I would generally agree but PoE is brutal and early game involves dying a lot. The fact that he thought dying was a problem is a WAY bigger tell that he’s never played the game. Dying POE is like dying in a souls game, it shouldn’t phase you in the least.
The way I heard it (I didn’t watch the stream) was that he logged in and toasted like three hardcore characters (you know, because he’s so hardcore) then rolled up something new, died to the tutorial, and left.
Dying is in fact a problem when all your characters are hardcore characters. That’s why the only people who play hardcore are masochists and whoever Elon has on the payroll to be a masochist for him.
Yeah I’ve probably dropped a few million blood echos by this point. I have straight up stopped playing for days after those kinds of losses. But, the brutality is why I’m playing.

I genuinely wonder if he understands that hardcore ssf is permadeath.
It sure as shit phases me when I die to bullshit and lose 300,000 souls!

That’s what you get for walking around with 300,000 souls unspent! (meant as a joke, because in text you might read this with actual hostility lol)
Partially a joke partially because that’s what it takes to level up 10 hours in.
Have you tried getting gud?
Even the guddest player sometimes dies to the hardest enemy: gravity.
I am gud, just stupid, I’ve no hit half the bosses in Elden Ring problem is I’m stupid.
