World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy 14 Twitch streamer Asmongold had some serious problems with stream snipers in his first experience with Final Fantasy 14, but things appear to have gone differently with the new expansion. Thousands of players turned out to greet him, making it difficult for him to enter the congested area, but repeated tries eventually allowed the streamer to get into the game.

In a recent live stream, Asmongold was once again greeted by thousands of players when he logged in, this time to welcome him to the new Heavensward expansion. The last time this happened, a crowd of fans spamming moves prevented Asmongold from playing Final Fantasy 14 properly, but this time the crowd appears to be escorting him to his destination instead.

When the streamer finally made it through the door he'd been stuck at, he found a parade of other players waiting for him. Many had formed into two neat roots, lining either side of the path that Asmongold was going to take like palace guards escorting royalty. Others had climbed onto some of Final Fantasy 14's impressive mounts, particularly flying ones, which filled the in-game skies with feathered and leathery wings.

Asmongold stated in the stream that the turn-out was incredible, that he'd never seen anything like this before, and then thanked the players for turning out to meet him. Then he began making his way through the crowd to try and proceed to Ishgard. However, the sheer number of players once again caused some trouble when he tried to leave the area. His eventual arrival in Ishgard was greeted by another, smaller crowd of players that followed him around for a while. As of writing, it doesn't appear that they caused enough trouble to be banned as stream snipers.

Asmongold's decision to make Final Fantasy 14 his main title instead of World of Warcraft has likely had something to do with Final Fantasy 14's recent spike in popularity. Regardless, it's clear that his presence in Heavensward is being celebrated by a sizeable portion of the Final Fantasy 14 player base. So many players gathered around him that the game began playing crowd noises to convey the sheer scale of the celebration. The video has been generally well-received by fans, many of whom congratulated Asmongold on finishing A Realm Reborn and reaching Heavensward. Some users also noted that Asmongold appears to be much happier when streaming Final Fantasy 14 than he does when streaming World of Warcraft.

Final Fantasy 14 is available now on PC, PS4, and PS5.
