My favorite thing that came out of this wasn't mentioned, but there was a Venti cosplayer who got so drunk at a KFC they had be carried out of the building by another Venti cosplayer.
For those who don't know, yes the gliders eventually came back BUT only as a limited promotion for gifting subs to specific Twitch Streamers. It was only available to do so for 2 weeks at the end of 2021. They have not returned since.
@@somethingwithultra7231The twitch event is almost exactly the same as to what ffxiv did as well. Not surprising honestly, it isnt as easy to do collab event with kfc in global as it does in china. Imagine having to collaborate in every country that has kfc, it would be a nightmare to manage
And wasn't that 2021 date originally supposed to be when the promotion came to KFC's outside of China? I'm pretty sure that deal fell through and they fell back on the crappy twitch promotion.
I didn't know this even happened. I play pretty much every day and was still "waiting" for the gliders to come as they said since 2020. I don't remember Mihoyo ever saying anything about that Twitch event in game. What horseshit that is.
Living in Taiwan for almost 10 years now, I forgot KFC is in the states isnt a place where parents treat their kids as a reward for good grades or where college kids study quietly with a coffee. Lol and I guess I'm so used to the anime culture in Asia that I was more surprised by Asmon's reaction. mobile game promo on KFC products happens like every other week here lol
@garrett3055 LOL maybe I'm your country bro but where I live kfc is pretty good. Also I worked there for 3 years in highschool. So like 4 yrs ago but I didn't see a single fight. One time some kids decided to hop the counter and grab one piece of chicken lol.
KFC in the states will have you drive up their service window just so you can pay 30$ to have them spit in your mouth; and if you don't say thank you the manager will let their gimp out of the meat freezer only to unleash it upon unaware customers.
@mehmeth9773 yeah I get that I just feel like it's a lot of wasted potential. The only reason TOF was competition for genshin was because it was the same thing with better co-op 🤷🏾♂️. It's just a personal thing because I grew up playing multiplayer games
@Meh meth Usually back in the day co-op was a term used for single player games that could be played with friends while multiplayer was a completely different mode. For example Borderlands is a co-op game and Call of Duty is a multiplayer game. But in borderlands you can do everything in co-op mode while genshin cannot. So thechnically genshin is a single player game with half baked co-op functionality. In reality its just a mistranslation becuse its more of a multiplayer rather than a co-op
KFC in Asia are miles better than KFC in US It’s still fast food but the overall environment are on set down restaurant level, or like Starbucks, and always seasonal limited time menus Same to pizza hut and other fast food chains, much much better than ones in US In Japan they even have a KFC buffet with chicken curry and bunch of daily made deserts
Tbh its revealed that geshin has one of the best demographic and ratio between boys and girls and its 55%boys and 45%girls which is better than most games.
@@DOOM_glazer you absolutely have no idea, go open a commission for event clearing in genshin You will get like a lot of people many of them are girls, ask you to clear events they can't do own their own. You have no idea that the Asian gaming culture is 90% different than western.
Like the BTS one, holy shit, I remember people queuing up just for the stupid container. I manage to make a small profit out of it since every morning before i go to work there's a McDonald's not far away from work, so i get a bts meal and shit sell the paper bag and nugget box online and people actually buy it. Fucking crazy 💀
this video is awesome!!! it reminds me 100000% when the game-boy-advance was released in germany and they did not had the colour i wanted at our local shop... i conviced my parents to give my older sister the money and we both drive with bus to next town... i DEMANDED the employe to get the "clear-purple cause it looked way better than the silly violette version!!!" i was 13 years old...
I took a break from playing during this collab but one time I saw Genshin standee of Diluc outside plus cute little stickers on the glass windows in the KFC near me so I went in to see. I went home with chickens and ofc the glider which is what I'm using for Diluc to match his outfit.
You know you've made a good game when people are willing to queue up for 4 hours outside a KFC, during a worldwide pandemic, for a couple pins of two of the least popular in-game characters.
