Square Enix is not allowing people to upload monetized videos for Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
This means if you upload a walkthrough or any other helpful video on Final Fantasy: A Realm Reborn, you have to make sure you’re not profiting from the video in any way.
Here’s the guidelines Square Enix outlined:
-The video must not require a paid membership for viewing
-You may not monetize your video via the YouTube partner program or any similar programs on other video sharing sites.
-You may not split our videos (vocal, music, visual, etc.) and distribute components as separate assets;
-You may not combine or synchronize the Materials with third party content (e.g., a mash-up), but you may include the Materials alongside third party content (e.g., before or after in the same video) as long as you also have permission from the original copyright owner)
-The video must not contain racist, sexist, homophobic or generally offensive content of any kind. This includes graphic violence or sexually explicit content.
If you’re thinking of making a bit of money making helpful videos of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, you’re out of luck because Square Enix won’t allow it. You can still upload videos for the game, you just have to make sure you’re only doing it for free…
Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn is out now for the PS3 and PC with a PS4 version coming next year sometime.
