Holy shit I just saw Phil's latest 2am gin tweet, posted almost exactly at 2am Seattle time

Thats what I don't get and what @Pretty Boy Extremism pointed out. Dude, you're playing fucking Skyrim. Skyrim! A game that's been released on every fucking platform possible multiple times... And you're talking about people who are playing GTAV? At least GTAV has an online mode so you can have a somewhat different experience every time you play. He's playing Skyrim on console with no mods, no multiplayer, and no real new content outside of armor packs and creation shit.

He's literally playing the meme of "JUST FUCKING LET IT DIE ALREADY" games:

And he's talking shit about people playing the "same old shit". I'm wondering if this dude even has a mirror in his house.

How do people look forward to this. Can't he do wwe 2k22 or something to mix things up even a little bit.

So, this should confirm he just likes hearing himself talk and wants to create multiple avenues to complain on. There is literally no reason he should spend an hour talking about his schedule and what he's playing, have a typed out schedule on Twitter, and have a "Daily Wrap" all saying the same shit every single day.

I know Phil knows how stupid his audience actually is, just look how many times he reminded people about Daylight Saving Time, but it's truly mind-blowing how he's groomed his audience of wheel chairs into thinking that him and they aren't the ones stupid... its the rest of the world.
 
Youtube started playing the AVGN Season 1 video for me the other day, and I listened to the first maybe 10 minutes for the first time in probably a decade. It really hammered home not only how much DSP copied from AVGN, but how DSP's idea of humour hasn't changed one iota since then. The amount of talking about shit, anus, anal, diarrhea, etc. is ridiculous but I couldn't help but think "this could literally be something DSP would say in an Elden Ring stream today".
Phil has said multiple times he was "inspired" by AVGN
I think he missed the fact that the AVGN is a character James plays though. When Phil did it it just came across like a genuine asshole.
 
God damn. He’s gonna milk the absolute fuck outta that one paypig.
You are absolutely right, the guy has been an open wallet for Phil during ER and Phil knows it, get ready for hitting the tips goal right away everyday followed by the I haven't got a tip in 3 hours sad beg almost daily.

Phil is going to have to stall for a few streams and "explore" as if guided to victory. This is going to suck, hope it gives us some salt.
We don't even need games to accentuate phil's contempt for the dream jahb that became a nightmare anymore. Waking up is enough to drop him right back into the most challenging game of all. It might be boring as fuck but I still get a kick out of him subsisting as everything he claims to hate and rail aganst.
This is why Phil is not about to drop the video games entirely, any time soon, if ever. He knows that the more he talks, without a distraction, the worse it gets. There's a reason the pre-stream is long, but not long enough to fill the whole damn day.
 
Allow me to vent and sperg about his Skyrim playthrough.

Like seriously, holy fuck, for a man thats currently playing his 2nd playthrough and watches his wife play Skyrim every day, hes so fucking disguistingly shit at the game. He invented the most boring way to play the game. He's lvl 43 already btw. He rushes in, standing still pressing power attack, until the enemies come to him (dealing fuckall damage because he hasn't improved his sword), he dies (gets blown up because he hasn't improved his armor), then after he dies, he reloads and spawns 2 summons to do the fighting for him, while he stands behind them, watching them while having his smugass look/mouthbreathing. When not engaged in combat he giga stalls the living shit out of the game, reading eevery single line of dialog, overexplaining shit, inspecting eevery item he gets in the game, while manically turning his head to look at his monito for MUH TIPS. It's honestly one of his worst playthroughs and a disservice to the Elder scrolls franchise.
Best part? He's playing on Adept difficulty.
 
it just came across like a genuine asshole.
Because he is a genuine asshole.

AVGN is a character, DSP saw that and said “hey, he’s just like me! I can do that too!” He saw AVGN gain popularity($$$) acting like an asshole so Phil tried to imitate that. Except what was supposed to be an act, ended up revealing DSP’s true colors.

DSP always was and forever will be: an asshole.

Here's my "fixed" version

But wait, I thought KoFVX was dead after a week cause it's a crap game not street fighter and no one is playing H:FW because Elden Ring came out and now they are but boring people are playing GTAV,

Instead of such hit games like Skyrim re-re-re-re-re-release and The SF collection that he's only playing till he can buy the next version of SF2.

NO FUN ALLOWED.


You would think that someone who has conned dentheads out of $1000 on Elden Ring over the past few days would be a little more cheery.

