A Twitch streamer claims to be able to control games with her mind. I thought it was telekinetic baloney – so I went round to give it a go
I am sitting in a house in North London with electrodes attached to my temporal lobes to supposedly learn how to control video games with my mind.
Wait, let me explain. In July, twentysomething Twitch streamer Perri Karyal hit headlines when she claimed to have defeated two bosses in Elden Ring by thought alone. The cynics, being cynics, were soon to call her out on social media. “It’s faked,” posted @gamerguru2924. “What a fraud,” yelled @saucypepperoni. “This is some bullshit, why are you fools believing this?” considered @Pennywyze-ub7ry.
