Is there a single out? I haven't even checked

Update: yes there is

Old man yells at cloud time: I feel like naming yourself "Ninja" is something a 7 year old would do. I can't take it seriously. It's like naming your BG3 rogue "Assassin" or your music group "Guitarists".

But also I stay away from all influencers, so I don't know what's going on in that world.

naming yourself like a 7 year old is a good way to be popular as a streamer of a game 7 year olds play

[–] maccentric@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago

My crew are all over 55.

The zero build is fun, give it a shot

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago

What about band/musician names? Isn't calling yourself The Boss, or Satchmo, or Hootie and the Blowfish, Toad the Wet Sprocket, Led Zeppelin "unserious"

And secondly why is being silly bad?

[–] breakingcups@lemmy.world 23 points 3 days ago (4 children)

What do you feel about the name Gaga?

[–] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 26 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The juxtaposition of the formal "Lady" and the babyish "Gaga" is mildly interesting.

[–] Thteven@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago

I'll give you that, "Lady Ninja" sounds way cooler.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 3 days ago

I like that it's an homage to the best band ever, Queen.

I mean, it's not an influencer thing, it's a common sense thing. His username on twitch used to be NinjasHyper. Common sense dictates that this is a fairly normal username because of the nature of usernames. Common sense also dictates that when addressing someone who you only know by the internet moniker of "NinjasHyper", you're going to call them Ninja or Hyper.

[–] taladar@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

Not if you are using @ In that case you would use the full username.

Id go see a band called "The Guitarists"

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] Delphia@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Cool, I love Ska!

"The Guitarists" is basically my favorite genre of music tbh

How old is this? She has at least one skin in Fortnite because of the rhythmic game mode.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 28 points 2 days ago

In fairness, I can imagine her channelling her inner Lucille Bluth if she was asked by one of her staff if she wants to be in Fortnite for some sum of money.

It's very much a "nod your head to receive free money" situation.

2:45PM, Oct 16, 2019. So this post would be 1959 days, 12 hours, 59 minutes and 18 seconds old. (Feb 26 2025 03:44 UTC+1)

Yea, this is Lemmy dang it!

[–] Speculater@lemmy.world 29 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Context? Were they beefing?

[–] AZERTY@feddit.nl 65 points 3 days ago (2 children)

It was something along the lines of Ninja inviting Gaga to play fortnite sometime and she's like who tf are you.

[–] whyNotSquirrel@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Who's ninja? (I really don't know)

[–] FozzyOsbourne@lemm.ee 9 points 2 days ago (2 children)
[–] DankOfAmerica@reddthat.com 4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

That band is ridiculous. Fun to listen to, but I would probably not function well as friends with their main followers. They seem a bit intense and chaotic.

[–] FozzyOsbourne@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

Yeah, the music's mad but have a read up on their antics if you want to not like them anymore!

[–] Glitterbomb@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Their last video 'age of illusion' was a very mellow depart from their usual sound. I could do them if they stayed like that

Now you just confused me for a moment, and I was picturing him streaming Fortnite

[–] Kit@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

A very popular game streamer. This post is pretty old, at least a year.

A previously very popular game streamer

I've seen it many times, but it would've made sense to post the things that Ninja fella said.

[–] Endymion_Mallorn@kbin.melroy.org 10 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Fortnite is the new version of Unreal Tournament.

[–] chaoticnumber@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Fortnite is to UT, like a Dacia is to a porsche.

[–] SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Cool. Now I just need another analogy to explain the comparison between a Dacia to a Porsche.

[–] chaoticnumber@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Errr ... fine. I have a bias. I didnt like fortnite. I grew up playing twitch shooters like quake and UT. The most important things that mattered back then was movement, positioning and ofcourse, aim.

Aim was a huge huge part, back then the input was as analog as it got. Nowadays I feel like raw aim has taken a step back, while still being important, It is not THE diferentiating factor any longer, especially in games like fortnite.

I'm bitter about that because my mechanical skill is still up there even as an older dude, but in todays games everyone runs circles around me, especially in games like fortnite.

I miss the arena shooters, the raw input feel of 1:1 of the analog days. But I guess I'm just another older guy screaming at a cloud.

Closer to a paraded corpse than a new version

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 13 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (2 children)

You mean to tell me there isn't a Lady Gaga skin in Fortnite? They got everyone and everything else 🤷🏻‍♂️

There are several as they released a music mode/rhythm game and she was featured in a pass.

Oh you silly Gaga, it's Forknife.

I just want to say Paparazzi 2009 at the VMAs is goated
