And currently some of the biggest content creators are discussing how the FF fandom can improve as a community.

To make the conversations better and to prevent gatekeeping.

That's also why people posted this:

That's also why people posted this:

the ff fans has always been like this since xv

deeming xv/vs 13 as non canon non mainline ff

Jeez

It's been like this since X, for me.

This is solely the number one reason why some people leave certain fandoms and interests because of civil war breakouts like this

Every game that isn't on 7's "untouchable" level gets roasted to Hell.

Normies like MaxDoode talk about how much FF7 meant to him as a child when he's just another generic Tifa stan; it's annoying

Oh same here

7 is stale.

And it's the fandoms fault

I started to change my approach in terms of fandoms after I experienced how people deal with it in FFXIV. Like in the XIV community people get really mad if you call the story in general shit. But in terms of expansion stories people don't really care that much. Like if you say that you like Shadowbringers more than Endwalker and you explain why most people will say "oh yeah I liked that part in Shadowbringers too but personally I prefer Endwalker because of...."

It just leads to so much healthier discussions

I remain at a neutral stance for 14, but I'm loving it so far

I don't like MMO's but 14 has blitzball so good for them I guess

Yes usually mmos aren't my thing either, but I made 14 an exception

A certain part in Shadowbringers for example was very controversial but the perception changed over time because people replayed it and the game being so text-heavy caused people to miss some parts. Same for Endwalker btw. I think I have never had a very negative discussion regarding parts in XIV. I really love talking about the game and how other people feel about certain parts of the story

I'm still in ARR, but loving it so far

Post stuff like that in please

No.

He asked nicely.

Every conversation I have with Inari is just:

This side of the ff fandom is a bunch of mouth breathers who have ignored how amazing the ff games have been for about a decade now

they're those inept chuckle-nuts who post under every FF post, regardless of relevance "GiVe Us FF VErSUS 13 boo hoo hoo"

I mean that's why Yozora almost got his own game but everyone loves him

well thats because nomura is petty

That's why I'm not stoked he's basically putting V13 into KH but everyone seems to not mind.
