Hey wait Ubisoft you’re not allowed to be this cool.

Imagine being dunked and ratio'd by fucking Ubisoft. Even a billionaire should have enough shame to kill themselves.

It would be so funny if the muskrat would uninstall himself over this.

"Breaking News: Elon Musk Found Dead After Apparent Ketamine Overdose"

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 32 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (4 children)

Is Elon still trying to prove he can fit in with the gamer crowd? It looks so sad, like Zucky learning martial arts to prove everyone how tough he is. Guys you don't need to fuck the planet over your teenagehood traumas, just deal with them like any other reasonable person.

Oh my god, a streamer shouldn't advertise a mediocre game to get compensation for their work? Has anyone told the Raid Shadow Legends steamers?

Why is anyone else but nazis on X at this point?

I think a lot of artists are still holding on to their following there, bluesky has a lot of the same features (more actually because it allows you to change settings to hide NSFW images), but it's hard to migrate a following to a new site.

Uncommon Ubisoft associated W (Ubisoft is a French company so its not surprising TBH)

In comparison to Musk. It tells you more about Musk than Ubi.

Man I really don't know which I despise more, Elon Musk or Ubisoft.

I'm leaning towards thinking Ubisoft is the marginally lesser evil.

(I might have my issues with Hasan directly related to his softballing the Houthis but critical support to the fucker here, easy)

This the most crazy take I've ever seen. One guy is actively dismantling the government and attempting to steer us into an Oligarchical White Nationalist Ethnostate, and the other is a video game company that overcharges and under delivers sometimes.

Is Ubisoft trying to dismantle democracy? I'm pretty sure one here is way worse.

Who says you need to support one of them?

Both are bad in their own way.

[–] samus12345@lemm.ee 12 points 6 days ago (4 children)

One is a video game company and the other is a fascist who is helping to dismantle the US government. Ubisoft at its absolute worst doesn't even come a million miles close to Elon's evil.

3 of the worst public personae feeding of each other for relevance. A real human centipede type shit, shame Musk is on the beginning end.

Can someone share some context please

[–] straightjorkin@lemmy.world 46 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (53 children)

Hasan was paid by ubisoft to play the new Assassin's creed on stream (which he was very clear that it is a paid promotion) grummz got mad and called him a "terrorist supporter" and claimed ubisoft supports terrorism (because Hasan is middle eastern and pro-palestine). Then Elon responded to grummz with this.

Elon streamed Path of Exiles a Diablo-like online MMORPG pretending he plays often.

Everyone watching knew he didn't know a thing about the game at all showing he never played it and likely bought or paid someone to level the account for him.

Rich folk like Elon are envious of us regular/poor people. We dress better, are actually funny and do enjoyable shit. Whenever he tries to take part he comes out looking like a big fraud and a dumbass.

Grummz is a racist, sexist, transphobic, anti-woke pile of crap.

He is also behind the recently released Schedule 1 game. Don't buy it.

EDIT: Nope, I was wrong. He is still a bigot, tons of evidence for that. But he was citing Schedule 1 sales numbers and I read that it was his game. But I can't verify that anywhere so I was mistaken.
