Twitch star Felix "xQc" has shared his thoughts on billionaire Elon Musk's recent Diablo 4 livestream on X (formerly Twitter). The latter went live for the first time on October 2, 2023, and played the Blizzard Entertainment-developed title for about 40 minutes. Over 6.9 million people tuned in to see the platform's owner play the action role-playing game (ARPG).
xQc's initial reaction to Elon Musk's broadcast on X was:

At one point, the 52-year-old entrepreneur examined his in-game character and expressed a desire to return to Diablo 4's player hub. After seeing this, Felix burst out laughing and made a lighthearted remark about Musk's method of interacting with live audiences.