I didn't know that Diluc wasn't unpopular. I mean okay, *I* don't like him as a character because he's a humorless dick and he tortures people, but whenever I see a post about somebody getting Diluc the person's usually pretty happy since he's a 5-star with good DPS.
@@TeacherX868yeah Paimon literally the name of a demon straight from that literature. But I think they just kind of pull randomly from various occult traditions without really giving much respect to the source material (case in point: Paimon's actual character in the game). Plus stuff from gnosticism like archons, and just kind of generally recycling fantasy tropes. Tbf it happens all the time in RPGs. I'd say the cult aspect has more to do with waifu worship and gambling addiction.
i remember like a few months or a year ago there was this genshin event here in the philippines where someone stole a Klee cutout, oh and just in case the one who stole it was a girl she posted it on tiktok.
So I worked 5 years at kfc ( not there anymore thank god ) and what hes saying about the homeless people and pot pies taking 30+ minutes is completely true. Also I did see cockraoches crawl out of the drains as well. many more horror stories but hes pretty much on the money
I worked at KFC before, my manager always line us up for briefing, pray for the better day and motivational stuff, like you're here for temporary struggle and stuff early in the morning before went online, he was a great guy. I still have his number.
Also, my impressions of us fast food restaurants is at least equal as our kfc in Asia, but after watching asmon explain his kfc and pizza hut it seems I was in the wrong here.
Oh god, I remember that fiasco. When the fat black chocobo was released and the conditions for getting it out required kfc I was lookin at the event makers thinkin. "Did they just make a racist joke?" Yoshi P, you sly bastard.
From my experience, the KFC's in China are actually pretty upscale for fast food. Fast food chains in general are a little more premium than you'd find in the US. Doesn't make it a 5* restaurant by any means, but I could call it similar to like... a chilis maybe? Could go up to a longhorn potentially. And yes, some of them are setup to actually be sit down restaurants with table menus, wait-staff, etc. Pizza hut is one that comes to mind with this setup.
Pizza Hut in the US used to be a family dining place but I'm not sure when they stopped doing that. Decades ago probably. I remember as a kid in the 90s though they had these really stylized construction and kind of a seedy bar feel inside (at least to me, lol, but yeah it was comparable in atmosphere to like an Applebee's just much less populated; I'm not sure it was ever popular as a sit-down requirement but they certainly tried). Maybe that style is just still used elsewhere?
@@0v_x0 I do remember what you're talking about. The sit down pizza huts here were always so dingy lol. Applebee's is probably a good comparison for those. No, the ones we went to in China were very much trying to be upscale. The more I think about it, the more I'd put it in a similar category to longhorn. Some chili's can be pretty rough. This is not to say all chains do this. McDonalds felt more or less the same (outside of localized menu items). If I had to guess, it was probably just part of pizza hut's strategy. I doubt pizza is a popular choice in china, but if you make it a high end social thing it will have more appeal.
I happened to take a break from Genshin during this time, and didn't realize the Glider would be available then. Totally missed it :(. Only exclusive item I'm missing in the game since launch. Hope they have a second promotion. Unlikely though, I don't think we've seen any limited item make a return yet.
I remember the last time I got good service at KFC. It was 10 years ago after I had posted a public review on the KFC Facebook page about how shitty the service was at my local KFC. The REGIONAL MANAGER showed up the next day and they were filling orders in 2 minutes during lunch. The day after he left, back to business as usual. I can't count the amount of times these clowns have run out of chicken.
FYI the demographic of Genshin is actually... 51% female and 49% male... more girls play this game than guys. its just that the famous ones or the ones who are streaming the game are mostly dudes hence the preconceived idea that the game is predominantly male.. but its actually predominantly casual female players.
It says something when FFXIV KFC collab event in the same country is a lot more civil compared to the Genshart ones. It's even pre-arranged like a dungeon raid.
Chinese KFC or McDonald are all like mid-tier restaurant now at least. Although Chinese people start to despise fast food the same as westerner now, in 1990s when KFC/Mcdonald first introduced in China they're treated as pretty high-end luxury American food.
