Elon Claims He Beat Elden Ring with Bizarre and Nonsensical Character Build

I was going to play Elden Ring on stream, but since Bitwave went down, I don’t really have a place to host streams. We did the Entropy thing where you set up a dummy Twitch account and stream from that, but if I post the link on here it only takes them like 30 minutes to take the Twitch account down.

Anyway, I don’t play games this hardcore in my personal free time, I just find it stressful. I think it’s good entertainment on stream – I smashed a controller once on stream playing Dark Souls.

People say that Elden isn’t quite as hard as Dark Souls, but it’s still a massive time sink. Elon Musk, however, claims to have beaten it.

Elon was on my bad side on the vidya front for praising Cyberpunk 2077. Some of you saw my stream of that, and everyone was attacking me for being shitty at it, but then everyone had to apologize to me when they played it themselves and realized how bad it was glitching out and just how terrible the weapon calibration was. However, I think Elon praised that game because he had some kind of marketing connection to it.

I’ve watched quite a few Elden streams, and it is for sure definitely a good game. The art is good for sure, but it’s kind of console tier graphics. I don’t play console games, but “console gamers” were saying the graphics were basically previous gen for their stupid kids’ machines.

Graphics aside, the character build system is really novel and innovative. I ended up watching a bunch of streams just about character builds.

So though I haven’t played the game, I’m pretty familiar with builds.

It’s not clear if Elon was trolling when he posted this.

If you’re not familiar with the game, you won’t get how funny that is. But it’s basically like, a nonsense character build, and the equipment makes it even more confusing. (Even if you’re not familiar with this particular game, you are probably aware that maxed up intelligence doesn’t mix with heavy armor and… double shields.)

But even if that is his real build, at least he plays video games. He also has 8 kids, is not enslaved to a bitch, and hasn’t been looted by a bitch like both Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos.

He’s basically incelcore.

Anyway, I have a point: it’s the current year, and I think anyone involved in politics on any level should have to demonstrate some form of proficiency in gaming. Maybe they don’t have to be able to beat a Miyazaki Souls game, but they should at least be able to rank on DotA or something.

Frankly, instead of elections we should just have Fortnite and Minecraft championships. We can also throw in Command & Conquer, Civilization 5, and XCom – make every candidate play like 10 different games, and then average their scores. Can anyone argue that wouldn’t be better?

There is clear and present evidence that proficiency at video games corresponds 1-1 with proficiency at everything else in life.
