Final Fantasy XIV Lalafell Drama | Xeno Reacts
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- Lalafell Players in Final Fantasy XIV are mad because of a recently added furniture item called Lalafell Lifter. In this video Xeno goes on the official Final Fantasy 14 Forums to see what the rage is all about. This is one of the most childish drama ins FFXIV, but I guess that is appropriate for Lalafell players.

"We're tired of being infantilized and want to be taken seriously."
Me, a Lala, still giggling at that Zenos fight.
Seriously 🤣 for real
... I'm on SB rn about to battle tsukiyomi... would asking for context be spoilers? If no I'd like context. If not... I'll see you in a few days maybe.
@@qlasalle I mean… yeah just wait lol. It’ll all make sense in the end. Enjoy! 😉
@one_eyeddd473 well I Tank so I had to watch a guide but it looks so fun. I like the Ying and yang stack effect and all the dodging
@@qlasalleit's just a fighting cutscene with zenos, looks funny when putting a lala against zenos in a 1v1 since he's so huge
"Lalafells try to prove they aren't toddlers by throwing tantrums." - Tonka (LalafellPlayer)
I love that guy that thought he was making a point with the “miqo’te litter box.”
Meanwhile, every miqo’te player: “OH MY GOD YES, GIVE IT TO US NOW”
As a Miqo’te player I can confirm this
Yeah id take that, using the garden outside is kinda weird
as a viera player... where is my hay holder.
Miqo'te players are not hypocrites.
@@lootmaster1337 the garden outside? I’ve just been using the houseplants!
As a lala player I think the chair is funny as fuck
I too am a lala player and share your sentiment.
@@frostmourne1986 Ya I saw it and was like HA I love this shit
Right!? It really funny
Yeah, I made a Santa's workshop and used the Lalafell house vendors to be little elves making toys. Friend came over and they were like "Nice, you're running a children's sweat shop" 😂
Absolutely. I died laughing.
I mean, do people really play Lalafell to be taken seriously? I laughed so hard when my friend's FC put the booster seat at a table for me.
Right? Embrace the memes.. it’s legit a meme race half the time. Though if I had to make a Lala I would be dwarfed tf out
I was a Lala for all of two months and I loved every minute of it. Ridiculous waddle run, overly expressive emotes, every outfit looking cute, and certain minions sitting on my tiny potato head.
I swear, people who take their race selection seriously are really creepy (and very hilarious to mock). You pick the short race that looks cute and childish. That's fine. I personally see them as hilarious, especially since I still play FFXI and Tarutaru are the literal origin of Lalafells. Both races are literally designed to be cute and childish. Literally designed that way. If someone views that as rapey content, that's entirely on them. That's like looking at a parent/guardian/teacher and their kid and immediately thinking "that kids rape content". Like holy shit these fuckers are creepy.
maybe not taken seriously, but most certainly not taken creepy, because its true that many people do accuse people of being creepy when perhaps they just see lala as dwarf
I thought the whole point of lalafell was to laugh at how absurd it is. My first thought launching the game was tiny tank/healer yes I will. Bonus points for being unhinged in a funny manner.
I thought the one rule of playing the small race in any game was "Expect to be bullied and punted by everyone."
That's just depressing to read now...
Justifying bullying :oof:
I shall reaper the soles of all those who trys to pats or punt me! Me and noble steed lesser panda will not stand for it!!!
It gets old... really quickly.
@@nixiedreamstar Let's be honest, it's not really bullying most people mean it in good fun they aren't serious. What next all the /pets we get become inappropriate? And I play lalafell I have met very few people that are aggressively serious about stuff like that.
Lala players really acting like they've been abandoned by god when they have an entire goddamn city only they can access and the game's director is known for playing one himself.
Meanwhile Hroth players waited 3 years for new hairstyles, and all they got was their ears deleted.
Male Roe here, would like to be made fun of with ANY furniture please.
Where's my male roe gorilla suit
You really put things into perspective here lmao
@@mquezada88I'm not a male roe but I would LOVE a gorilla suit in game 😂
My female roe she hulk briefcase 💼
"who wants to watch a cutscene where a child dies??"
