Not entirely accurate. He died to the tutorial fight first. The guy who is supposedly one of the best players in the world.
Generally, you really have to try to die in a tutorial. Impressive.
Some extra context for those who have not played: PoE2 does not hold your hand. When I was learning the game that fight killed me too. But I wasn’t claiming to be one of the best players, (I’d still describe myself as bad) and that same fight can’t even hit me now.
It’s just proof he bought the account in initial beta release, and I still maintain he should be banned for it. Anyone who has played through to endgame maps should be capable of beating that boss deathless, he’s just a god awful gamer. Total trash. Garbage. Also Nazi scum.
Interesting. Might have to try it… Hopefully Elmo doesn’t sully the place too much.
You won’t see Elmo unless you watch his streams
Yeah the tutorial fight isn’t a “you should win easy-peasy” like some games. But it’s also not like Genichiro in Sekiro where you’re supposed to lose. I wonder if GGG published a breakdown of deaths to the boss. I think I cleared him four times on four characters and never died to him, but I also play a lot of this kind of game. (Unlike Musk, who is a fraud)
I would generally agree but PoE is brutal and early game involves dying a lot. The fact that he thought dying was a problem is a WAY bigger tell that he’s never played the game. Dying POE is like dying in a souls game, it shouldn’t phase you in the least.
The way I heard it (I didn’t watch the stream) was that he logged in and toasted like three hardcore characters (you know, because he’s so hardcore) then rolled up something new, died to the tutorial, and left.
Dying is in fact a problem when all your characters are hardcore characters. That’s why the only people who play hardcore are masochists and whoever Elon has on the payroll to be a masochist for him.
I genuinely wonder if he understands that hardcore ssf is permadeath.
It sure as shit phases me when I die to bullshit and lose 300,000 souls!
Yeah I’ve probably dropped a few million blood echos by this point. I have straight up stopped playing for days after those kinds of losses. But, the brutality is why I’m playing.
That’s what you get for walking around with 300,000 souls unspent! (meant as a joke, because in text you might read this with actual hostility lol)
Partially a joke partially because that’s what it takes to level up 10 hours in.
Have you tried getting gud?
Even the guddest player sometimes dies to the hardest enemy: gravity.
I am gud, just stupid, I’ve no hit half the bosses in Elden Ring problem is I’m stupid.
You’re also generally not being insulted by randos for being a piece of shit.
Oh dude, I instigate. I’m there for it. Death threats are like butter on a perfect fluffy loaf of bread right out of the oven.
Maybe he needed a tutorial explaining how to die b/c he is just so fucking awesome?
Tries to back out of Twitter purchase.
Backs out of fight with Zuckerfuck.
Runs away with tail between legs after some online bullying.
This chode is the snowiest of flakes.
Brave sir Elon ran away,
He bravely ran away away…
When danger reared its ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled,
Yes, brave sir Elon turned about,
And gallantly he chickened out,
Swiftly taking to his feet,
He beat a very brave retreat,
Bravest of the brave, sir Elon!
Whilst I appreciate the source material, in this case it’s not even danger he’s running away from, it’s being rubbish at a game he claimed to be good at.
Literally has all the money in the world, but it can’t buy skill. Sucks to suck!
Most Republicans are snowflakes.
He can’t blame his connection either because it was meant to advertise starlink lmfao
He’ll throw Starlink under the bus because his ego can’t handle admitting he’s a trash gamer.
I’m pretty sure he did blame his death to the initial tutorial boss on lag.
What an awful gamer, Elon is a total noob!
This headline is missing the most important part. the trolling didnt make him quit, him trying to prove that he’s a good gamer and then dying to the tutorial boss made him quit.
As others have said, PoW is a punishing game where you die a lot.
“The best player“ would know this and it wouldn’t be a big deal, so the fact that he even was frustrated was self-own in and of itself
Amusing but is this considered politics at this point?
Elon Musk is the true president of America so of course it’s related to politics
The It Could Happen Here podcast just discussed why people like Elon have been trying to present themselves as gamers.
They state video games are played by 3 billion people, and gaming generates more revenue than movies, tv, and music combined. It is a huge, untapped group of people that is misunderstood by most politicians.
People like Musk of Sam Altman present themselves as gamers to try to get the support/money/etc of this massive group of people. It’s also a way to spread a narrative within a group that will fly under the radar of politicians.
GamerGate showed the power of a potential stoking of the fire of this group of otherwise unrelated individuals.
Exposing Elon as the fake he is in this arena takes away his power within that group. He is a poser, so it isn’t hard, but it cuts him off of an avenue of power he’s wishing to grasp and manipulate.
Where is that line?
That all depends on what side of the line you’re on.
The sad part is that it kinda is
Lmfao what a clown
I heard he kept dying to a tutorial boss… that pauses when it does an attack, and teaches you how to dodge.
“loSt CoNNeCtIoN.”
My own isp is ass, sorry
Remember Elmo, empathy is a weakness as you so wisely informed us.
I hate that Elmo, one of the most kind and smartest muppets, gets his name dragged through the mud like this. Why don’t people just use his real name, F. Elon Musk?
Smartest? When did Elmo stop being the Muppet equivalent of a kindergartener?
The richest guy in the world, and he is so horny for any love and respect that the smell of desperation fills any room he is in. You can even see it anytime he makes a media appearance. The guy actually exudes a breath-taking level of anti-charisma. He’s truly revolting to anyone who sees him.
All that money, and he has to rent wombs to manufature his DNA Storage Units/ Organ Donors/ Human Shields because no woman will go near him. Ive heard his dick doesn’t work anyway, due to a botched wiener enlargement surgery.
So he thinks the gamers are his peeps, and they’ll love him, right? Nah, all those great toys, and still none of the neighborhood kids want to play with him, because he’s so fucking wierd.
It makes me so happy to see him demonstrating in real time, the old saying “Money can’t buy happiness.”
You’re reminding me when Some More News did an episode of Russian mouth pieces. Tim Pool was one of them and he has the same aura. He’s in some band, named after himself. He has some skate park set up in his house. There was some people in the background on some shots, but the whole ‘smell of desperation filling any room he is in’ reminded me of that douche.
Why should anyone show him any kindness? That would be weak.
Also some forget this douche canoe just a few months ago was showing of his PoE 2 character and boasting about how he was a pro gamer with his ‘level 97’ character and then for exposed that he had others playing and streaming on his account.
Now that is funny.
I hope he starts playing dark and darker.
Global can be vicious as fuck. Just ask Flaskfinder on xbox
so happy to be the first here…who?
