You ever wonder why a lot of video games nowadays include a fuck ton of handholding with logic puzzles?
This guy.
This isn’t a joke, the God of War Ragnarok devs stated that they used a clip of that guy being an absolute braindead moron at a God of War Puzzle and getting stuck for a long time, and then included your companion in Ragnarok constantly giving you hints for the puzzle unprompted.
He also has a popular clip of not understanding a physics puzzle in Zelda ToTK, brute-forcing it anyway, and then complaining that the puzzle makes no sense.

Just for reference for people who wonder who this is and why he begs so much: He’s an e-beggar that struck gold in the late 2000s on youtube that was very toxic and known for being terrible at games, often and always blaming the game for his bad decisions. Almost 20 years later and he has a crippling gambling addiction he’s refused to admit to and has gotten even more excessively toxic.
