A British MMORPG makes very angry fun of failed politician Liz Truss

The MMORPG Old School Runescape (Steam) has taken a tweet about the failed Prime Minister of Great Britain, Liz Truss. Truss announced her resignation after just 45 days in office after having to largely roll back major plans to reform the economy.

How does the MMORPG make fun of them? The MMORPG Old School Runescape published a tweet on October 20, 2022. The tweet came an hour after Truss announced her retirement on Twitter (via twitter).

In the tweet, Old School Runescpae advertises its “Fresh Start Worlds”: These are “still empty” servers where you can start over with everyone else, so as not to play against people who have been active on the server for years and have built a power advantage in the MMORPG.

Are you looking for a reboot, Liz Truss?

We have a fresh economy where you can really make a difference! This essential catering worker needs a helping hand: During the cost-of-living crisis, he can’t even afford his own ingredients.”

Truss wants to cut taxes, save the economy – fails in 45 days

What is the tweet alluding to? Conservative politician Liz Truss was elected leader of the Conservative Party in September 2022. Shortly before the death of Queen Elizabeth II, she was appointed Prime Minister by the Queen.

Liz Truss planned to mitigate the effects of the energy crisis and the resulting increase in the cost of living by introducing energy caps, drastic tax cuts and taking on new debt. Truss was strongly linked in public with the promise to lower taxes. That should boost Britain’s economy.

But their plans led to uncertainty on the financial markets:

• The British pound continued to plummet in value after massive new borrowing (via the standard).
• Rating agencies warned Britain of a credit downgrade (via daily News).
• Truss’ plans had to be largely withdrawn.

On October 20, Truss announced her resignation after just 45 days in office. A new prime minister is expected to take office on October 25.

So the tweet is pretty nasty:

• He hints that Truss failed with their “fresh start” in the real world, but could practice in an MMORPG
• But she should not have control over the finances there, but should only work as a kitchen hand

Anyone hoping for new MMORPGs:

How are the comments? On Twitter, fans of the MMORPG are amused by the tweet – it has already received over 10,000 likes.

It is suspected that there is also some bitterness behind the tweet. Because the developers of Old School Runescape have their headquarters in Cambridge, you can also feel the increased costs in everyday life there.

But you wouldn’t believe that the politician can save the economy in Old School Runescape. Surely she would give up before reaching the endgame, tweets a Twitter user.

He would also have needed economic tips:
