My goodness, my condolences goes out to the departed gamer. Sad

But this story touched my heart because it showed not all gamers are d-bag and they come together to make sure that gamer is not forgotten. This is a very touching story I've read. Smile

How coincidental that the finale for SAOII aired this past week! I echo the sentiments of it being an exceedingly touching affair.

Wow this is impressive. My heart goes out to this person. Really sad when someone leaves the world so young.

Very sad that he passed away so young. Sad
It's heartwarming that these gamers are going out of their way to make sure that Tai won't be forgotten.

I do not have any connections with Final Fantasy XIV... yet, but my condolances go to those left behind, both in life and in game life. Reading the Reddit thread linked here was a beautiful and heartbreaking affair.

I just started FFXIV last week (my first ime ever playing an MMO), and was surprised at how good the community is there. I'm generally used to people just swearing at each other over their mics, but pretty much everyone I've met is generally rather nice. Didn't know about this until I read the article on Kotaku yesterday, so I wasn't able to join in (and I'm not even sure if anything happened on my server, Famfrit), but I found this act from the community to be really great and would have joined in if I'd known. My thoughts go out to his family and friends during this difficult time.