*flashbacks to Ahm Araeng when you see a child dying in front of your eyes*
Hahahahahaha Thavnair
Traumatised
you think RPers pay attention to the story?
When did a kid die in Ahm Araeng? And have sineater sickness doesn't count as "dying"
If you mean Tesleen, she's a young adult. Listen to her dialogue and read convos with her, you can easily do the math that she's suppose to be early 20s at the youngest.
No other young looking characters die in Ahm Araeng.
I am so glad this “drama” has led to me seeing Xeno doing the fem miqo pose
A Miqo'te litterbox can be used as a sandbox for Lalafell daycares. Can also use the stool for a corner timeout and give them that weird pointy mage cone hat. 😂 Surprised they didn't ask for the removal of the 50+ stuffies, toys, and plushies housing items that were already in the game.
Update: I just remembered the "squatting" sit position of male Miqo'tes. Make the litterbox happen.
I will die before they remove my plushies.
I am a manly man with a manly man house, and it needs its plushies, dammit.
BRUH, DUDE, LMAO
Yea litterbox please, getting tired of Miqo'tes taking a dump in my gardens.
Just got clean water for the first time in a week but gotdamn this Lalafell Lifter drama looks super important
I frequently go on the xiv forums to feel better about myself whenever I have a bad day with my chronic illness because the people who post on there clearly have it worse. I hope they can quickly recover from this very traumatic experience 🙏🏼
Hope you feel better soon.
Dude, same. Except it's reddit for me.
I've seen FCs that only recruit Elezen race. I asked them the reasoning, it was because for RP purpose. They were really nice and laugh about my joke saying they should invite Lalafells since they're just shorter Elezen.
An elezen is just three lalas in a suit.
A Roegadyn is just a lalafel growing in reverse.
"How would you feel if they added a litterbox for Miqote?"
I'd love that. Because it's funny. It's a funny joke. I'd also like to see like those cat jungle gyms, but super large that a person could climb on it.
I need a Giant Cat Bed for my Miqo'te now.
Imagine having so few problems in life that your sole problem is a virtual piece of furniture...
First world problems 101.
Some people desperately need to touch grass 🤣
No one said it's their sole problem
This kind of thinking of idiotic
@@elgatochurro found one
@@elgatochurro you know what's even more idiotic ? Making a drama over nothing.
Xeems’ laugh is a golden part of my day.
Concern, Strummer @16:10
some guy on twitter complained about it and compared it to Au'ra ans Mi'qote getting a Litter box and heat Lamps. Unfortunatly many liked his idea :P
There is the cat scratcher. All this is is just for fun.
As an Au’ra I’d love a heat lamp.
@@ashiri And at least one or two instances of item description jokes about viera and carrots in Endwalker.
WAIT FUCK THAT, THE RESTORATION PAINTS ISHGARDIAN ELEZEN AS PSYCHO COMMUNIAL SALT ROCK LICKERS. Lala players aren't allowed to complain about anything ever again holy shit
I'd pay top dollar for a heating lamp no cap.
i will go all in on the lizard sterotype
"don't treat us like we're babies"
*acts like literal babies*

As I said in the clip channel, imagine having no serious issues in life other than being outraged over a virtual piece of furniture.
And I say that as someone who played FFXIV as a lalafell for the better part of a decade. This is such a non-issue.
Yup. and this isn't the first time they've done joke furniture at the expense of one of the game's races and it certainly won't be the last. It's all in good fun and people need to take the sticks outta their asses.
@@Blewdy Actually 2nd time. The tree slice house says "pets love it! Mito'qes too" and its a little cat house thing
isn't the reason why this guy complain about this to begin with is because there is a minor amount of people who accuse lala players as creepy and groomers ?
I don't know man, it took me 5 seconds to write this comment. typing it doesn't mean i'll think about it beyond a minute. Imagine thinkin that every internet comment lives rent free in these peoples heads and wasn't just a passing thought they thought they'd share on a forum, like every other internet comment.
You're missing the reason why people are mad over this virtual chair in the first place. This will just increase player harassment.
So many people associate their online character with their real self. It's pretty sad.
Exactly, why do you think so much drama exist in raiding and even casual content like dungeons??
