Asmond is one step closer to being a professional ERP
@@Sheepdog_Alpha friend of Almond.
Esfandgold
He better work on his emote rotations
Didn't the FF community hate asmon before he started to shill for their game? Now you guys all like him?
@@jonton9228 what are you talking about?
To the players who just hang out doing their own thing and make the place lively without cluttering Asmon’s screen.
Respect.
This needs more updoots
While i read this comment asmon has a giant snowbears arse in his face 😂😂😂
It's the kind of thing you know the barre is so low being a normal person doing the minimum is considered respectable :'D
He’s a cool guy but hot DAMN people actin like Drake is in FFXIV
yeah, ppl following him around certainly have come along way to respect his space much better now.
One correction to what Alex said: the main reason for Square's rejection of mods is not anything to do with NSFW content, regardless of what gets modded with those or not. The *main* reason is Japan and their local laws about third party software. They are very strict about it to the point where Square could be held liable if they were to be found of "promoting" mods in any capacity. That is the reason why intellectual property is such a big deal there to begin with, you can see it on how strict they are about console manipulation, like with Nintendo and Sony. Zepla actually did a video about this (forgot the name) and this all comes from Yoshi-P himself, so this is not speculation or hearsay. I doubt they care about NSFW stuff considering... well, I mean, just look as Asmongold here and the people around him, lmao.
And that is basically why they make little distinction between an ACT, a nude mod or even an upscale mod. At the end of the day, all of it is third-party software, so they HAVE to disavow all of it. They have their hands tied on this.
Thanks for the info
People seems to not understand this for some reason. As long as SE rejects modding, nothing will happen.
They do not care about any modding whatsoever. They HAVE to take action if you get ''reported'' for it due to their own rules, but they will never go out of their way and say ''ok FF is done with modding''.
@Jay Bee You're naive. They have to pretend they care because of legality issues, both the ones mentioned above concerning third-party software, but also the potential damage to the brand of the game if NSFW mods in particular get out of hand. If such things become too strongly associated with the game and/or negatively impact other players' experience, it may cause officials to question if FF14's game rating is accurate, and some countries have very strict laws about games with sexual content - as in, some of them flat out ban it. The devs _have_ to at least give lip-service to discouraging people from using mods, but as long as the people using them are reasonable and don't overtly advertise it or attach the FF14 logo or brand name to what they're doing, then there's no need for them to take any overt or strict action about it. As long as they have plausible deniability, they can overlook it - but it relies on the people using mods to avoid being stupid about it... which is why I'm fairly sure that it's one day going to come crashing down and SE will have to crack down, either because some people are too stupid to control themselves or because bad actors will deliberately sabotage it.
Thank you
@@Draeckon then it is our duty as the community to prevent that as much as possible so this doesn't happen. For now I think modding community is still too small when compared to the entire ffxiv playerbase so bad actors can't really do anything cuz most players don't even know modding exist
They'll ignore it as long as it doesn't affect other players' game experience and doesn't give the brand or company a bad reputation. So if you do it, don't make a ruckus about it.
Whether you like it or not it does effect the game experience. Highly degenerate community leads to a fuck ton of whore house advertisements in the chat, in game stalkers, and people thinking it’s ok to say weird creepy and weird things to other players. Really brings the community down.
@@gloomywheel8378 what you are saying is definitely true and make sense, but in my experience I really dont feel an impact that much.
@@jequiti6057 its hard to get a good measure on the effects. All i can say is that i definitely see way way more creepy behavior in final fantasy than I do in alot of other games i play.
@@gloomywheel8378 aye, when you're 18+ you'd think ppl would be know a bit better before diving deep into those things. Some ppl though man.... ugh just were not raised well to respect others. Can appreciate what our parents taught us growing up.
I think the brothel thing would be happening even without the modding, tbh. Maybe it exacerbates it, but the brothels are pretty recent compared to how long we’ve had a modding community
Somewhere, a wild McConnell is REEEEEing his heart out while watching this.
I wouldn't blame him, game's disgusting lmao
@@jonton9228 Nice bait 🤡
@@TheVenhammer This must be an example of the "nice community".
The game is a perverted mess and there's no denying it, just look at the video.
I bet 10mio McConnell is there two silent. It’s always the same the people that scream the loudes against it are the people that are most into it
@@jonton9228 if you look into the skyrim mod section you'll truly see hell. very naive take lmao
INB4 asmon starts his first erp glamour contest
That would get sooo many people banned fast
@@rexex345 pretty sure no matter what combination of glamour pieces you have on, it wouldn't get banned. And if it's modded stuff, Asmon would only see in game versions.