A restaurant i worked at had custom mesh jersey shirts made for the employees with the restaurants name on the back. Years after i left there, my brother bought a "bag of rags", which was just a bag of old shirts, from the local Goodwill. It happened to have one of those shirts in it. Someone i worked with donated it there, and it just happened to make its way into my house, lol
Think Asmon should see the video about how KFC around the world is basically a completely different chain outside the world compared to what it's like in the US.
FYI,in china KFC is a fair counterpart of McDonald's with same-level quility and reputation.Basically where there's a Mc shop,there's a KFC shop just within 10 meters.The most common situation would be face to face across a street or neighbors.
Aussie here, both my brothers worked at KFC as teens. One night my bro was working in the kitchen & went to put some rubbish out the back, only for a big brown dog to shoot between his legs into the kitchen. My almost 7 foot tall brother is racing around the kitchen after this damn dog, knocking shit over everywhere. His manager is out the front serving customers & can hear what sounds like a bag of coins thrown in a dryer as my brother & this dog race round & round the kitchen. It was so loud his manager could barely hear the customer. They finish serving & go out the back to see wtf my bro is doing this time. He walks in just in time to see my brother bolting for the back door chasing this big brown dog out with a broom like a damn Disney movie, finally get the dog outside only for a bushy bearded homeless man to run straight past the dog and in the kitchen. That same week my other brother had the worst shift of his young life when they, and every other store within a 50km radius, ran out of chicken. I was horrified to hear your KFC has _pies_ . Are they chicken pies or? That shit is all kinds of wrong. At our KFC burgers are a mainstay. But I’d say amongst the Aussie people, the most popular item is the Zinger Box. You get chips, a side (coleslaw or potato & gravy), the zinger burger of lettuce, Mayo and a zinger coated (spicy) hot fried chicken breast. Plus 3 wicked wings (spicy fried wings).
Just in case anyone doesn't know/remember, last time s**t like this happened was when China's KFC collaborated with FF14 on July 2019: For a serial code for a black Chokobo mount, you have to eat this crazy as combo of 2 burgers, 4 drinks, 1 duck roll, 4 pieces of roasted wings, 2 pieces original pieces of chicken, and 6 nuggets. That (by China standard) is roughly a serve 4 meal in size.
I'm both amazed and scared that Genshin Impact has this much influence and power especially in East Asia. But other than one guy stealing a cardboard cutout of Noelle which was soon returned, this was better organized compared to the McDonalds Rick and morty szchezwan sauce cringefest in the US we saw a few years ago.
For KFC and any fast food joint really, it all depends on location. You could have a few KFCs scattered through the US that are hell holes and then you could have many more KFCs across the us that are good. For example the one near me is actually a KFC / Taco Bell combo restaurant and it's fine. It's clean and nothing happens there ever. I live in Upstate New York for example if that helps at all.
13:25 What are you on about m8? In game the only things I'm aware of that you can use real money on is: resin (which you don't HAVE to spent money on, you can if you want to but why would you?), Primos (which isn't buying stupid sh!t since you need it to gain new characters and weapons which help you expand your possibilities in-game but just like the resin you don't HAVE to spend money on it. I'm not a whale and yet I've gotten plenty without having to spend money.) And alternate outfits (which are entirely cosmetic, 3 of which were given out for free in past events. Not to mention there is only a handful of them so you don't even need to bother yourself with it if you're not interested in them). And if he wasn't talking about the game then what exactly? Merchandise? Or is there something else I'm missing here?
he's just making an assumption based on playing ToF and hearing people shit talk genshin . Same could actually be said about anyone who plays any game (including WOW)
When Asmon asks,"that's a guy?" I'm reference to Diluc I busted up haha. I started playing Genshin a few weeks ago(bc it's free and I'm broke) and I was like, "Why tf all the guys look like girls?"
tbf they were probably going to be thrown out anyways. A long time ago I frequented my local gamestop to the point that the wrokers knew me, they would always ask if I wanted anything they were going to throw out. I got like 500 titanfall posters one day lmao
Chinese KFC is unironically the best fast food I’ve ever had in my life. I don’t understand why ours isn’t nearly as good, but it’s definitely because Asians (not just China, but Japan and probably several other countries I have no experience with) have a higher standard of food. And also higher standard of fast food.
