I don't think this fits anyone's definition of work:

He's paying a talented guy to do something and then claims it as his own, that's definitely work! (Well, at least that's pretty close to his actual work as a company owner).

His real full time job is watching alt-right videos and memes on YouTube and 4chan.

It seems as though you are trying to say that he isn’t a workaholic because he’s not very dedicated to playing games, but that surely doesn’t make sense.

He said he was very dedicated, but turned out he wasn’t (surprise). What else could he be lying about? Surely not his work ethic

I kind of don't imagine a workaholic having online gaming scandal about paying someone to run a game for them and then doubling down on that, but well, I was already told before I lack imagination.

That is kinda orthogonal to being a workaholic.

It isn't hard to imagine someone spending 16 hours of working and then going home and playing a game and putting in money to make themselves more powerful in the game.