Nope.

Jesus that video. There's so much there. Like that look he has playing and how his movements its like he's having a series of ministrokes or fighting possession. They seem involuntary.

His complaining about his shitty game play makes me really curious of how skewed he sees reality.

Everything he complains about is either not happening or his doing. I don't mean dropped inputs or lag. I mean things that are clearly not happening like complaining he can't move cause he's stuck on all the buildings as he's clearly moving and there's no buildings or complaining that the game won't let him hit the target as he's clearly standing too far away and/or not aiming at anything that he can hit.

He actually says he doesn't understand how he's out of range.

Gee phil, if you're the one controlling the character so you can move further or closer to the thing you're trying to hit and YOU are the one who is out of range....hmm.

Must be one of dem der puzzely type of bosses. Like if it's weak to acid, and it tells you it's weak to acid, when you hit it with acid it tells you that you hit it with it's weakness THEN....hit with everything besides acid only to decide to later hit it with acid.

damn you puzzle bosses.

How is he this stupid? Is it early onset Alzheimer? brain rot from gin? performance art?

Funny thing is, this fight probably would have been so much easier if he actually did all that boring fluff grinding and upgraded his shit. Which is another so weird thing, well go off to east jesus no where and meander about doing fuck all in skyrim and elden ring so he can over level content but this game actually wants you to do that to upgrade your shit and it's bloated grindy bullshit the game should just give him things.

is it cause Aloy is a wahmesns phil?

speaking of horizon, he said that it's a flop and will be on sale in months. So by that logic your precious game pass is a complete bust since not only is ti on sale more often than not for $1 for 3 months but now they're just giving 3 months away for playing MS games.

why are you this way, PP?
 
Remember back during the "I'm totally not going to CT with Khet to get married" saga when detractors drew a rough plan of his "office" and the setup and made suggestions on how to improve his absolutely retarded setup only for him to cry victim and claim that detractors are planning to break into his house and steal all his shit?

I do not, I didnt discovered DSP until somewhat recently after watching a mini documentary on YouTube about him. I would love to learn more about the break in saga lmao.
Okay no. The break in saga was not us rearranging his office. It was even dumber. It was a pretty obvious LARP thread where we talked about fucking with Phils house when he went on vacation. Part of that was rearranging his office. Some of that was cleaning. Some of it was leaving him strategy guides. So on and so forth.

It gets even stupider, because he used it as justification to leave a house sitter. To which we were all like "fukkin wut" until it turned out he had a cat at the time. Which people had guessed any way. At that point.
 
On a whim I looked through PPG to find where DSP decided a new era of his streams were occurring. Made sure not to include any that were transcription errors or gameplay dialogue. The results for how far back I went:

The first era: February 2018.
Screen Shot 2022-03-15 at 13.59.29.png

The second era: August 2018.
Screen Shot 2022-03-15 at 13.58.57.png

The third era: September 2020.
Screen Shot 2022-03-15 at 13.56.36.png

The fourth era: December 2020.
Screen Shot 2022-03-15 at 13.57.16.png

The fifth era: December 2021.
Screen Shot 2022-03-15 at 13.57.31.png


This doesn't include things like GamePass, blowing bubbles, Elden Ring, and other bullshit that he claims will completely revitalize his streams.
 
His footage is providing nothing but endless clips of him engaging in bad acting and demonstrating even more powerfully than before that he fucking SUCKS.
You can keep your TIHYDPs for this one, I wanna see the Elden Ring This Is How You Don't Act. Just a half hour of Phil's goldfish faced "wooooahh!!" and "this is weeeeird".
 
blowing bubbles,
This. This singular thing blows my mind more than any of Phil's other antics. The hat, and vest are stupid. The bubbles are levels of cringe I didn't think we could reach on this particular cow. Maybe we can convince him to dress in drag. Gender Bender once his wheelchairs reach $200 in tips. :story:

It goes without saying, but also: "Some boring people are playing a poorly performing version of a 35-year-old fighting game online every Friday night, over low-data connections against developmentally different young men."

The chair spinning was my own lowlight. Honestly, cringed my asshole right up into the back of my throat with that one, especially when he was wearing the plat vest and faking dizziness as well.

That fucking fake dizziness still kills me. Like, how he can call himself not a muppet. But do that. I just can't wrap my head around how he isn't even slightly ironic.
