Mr. Man-Bun doesn't suck up to people at all in the dialogue we're presented with. He's eccentric and a bit forward in inserting himself into conversations, but he doesn't kiss anyone's ass. He doesn't speak a single compliment or say anything grandiose that we've seen. Nor does he talk about himself relentlessly.So, a rich guy with no class who clowns himself by trying to schmooze and suck up to people in order to make business connections? Gee, where have we seen that before?
Honestly, this is not unsurprising or unrealistic. "Rich" doesn't mean you have to have class and be smooth at networking. Lots of rich people, mostly those in the nouveau riche category, are completely classless and tacky and tend to lack the sense of refinement and tact of those who come from old money. So Sage's Dad might be rich, but that doesn't stop him being an embarassing buffoon who gets on people's nerves with his brash attitude.
This characterization of Mr. Man-Bun is really getting fabricated at this point. He's definitely eccentric, as people in-game say, but the intentional networking and shmoozing angle is conjecture at this point.