I know, so weird, right? Why would someone who spends tens of thousands of hours playing the same character come to identify with it?
(I'm being sarcastic btw. I doubt your intelligence based on your comment so I thought I'd mention that.)
@@NyklausCopernicus 🤓
@@NyklausCopernicus 🤓
@@NyklausCopernicus I'm unsure why you feel the need to throw an insult in, but since you want to play this game, and the point of my comment was clearly lost inside the vacuous emptiness that exists between your ears, I'll explain further.
You are not your character. You do not live in a fantasy world where you can use magic, fly, shoot laser beams from your hands, and fight world-ending threats as the sole savior of the world on a daily basis.
Is it fun to pretend to do that? Absolutely. Can your character have your personality traits, which by the way do not matter in the slightest since everything that happens in the game is scripted and regardless of any choices you make nothing changes? Sure, go for it. But if you can't make the separation between the you in reality and the character you are playing, you need to take a break or seek help. It is a video game. It is there to be fun and provide some level of social interaction if you so choose. It is not there for you to develop a personality around and become part of who you are.
To add to that, anyone who has put anything remotely close to 10,000 hours needs to seriously reflect the validity of their feelings if they are feeling upset about a joke item. If you have the kind of free time to devote to a video game, your life is pretty good.
As a Lalafell player, I get upset when people think I'm some kind of pedophile because it says to me that they are thinking of my hellspawn as something that is sexual enough to think about. If you want to rub one out to a half-pint dressed in a Moogle fursuit and a literal clown coat, that's your fucking problem, man. I'm here to make bad jokes and piss people off.
I know a guy who plays a Lala girl and he is 100% obsessed with it. He gushes over how cute and adorable she is, dresses her up like a doll, and the level of detail he goes into when talking about her makes me feel super uncomfortable sometimes. Honestly, the people who think that the race is funny and just joke around with it are fine, but when you can basically hear them drooling when they describe their character over VC...it can seem weird. Players like you exist, but you can't say that players like THAT don't.
@@SageTigerStar Sure, there are creeps everywhere, but you can't say the number of people who see a Lala and instantly say "that person is a pedo" isn't the majority of the problem.
@@moogleboy In your case sounds like pure projection. Worked in a club for a bit though and you run into the rare cases of people playing Lala in order to be creepy about it to often. It wasn't a nightly thing but it happened at least once to twice a week. Never played Lala for more than a few minutes let alone worked in a nightclub as one so can't really say how common those two things are in comparison. We had a Lala bartender and she was super wholesome but people would on rare occasion still creep on her... those fuckers where fortunately blacklisted ASAP.
I'm here to say, I do recall SE getting away with killing a kid in a cutscene actually... they just transformed them into a monster first. :D
That wasnt a "kid" it was a young adult older then Alphi and Ali
@@SemekiIzuio Endwalker.
SE didn't just get away with killing a kid, they traumatized the fuck out of the kid in one of the most horrifying ways I can imagine without just getting overwhelmed by a combination of nausea and the PTSD fueled urge to slowly stab a MFer to death. Then they proceeded to transform the kid into a monster and made you kill them with your own hands.
Didn't someone throw a kid...or teenager off the castle in Ishgard during Heavensward.
@@asteroidxarmageddon2354Yea but they didnt die
If they had done like a crib I could understand, but it just looks like a tall chair for small people.
boy these RPers had better not ever read the official art books on the design and basis of lalas as basically kindergartners
They have read it.
See I legit wanna know why they don't have the tomra furniture craftable/aquireable in the game...like it's there, you can go to tomra and use the furniture
Edit: a miqo litter box would be hilarious ngl
Because if they do give lala-sized furniture it wont fit for the other race. This lifter and step stool is to bridge the height gap between lala and non-lala
but having other race to sit/sleep on lala-sized furniture will look too awkward
@@naz-- i dont see that as a problem. if it doesnt fit the other races, then people who play those dont have to use them. and people use furniture in other ways than how its presented by default. towels as cushions, blackboards as sofa backs, marble alcove bed as flooring and ceilings, etc
Some rando mad players: "Hurr durr, calling Au Ra 'dragon-people' is rude and offensive!"
