You know, for someone who says he hates edgelord characters, Max probably has the edgiest Elden Ring character of any content creator I’ve seen
@McDoubleFunnyАй бұрын
lmao you’re so right
@CrossfacePandaАй бұрын
Max definitely don’t hate edgelord characters; he’s always drawn towards them in every game he plays lol Never heard him say he hates them, and I have to assume if he did it was in a typical Max deadpan sarcastic way where he states the opposite of the obvious. But if he was serious, he’s definitely in denial lol
@Laoruperteen18Ай бұрын
and yet he really isnt xD if i see anyone wearing his kind of equipment and playstyle in PVP, im just like "Sigh...another one? kay" xD
@ZoMbi5lAy3rАй бұрын
He loves Noob Saibot and Spawn in MK. Loves Vincent Valentine and Cloud Strife in FF. He also mains Nightmare in Soul Calibur, mains Reaper in Overwatch, yea, the guy loves his edgy characters. It's just when the edginess goes too far he can't stomach it, such as DmC Donte
@CalhasnopalsАй бұрын
The instance that I thought of when writing this was talking about Devil Jin, which is a pretty extreme case, I’ll admit. But I’d also argue the whole black and red vibe, with double bloody twinblades is dangerously close to DVJ territory
