FF14 player scores 100 wins in Fall Guys crossover in under a week, just by being really dang good at it
Final Fantasy 14's Fall Guys event is, uh, a crossover that exists in a game. I've already made my feelings clear on the disturbing bisected Fall Guys hat, but it's also got some pretty weird netcode wonkiness.