Tldr he should do ERP glamour contest
This game is disgusting on many levels 😐
@@jonton9228
Which levels? How disgusting? Need to check if you actually have valid constructive criticism, something like "the gameplay isn't that good because xyz aspects" would do.
@@NuclearRaven13 do you have eyes? 🤔
Everyone is half naked, and spends all their time erping because the rest of the game is a grind. You're probably the type of person who would defend people erping as the Lallafell
One thing I've learned over the years is modding the game is a lot like Fight Club. Rule #1 About Fight Club, WE DON'T TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB.
Don't make videos of it
Don't brag about it and most importantly
DON'T give people grief over things like ACT or a DPS check.
And like Fight Club, The movie is based on the fact that the "hero" suffer from huge mental issue. In that case, Skyzophrenia, but in FFXIV case, how would we call it? Weeb/Creep sounds way too light for whats looks like a real pathology.
@@carnageslim3033 really?
If you dont interact with the modding community actively it's super hard to learn this. Unspoken rules dont get spoken about so it's hard for people outside the spheres to learn
The person he interviewed however has been modding for long enough to know better and should be entirely responsible for the blame
@@carnageslim3033 The only fucking correlation to fight club is the rule, dont talk about it. Its not that deep, youre reaching. Hulk profile guy.
@@wickedraptor2651 Yeah that's true. As I've told people before, "do your homework before messing around with that. Find modding communities, ask around. I won't give names, you have to know whom to talk to and whatever you do...DO NOT ASK IN GAME. Browse on Discord channels, 3rd party websites that sort of thing."
This is cool. Its like Channel 5 or All Gas No Breaks version for FF14, interviewing various sub cultures in the game. Raiders, ERPers, RPers, crafters, etc. Love it
It's not that deep
Wait, Asmon had no idea about the blender stuff? Blender is the only reason why Overwatch could survive that long.
you mean SFM?
@@sjwoo13 most overwatch smut makers switched away from sfm a couple years back. The really high quality stuff is all produced in blender.
@@sjwoo13 you're behind a few years bud.
@@alejandrorivas4585 O dang. I'm out the loops.
The moment Asmon realizes it's not the journey, it's the friends we made along the way. Fuck leveling and progression, let's just do this now!
Put it back in your pants bro
Yeah but the journey and the entire game is just weeb junk though 🤔
@@jonton9228 sure thing buddy whatever floats your boat.
@りずきくん just ignore that guy, he’s purposely saying shit about ffxiv in some of his recent posts here. Got destroyed by the way lol
@@tsukiyumio3467 did you even look at the video? Everyone is half naked and all they do is erp with each other and yet everyone wants to act like this is some wow killer. And if you say anything negative about the game 900 anime profile pictures will start malding at you. Case and point. 🤔
I have cold sweats from remembering the Live Letter from patch 5.2 where Yoshida spent 30 minutes talking about these mods telling players who used it to have decency and the problems they can cause to the game.
Man needs to stop being a prude and embrace degeneracy
@@tigerfestivals5137 If I remember correctly, the problem YoshiP had with it is the potential for these degeneracy rings to start becoming pedophiliac in nature and how much unwanted attention that can bring. Which is, you know, completely understandable.
@@tigerfestivals5137 Yoshida is absolutly reasonable in his takes, tho.
@@tigerfestivals5137 Yoshi is objectively right, along with Sigurd just proving my point. You're objectively wrong and your take isn't exactly the greatest.
@@Aregulargameplayer Most of what he talked about was the fact that the game could literally get banned for it in certain coutries.
That's why he was pleading with people not to put NSFW screenshots on Twitter and such.
It's an issue with the game's rating too. Completely understandable honestly.
Watching Asmon work through FFXIV and speaking to these different players and learning about this game with him is such an amazing series.
All Gas No Hair in the description has to be an official event in asmon's stream from time to time
Lost it at "I gotta go back to church."
TAKE ME TO CHURCH ⛪
he knows he's about to sin real bad, needs to balance the chequebooks as they say 😂
Churches have big crosses in them iykwim
I love how fearful he looks in that picture.
Honestly... That first screenshot was art.
Don't know how people even started this.
The problem with mods is not so much about what they do but the focus on it going into the limelight.
Exactly. With Asmon sticking his nose in things and putting all this in the spotlight he could potentially cause a LOT of trouble for the people who DO this sort of thing.
@@darethshiral2680 it's entirely possible he had no idea of the nuance or donts of the modding community. The person he interviewed does and should've known better
Yeah, there's a *HUGE* "Fight club" rules around mods, but unlike ACT, they have came out against mods clearly and decisively >.>;
Doubt anything will happen, but it still is a little uh oh
@@darethshiral2680 I don’t think it’s his responsibility though? It’s against terms of service and Square Enix already knows about it and has said they don’t like it, I don’t think anyone should be expecting him to follow unwritten rules of a modding community he’s not even a part of.
