After dying to the tutorial boss in Path of Exile 2, the self-proclaimed "global top 20 player" Elon Musk rage-quit on stream after repeatedly losing and being mercilessly bullied in the chat by several caustic gamers.
In an attempt to showcase Starlink's in-flight WiFi capabilities and his gaming abilities, the US billionaire started playing the game onboard his private jet and broadcast the gameplay live on X/Twitter. For the next hour and a half, he sat in silence as players descended on him with insults as they watched him play terribly.
Players with usernames such as ELON_IS_PATHETIC spammed the chat with messages such as “YOU WILL ALWAYS FEEL INSECURE AND IT WILL NEVER GO AWAY,” as well as “YOU HAVE NO FRIENDS AND YOU WILL DIE ALONE,” before another user chimed in with “ELON HOW IS IT POSSIBLE TO LOOK THIS DUMB AND UGLY WHY IS UR TESLA COMPANY FALLING APART AHAAHAAHAAH! WHAT HAPPENED BUDDY?”
The ordeal lasted an hour and a half before Musk angrily tried to retaliate with some insults before quitting and deleting the stream off X, but not quick enough for it not to be fully uploaded to Youtube.
Elon Musk once claimed to be a global top-20 ranking player in games like Path of Exile 2 and Diablo IV before backtracking and admitting that he has been secretly paying people to play for him and level up his account to make him look much more talented than he actually is.