Square Enix: **gives an important dragon an Au Ra avatar**
Aura actualy lizzards no? As aura player and entusiast and make researches in stepe i read somewhere they lizards.
@@Padrino_Tommy IIRC there was some racism in Ishgard with folks saying that Au Ra were related to dragons. But afaik the general consensus is that all of the races that looks like they are related to animals (Viera, Miqote, Kobolds, Hrothgar, Au Ra, Bangaa, etc.) are just that; they look but aren't.
In fact, my basis for the "hurrdurr, Au Ra 'dragon-people' racist" thing was that I recall reading something official saying that all these races look like animals but aren't and that it's considered offensive in lore to call, for example, a viera a rabbit-person. But I've not been able to find the text that I saw that in.
Even back in Tactics Advance, when Marche first encounters a bangaa he says "a talking lizard" or something to that effect and it's perceived by the bangaa as offensive.
I feel like a lot of that in FF14 is just because of the Ishgardians doing some really horrific shit to the Au Ra, and that's part of why what they do in Endwalker hits so hard on a symbolic level, it's flipping that association being used as an escuse to commit heinous hate crimes against a group on it's head completely. Being compared to a dragon is actually kind of cool and doesn't imply a lack of intelligence like being compared to a bunny or a cat might as long as everyone around you isn't going "this "person" is maliscious and evil and must be driven out and tormented, may these abominations know Halones wrath."
"If your drink doesn't have at least 200 calories you're a disappointment."
I'm dying of laughter here, man. Stop it. XD
Same and thats so legit. People look at you funny for being healthy
To answer Xeno's question, the english speaking XIV communities are the only ones who treat lalafells like meme children. JP community just sees them as dwarves, they don't have jokes like lalajam or punting or petting lalafell.
Tbh, there was an entire expansion where Lala's were called dwarfs and even looked serious. The only time they became Lalas again was when they take off their bearded helmet. That's why dwarfs had a strict law to never take off their helmet, else they'll be exiled for being an uncultured animals :)
Because Lalafell are just the height of the JP users
sounds like a blanket statement that doesn't reflect reality, I'm an active player in an english speaking xiv server, and I don't see lalas as children, tho yeah, they are adorable in a "little brother" way, and I want to pet them. Ngl, *all* the lalas I have in my ffxiv are absolutely happy with getting pets for this, just like all the miqotes I know are happy with getting pets for being feline-looking. Sounds like only a vocal minority is getting offended over this.
@@FlavorsomeMusic dude, as a lala, the only time I'm not being treated as a Child proxy or a pedo is when people are saying I"m the devil incarnate
There are players who are cool with us, but yeah, they're rarity, SPECIALLY outside of cool FCs or friend circles, god I've been treated badly because of being lalafell by FC members before
@@nikolasantony7761 maybe the problem isn't you being a lalafell, but you surrounding yourself poorly. I mean, I hang out in limsa on my server, and there's like, at least a dozen lalas I see regularly, and never have I seen them being called a pedo, we all pet them and we like them a lot. And yeah, lalas are the devil incarnate, be proud of it. I think that's awesome. Hellish imps ♥
I know of quite a few people who are looking for reasons to be offended on this game, and I don't think you should validate them like that. Human brain is also biased towards noticing the bad experiences we go through much more than the good ones. The good ones are expected, the bad ones trigger our innate survival instinct, we feel threatened, so our brain associate much more importance to those. I think you could benefit from keeping that in mind.
...Also, please ooooOOOOOOoooh your local miqote, we love it. :D
As an Fem 'Ra player I would love a Dragon's Horde rugg that's just piles of gold and treasure. I also think a Miquote litterbox would he hysterical
Mmmm that's actually a thing. "Plundered treasure" carpet.
Alternative title 'Xeno reacts to children crying' lol
"a quickie at the quicksands"
Bet that'll be in people's info soon
I love the fact there are kids in the game and absolutely all of them are taller than the lalafels so it makes their point of not being child-looking even more stupid
Also, if you start in Ul'dah, one of the early quests is giving cookies to orphan children and the two lalafell children are literally indistinguishable from adult lalas. It's absolutely hilarious to get butthurt over this like these people didn't SEE WHAT LALAFELLS LOOK LIKE IN THE CHARACTER CREATOR and it just never occurred to them.
