ExtraLexical1: I'm Spanish on my mother's side and when I saw people moaning about racist conquistador gear, my gut reaction was "if it weren't for us, you'd still be ritually carving each others hearts out to sacrifice each other to strange gods." So glad the algorithm pushed you onto my feed last week, keep shining a light on the "best gaming community"

crystalbepsis: i'm a descendant of both conquistador and south american indigenous and all i gotta say: glad i'm here instead of my ancestor being offered to the sun gods.

PluPerfective: So no one complained about the ala migo being arabs/african, or the monoglia/turkic inspired area, or the china/japan inspired area, all that shit. We didnt care about Bozja, we didnt care about nordic , we didnt care about futuristic, we didnt care everything else but this is where we cross the line? lol

Gambito32x: "the less mentally ill japanese player base"

i got bad news

MasterOssy: I may as well farm those gearset and just post it, just to mock these gremlins.

PKDeviluke25: Am Hispanic and I think the armors look cool. I don't play the game anymore since they destroyed the Summoner class.

auroninja: <<<<< Based Beaner (you could say latin American, but I was born in America. I'm American).

MrDisaster2000: "10 yen Yoshida"

Alteea369: i wonder what SE needs to do in order to bring the old good players back and get rid or silence the negative (batshtcrazy) players...if there's still a chance for that to happen..

lura649: As a EU player, I like the design of the gear, especially the (what i assume is gonna be) the fending/maiming armor being main part cloth with metallic supplement. I didnt even notice the spanish influence of the gear and thought that one set with the tabard was more a nod to the three musketeers.

JoshuaVonNoctis: My Machinst glam is literally a Cowboy from the South. How I haven't got hate from it I have no idea.

septonyte: As I posted in the comments on another video, when 7.0 came out I used a glam that looked VERY much more like a qonquistador as a joke.

I got no negative responses during the entire month I used it. And I play on Balmung of all places.

Also. I am of Spanish descent. I loved it.

ChaoticHarmony431: It’s almost as if this entire “controversy” is completely manufactured and is just a very small group of loud whiny brats. We’ve seen this tactic tried again and again and I for one am happy that it’s no longer working.

drakologarnus7248: remember everyone seperate reality and fiction. vanadiel/Eorzea/final fantasy are NOT based on any REAl politics/history. i shouldnt have ever had to say this :)

miqotesoulia8620: gosh that "trigger warning" one was soooooo on point. Im so sick of these SNOWFLAKE ppl infiltrating my hobby and getting it all safety feelings bs. The tone policing is insanity. such WEAK society!

VizerPS: you're nailing the "consistent uploads" part of building and maintaining an audience, keep up the good work

peoples' values are heavily based on what they see and hear other people saying, so i'm glad you're another voice in the rising counterculture

remember when saying bad words on television was the big boogeyman? or music that was a bad influence on kids? these things always result in an era of pushback and the extreme opposite, with lots of creative behemoths arising from the rebellion, like south park for TV censorship, or the 70s - 90s era of rebellious music videos

karasu-chan: Keep bashing them, Athena. Also I commend you for not falling into cheap kultur kampf topics and deviations as some people in your comments have regarding this topic. Keep it strictly about the game without diluting your message! GG

BrilliantSunsGaming: With all due respect, those aren't Americans. Those are communists and marxists. :) I'm American and I enjoy FFXIV quite a lot!

Nanashi20: I live in the US, and I am hispanic/latino, and i never saw anything wrong with this. These people are so blinded by only negatives of history without caring for any of the positives, and they really need a collective actual playerbase to tell them to stfu, rather than let them cry and threaten the game. I am hanging out on the European side gor a change of social pace and maybe i shouldve just gone to try the japanese servers to be safe from those mod boars.

MurakamiTenshi: This game has Sami clothing, qipao, north snd south Indian clothing, native American (Sioux and Innuit) clothing, Chilean clothing, Mongolian clothing, Korean clothing, even WW2-era Japanese school kid clothing...

Yet these parasocial losers cry about based Conquistador armor. You can't make this shit up.

AnonymousObserver0: I hope the set with the big hat fits on red mage or machinist

DarthP1kachu: i honestly think they look pretty great, dunno why people are complaining :)

also being your average randi-scandi, i hope they one day make viking themed armor sets, that would be freakin' cool..

kataku8609: Good thing there are still sane people in the game.

tyhjyys: it's nice not logging in to a game and reading people in /s try to literally rp as lalafell

Jamalboseman: I'll say this again JPN servers will be the way to play FF14 bcs American servers are doomed it's literally first descendant level slop i can say TFD is slop bcs they focus on bikini skins over releasing new content that requires different team synergy
