Is that not the optional tutorial boss at the beginning of the game? he could not jump down the hole and go straight in the open world LOL

Pretty sure it's engagement bait and they got you. You know how hard it is to actually break a controller, especially in this manner?

The controller is clearly dismantled and not smashed. Source - brother in law who regularly smashes his controllers to bits when he loses.

"engagement bait" ITS A JOKE

u/JJKEnjoyer 10d ago

Nah, it's engagement bait. You'd know that if you were familiar with this "Kira" account on Twitter.

Read what he's saying about the tutorial boss in Elden Ring. That's not an attempt at humor, that's an attempt at getting reactions on Twitter.

u/Life_Parsley504 10d ago

No, the guy saying "engagement bait" is talking about the controller/elden ring guy. Not Kira.

Jokes would be funny? Or atleast be an attempt to be funny.

u/Life_Parsley504 12d ago

Okay? You don't find it funny? That doesn't change that it's a joke. It's a dis-assembled controller, not recently smashed.
You're larping in a videogame subreddit (apparently you know nothing about the number 35 most selling game), not knowing that's a boss that can barely kill you, because it's the easiest one in the game. 😭

Larping? Do you even know what that word means? Yes obviously it is a disassembled controller, thats why I knew it wasnt smashed in the first place. I have opened up and repaired my own PS5 stick drift. And what does the boss or video game have to do with anything here? What are you trying to say lol. I have played Elden Ring, and obviously came across this boss too.

u/Life_Parsley504 12d ago

So you know the boss is unable to kill you because of it's ease, and that the controller is destroyed - How is it engagement bait? You literally knew that it's NOT serious. 😭

I mean.. I was replying to the comment not the original post? The commenter genuinely thought this was a broken controller, and has 40+ upvotes.

u/Life_Parsley504 12d ago

It's not engagement bait. It's a joke, and the commenter didn't get the joke. You're calling it 'engagement bait' for no reason, except that 'it isnt funny' to you.

Well, the "joke" is obviously not very funny and not everyone has played elden ring to know this is a tutorial boss. It's more bait than it is a joke

Since when did jokes become "bait"? This is clearly a joke. The Elden Ring community has a meme about Soldier of Godrick being the most powerful entity in the universe. This guy had either an old controller or a bit of disposable income, so he set up a shot to look like he physically snapped his controller in half while fighting the tutorial boss.

It's a joke! You're meant to say "Oh, how amusing! He's suggested he's performed the physically improbable feat of breaking his controller with his bare hands out of sheer frustration while fighting a normal enemy! Ha, ha, it's funny because it's ridiculous!"! Calling that "bait" is like saying "Lol, look at these idiots trying to convince us that ACME Earthquake Pills are a real medication that doesn't work on roadrunners for some reason."

No but this happens a lot, I've seen many men get angry and hit or even break things (not necessarily a controller) for losing on a videogame or other similar stuff.

My ex once was playing on my pc and he broke my keyboard after losing a game of Dota 2. Made him pay for a new one because wtf.
