Elon Musk is Lying About Being Good at Video Games

[@nexigram]

It takes a special kind of narcissism to be on track to be the world’s first trillionaire, meddling in governments all over the world, and still be insecure enough to lie about being good at video games.

[@sinthrax]

What I think is worse is the fact the governments around the world are so weak that on man can meddle to begin with. How f'ing sad do you have to be as a government to allow one person to pretty much shank you. Its not Elons fault. He is just taking advantage of their weak azzes.

Elon Musk's favorite PoE skill? "Summon Interns." It’s passive and extremely effective.

[@DreaMeRHoLic]

I'm way more confused about how he managed to find someone to boost his account that well without knowing anything about PoE. Over all I still wonder why this is important so people, because I dont even understand why he would pay someone to boost a HC char. I have a lvl 80 necro in "normal mode" but also have no idea about pre and suffixes and item level and I think that it is somehow funny that people that only know this BECAUSE THEY WATCH VIDEOS think that he has to know it, because he was just following somebodies guide. But "Elon maps" indeed seems like someone rolled easy maps for him and said "do those on stream"... in in the end I dont really care, because Bezos and Blue Origin (strange name by the way... blue blooded? wtf?) cant even reach orbit. The firefighters and others in LA use starlink... so Elon and his companies have done more for the US than most other people. Who cares if some gaymers get mad because he has a brought HC char? Most of those people cant even keep their own room clean of their mother wouldn't help them edit: plot twist... what if he let GROK AI play for him as a test for the AI? It would explain why he could "play so much" like someone who is online 24/7

[@sandiego8817]

H1Bs are built different

[@X_Woods]

​@@DreaMeRHoLic He does have to know it. The difference in lvl 80 on SC and lvl 93 on HC is like you going to lvl up 12 more characters on SC, and then you'd be somewhat on an even playing field with a lvl 93. All 13 of your accounts would still die instantly to that lvl 93 if you were to fight all at once. Literally all 13 accounts would vaporize. This is just accounting on a pure time scale, which mind you if you were doing things this slow you'd be like lvl 70~80 if you started playing since launch. No shot you're past 85 going this slow. Then we get to the other things we didn't account for, the infinite choices you need to constantly be making when adjusting your gear, what layers of player power gear is suppose to cover, how well it should cover what it does. You're telling me someone who clearly has no idea what's going on just happened to luck into the best gear in the game? Your response is a comical rendition of devil's advocacy. There is no universe he achieved this himself.

For anyone unfamiliar with Path of Exile 2, this is like someone pretending to be a grandmaster chess player not knowing how a rook moves. I think Elon is a complete fraud with at best slightly above average intelligence and very clear mental issues. This whole situation reminded me of this quote by Rod Hilton: "He talked about electric cars. I don't know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius. Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius. Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software & Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit I've ever heard anyone say, so when people say he's a genius I figure I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets." He's not a genius, he's not an inventor. He (under)pays people and then takes credit for their work. That's all the evidence shows so far.

Okay just to pick up on something that people who aren't Blizzard fan boys might have missed. Joe talks about how elite StarCraft pros are, which they are. Then Elon pivots from StarCraft to Diablo which is also a Blizzard game as if to make a direct comparison between the eliteness of the inhuman SC pros and what is essentially...

The thing of Poe, the basic game mechanics of the game ie gear/skills/builds is that you can just tell when someone is not being true about their character. It’s like if I said I’m great at basketball and can’t dunk, shoot a 3. That’s how bad Elon looked to everyone who plays Poe, it’s just blatantly someone not knowing what’s going on

Just watch elon killing stuff. His coordination is so awkward. He literally walks with his cursor 30-45 degrees tilted from his path of movement. He's basically blasting at the walls and enemies kinda get caught in the general area

Yep. I remember during 3.15 I made a nearly perfect Discharge ignite staff through harvest and the guy who bought it off me was clearly a new player. He kept asking super basic questions about a bunch of mechanics that anyone buying a fucking nearly mirror worthy staff should know. Its just so obvious when you're at that point in the game.
