What do I think people want to see? I know crazy characters make a lot of rumor, why then not capitalize on this? What if I use offensive words to create scandal and make the news?" ecc. He knew very well how to increase his popularity, like appearing on gaming shows, requesting third parties to make pixellated games with him in it and so on. Really, under that extravagant exterior hides a very cautious and calculated
guy.
