Game: Final Fantasy XIV Online Dawntrail
Song: SMILE – Masayoshi Soken

Black gospel bomb making music
I dont hate the song because it's gospel music. I hate the song because it's a bad song. And when it played in the train scene I was genuinely confused
Does she know what black gospel music? bc this aint it, chief
BOSS THIS IS INCORRECT AND UNREALSITIC! that random gleaner guy was actually fired from his job and is now jobless
She's merely displaying her victimhood-by-proxy superpower
can't let gang know I fuck with smile (I listened to it 5 times on loop after finishing dawntrail and have no regrets)
(Also W saucey for making a meme video about dawntrail that isnt just "dawntrail bad wuk lamat bad hahaha")
0:10 you give her more of a Happy Ending than she deserves.
I would have had her "vanish" under mysterious circumstances only leaving a finger and 3 teeth behind.
Smile was a fine song, it just suffered hard from being used too many times and in the most questionable places
It gets pretty heavy into Disney territory. When Smile first played I immediately thought of the scene in The Lion King when Rafiki holds up baby Simba. If FFXIV is gonna have a Kingdom Hearts crossover, this would be the expansion to do it lol. There was SO much Disney influence in this expansion and I think that understandably put a lot of people off.
I regret reading Sena's Tweets. It's making me resent Wuk Lamat
I bet Koana opened the dealership to cover Gulool Ja’s therapy fees
If you don't like X or Y you're definitely racist or sexist or homophobic.
I don't care for Sena's work, but her constant complaining and crying on twt are irritating af
So I never really thought about this before this tweet.
But exactly WHY do we have African-American Gospel in an expansion which is supposed to be based upon the different cultures of South America?
Between all of the different countries and their long cultural history they had no music of their own that could fit the "smile" scenes?
No, Krile! Not Calarts!
You forgot the “And me…? You already know I’m on my next adventure”
Tataru got arrested for tax evasion
(That why we only saw her once at the dock)
I never heard smile bc i skipped most the cutscenes bc the story was lame
Spent most of my childhood in Black Churches and listening to Gospel CDs around the house, and yeah I don't think people are off base equating Smile more to Disney showtunes than to Black Gospel. It may have been XIV's intention, but I'm not hearing it in execution.
I get that Sena's faced a pretty large amount of hate over her performance in DT and maybe she wants to vent some of that frustration and clap back at what she feels like is the bigoted portion of playerbase that maligns her, but she's not doing herself any favors trying to stir things up via a subject matter she doesn't seem to have great knowledge of. Hoping she's able to just disconnect a bit, because it doesn't seem like social media's doing her mental health any favors.
I think she needs to stop trying to stir the pot and act like a professional. I rarely get on twitter, but from what I've seen through friends sharing info to me…..They're extremely lucky more people haven't clapped back at them outside of just their performance of Wuk and this tweet. They need to learn when to step away from social media to clear their head. Funny meme video tho
bro, calarts? why do you hate Krile?
LMFAO LOVE THIS
Can you check up on me? Am I still racist for not liking smile or have I stopped playing the game?
Me when I need to turn a Disney Song into an racism argument to defend myself.
Remember people just SMILE 😬
Funny how the main singer of the song isn’t black. And yet it’s being called black gospel
this sounds like white megachurch music or disney credits (same thing)
They NEED to be fired. Sick of sick people using my skin as a shield.
Ah yes. Soken makes my favorite black gospel music.