@@houndsanddirewolves Also the people he does talk with know about said unwritten rules and still went on stream to talk about it, noone forced them to do it hell Asmon wasnt even sure if she would actually do it till last minute.
The best thing about these interviews is how Asmon shows all the facets of the game with an open mind. I am sure being acknowledged means a lot for ERPers and after seeing all the interactions with them they are not as bad as people make them to be.
I can imagine Asmon starting a new channel for video games called 'All Gas No Hair'

@@DarkAndromeda31 I know, that's where I got it from
17:00 yeah, thats one of the downsides, when I started playing female characters it was awkward with some people, until I would get in vent. TBH it NEVER gets old to have my voice come through and hear the shocked reaction from the creep. .....I will say that in the last few years I think everyone assumes Im a 40 year old man, so it doesnt happen that often anymore, and genuinely speaking I think the community has just matured a bit.
Its amazing how many people dont know MMORPG = Many Men Online Role Playing Girls and girl= guy in real life. Its safer to just assume everyone is a dude bro and apologize to the real women lol.
@@Uko980 kek, this. Assume everyone is a dude and things go better.
If it's a girl, it's a guy... If it's a guy, it's a guy... If it's a Lalafel, it's the FBI... & Yes I am a 30 y/o M playing as a bad bitch Viera 🤣
@@FnTk But the Viera only has female option so you're fine.
Considering how many women play this game, I lean towards 60% - 70% chance any given in-game female being an actual male, and to be proven wrong on occasion. Some people seem approach it as 95% likelihood of IG female being RL male, but it seems like an overstatement in FFXIV. Other games that appeal less to women, I totally get the full male assumption.
I was born into the degenerate corners of the internet so I guess I take for granted how weird it is lmao -- Asmon being so scandalized and shocked by this sort of thing will never fail to make me laugh
Yeah, this is nothing new nor surprising compared to what Skyrim modding has in THAT website.

When you are running to catch up to the endgame players and imagine them raiding and grinding for Endwalker
And then you see what the endgame players are actually doing
Welcome to the real endgame lmfao
Raiding and grinding for ew pfff this here is the endgame 😂
IMO, this is the healthiest endgame a MMORPG community can ever get. You log in, hangout and social with people, just having silly fun. As long you keep certain degree of stuff that's definitely too much for others privately, of course.
@@elvismanuelgonzalezdavila8949 And there you have it, FF14 has no endgame so the only thing players do is cyber each other
@@jonton9228 if anything that's good because it has limitless possibilities for wholesome fun with everyone lol
"It's gotta be kept under the radar" Proceeds to interview with huge streamer about it... O.o
This. This. I wish he'd take this video down.
It’s a little ironic yeah
Lol right? Don't talk about it...here's a video of an interview with a modder. Great.
you could reportbombing this vid if you don't like it.
@@faithambrose5674 why? no names were said so like how would they know who is doing what?
if these things got spotlighted, the protection of silence and secrecy towards these groups will be eroded and then, maybe, gone...
asmon, careful, there are people who are highly vocal at being AGAINST ERP mods, and the community, within mmos...
@Some Guy it’s weird anyway
those people that are so vocal against it, should more or less get some help, that is not a healthy mindset.
Like the eRPer said that he was interviewing. SE makes a shit ton of money off the Mog Station specifically from eRPers. They are at the end of the day a business and no business says no to free money. They won't pursue the modders any more than they already are. Unless you are blatant and stupid about it, it's just an open secret.
@@phinix473 Yes because having a game that children can play have people turn it into a sex fantasy when they are married irl is definitely a healthy mindset. The ERP community is the most toxic waste part of the game, it would be 1000% better without them; and I'm not just talking about the mods I'm talking about the people because they are literally the worst kind of people. You know what I'm talking about if you have ever actually *been* in a club scene behind the scenes for example.
@@noonenowhere877 Rule 34 is a cesspool people joke about and never actually interact with. And comparing the whole of the internet to a singular game is a bit hyperbolic. Lastly, I never said they go clubbing irl? I see where you misunderstand, what I meant is the in game club scene. They are just horrible people that spread nasty rumors about people just to hurt them. I was in the scene for while but the amount of human trash in there is insane. It's a huge problem in the (E)RP scene in general; mods, rp, all of it.
Squenix: This Asmongold is bringing us so much attention and new players, why do blizzard hate him so much?
*3 weeks later*
Squenix: Stop making us look like second life! Rude bald man!