@@sleepythemisthere are also human children in this game. They look nothing alike.
tbh I think they're child-like since the actually children in ffxiv look normal to me. They look like walking garden gnomes to me lol. But when it comes to the race in of itself, yeah you probably can't tell what a child and adult lalafell looks like. Tbh really cursed race and I'll be telling them to sit at the lalafell corner everytime.
To me is the way they act. Have you seen the way they cross their arms or even walk? Or even sit, dude. It's really looks like a kid.
"I play Lalafel sarcastically! It's fun to be smol haha I'm quirky and funny"
*SE implements furniture joking w lalas*
"WTF THIS IS AN OUTRAGE I WANT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY"
Oh God not the lalafels LMAOOOOO
So does that mean calling them a potato is a step-up from being called a kid? 😆
The fuck is a lalafels? Sorry never played ff14. Kidding I did only 3 hours tough and then lost all my save data and forgot my password. However I am a huge ff fan.
Master race to you
Well, if they want Lalafellian sized (?) Furniture....they should get Lalafellian sized houses too! :D
The description of the chair in other languages is “a chair with a higher seat for lalafell. Perfect for children of other races” and makes this joke 100x more hilarious
どこのだれか知らないがゼノおじを日本語訳してくれて本当にありがとう、こんなに面白いとは知らなかった
"I don't know who it is, but thank you so much for translating Uncle Zeno into Japanese, I didn't know it was this funny" -google translator
As a Lalafell player, I like my big furniture, just feels more homey xD
8:16 I have never once encountered anybody who poses an issue with normal rping as a lalafell, even in those fight club venues, DJ Venues, or just normal areas. I never witnessed anyone closing doors on rp for Lalafells. People are pretty open. But I can definitely see people rejecting shutting down rps involving Lalafells on the erp side. That's to be expected, and I don't blame the people who shut them down in that section.
Exactly, worked in a nightclub for a bit and we only kicked out Lala's if they where being really over the top in ways that made everyone else uncomfortable, had another male lala coming in at least once a week in just there undies... sorry dude no one wants to see that shit. Heck one of our bartenders was a Lala, unfortunately occasionally had to kick out fuckers for being weird with her to, legit one of the most wholesome human beings I have ever encountered.
Also why do Lalas need special beds? Who's fighting for beds that comfortably fit two male Roe or Hrothgar?
Or did they mean those cute little beds with bars around them so little one doesn't fall out?
Yeah, I don't get that one. If I was a midget, having a large bed all ot myself would be awesome.
Beats being tall and having a bed that barely fits me.
Someone posted the chair on Twitter and said "You'd be angry too if they gave Miqo'tes a litterbox or Au Ras a heating lamp!" and I have to say I would LOVE to have a heating lamp for my lizard girl! Pair it with a rock too, so I can bask on it!
The Lalafel community that are upset about this are insane, this is hilarious and a great addition to the game.
Literally anytime I play with my 3yr old in the room with me, every time he sees a lalafell he'll say "look a baaaaaby."

I‘m a Lala and I think the chair is hilarious
Same. My boyfriend and I both play as Lala and we thought it was really funny, so do our non-Lala friends. I think these people who are offended by this virtual chair are those types that live on Twitter to complain all day long lol 😂
"I just got back from the fake beard store, did someone say they needed an adult?" - Papashan, FFXIV.
As a Lalafell player, I get not wanting to be treated like a child, because regardless of what the character I'm playing looks like, I am an adult. Simple as that, at the end of the day. On the other hand, I don't RP and I couldn't give less of a shit about this chair. I might get it for the desk in my house or something.
My absolute favorite tweet I saw was from a lala nsfw account that replied to a post about this with "This sets us back so much".
Imagine having a large as a lalafel and then feeling like the house is too big for you and asking SE to fix it. Funny that.
