Just for my personal pride, I would like to state that the father of my children was the first american druid in diablo to clear abattoir of zir and ended that season as best in the USA. He was also ranking in Polytopia, and beat Felix himself at the game. I did observe these things with my own eyes. There are other witnesses who can verify this. That is all.

    There is also so much wrong with this, first his Poe2 playthrough makes any statements he makes about diablo weird. (dragging gear to inventory instead of just picking it up with a closed inventory (or prob using something like ctrl/shift (right) click, I only played up to d3) is so fucking weird even my mom wouldn’t do it). Then, assuming there is no ladder which tracks region, dungeon and class used (I looked and first clears seem to be tracked via youtube, at least that was what a search showed me), there is a ladder for cleartime however (and Musk was high on that one for one dungeon (abusing bug (still counts of course, but bug usage should be disclosed for Gamer Honour!)).

    So they (or more likely he did to try and impress his manic pixie dreams of facism girl) made up a whole category for him to be first in which is such a scrub move. (Otoh, channeling the silly speedrunner tomatoangus (the g is silent), making up your own categories for your own enjoyment is fine, take care of your mental health, and remember no feeling is final, feelings of dread, hopelessness or despair do not define the rest of your life).

    I also assume that Felix is the person who made Polytopia, beating the creator at their own game is a fun thing to do, but usually not mega impressive, as developers rarely reach the skillceilings in their own games. (or the game could just be random enough).

    What is also funny is what she doesn’t mention. She actually beat him at Polytopia via an epic anime betrayal, which caused him to throw a massive fit (source also note as above that getting mad over this is massive scrub behaviour, and throwing a fit over this is not something I expect of people out of their teens/early twenties).

    E: this skeet about grimes