Hopefully there not that stupid enough to get ride of a free advertisement
Hopefully
*glares at blizzard*
With all the other things they do in JP, I don't think enix cares as long as you don't bother or harrass anyone else.
@@severedproxy Not exactly. They don't like R18 mods at all, since it makes potential newcomers get the wrong impression about the game. Modding is kind of in a 'don't ask don't tell' situation. It isn't allowed, but since it only affects client side they won't ban you unless they get evidence of it.
Rip servers haha
Nah. This stuff is actually super super rare in FFXIV. It's just that these people are all circling around Asmon because he's willing to interview them as 'scandal' makes for clicks.
I do think that the mods can get the game banned in certain regions which is the main reason as to why they don’t want people posting it around. Porn and gambling is very strict and different rules govern them around the world
Good thing smart people like Alex here go onto the biggest streamer the game has to talk about and show mods.
As long as the publisher does not endorse them officially, nothing can happen to the game.
@@kalashnikov1343 it’s the posting it around that’s the issue and making it public
@@kalashnikov1343 I think people seeing in game characters doing literal sex actions which is actually from the game and not fan art would be a problem for the perception of the game. Like imagine being a parent seeing ff14 characters in bondage they wouldn’t let their child play the game. Same goes with governments, they could ban the game not knowing exactly what’s going on and there isn’t anything square Enix can do about it. There’s a reason SE and Yoshi P don’t endorse the mods and people get banned
@@kalashnikov1343 it’s because people would post stuff that’s illegal in certain countries, and since it’s from SEs game, they could be liable.
But mostly it’s probably an image thing I would guess.
The first thing you discover when you go to a modding site is the fact that nearly every single character has the exact same body model well-hidden behind animations.
This isn't unknown, it's the reason they can't add crazy races in the game like the bangaa.
“Needs to be kept quiet. SE doesn’t like when we do it.”
Also. Let’s just talk about it on stream that will be on youtube for hundreds of thousands of viewers. *facepalm*
He's not doing it, and they can't see her screen so they can't prove that she is
@@LordlyWeeb I understand that as far as accounts being banned probably not, but the fact that it was just thrown into the spotlight like this is enough to get the people that create the mods to panic. Already were seeing everybody go private and taking all of their stuff off of any kind of archive.
Mods have always been, don’t ask, don’t tell policy. Like SE knows about it. But because it doesn’t affect gameplay or give any kind of unfair advantage they more or less turned a blind eye. However, if you get reported for somethings they do have to investigate and people have been banned/suspended for them.
I was always really careful about who I took screenshots with because a few years ago there were players, usually PS4 but not always, that would solicit screenshots and then turn around and report said photographer, getting their account banned.
So no, directly this probably doesn’t do anything but indirectly it’s a ripple effect. There is a whole slew of unforeseen consequences that might arise as a result, consequences and effects that didn’t need to be there.
In the grand scheme of things, is it as violating as say parsing that has the hook into the game to be able to pull stats? Probably not. But if enough attention gets drawn to it, than enough people will backlash, literally forcing SEs hand to save face. Even if they themselves don’t necessarily care about it, when you’re dealing with an MMO that’s a business, perception is everything.
@Kael when is there not drama on Twitter?
@@GGMEHD never. Lol.
They obviously know all about it.
ERP Modder: Yeah, people get mods to see boobas
Asmongold: This is amazing
ERP Modder: and horse futas
Me: **spends the remainder of the video trying to deduce if someone is running with a horse wiener around sitting Asmon and slaps him with meat**
Been playing FFXIV since 2.0 came out and I've never encountered these modders outside of when Asmon was talking about them. If you google some of this stuff it's fairly obscure with low activity counts.
They make for good "OMG the scandal" views on TH-cam and twitch, but they're good at keeping themselves out of the limelight and unless you put a lot of effort into finding them or happen to be a famous streamer willing to engage, you'll never encounter these folks in FFXIV.
Just go to the quick sand on Balmung, it's the literal equivalent of goldshire, so no, it's fairly widespread.
@@MadKirkegaard "it's fairly widespread" = the one server on one data center known for rp, in one location in the whole world map. What a take.
He's also talking about *modding* which isn't the same as what you're reffering to which is RP.
@@leubzo1436 tbf: it’s not the one server. It’s pretty much the entire data center, crystal is pretty well known for being the RP community. Balmung and Mateus sitting higher up on the top of that, and some being more content based than others. But they’re still heavily filled with rp’ers
I see at least one advertisement in chat every hour tho for a whore house
@@gloomywheel8378 that's rp, the guy is talking about modding, no one advertises modding, because you'd get banned.
Just so you are aware, videos like this are extremely dangerous for the modding community. The exposure isn't something we want, tbh.