Imagine getting upset over your in-game character race being dissed on 🤣
"how would you feel if they added a miqo litterbox" i literally give some of my miqo friends stacks of sand and tell them it's for their litterbox dsjkjskdjsk
"I get annoyed when strangers call me a giraffe" i have been an elezen since arr and i call myself a giraffe lmao, and my in-game husband will randomly walk up to me on his dhalmel and be like "IT YOU! :D"
I agree that the name could be changed, because "Lalafell Lifter" is too good a name to waste on a chair like this. When I first read that name, I imagined a hydraulic lift chair. The chair was all steel and sits really low to the ground with a bar on the side. The bar would be interactable and would lift the seated character off the floor up into the air with the "pop! hissshhhh..." sound like a truck coming to a stop. You could toggle the bar again to rapidly drop back down to the floor. It would be hilarious to see big races on a lift chair like that. I just think it could have looked way cooler for such a good name.
The "worst" thing I've seen regarding Lalas in xiv is a hold-over joke from xi about sacrificing a taru(lala) for extra loot drops.
As a Lalafell main for many years, I find this drama hilarious tbh.
Same
Same I thought it as the devs making memes of lalas they forgot that yoshi plays lalafell
Imagine getting offended about being something that you chose to be.
Dude goes to Germany and asks for "normal water" lmao
the first time I saw this chair, my thought was.... imagine yoshi p, a lala player, seeing the design for it and he laught out lou and laying on the ground and then gives his ok. the fact...a lala player put it in the game and this guys go insane about it xD
The chair is cute. Do people really play Lala to not be cute?
I play a Lala because I'm 6'2" irl and wish I could be short. The war crimes, genocide, and ruthless nature of Lalafell is a nice bonus.
It's so odd how against looking like cute dolls Lala's are. Like, isn't that the whole point of the race? They look like kids (even though Lala will argue your ear off if you state the obvious), that's why I personally didn't want to play the race. If you don't want to hear "you look like a kid" maybe don't play the race that looks like a kid.
I play lala cause I want to be short bastard that my friend want to kick around xD
@@Miriam_J_ I'm the weirdo who chooses race based on personal fantasy and lore. I chose the race because "small and cute", I stay with the race because of maniacal murder.
It's a cute chair and there's nothing wrong with it all. These people are being silly. I'd say most people playing Lala either want to look adorable or want to troll/meme. I'm smol (5 foot) so I picked Lala to poke fun at my own height and because they look like adorable little Chibis. I wished that Calca/Brina's dress was available, would look so nice on my character.
Bro are we actually gonna sit here and act like lalafells are not designed to appear as small as children? Like what do you mean you’re OFFENDED?! It’s a freaking video game, jesus
"sit here" lmao... the irony
Chair is cute. End of drama.
Strummer is cute too. No drama whatsoever
10:20 the irony of this person calling someone else terminally online when the people complaining about this probably haven't touched grass in weeks.
My first ever character was a lala for most of my nearly 3 years - so far - of playing, (free fanta'd after ARR from catboy) I recently switched to melezen to "grow up" my character... literally, I tried to make him look as alike as I could to my lala, just obviously taller and less rotund, being an elezan and all... with near-identical style facial hair kept intact! I can understand the frustration of the furniture item looking like a toddler's "highchair", and I somewhat agree that they didn't have to make it look like that... but I also think it's kinda funny too. If they made a tiny chair for Roegadan to hunch over in, a la Mr. Incredible squeezing into his tiny car on the way to his office job in the first Incredibles movie, I would think it was hilarious. I also wouldn't get mad at my elezen being called a giraffe either, they're my favorite animal: that's what the G stands for, and it's in my character's last name too lol.
Everyone is lalafell, some are just piloting their big suits, they will always come back to smol 😂
Being offended by this is insane to me and these people have lost touch with reality. Lalafells are dwarves with all the same status as any other race in canon, but they *do* look like little chibi children no matter what the game's story says.
There's just no way around it.
came for the drama, stayed for bald, angry, beard man laughing
Nobody made them choose Lala, now they want to cry about it…the high chair seems fitting
*"Her feelings for Arbert, however, are aught but matronly, and she secretly longs for him to notice her for the woman she is. Nonetheless, she does not allow her lustful thoughts of Arbert's loins cloud her sense of duty and serves the Warriors with a stern vigilance as their expert on curative magicks."*
Lalafell, like hobbits in LOTR, stereotypes exist in-game and between players, so people can't really complain about the kid comparisons. However, there's definitely more of a trend of the writers trying to paint the world as treating them as an equal humanoid race.