9:13 my dignity would've stopped me when i see those lines of people, but this shit... just no PS you can just make yourself exactly same pins, just order them somewhere, no one would know!
nothing more meta than getting a genshin impact ad right in the middle of a video about genshin impact that's literally playing the same song in the video as it breaks for the ad
KFC adapts regional flavour, so some places kfc sells rice, some sells rice, the chicken is just there to keep kfc name. In Taiwan, kfc is famous for its egg tart. It tastes really good. As for the chicken...we have better options

He walks in just in time to see my brother bolting for the back door chasing this big brown dog out with a broom like a damn Disney movie, finally get the dog outside only for a bushy bearded homeless man to run straight past the dog and in the kitchen.
That same week my other brother had the worst shift of his young life when they, and every other store within a 50km radius, ran out of chicken.
I was horrified to hear your KFC has _pies_ . Are they chicken pies or? That shit is all kinds of wrong.
At our KFC burgers are a mainstay. But I’d say amongst the Aussie people, the most popular item is the Zinger Box.
You get chips, a side (coleslaw or potato & gravy), the zinger burger of lettuce, Mayo and a zinger coated (spicy) hot fried chicken breast. Plus 3 wicked wings (spicy fried wings).
9:34 i thought the video was paused but its just that Asmon was too shock to speak Lmao
That kfc glider should be limited event reward. Looks good for Kasuha.
It's a perfect fit for Yae imo. Didn't get it but oh well
Just in case anyone doesn't know/remember, last time s**t like this happened was when China's KFC collaborated with FF14 on July 2019: For a serial code for a black Chokobo mount, you have to eat this crazy as combo of 2 burgers, 4 drinks, 1 duck roll, 4 pieces of roasted wings, 2 pieces original pieces of chicken, and 6 nuggets. That (by China standard) is roughly a serve 4 meal in size.
He should play the kfc video game lol
I'm both amazed and scared that Genshin Impact has this much influence and power especially in East Asia.
But other than one guy stealing a cardboard cutout of Noelle which was soon returned, this was better organized compared to the McDonalds Rick and morty szchezwan sauce cringefest in the US we saw a few years ago.
lol, they guy with "panic" hoodie :D "panic" in slovak language means - virgin :D
sounds like a bad language
Oh how soon we forget the Szechuan Sauce debacle
12:49 I am personally think that the black jacket dude literally said that, and the white shirt goes mental breakdown lol
CHANT A SPELL AT THE WORKER?? i hope they got extra pay during this time
Im Still mad at mihoyo for not making the kfc posters into actual skins they could have got so much money lol☠️😔
@@devolays and the Aloy one...
for a gacha game, they really dont like making skins for the characters
wow kfc in australia sounds like heaven compared to where ever asmond is
we also have burgers, also i would want the diluc one
Omfg bro "the chicken wing incident" 🤣💀😭😂😂
I miss the KFC buffet...
i cant wait for asmon to start playing genshin, that would be such a good content lmao
How a person going to have girlfriend if one dont have the KFC glider?
Who needs a girlfriend when you have a cardboard cutout of Noelle.
I'm at the part where the guy returns the cardboard cutout this is absolutely fucking phenomenal 👌💯🔥🤣💀
asmon playing genshin when
For KFC and any fast food joint really, it all depends on location. You could have a few KFCs scattered through the US that are hell holes and then you could have many more KFCs across the us that are good. For example the one near me is actually a KFC / Taco Bell combo restaurant and it's fine. It's clean and nothing happens there ever. I live in Upstate New York for example if that helps at all.
