Pyromancer gets derailed by so much as a pebble on his track. I like him when he is playing and interacting with the content, he cares and is engaged. It is a positive experience when he is positive. But the moment one random nobody says something easily ignorable he will just focus in on it and not let it go for far too long. I literally mute and tab for 20-30 minutes when that happens. He also seems to think chat is a person. He asks a question but does not understand that chat has a delay and is full of thousands of people with different latencies, so he will tell them to stop answering. I almost want to bring these kinds of gripes up as constructive criticism but don't out of a genuine concern it would just get me banned. I think he said he used to work at BestBuy before getting into streaming and when I think about that I imagine he would be the most miserable boss to work under if you fuck up or rub him the wrong way even the slightest.

I also found myself too uncomfortable to continue watching his streams during the Endwalker MSQ, and had to wait for VODs so I could skip over what became 40-50min arguments with chat over things I perceive as petty but obviously he doesn't. At the end of the day, it's his stream and his rules and you have to respect that. I just hope he is conscious of how he comes off as and how that may affect viewers in the long term.

The problem with Pyromancer, is that while it was entertaining at first you slowly find out he has genuine anger issues. I can't speak to what's going on in his life and I won't pretend HURR DURR STREM MONEY makes a sad person happy. It's just that this has happened, and happened, and happened and will happen. Pyromancer is also frequently enough at fault for just being a dickhead to people because he got angry at himself. He did the 2nd Trial in Endwalker with fans instead of with NPCs. Folks used the sad emoji because they thought the haha funny lore man would want to see the characters from the story interact. I believe he was short with them and tossed out an insult. What happened after though, was that he got super pissed at wiping on the trial and would constantly berate and insult the people in the group with him. Even a Healer that hit Rescue to pull him out of a mechanic he was standing in got the baby rage. The worst part about all this, is people constantly mention how they used to follow him and his content but left. I left too. It happens too often and his anger is too severe. When that happens, you can bet all he'll have watching are annoying people that love to see him get angry who will fuck with him until he does. Toxicity will breed itself in any community and if you want to have a meltdown frequently and laugh at or insult people off hand, expect your audience to love it and reciprocate. Dude had a gamer moment posing a question about people on console whether they prog Savage or not in an intentionally belittling way, over fucking hardware of all things. The guy is a man-child sometimes. Pyro needs therapy.

I liked watching Pyro, but stopped after he told everyone he was purposefully dropping ads during key moments to encourage people to sub. I had been subbed his whole journey through the MSQ, but his want to purposefully make the experience worse for free viewers really irked me. I get random ads hitting at inopportune times, or throwing a number of ads during a break, but purposefully hitting them at specific moments to manipulate your audience doesn't sit right with me. It speaks volumes to the type of person he is and his thankfulness to the community feels fake as a result. There was one time I was watching on my TV via the app not logged in(I think he was doing antitower) and I was pretty much cursing twitch for randomly putting ads at the most exciting times(Start of the dungeon, beginning of each boss fight, any point it changed location and he was taken back by the spectacle), now I realize he was hitting it himself and I feel dirty.

I used to watch Pyro until a few years back he did a video saying how his parents who he lived with were being evicted and they couldn't afford the rent. His next stream he was given thousands of Dollars in donations along with loads of bits, subs, gift subs and Prime subs for which he was thankful for and moved to tears multiple times. A week or two later he was unboxing new art prints, books and other merch. He stated that it was stuff pre-ordered before his video mentioned above when called out by viewers. Personally, I found it hard to believe all the items were not cancelable/refundable and all happened to arrive at the same but I didn't call it out. Many others did and the guy flipped out at the stream, it wasn't the first time I'd seen him be so toxic to his viewers but it was the last. I un-subbed to him on Twitch, Twitter and KZread.

Asmongold basically always sounds reasonable, or that he actually believes what he's saying. That's my 8Head analysis on this.

Early on I subbed to his stream, but saw him go off in a way that absolutely ruined his stream. He was acting like a child. He decided he was going to punish chat by logging out just to prove that his server didn't have a queue time, and then... got stuck in a 30 minute queue. He apologized and blamed issues in his life. I know it. I've been where he's at. I've raged at things, and felt spiteful, and have at time had anger issues that I've worked for years on. So I understand. But I also don't try and make a living off of entertaining a live audience where that shit is simply unacceptable. So after he apologized I didn't resub but still had him on follow and would watch from time to time. And he went off again and at that point I stopped entirely. And now hearing that he's gone off AGAIN it doesn't even surprise me anymore. He needs to get that shit under control since he's decided this is going to be his full time career and source of income. You don't go off and "punish" the people who are literally paying your salary - that's fucking insane. And then he blames everybody for how not cool it is for attacking his livelihood - too late dude, stop hitting yourself. If you can't handle hecklers and naysayers at all, this isn't the longterm career for you - the bigger you get the more clowns are going to want to mess with you.

