sinnahsaint:djburk1996:beesmygod: beesmygod:i didn’t know what “twinking” was in videogames until last night: its making a low level character with high level weapons and then entering pvp for easy wins.anyway it lead me to a bloodborne gamefaq thread in which two guys screech at each other over being twinks and i thought i was going to die happy pride Ngl I also thought they meant the other kind of Twink. Thank you for clarifying, OP! Idk how the term got started, but they player type used to be new players who through charm or luck were gifted high level items by a more experienced player. (It’s really more of a sucrose guardian situation). Until now I hadn’t seen someone using gear from an alt being called twink. Oh it was definitely based on the gay version of twink. I.e. usually small/scrawny boy in a homosexual relationship.Specifically being “small” in the gaming sense is being lower level. And the gifting of higher level items/gear/etc. by someone’s “bigger” (higher level) character was to emulate a sort of “intimacy” between those 2 characters.This is the only explanation I accept as true. -- source link