Yes, we wouldn't want the devs to learn about our secret underground modding community.... As if they haven't talked about it dozens of times and as if people don't spam twitter with modded screenshots. You people freaking out in the comments need to calm down.
Do you think they'll really go after modders?
@@War450 I personally haven't seen anyone freaking out about it, but I do see people rightfully concerned. You can never be too careful, after all. I'm well aware of the dev team knowing about it since I've been playing since 2014 & really Yoshida lowkey allows it lmao but we don't want them to enforce anything.
@@tigerfestivals5137 Not right now, no, but they could in the future if people go overboard with everything. Modders make them a lot of money, so it'll take quite a bit, but still.
Well, ERP and RP is not exactly a secret. Heck, if what Im told about JP role play is true, its a lot more degenerate and expansive there.
Honestly, Square won't do anything that upset JP players. RP scene is massive in JP, its so big there a lot of people subscribe to FF XIV just to RP.
Compared to that, this is just surface level. And no way the developer doesn't know about this side of community, did you see how many (+18) rp party finders and screenshot modders service in peak time? Unlike WoW dev, FF XIV play their own game and are aware. And they play on JP server, which like I said earlier a lot more degenerate.
"It's fine as long as it stays under the radar", she says in an public interview, with the most prominent streamer this game has. Videos like these are going to force Square Enix's hand, these are what will cause the crackdown you were asking about.
Are you sure about that?
Well, tbh Japan ERP community is a lot more degenerate especially outside of Elemental, if what Im told is true.
And Square won't do anything to upset their Japanese players tbh, ERP and RP is really expansive and expresive there for this game.
That's the thing tho, the community knows about it, and the devs know about it. The problem is when rating boards learn about it, getting an Adult rating would mess them up badly, they talked about this multiple times.
@@Edheldui online interaction rarely ever affect a game rating though,. and honestly ESRB is a joke, you can just bribe it.
@@Edheldui if that were the case, games with mods like skyrim would have had an adult rating long ago, but it doesn't.
A correction: SE's rejection of mods has nothing to do with NSFW content. But it does prevent SE from having to address questions about which mods are fair or benign, and which are game-breaking, negative, or in some countries illegal. Nor is it on SE to accommodate those who make a living from the game, whether they are raid clear sellers, housing designers, venue owners or streamers. It is the job of the player to stay within the ToS (or not). Any "gray area" exists only because people generally know better than to publicly advertise.
NSFW modded screenshots of Lala's actually ARE problem because of the potential image of being associated with CP. That's a huge no-go and would prompt YoshiP to crack down hard on the mods.
@@cheerfulgestalt3282 Yes. Absolutely. And he has specifically spoken about this to the player base.
Once you start ERPing, there's no going back. I have friends who became addicted to ERPing, used up all their money on it, and started selling ERPing to make money to do more ERPing.

Well yeah. Regardless of what programs are used just don't openly talk on it. Apparently it's very difficult to understand *sigh* 😕
Never head about Anamesis before your comment, is it better than CMTools?
@@anglerfishtanking I use both but the Anamesis is much better as it let's you work the bones, it takes some getting used to also I think it's much more fluid on moving people around. It is also easier to use your carbuncle as a secondary when running around and wanting to gpose :)
This was so funny omg. Asmon reactions to this content is hilarious. It’s honestly a pretty diverse community. Like people are really finding their enjoyment in anything
Japanese culture is like this in general.. as long as it doesn't get out of hand..leave it alone
Honestly that is a generally libertarian (idea, not party) view.

You guys are literally going to be the reason why the modding community , erp community and venue community get cracked down on and eliminated by SE. You are saying too much and already people are making forum posts about these interviews and talking about the grand reckoning that is going to be the result of these videos. All because you want 5 minutes of fame in an asmongold video, you would be the reason why these communities go down bad. Congrats, you just opened up a can of worms you can't go back on. Now I'ma sit back and watch the shit show unfold.
Void bunny is bragging about how upset the modding community is on their twitter. @Sh4dowbunny
A suggestion, report bomb this vid.
I think that's one thing that I really respect about the modding community of ffxiv, especially the cosmetic ones who are in game gear. You actually have to finish some of the savage raids to get some of the truly nicer pieces either way. So it's actually still going to be a grind to get some of that gear that looks amazing modded.
The modding community keeps everything on brand and very much respects the system that they have set up. That's wholesome in a way that I've not seen in many other communities when it comes to modding and they have a lot that caters to everyone's needs and interests which is Way more than I can say about a lot of other video games modding communities.