Fr, he's so uncomfortable to watch when you expect him to blow up at some point. He had a moment where he couldn't get his overlay to display donators correctly, so he skipped a cutscene out of spite to show chat that he cares more about respecting the people who donate than about some dumb, transitory cutscene, and then he fumed for a bit. He was right about it being unimportant lol, but like... those people donate because they like his content. They like that he pays attention and treats the game seriously; I'm sure they could've waited a moment for him to get to a more convenient stopping point. Small things like that always annoyed me about his stream (not counting the worse moments). (Gotta clarify that I think his streams are great when he's in a good mood and it's obviously not entirely his fault for reacting this way. It's just one of the reasons I can't watch him anymore.)

He needs to get that shit under control, but not for his streaming career or anything. This clout chasing bullshit is EXACTLY what twitch chat loves. He needs to get it under control for his own mental stability and health. Sperging out over a video game is perfectly fine, i ADORE his rants about various video games. What i don't adore is his rants about chat, because it's clear he's getting very sad and frustrated over someone who couldn't care less how he feels, regardless of whether he feels happy or sad or anything inbetween they'll just get banned from his stream and hop to the next streamer.

There's literally nothing a console can do that a pc can't do better, because a console is just a value-oriented computer. The difference is a pc can do so much more, and be so much more powerful than a console. The people who truly believe that their console provides a superior gaming experience didn't arrive at that conclusion using objective facts and reasoning. They arrived at that conclusion based on marketing hype, anecdotal evidence and flawed opinions. 5 dollars isn't superior to 500 dollars. The only way someone could be convinced otherwise is if they've been brainwashed to think 500 dollars don't exist.

Love your content man , I don’t watch you on Twitch but KZread , casual listening about gaming and streamers is gold 👍❤️

After the first 3 outrages I just stopped subbing and following him altogether, then he released a video saying that he'll improve. So I went back to watching the stream since like post stormblood or something. Needless to say I won't be returning again. That latest stream addressing this doesn't make me anymore symphatizing with it. Calling people who were reasonable but disagreeing with him names isn't something you would want to see from an entertainer.

This whole pc Vs console players is the dumbest shit I've heard since console wars. Last I checked console players have stood right next to pc player in terms of skill. If anything it just shows how much time the Devs put into making any advantages or disadvantages almost non existent

I think the reason people don't take Asmon's "Epic Gamer Moments" as seriously is because Asmongold comes off like he's joking a lot of the time. It can be hard to tell if Asmon is seriously upset or not and so I suspect it leads folks to think he's just putting on a show. Pyromancer comes off as actually angry in these types of clips which lead people to either A) take it more seriously and act offended at his attitude or B) realize they can actually push his buttons so they keep pushing more and more.

I think another difference is Asmon seems happy and comfortable being an angry asshole. IMO Pyro genuinely doesn't want to be who he is right now. This isn't an act, this isn't played up for the camera and I think he doesn't want to be who he is when he rages. He pulls back in the seconds after the rage, and clearly becomes uncomfortable with his emotions. Trolls pick up on that, see it as weakness, which in some ways I suppose it is, and press harder, Everyone else sees Pyro feeding the trolls and nopes out. In today's stream, I think Pyro did a good job explaining his struggles with mental disorders while at the same time making it clear he is not using that as an excuse. Yeah, I've seen people saying "Pyro always says he is going to try harder but we always end up back here." and yeah he does but that is because this shit isn't a 1-and-done solve. It is a struggle and I fully expect him to rage at chat again because I don't think he will work through this overnight, in a 1 year or even several.

Mhm. Asmond's "rants" come from a place of security and to make streams fun. Pyro's come from insecurity and like he's actually trying to work through his emotions on stream. Pyro needs to remember he is an entertainer. Streaming straddles the line between entertainment and social interaction, but it is still entertainment. Sometimes you'll have an amazing community, and sometimes you have bad apples trying to upset you. That's why you can't rely on your community to be your support, you need to have confidence in yourself and not worry about having your community validate you.

The thing with Pyro is this sort of stuff isn't like a sudden outburst after a build up of energy over time, this stuff is constant on every stream he does. He always talks down to chat or picks people out to ban, and he just generally has this complex that he knows EVERYTHING that if you were to correct him, you're considered to be toxic or harassing him.