I'm not a lore geek, but IMO there should've been more Nymian stuff before highchairs, or other kid-stereotype stuff. If the hrothgars were saying, "give us more bozja housing items," it'd be like SQEX giving them a big ball of yarn instead, with fluff text it was ancient training equipment.
None of that matters to these people cause "hurr Durr they look like kids"
I don’t know a single Hrothgar player that wouldn’t be delighted to receive a ball of yarn, same goes for any other funny stereotype item.
@@LordOdioThey look like kids, they move like kids, and here you prove that even their players act like kids.

As someone who has a lalafell I find it totally hilarious. Though more useful items would be better I'll take funny over nothing
It is pretty funny I make jokes about being a lala all the time and I have played one since I started years ago xD
Imagine beeing so petty about something like this when 2 out of the 8 races can't even use all hairstyles.
Man I love rp-drama like this
This is drama? Lol. Like, the chair isn't really my thing aesthetically (back is too low, no arm rests, dye for it sucks), but it's awesome to actually see my Lalafell's face at a table that isn't glitched into the ground.
How the fuck did baldinho have trouble getting water in Germany of all places???
NA brain smh >_>
Potatoes malding, hilarious
"Pick the race that's designed to look like children and purposely written to be comic relief for their small size."
"Get mad because treated like children and become the butt of jokes because small."
"Complain."
Bro...
I love me a good giraffe joke, I crack a few with my raid static, and I'm a fucking elezen. Where my fellow giraffes at?!
i'm someone whos been a lala since i started playing and will remain a lala. BUT when i saw this, I started laughing so hard. Then laughed even Harder at that post. It's a joke that people take it so seriously.
also- Grooming? Not once have I ever heard anyone refer to a lalfell as a groomer. these people Literally need to go touch some grass.
@@LuminateTheWorld no actually. They just need to go outside more
@Snubby i think *from other places i have seen* is people who want flirt with lalafell or erp with them are more targed as groomer.
Western society snowflake issue...
Tbh why should you get offended by being called pedophile, if they say in their own words that lalas aren't children 🤔
I respect my Lalafell companions.
I've seen em do crazy stuff. The casters and tanks do outrageous things. And come out on top.
While I think they should get more size appropriate furniture, this chair is totally awesome.
Sparkling water and no AC? He talking about Seattle? Lol😂
I like to play small races, usually dwarves, because I see them as small badass warriors and blacksmiths. However, sadly the character creator lacks the options to make a lala look like a dwarf. When I say dwarf, I mean like Tolkien or WoW dwarves. Big beard and bulky but short.
At least ya'll had Papashan. Homie was like my in game Grandpa when I first started.
As someone who plays Roeg, if they gave me a tiny chair, I'd probably die laughing, because that shit would be hilarious.
if anything this whole drama taught the word infantilization to xeems so its a W
No one is talking about the fact that it doesn't require changes to have normal size furniture or oversized, undersized furniture would mean making new animations for all other races so your legs are not in the floor.
I don’t think I’ve met a lala player that had this thin of skin
Lalas want to be taken serious? Wait what..
Every lala i know got a full animal meme outfit
The only people i see get mad at you calling their lala a kid are people who do sussy shit with their character (Balmung) OR they literally just are tired of their dwarf not being viewed as a dwarf (Probably the more common case)
With the people who are upset that people think youre a Pbear - If the shoe dont fit what you upset about? Just stop going to balmung on your lala ez fix. Also you dont get banned from venues for being a lala, you get banned for ERPing on a lala.
it's more about the fact that accusing someone of being a pedophile can have serious life damaging ramifications. obviously that isn't going to happen because of a video game, but people are still going to get defensive about it.
@@magicman25103 If youre attracted to something that looks like a child you need help. Nuff said. If youre not doing it like i said - simple as saying "Oh i dont ERP" if youre on balmung or go there often - Dont be surprised when people assume.