There is a program called CM Tool which will swap the appearance of any piece of gear with another - you can even swap the templates for gear that is no longer available in the game. You want a mog station hat that costs real world money because it has a mod tied to it? No need to purchase, just use CM Tool to swap to it. Modders don't have to grind for or pay for the gear they're modding.
one rule of word, keep it to yourself don't go spoiling it for everyone
I’m so upset that she says it’s not to be talked about but proceeds to talk about it on a live stream with a big twitch streamer 🤦🏾♀️
It can be talked about, just not in-game. By not to be talked about, just not /shouting it in game constantly, or making ads for your mods in-game.

The best mod is a Lalafel mod. It turns them into Christmas presents with legs.
Lol that sounds hilarious
@@zondor8123 Which is funny considering how many times lalafels are sexualized in the game by the devs themselves. See: The one lalafel "lusting for ardberts loins".
Like the demon box?
@@RockR277 I don't think you know what sexualization is. Sexualization doesn't require overt porn my man. Sexualization is simply bringing something to a sexual context. Saying a lalafel girl wants to bang the warrior of light is, by definition, sexualization. Because reading that instills in you the exact same thought and imagery as if it was an outright picture. You know what sex is, you know what ardbert and the lalafel look like, doesn't take much to piece things together.
SE does this all the time. "Noo don't sexualize Ryne!" and then they release the shiva trial where she literally strips nude in front of you.
Also remember that Lalafels are full grown adults so anything concerning them is akin to things concerning real life dwarfs, not children.
@@War450 I guess? I must be remembering the story wrong. I knew she was in love with him but I couldn't recall any explicit mention her wanting to take it from him.

She's right tho. I'm a woman and once some player knew and heard my voice... I got stalkers or improper convo with them and I just left and blocked. Meeting real girls on games is so rare for them they have to stalk them...
bruh, yeah that is stupid. Would have been better if they were like”oh a girl” Hi there and then just you know being casual and not treating it like the absolute biggest deal ever and just been friendly overall…
As someone who really not got into FF14 a few months ago what do people mean about bad graphics? I've seen NEW MMOs that look awful in comparison. It feels like such an exaggeration to say the game looks bad or even like RuneScape.
It's okay, but look at the *pixels*. The character models are rough. You have minecraft blocks for fingers. Your model is almost rubbery (if you're not a newer race, Viera are new and look better). At first it's not bad, but you really start to see the game's age with playtime.
@@christabelle__ yeah close ups are pretty bad, the edges are pixelated badly etc.
The modder should never gone through with this interview.
Now a bunch of spotlights are on the modding scene which has already been warned by Naoki Yoshida NOT to do to themselves. Witch hunts are going on where people are looking for posts of people with mods to report to get them banned.
This isn't Asmongold's fault, he couldn't have possibly known how precarious things are, but the person that came up to Asmongold for this interview certainly is, they compromised their own community.
He's also at fault. He knew beforehand that modding isn't ok. Don't be naive. People should turn him down for this stuff in general. It's just a way for them to swing from his nuts which is really sad. This is a video game and people feel the need to jockey on someone's stream. It's really sad. Apparently the interviewees name is already been put out. Waiting for her ban so I can giggle. Also these "how to make gil" videos need to stop as well because they are saturating the market dramatically and forcing people to switch markets, thus saturating the newly changed to market. It causes a huge ripple effect.
What that interviewee didn't expect, she just launched a witch hunt on every RP/ERPer and modders out there.
There's a reason we don't talk about this ever.
I remember filling in for a raid group in pf back in SB. They decided to use the naked strat on the painting boss and this one chick in the party was just kinda losing her mind over her own nude mods. It was definitely an experience.
I've never been interested in texture/shader/lighting mods. Partly because I'm too lazy, partly because whenever I see screenshots or gameplay using some of those mods, it's all bright and gaudy and bright. Doesn't really look that good to me.
Finally someone with the some view on some of the mods and shaders. It's always way to bright and most things just look soo weird. Almost like wax figures. Not just in FFXIV. Mods and shaders for most people seem to be "MAX brightness, weird lightning=Beautiful".
@@yourdude9942 I kinda just use a shader that makes the environment sharper(?) Clearer? Mostly for cutscenes, but yeah I’m not a fan of super filtered looking screenshots, kinda like irl too lmao
I've been in a game modding scene and its a battlefield ... Posting mods without credits, claiming ideas or erasing watermark, selling stolen mods, etc...
I love how the chat spamming "IT'S REAL GIRL" at the beginning
If you get married in-game you can teleport to each other. If you break up and divorce the person and the other person does not divorce you THEY CAN STILL TELEPORT TO YOU xD
the whole hanging in cantina watching or listening players performance reminds me Star Wars Galaxies pre-NGE when there was legit musician, entertainer, dancer classes in the game I think there was even a fashion designer who can change your characters look as a class.