People have been streaming using third-party tools for the longest: ACT overlays, UI mods, Gshade, etc... They have previously only banned those players that have affected others negatively. While the ToS hasn't changed, their policy definitely has. I understand being strict before a new piece of content has been cleared, but now the use of mods isn't affecting fair competition (for an unofficial race) or anyone else. They either need to detect and ban everyone using third-party tools by adding an anti-cheat, or continue the way it was. Targeting streamers is not okay. If they want a legit WF race with an even playing field, they need to hold an official one themselves

Dude thats intellectually dishonesty. Ban in ff14 for 10 days mean you get ban again for any reason, the next one is permaban. And I dont use add ons myself, but if you seriously advocating someone to get banned for cosmetic UI, you are not hurting just one streamer, All role players and art community will get hit from this. Preach recently just had a stream on stage play where he was asked to get a chat bubble UI plug-in so that he can read his FC roleplay stage performance along with the twitch. That’s ban worthy? Yah! You guys are so dumb alright.

@@tuck295q If I remember correctly, it's 10 day then 20 day, not straight to perma ban. Plus, this just means the must not have any infractions for a year or so, as the penalty points decay. For more information, I highly suggest reading the "Account Penalty Policy" on the lodestone.

It's just like Asmon say: "Never show your audience a sign of weakness." Pyro does that almost every stream from a 1 guy situation, where said 1 guy more than likely left after realizing they lit the fuse. Plus it never seems that his mods try to defuse the situation either, unless it's a spoiler...

welp, nvm he actually says it, in the video. Also Pyro pretending he never said the RWord a few months ago during StB OMEGALUL

I've been subbed to Pyro for a while but damn he needs to do something about how vindictive he gets. Like malding at chat is one thing but his ego has just exploded since his rise. I can remember the moment I started to disconnect was when he brought up a lore disagreement with a couple and he was still bitter about it. I get being annoyed with chat but Pyro has some serious issues that he really needs to figure out.

His main issue imo was showing weakness to the internet. Viewers and the online realm are animals, show fear or weakness even for a moment and they’ll move in for the kill.

Makes me think of when he was so arrogant about assuming the Night Queen's sister was Freya or Aonar or whatever titan keeper it was, when all of us were telling him he was wrong and choosing to ignore obvious developments in Legion about how Elune embraced Ysera, meaning she was who the Night Queen meant when she called Ysera one of her sister's subjects. He was so angry about being questioned at the time, he called all of us idiots and morons for even daring to think that Elune uncorrupting Ysera and ascending her as a constellation of stars in her death is more relevant to Ysera in the modern era of WoW than that dragon's connection to a titan keeper that empowered her aeons ago and then vanished. And guess what? For all of Pyromancer's blustering, incredulous frustration at his audience when we tried to correct him on that, he was wrong and we were right in the end.

4:13 This is true as fuck. Never show weakness. If you can't control your anger and weakness, then I highly suggest you look into meditation, mindfulness and stoicism. Some of it may seem like kooky new age hippie bullshit when you first read about it, but I promise you that this shit is backed by actual science, cognitive behavioral therapy experts and highly knowledgeable therapists and psychologists. In the past I had such a severe anger disorder that I wouldn't be able to calm down unless I destroyed something or was sedated by medication. I started following the advice of my therapist, looking into meditation and mindfulness and practicing them while reading about stoicism on my own terms. I started exercising and boxing, channeling my anger much more healthily by knockin' around the ol' heavy bag, and before I knew it I had developed nerves of steel. I'm still practicing everything mentioned previously to this very day, and every day is better than the last. I now am a MUCH less angry person and I'd say I'm slightly less anger-prone than your average individual. However, I still have particular behaviors and facets of my life that need working on. I will most likely continue doing this for the rest of my life simply because I've learned to love doing it. I hope someone, even a single person who's struggling with anger finds this helpful. Take care everyone. 😌🙏💙

I have a built pc and honestly it's just easier to play on ps5 for FF. No controller connection issues, no game crashes, no compatibility problems. Not saying one or the other is better but I've been playing this game for a long ass time and right now there's no difference between playing on pc and playing on ps5 side from plugins and gpose tools that I don't use. And anybody who complains about button bloat on controller is a moron who needs to learn how to read their settings.

xeno is talking about the console itself though, not console players. and he's right. developing around a console is limiting because you have to make sure it runs perfectly well on it. developing for pc on the other hand, bare minimum is you just hand the players options they can optimize themselves.

God I remember seeing this live and being super fucking uncomfortable. Anytime streamers get into a heated scrap with their audience its just not entertaining. Just don't take it seriously like asmon.

the difference is that you respond back, when needed, but you are also humble at other times, you allow no one to oppose you without consequence. it gives respect, it makes no one jump on you. then they know you are giving back immediately.

God I'm dying to get Pyro and McCool on the same stream Ideally when they're discussing something they have polar opposite heavy opinions on It'd be incredible