@@ravenblade5035 Youre not wrong that it happens everywhere, theres 2 people who i had to blacklist from my venue because of it - and if they dont like it then they shouldnt let words on the internet get to them that badly - especially if the shoe dont fit - ALSO youre not a child no by lore - but you do look like one, so if youre attracted to that - GET HELP. If the shoe dont fit then why are you upset????
@@magicman25103 But in a context like this, where it would have no meaningful effect on your life unless you're running around the game blurting out real life identifying information, and you know they're not operating on any meaningful information when making that accusation...
@@ravenblade5035 It doesn't matter what they are. They look like children, so people treat them like children. If you don't like how your Lalafel is treated, just pick a different race. You are in full control of that.
why don't they complain about gear progression like they do for RP stuff?
The ffxiv community is not as small as you think it is.
This video gave me life. Also as a Miqo'te, I would absolutely put a litterbox in my house because that's funny as fuck.
I'm a lalafell and I dont like this chair. I really wish Square Enix didn't force me at gunpoint to put it in my house.
People complaining about the high chair are mad because they’ve spent yesrs trying to pretend they arnt ERPing as a child and now get reminded that they’re creepy
I'm a lalafell and I wasn't upset at al by this chair, it's a joke and i love how funny it is
Me as a lalafell: how DARE you
Also me: *looking for an excuse to start the great lalafell wars!*
The "shortest" war on record
@@jyon2359 *calls Chris Hansen* 👀😝
I personally think it would be funny if someone told me to sit in the children's corner in RP venues with the other lalafells :) Not being taken seriously and also not taking things serious is one of the best parts about playing the silly joke race. If you take yourself seriously and cant joke about yourself then im sorry to say but lalafell might not be for you. Now we just need a mount that is a bike with training wheels.
i mean i hope theyre speaking for themselves. I have a sense of humor and I think Lala highchairs are a wonderful addition to the game. Yes I mean highchair like for babies. Not just "lala chairs" If they hate being a lalafell and hate the cutesy lala community they shouldn't be one. The allyship and humor between the players of that race are so close and so wonderful I'm jealous if im not one.
My new favourite Genre of comedy: Lalas making a joke out of themselves.
Some of them are wild in the worst way.
"we're not children, stop infantilising us!!!" - throws fit over a damn chair
"you make a joke about Lalas, you're racist" - appears to be the only race hyperfixated on races?!
while watching this, I was in my medium house, wondering what to do downstairs, in the sections bellow the stairs, when arrive the moment of inspiration because of this chair. I'm gonna do a children... I mean lalafell table where they can go and draw or eat while everyone else have fun dancing, so we don't see them. Out of sight, out of mind :)
It's like the kid with a single mom, waiting for her to get done stripping.
Fun fact - lack of beards in this game is what made me pick Lalafell as a race.
If I'm not gonna be able to be a viking warrior-type character, I'll just go with the comic support option and be a tiny tank.
Also yes Lalafell isn't looked at weirdly in jp it's western society that kinda looks at them creeply
I don't understand NA's obsession with associating anything remotely child-like or cute as pedophilia.
Lala's do look like kids, and anyone offended or insisting they don't is kinda sus.
Do they? Khloe looks like a kid, lalas look like chibis or inflatable garden gnomes imo
It's ERP places that don't let in lalas, not general RP places. And the reason why is they look like kids. Of course the problem players are the ones who don't understand why that isn't something people are cool with in an ERP setting.
It goes beyond not letting them, they hunt for places that do and try to burn th house down
Good! I can finally see over my counter
TRUE. I can only see most of the time w/ my forehead lol

EXACTLY my thoughts. To quote Saitama when he gets hate mail: "Here's a guy with a lot of time on his hands."
Imagine having so little to concern yourself with that you genuinely get upset when a joke item isn't meant to be taken seriously. It's called the Lalafell Lifter for crying out loud, I don't think this was Squeenix's genuine attempt at making some potato friendly furniture.
I mean I'm not a lala and I freaking love this chair it goes really well with my room 😌 I mean just ask for more lala chairs instead of asking for this one to b removed so weird.