Very true..you had to watch the dancers or listen to music to remove poison and disease...Such a amzing game pre-NGE
Yeah I dunno why they straight up removed these aspects of the game.
When Asmongold is blushing at Screenshots of his Character getting femmdommed on. Lol
The fact she starts the interview with one of the biggest streamers, who has the attention of Square, by saying "It's gotta be kept under the radar"
Irony at its best. Hope everyone realized the damage this interview can cause.
This is what I have loved about Final Fantasy ever since I jumped in. The game has some flaws, but the community is incredible.
I would suggest you not touch the topic of modding, as it tends to be a fast track to getting DMed by a GM and getting suspended. I'm sure you have your network connections and are relatively safe, but it wouldn't be hard for a GM to go and see who you were interacting with and rightfully ban those people. I'm all for people doing what they do so long as it doesn't hurt anyone else, but people giddy about talking to a celebrity without much foresight into what could happen to them should really be more cautious if they opt to take part in such things.
Asmon gets triggered by his no nipple male char... me i get triggered by his full armory chest!
Im sure there is a mod community for edgy stuff too, like dark knight on a horse with wings and the moon glowing behind, not just erotic stuff. I think asmon would like that.
Lalafells are off limits in Modding. They are perfect as is.
This will absolutely NOT end well. Telling you for your own good, this was a very, VERY bad idea.
Who cares, it's a game.
@@hexadroid6884
Speaking as someone who clearly doesn't understand.
@@solitonmedic
Joeri Thienpoint strikes me as someone who doesn't care, as opposed to someone who doesn't understand.
ToU for this is basically the same as WOW, modifying game files is a no-no. For FFXIV that also extends to things like DPS meters, because FFXIV doesn't support addons, so you have to modify game files to do it. That said, I'm apparently in the wrong line of work.
You have definitely not been around the type of community that loves games like ff14. I came from Playstation 3 where this thing called PS Home existed and many of them went to ff14. It's a Second Life thing. Modders always have been a part of that because they were a part of these other games I mentioned, because if people love a thing, they do what they can to make it more theirs.
Dps meter doesnt modify anything. It reads the combat log file.
So she plays strictly ENDGAME.😀😀
Someone should introduce him to the Skyrim and Fallout 3/4/NV Lovers Lab modding community.
Imagine if Void Bunny gets banned because of this lool
Time for Asmon to visit Balmung on crystal.
WOO! HE CAN COME VISIT MY SERVER!
Kind of sucks people that know that modding is not allowed are going on hunts trying to get people banned. This kid of sucks on of my friends got hit via social media being traced back to their in game name and avatar via screenshot. This is cool content but attention the modding scene really didn't need. For every comical or quality of life mod like skin texture or a mod to the way a sword looks or glows there is other stuff. We can't keep the scene on the down low if there are video's like this sadly.
One thing that didn't get brought up but is a huge feature of the modding community is that they tend to resolve visual issues in the game WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY before the dev team does it officially. One example is feet without sandals. If you remove your shoes, your character has sandals on. The dev team has been asked in the past if there would be a way to have a barefooted option, and they said that it would be very difficult given that the sandals add a bit of height to the model, alter the geometry of feet because toes aren't rendered at all, just textured, etc. Anyway, within like a month of that statement, there were already mods out for barefooted models that fixed the issue in its entirety, and they've been around for literal years now while the official game refuses to approach a solution. While there are definitely a billion different sexual mods, there are also a large number of cosmetic mods, texture upgrades, upscales, etc. that just improve the graphical quality of life without veering into what some might deem "weird" territory. Have you always wanted a character with cascading, curled hair? Mods can do that. Want your Au Ra tail to be twice as long? Easy with mods. Want your Miqo'te tail wrapped in jewelry and gemstones? Sure thing!

What these past two interviewees have not made super clear is that while the rabbit hole is very deep and that's where they come from (and that's perfectly fine), there is also plenty of people that do these things at all levels. You don't have to ERP if you RP. You don't have to live in a sex dungeon if you just want to ERP. You can go to a club and dance without strippers. You can give your male char cool facial hair without bothering with everyone's HD tits. The community is as wide as it is deep for these sorts of "micro games" as Asmon put it, so there's room for everyone! The game lets the players make the fun more than most MMOs today for sure, it's worth exploring.
i can hear every one on moonguard and argent dawn logging out right now and making a ffx account
WoW: Man there's so much weird sex stuff in Goldshire.
FF14: We have a player-based grassroots sex industry that pays well scattered across most servers.
WoW has this too, just fyi
@@Ren99510 don't..don't, please do not compare the levels of significance to which these communities exist in their respective games.
both games have terrible communities - it's just that one is toxic through primarily shitty behaviour, and the other is toxic by displaying how fucked up their sexual fantasies are the majority of the time.
