I find this attitude really hard to understand. I’ve known J_sat since the beginning. In VT1 he was at about level 300 while his peers with similar hours in the game were at 1000. Because he spent most of his time dying trying to True Solo. When Cata True Solo got too easy (this is something hardly anyone could do, at the time) he was doing Cata True Solo with handicaps (slow weapons, no-ranged, no-melee, etc.). Then Deathwish True Solo. Then handicapped Deathwish True Solo.
The point is that when virtually everyone else was just chilling in the game, J_Sat was constantly cranking up the challenge of the game to completely redefine what was possible.
That’s still what he’s doing. He multiplies boss damage and removes patrols because doing those things makes True Solo more interesting for him and less of a chore – not because that’s the only way he could succeed. For the people that know what he’s accomplished and what he’s actually doing, that doesn’t hurt his credibility in the least. Because he’s not posting videos to say “LOOK! I’m the best VT player alive and here’s more proooooof!”. He’s posting videos to explore every facet of the game and to share his passion for rat-geekery with the masses.
TL;DR His case doesn’t need any help. Anyone who wants to steal his crown because they’re jealous of his reputation is welcome to fire up Twitch and do it better. He wouldn’t mind. Because that’s not why he’s doing what he’s doing.
