      Int/Dex build, so mostly mage with some weapon skills. Shield in left hand, staff in right with rapier & claws fast switch.

      Change armor from heavy to medium for fast roll or tank.

      Move talismans around a lot.

      Many small hits in a row to damage stack is important.

      Summon!

      Literally admitting that he uses the “easy mode” button as the cherry on top lmao

        That whole thing is genuinely confusing.

        The complete lack of coherency and talking about mechanics that do not exist or are not relevant is the kind of thing chatGPT comes up with if you ask it to invent a new build and explain how it works.

          Yeah, it’s all over the place because he doesn’t understand any of the game mechanics. Something like “I’m still figuring it out, but I’m enjoying int magic and dex weapons” is what a normal person would say. my-hero has to pretend to be a 1337 gamer to impress dorks on the internet.

    wow he spends some of his free time gaming? that must mean that he’s WORKING EVEN HARDER to make those billions in the time he isn’t spending gaming. So he’s not just making 84684684168146814 dollars per second he draws breath through sheer hard work, he’s actually making 18146841941984984984928942928429494982928 dollars per microsecond instead, once you subtract all the gaming where he’s not working galaxy-brain

    he’s got all the money in the world — enough to do literally anything he wants to do — and he’s still a miserable loser with no satisfaction in his life. amazing microcosm of america and indeed capitalism writ large

    Death to America

    It’s not a big deal? It’s a huge fucking deal, mom. Every time you answer the goddamn phone and disconnect me it counts on a loss on my record. That’s fucking permanent, mom. Everyone online is going to think your son is a fucking loser, I hope that’s what you wanted.

    “Heated G!mer Moments” where someone has to do a racism or a violence under justification of consuming a treat are not far off from “I’m drunk lol” excuses for roughly the same behavior.

    It’s already horrible people having enough social lubricant to be as horrible as they already were, waiting for expression.

    Fighting with Grimes about this is fucked up but the video game obsession/hyper fixation does seem potentially attributable to his Asperger’s tbh

    Hate him for being a terrible partner or a deadbeat CEO who prioritizes his video games over meetings with his employees

    Not for being an obsessed gamer
