Elon Musk Publishes Private Messages of Exposed Streamer

Elon Musk's Path of Exile 2 Leveling Controversy: A Public Exchange with Asmongold

Following accusations of using a "boosting" service to reach level 97 with a character in Path of Exile 2, Elon Musk engaged in a public exchange of private messages with streamer Asmongold.

The controversy ignited after Asmongold released a 32-minute video addressing allegations of Musk "cheating" by either purchasing a high-level character or employing someone to rapidly level it. The video highlighted the extensive time commitment required to reach level 97, questioning how Musk could manage his responsibilities at SpaceX, Tesla, and X while simultaneously dedicating the necessary time to the game.

Further fueling the debate, viewers noted Musk's apparent inexperience during his streams, contradicting the expertise expected from someone who allegedly leveled a character from scratch to level 97.

Musk responded to Asmongold's video, claiming he too "needs to coordinate with the boss," and suggesting Asmongold requires a team of editors before posting on X. Asmongold countered that he is his own boss and employs editors, a standard practice among many YouTube and Twitch streamers to streamline content creation.

Asmongold interpreted Musk's comment as revealing a lack of understanding regarding the behind-the-scenes processes of content creation. The exchange underscores the ongoing debate surrounding Musk's gameplay and the complexities of verifying claims of in-game achievements.
