    I believe you.

    I just don’t care. I’m just stating that Musk sucking wasn’t unusual at a hard game.

    That said, again, fuck him. And his pathetic attempt to hang with kids for attention, being a middle aged grown man.

      The unusual part is not that he sucked, but that he was presenting himself as a top player (because he bought an account).

      Like, if I hand the controller to someone who’s never played Demon Souls and they get wrecked by the first few skeletons or wev, that makes sense. If someone brags about being among the top Demon Souls players in the world, and they can’t make it through the first level, that’s odd.

      Most of us grow out of thinking our skills at video games have much significance or bearing on our self image, so it’s very odd to see an adult that feels the need to lie about their competence at a video game. If instead of buying an account and pretending to be a top player, he had been honest - “hey y’all, just going to show off Starlinks ability to stream by checking out PoE2!” - well, at most people might be making fun of him for taking time to play video games instead of running the dozen companies he supposedly does, but it wouldn’t be this pathetic.
