Honestly I never even heard of this game.

amazon marketing basically put all their advertising budget by making mr beast create an event themed around it, and most people didnt get the memo that it was an actual game.

if you dont watch him, or know someone who watches him, you basically would have never known. similar to how most pc players werent aware of concord at launch because its only advertisment was if you happen to watch state of play, a sony event.

I’m a millennial and had never heard of or seen Mr. Beast until he had that controversy around the same time he started launching shitty foods, which was enough for me to be like “don’t care for anything this guy’s involved with moving forward.” and have since then not even seen ads for anything he does except maybe once? before a Fallout episode.

They must have their targeted advertising on lock ‘cause I guess they got the message from my lack of interest that I’m not in his demographic and aren’t advertising to me.

Millennial also, very glad not to have Mr. Beast advertised to me. I had one glance at that mf and I knew he’s just doing it for the money. Phony ahh bish.

Claims to be a millennial then uses “ahh” like a 14 year old girl on ticktock. Something here is fishy.

I denounce your claim of millennial status. No self respecting depressed millennial would be caught dead using Gen z brain rot algospeak

no depressed millennial has any self respect to begin with
Can’t afford to rent any self respect
But our irony is on fleek
We millennials have been relegated to the kids table so long we’re fluent in Gen z slang

I use it ironically.

I assure you I was blowing into my NES and N64 cartridges like every other millennial.
