF 14 now.
We love him because he makes the game progression we all wish we could, but don't have the time because of "Responsibilities". So we live through his progression!! That in a nutshell.
Having fewer girls on Allcraft is a good thing, because it means the ones who did get on the show actually deserve that spot and aren't just the eye candy for the week.
One of the reasons I love Asmon is that he is rich as fuck but just doesn't care about materialistic BS. He has been at the bottom and only pays for shit that he needs to keep going with maybe his mum buying him some cool shit every now and then. Plus, speaking of his mum the way he looks after her and makes sure she is ok and has everything she wants for her own life is highly commendable. You can tell how much love he has for his parents and how proud he gets of his friends. Dude is a legend.
This is a good example of just how so disconnected the western entertainment business is from its consumers. Comics are losing to manga for the same reason. Take your money elsewhere boys and see how long they can be so dismissive. It might even make a weeb out of me.
@@MeldinX2 Well, while I do not find Asmongold to be particularly offensive, he is not always PC. Therefore, by the dictates of this current spirit of the age, Act/Bliz is forced to distance themselves from him. I like Asmon because he has integrity and is unapologetic. He is the exact opposite of duplicitous western business practices, or at least their PR, and thus an anathema to them.
The most important part in this video is.
Asmon: "I shower more often now..."
FFXIV: "Mission success."

The whole burning down Teldrassil and bombing UC were those kind of welcomed shocks. Sylvannas being a Mary Sue at the end of the xpac was BS though, which was the transition into Shadowlands.
MMOs are like GFs; good ones lift you up and the bad ones drain the life out of you.
All I could think through that whole video was how that guy was wearing two collard shirts at the same time.
Ain't gonna lie, I do the same stuff. I like wearing those button up shirts as like a thin coat and just having another collared shit on
RedBananaBoomerang if you like em, keep on rockin em, king
Tbh I won't surprised if Asmon will somehow be like Zepla, have a hobby outside gaming, clean room etc

i still love how humble zack is, he still puts his pants on one leg at a time like the rest of us.
The only difference is how infrequently that happens, but yeah

For me I don't really watch you for the ideal loser aspects that you're talking about. I watch you because you have a great attitude and come off as a normal guy. I think you also have some great leadership qualities and I can tell you've put some time and effort into developing that.
totally agree. he stated multiple times to constantly think about stuff, just thinking. thinking untli its thought apart and provides some sort of conclusion for himself.
it isn't "just because you wore the beanie" it's because you seem like a happier and more positive person
so my takeaway is: If the weebs of eorzea were to summon their primal it would be asmon
nice vid, i was wondering what you would do to react to them rambling about you...
tbh it was kinda a bad bellular vid, but having you mess with it makes it all worth it lol
Bellular needs to react to this video now, so it's Bellular reacts to Asmongold, reacting to Bellular, reacting to Asmongold.
These circle of react videos are so odd lol, everything going full circle
I've played WoW for years and never got into your content but you started FFXIV like 2 weeks after me so its been interesting to see you play through it.
I never laughed so hard like when he talked about why would Blizz would be happy with him gone. The guy is a treasure. I said it, and will say it.
This is all I’m going to say, if enough players leave WoW for ffxiv I guarantee you WoW will have to react. Speak with your wallets Players. You have power.
"The quintessential loser " lmao. But in our eyes your a king asmon. Like king Poseidon in spongebob, hes a king and hes bald too.
His rant reminds me of the "Make love, not Warcraft" episode where Blizzard wondered..... "How do you kill that which has no life?"..... Asmongold.
I love the fact that I am considered to be part of your community
26:42 I almost died to lack of oxygen from the laughter, i woke up the dogs and got them all hyper, that was just attempted murder tbh.
The moment you didn't look into the camera as you told us all you were God, I shit myself. You're a legend among legends, Asmongold, son of Asmongold's dad. Thank you for years of World of Fantasy content. Lok'tar Hrothgar! Alliance Reborn!
Props to whoever edits these videos, I wonder if you've gotten a wink of sleep since this whole thing started lmao. Love to see this content doing so well
Asmon, keep staying true to yourself. So much respect for just being a good guy.
i was really happy to see zack pet the cat girl in his mini raid. more because i was happy to see him find enjoyment in the game.
people tend to forget that he tried to don't wash for a month before playing FF14 pepeLaugh
I think what helps asmon a lot is that he looks like Tom Green and he is assertive.
@19:00 "Seeing someone comfortable with who they are (on twitch), helps a lot of other people feel comfortable about who THEY are as well."
I would accept that as an Axiom.
God Bless you Mr. Zack.
Lol the way ur humble and honest about the things you say - that’s why you are who you are and why we watch - keep it goin AG
ngl I wouldn't mind having legion classic but with a legendary vendor already in it would be dope
I agree that Zack actually seems happier this past week. Love to see it!
Lol! Was I the only one when AS described his life at 20:20, thought well I'm about the same age, but I did the "normal" thing and got married had two kids and now go to a dull Job for 50 hours a week to pay the mortgage. Laying on a futon in mom's attic, eating junk food and spending hours on twitter between JO sessions, sounds pretty good to me at this point.
Almost 1 million unique visitors during the live stream. That's bigger than mainstream media news.
Now get Bellular to watch this and make another video for Asmongold to watch
I went to try out FF because of Asmon too. Taking it slow, as I still love WoWs PvE and it's busy now, but it's alright. I can't imagine doing it on alts, lot's of dialog. That's why it's great that you don't need alts! :D
He had to become the thing he hated to save the thing he loved. Can’t wait to see WoW reinvigorated by this competition!
I’m just not sure it can be done at this point, not unless Blizzard puts some real love back in to WoW.
I just preordered the new expansion and am downloading ffxiv again after a 2 year hiatus, because of asmon. I forgot how much fun the game could be and he is literally doing stuff I haven’t ever done in game after playing it on and off for 3 years
Asmon is the MMO ‘Everyman’. Every single MMO player can identify with some aspect of Asmon and if they say they don’t and he’s an asshole then they simply haven’t watched him enough.
A reaction video to a reaction of a reaction. Such solid content.
ALL HAIL ASBUNGOLD
Man, i hope i see a reaction to Break the Limit video. A bit spoilery with the bosses but still, would be an interesting video to show everyone's limit break (and just to brag that astro still has one of the best looking lb out there)
Lets take bets on Asmongold chair replacement.

