Fake gamer billionairs

[Worgen]

So it looks like we now have problems with billionairs being fake gamers to show how cool they are. Elon musk (known for making electric cars, ugly trucks and ruining twitter) has been caught pretending to know what he was doing in path of exile 2. Now, someone not knowing a new game is fine but musk has been pretending to be one of the top players in the world. He was caught in a stream on his... "his" lvl 95 hardcore character, not knowing what items to pick up, what lvl gear he had and barely seeming to know how to pick up loot.

In short, we need to have some kinda gate to prevent fake gamer billionaires from getting the social credit for being gamers and kick them out of our hobby.

Path of Exile 2 players are calling foul on Elon Musk's high-level hardcore character after he streams his struggles with core game mechanics

Could've been stream jitters, I suppose.

The more time he spends being bad a video games the less he spends actually fucking shit up. I say we should encourage his hobby.

Except its clear hes just paying people to play for him. So sadly it isn't much of a distraction and is more about getting unearned credit. He probably did the same with with Diablo.

I'd be surprised if it didn't. Buying its way in, then taking credit is pretty much Musk's greatest skill.

We should just eat anybody with over 10 million dollars.

It's super weird to me that the filthy rich never make vanity games. I'd be making the games of my dreams, free of investor wishes and the profit-conscious demands of people above. But I guess truly passionate players aren't the kinds of people who become billionaires and hundred millionaires.

Muskrat did say something about opening his own game studio, which probably means buying one and taking credit for everything they have done.

I'm waiting for An Elon Joint, personally.

I'll ignore the fucker, and focus on people who actually care about gaming. He'll get bored at some point when realizes most gamers don't give a shit about him and are not going to suck his dick by default.

I recall a story about him being at some party for game devs and no one giving him the time of day.

This puts a huge smile on my face.

I think this should not be forgotten and should be brought up constantly. This is something that would make him feel shame and is easy to hit him with and extend to the rest of his bullshit. He tweets something stupid, "remember when you pretended to be a gamer?" Over and over till the end of time and linking the vods.

I didn't say to forget everything. All i'm doing is ignoring his usual foolishness right now. Call him out of course and keep notes or screenshots, but as we've seen: most actual gamers don't like him and those in the game industry want nothing to do with the bitatch in a boxstand.

Well there were the two 50 Cent games. Dunno if he's filthy rich or just regular rich.

Written by Terence Winter of The Sopranos, The Wolf of Wall Street and Boardwalk Empire. Wow.

Anyway, see nothing there indicating it was 50 Cent's vanity project, his idea, the game of his dreams, that he had any involvement in mechanics or design.

When it came to the Blood on the Sand game, his son wanted more fucking helicopters. So his 7 year old kid at the time had some input.

50 Cent's 7-year-old son is the reason Blood on the Sand has helicopters. No. Seriously

People are way too invested in the mundane shit of billionaires they hate.

Let Elon pay my ass to grind video games for him. Sounds like an easy job.

Assuming he pays you a big load. He can grind his lazy ass himself. Also, it's the principle of the matter for many. Including myself.
