Elon Musk, the person who as soon as confirmed his ass to all the web together with his horrible Elden Ring construct, has the FromSoftware blockbuster on his thoughts as soon as once more. However this time, as an alternative of boasting about his playstyle, it seems that the billionaire manchild is popping to Hidetaka Miyazaki’s world for design inspiration.
X, previously often known as Twitter however modified to X in July 2023 to sate Musk’s edgelord whims, has not too long ago undergone an app redesign, with the bluebird of Twitter changed with a black, aslant X. Musk appears happy with the emblem—so proud he put an enormous, flashing X construction on high of Twitter’s San Francisco HQ that lasted only a few days earlier than folks complained concerning the “unpermitted construction.”
Decided to impart magnificence upon this tragic world, nevertheless, Musk has not been deterred. On August 18, in one among his characteristically “very on-line” social media classes, he shared “we have to make this interface way more stunning” on his X timeline (god I want I may simply say Twitter). Fifteen minutes earlier than that, he posted, “Elden Ring is a number of the most stunning artwork ever created.”
It’s unclear if Musk was up late enjoying Elden Ring or was simply daydreaming concerning the sheer magnificence that’s Dung-Eater, but it surely’s apparent that, inside minutes, he was fascinated about each FromSoftware’s motion RPG and the present design of the app he took over again in April 2022.

Throughout this spate of posts, Musk also said, “The Quick & The Fanciful: Tokyo Drift 2023,” (he’s in Tokyo proper now) and suggested that the app is “humanity’s collective consciousness.” This all simply makes me assume that he received a maintain of some significantly mid weed and was enjoying the function of older man who bogarts the joint and received’t cease speaking about how he’s extra lion than man or some shit.
It’s unclear how or if Elden Ring will issue into Musk’s quest to make X extra stunning. Perhaps he’ll set the location to a everlasting Darkish Mode (looks like a factor he’d think about “edgy”), or perhaps he’ll make it so that each time you log out you’re greeted with a basic FromSoft “you died” display screen. Perhaps he’ll change the format of the user-generated Neighborhood Notes that deal with misinformation on the app in order that they mimic the messages gamers can go away behind in Elden Ring. Or perhaps, simply perhaps, he’ll take a web page out of Iron Fist Alexander’s guide and demand that we duel him so he can disappear endlessly afterwards. He does need to battle Mark Zuckerberg, in any case… so right here’s hoping.