I don't play either game but enjoying this whole thing that's happening. Then watching this and all of a sudden he's reacting to this video I wasn't expecting these guys to have a Northern Ireland accent like myself. Was weird hearing that.
People dont dislike asmongold, they dislike their idea of who he is and represents
That’s deep bro
Man, horse.
I think they hate the idea they think he represents, because others said he represents that.
I met 2 new people (Sprouts) in FFXIV. And I asked them both "DID ASMONGOLD SEND YOU!?!" they both said yes. So I basically spent a few hours of my time helping them out. Actually became friends with both of them.
"Exmaldia" Good name, chat. Good name.
I think I agree with this. I was also put off by the guys playing cat girls in FFXIV, and some of the art style, I didn't like the look of the action bars either, idk. I don't watch Asmon often anymore either but I saw him enjoying FFXIV and doing those duties or whatever they're called and it made me want to be in there playing the game as well.
Love the edit where Matt saying that people are also having fun in WoW was taken out
Awkward, though I feel like this is the perfect time to mention that in all my years playing wow, I have felt empty doing so the last two expansions. Literally no rewarding feeling whatsoever. Meanwhile with FFXIV I am rewarded with an amazing story on top of sick fights.
Azmo, I appreciate your honesty and self reflection in this video.
You take the stereotype of the mmo gamer and point out that those gamers have heart, feelings, and a story.
Blizzard honestly doesn't deserve Asmongold, I hope he moves over to FFXIV or something else for good because he is genuinely a good guy who just likes the game. It sucks that Blizzard just wishes he could actually leave the game for good when he is doing so much for Blizzard.
Jeremy's video sent me here LOL. I've seen clips of your comments on a lot of videos but never actually came here - don't know why - thought I was subscribed already I guess. Subscribed. Think I'm gonna check out FF 14 now.
“I AM THE EXODIA”
Literal God
We love him because he makes the game progression we all wish we could, but don't have the time because of "Responsibilities". So we live through his progression!! That in a nutshell.
Having fewer girls on Allcraft is a good thing, because it means the ones who did get on the show actually deserve that spot and aren't just the eye candy for the week.
true and real
I like hazzel and the red ff girl
both are fun
That’s such a shit take, the same can be said for men. And just shows you assume people just view girls as eye candy.
@@Chocofries usually we do
One of the reasons I love Asmon is that he is rich as fuck but just doesn't care about materialistic BS. He has been at the bottom and only pays for shit that he needs to keep going with maybe his mum buying him some cool shit every now and then. Plus, speaking of his mum the way he looks after her and makes sure she is ok and has everything she wants for her own life is highly commendable. You can tell how much love he has for his parents and how proud he gets of his friends.
Dude is a legend.
It's like someone filled his Infowars snackbox with Super Male Vitality.
Thank you asmon for playing my favorite game I’ve watched every episode and I love that I can finally watch you :)
Not first :( You’re the best Asmon.
that outro is pure 24k gold
This is a good example of just how so disconnected the western entertainment business is from its consumers. Comics are losing to manga for the same reason. Take your money elsewhere boys and see how long they can be so dismissive. It might even make a weeb out of me.
true and real
@@MeldinX2 Well, while I do not find Asmongold to be particularly offensive, he is not always PC. Therefore, by the dictates of this current spirit of the age, Act/Bliz is forced to distance themselves from him. I like Asmon because he has integrity and is unapologetic. He is the exact opposite of duplicitous western business practices, or at least their PR, and thus an anathema to them.
what's really offensive is hunger and dictatorship, words are just words especially in entertainment/comidic show
