Some Youtubers Are Pretending Their Simulated Football games as World Cup

A YouTube channel called Minute90Kplus has recently uploaded a number of videos and live streams of World Cup matchups simulated in eFootball and FIFA 23. One stream that was posted on Tuesday, racked up 214,000 views. It is insane. Isn’t it? The most popular is from eight days ago which has accrued 277,000 views. It was based on YouTube’s chat replay feature and seemed like there may never be many active viewers on these streams. If I had to make a guess, they’re just tuning in long enough to figure out they’re not looking at the real thing. The point worth mentioning here is that eFootball21 and FIFA 23 seem pretty convincing, at least from a camera angle high above the pitch. However, if you drop the quality down to 240p or so, you can see easily how people could be fooled.