@@solar9610 this seems like a contradictory comment.
"don't..don't, please do not compare..."

Its really sad to me to see that too. What are they trying to get out of it. You can't tell who they are, no one cares either. THEY can see themselves, wow cool. You can look at your own screen for that
Modder: Don't mention this to anybody that your using that and that
In the video: Mention all the tools
Hey perhaps take a look at the actual RP community?? not all of us who RP are ERPers and before people shame us for modding the game *cough cough* mod hunters *cough cough* it doesn't actually hurt anyone and only affects the client side.
You make it sound like erp is bad. Its just as much roleplay as regular sfw roleplay is. You're all pretending to be someone or something you're not irl so I really don't see why the distinction matters that much. To the casual viewer, all of you are weirdos whether you rp or erp.
@@Prettywitch99 don't get me wrong, I enjoy ERP just as much as I enjoy regular RP however I've seen two video's he's done about the ERP side of FFXIV and just wish he'd do some interviews for the regular RP side as well

Please don't act like, "Oh no, there is attention to modding in ffxiv" as if Yoshi P hasn't already stated months ago to summarize, "Don't make it seem like SE is okay with erotic mods in FFxiv." So maybe have some self control and don't put modded screenshots on twitter with the official FFxiv hashtag or anything close to the official hashtag. The modding community already exposed their lack of tact a LONG time ago so don't get all pissy at this small moment that won't change much of anything.
Urm Asmon is putting it on youtube... not see a problem here? :P
@@under-dog5390 No more than what the community did themselves months ago. The Yoshi P response had nothing to do with asmon and that was modder making their own mistake far more public.
@@stevenalvarez2924 And that guy was penalised quite rightly. But if we are talking breaching ToS specifically Asmon has just done so and to a hell of alot of people.
It actually covers pornographic material (not just the one example you cited) and I don't think you can describe Asmon's character being involved in BDSM with his pants down as anything less than that.
If we are talking severity this is far more sever than having a couple of hundred followers on twitter (who actively seek it out) or something.
No matter how it's spun I would not be surprised at all if Asmon gets banned for a while which would also equally be warranted.
You think SE would be slower to ban than twitch? ToS covers a lot of things with any 3rd party being there. Never mind this was mostly talking instead of showing active modding. This isn't even the worst case scenario the modding community faced and those moments were caused by their own ego.
@@stevenalvarez2924 Well ofc it might not happen am just saying I wouldn't be surprised. From what I know hes not been on since this (I could be wrong tho) so from what I understand it's kinda up in the air as of yet.
Tbf he wasn't just talking about modding. He has done that before so now it seems he needed to up his game. He has gone from just talking to distributing the images to his audience (and to youtube) for money. Like it or not he is getting paid to do this.
So the equivalence isn't quite there. People who post screenshots of their characters are not getting paid to do so. If we sum up what he is actually doing he keeps focusing on the ERP community in order to up his views (and money) and keeps going deeper down that rabbit hole to chase that carrot.
I don't see it ending too well for him. He's not some no--body on twitter no-one has heard of afterall. It comes with the job that you have to be smarter than some rando that you will likely never see. If he's not putting the modding community at risk he is certainly putting himself at risk by doing what those people you are complaining about on twitter are doing... posting lewd screens of his character to a much larger audience. It's idiotic.
I just wanna say. I'm sorry, Alex, you had to quit. No harassment is justified. But you KNEW it would happen. Why throw yourself into the wolves den like that? I don't get it.
The "if it wasn't me, someone else would" argument is dumb af
Very much so...if she explained to Asmon why it'd be bad then he'd wouldn't have done it. But nah, now modding is in risk of being banned by SE.
4:05 The guy on the left side that turns only to judge you for the topic.
This feels.... like a pretty irresponsible interview given the precarity of modding in FFXIV and the amount of people who are weirdly vehemently against it.
It really irresponsible. She shouldn't had agreed to get interviewed.
how? no ingame names were said her name wasnt shared and its not like people who are in the ffxiv community or staff dont already know about this kind of thing.
@@DarkKeybladeMaster23 Putting a spotlight on anything, like what's been done here by a popular streamer who just joined the ffxiv community as a whole (and SE community team is definitely watching), will force SE to reevaluate their approach to these things and likely cause them to come down harder over it.
The person who agreed to do this interview is an idiot, putting their own hobby into a precarious situation where it may become much more difficult to continue doing.

For some reason Asmon's character rimds me of old Jesus portraits of being surrounded by children and people. I know he is in no way shape or form Jesus but it just came to me "his like jesus with all of those people around him and beard"