These people are no different than the Nerds who love marvel movies

What are you on about m8? In game the only things I'm aware of that you can use real money on is: resin (which you don't HAVE to spent money on, you can if you want to but why would you?), Primos (which isn't buying stupid sh!t since you need it to gain new characters and weapons which help you expand your possibilities in-game but just like the resin you don't HAVE to spend money on it. I'm not a whale and yet I've gotten plenty without having to spend money.) And alternate outfits (which are entirely cosmetic, 3 of which were given out for free in past events. Not to mention there is only a handful of them so you don't even need to bother yourself with it if you're not interested in them).
And if he wasn't talking about the game then what exactly? Merchandise? Or is there something else I'm missing here?
he's just making an assumption based on playing ToF and hearing people shit talk genshin . Same could actually be said about anyone who plays any game (including WOW)
What I have learn today is that KFC in America, the country it originates from, is god damn aweful compared to the rest of the world's KFC.
He doesn't know genshin is collabing with mcdonalds rn
The needles on the toilet are not needles, those are the new StimPacks to boost your health.
Viva la dirt league!
KFC in China >>>>>>>> KFC in US, Also can't wait to see his reaction to the HuTao OnePlus Phone and Ganyu Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Buds 😅😅
I think people still underestimate how popular this fucking game is.
the best thing that came out of the kfc event is the chicken burger ingame recipe which is just very cheap and solid healing
1:42 east Asian KFCs are generally much cleaner than western ones
KFC is considered middle-class where I'm from so hearing that KFC sucks is totally unexpected.
When Asmon asks,"that's a guy?" I'm reference to Diluc I busted up haha. I started playing Genshin a few weeks ago(bc it's free and I'm broke) and I was like, "Why tf all the guys look like girls?"
Itto and Zhongli: 👁️👄👁️
Is it you first Asian game? It's not even anime thing... look at Korean boys bands, for example.
East Asians and South East Asians preferred clean looking guys ie minimal facial hair so yeah it's very different culture.
tbf they were probably going to be thrown out anyways. A long time ago I frequented my local gamestop to the point that the wrokers knew me, they would always ask if I wanted anything they were going to throw out. I got like 500 titanfall posters one day lmao
You have no idea how waifu and husbando stuff in Asia.
@@r3zaful please finish your sentence, thank you
I just had an idea that could destroy the world..... McDonald's x Genshin impact happy meal figures.
Chinese KFC is unironically the best fast food I’ve ever had in my life. I don’t understand why ours isn’t nearly as good, but it’s definitely because Asians (not just China, but Japan and probably several other countries I have no experience with) have a higher standard of food. And also higher standard of fast food.
I need him to just react to demos and get it over with sweat😅
True, he'll change his mind when he sees zhongli's demo. Right now he thinks it's just another waifu simulator.
@Josh Welkin Reacts Asmon does super long reaction videos, so it's not impossible.
@@peterbabicki8252 about mmos
@@eliajshdjddj Like the Johnny Depp trial MMO?
@@peterbabicki8252 that was way more entertaining and important then genshin lmao
Every. Single. Time. The corporations massively underestimate how many people want to get the limited time special stuff
First final fantasy with the fat black chocobo and now Genshin impact with a glider and pins. I can't get shit
9:13 my dignity would've stopped me when i see those lines of people, but this shit... just no
PS you can just make yourself exactly same pins, just order them somewhere, no one would know!
Didn’t know about these gliders 😢 but it would be sick for transmog since some characters don’t match with the other wings
If you know something is limited to 90 sets and you see a line of 200+ people, why would you line up?
Thumbnail looked like a surprised happy husband getting a sandwich from his cute happy anime waifu.
KFC is the states doesn't have burgers? Here in Canada we've got the Big Crunch and ZInger burger.
My guess is he got confused because Americans call them sandwiches
nothing more meta than getting a genshin impact ad right in the middle of a video about genshin impact that's literally playing the same song in the video as it breaks for the ad
KFC adapts regional flavour, so some places kfc sells rice, some sells rice, the chicken is just there to keep kfc name. In Taiwan, kfc is famous for its egg tart. It tastes really good. As for the chicken...we have better options
Jesus the crowds
Imagine If blizzard had professions this well thought out
It was like watching both the Popeye chicken sandwich and McDonald plum sauce, but with less rioting.
