Phil being confused at how Nvidia could possibly falsify the sale of graphics card use has got to be the most insufferable thing I've seen from him.
Blood pressure was going up and had to tap out for a bit for this one, I can't believe this idiot still manages to find ways to surprise me with his stupidity.
 
He's completely cut himself off from certain genres of games because he personally doesn't want to play them. Even though he acknowledges that games like Divinity 2, League of Legends, Total War, Overwatch, Rainbow Six: Siege, Hearthstone, MTG: Arena, Rimworld, Space Engineers, etc, et-fucking-cetra are all incredibly popular. He has all of these games to choose from, yet he's willingly sticking to his corner of generic linear singleplayer shooters, ARPGs and platformers, because it's what's comfortable for him.

Why? He doesn't want to have his ego challenged by anything even remotely competitive or cerebral, because as I've said before, his ego is more important than money is to him. Money is the vehicle through which he either inflates his ego, or avoids the reality of his situation. He will consciously avoid or abandon anything that directly challenges his ego, even if it makes him a lot of money because the money is ultimately counterproductive if he's being made to look like an idiot every stream.
That idea doesn't fly since he still plays competitive fighters. He loses more often than he wins in Street Fighter yet still plays them, and I don't feel it's that bad to not play games like the ones listed. I can't play squad vs games either just because I get too angry, but I have plenty of friends to play co-op games with. He does not.

The single player genres he refuses because he has no idea what they are, refuses to learn, and assumes that "indie" is a genre and won't play anything other than major publisher schlock.
 
He just said that he has a cup of coffee around dinner time. Might be the reason why he's up at 2 am tweeting nonsense

Well that and his retarded logic about lunch at night not counting as a meal from the other day. Again, if you fuck around with your meal timing, you screw up your horomones (seriously), making you hungrier and potentially eating more, and gaining weight as a result.

He only plays Street Fighter to pubstomp complete newbies. He played KoF for all of two streams and immediately quit when he started facing good players. He stuck with Halo: Infinite because the matchmaker was giving him dentheads and everyone found out later that he was actually in the bottom 10% of players or some shit.

He plays all sorts of random indie crap all the way to its conclusion so I don't know what you mean here. He consciously avoids anything labeled "sandbox", "puzzle" or "strategy".

Because for the most part, those indie titles don't "stress" him like "sandbox", "puzzle" or "strategy" games, because those require you to use your brain and "work" to enjoy the game. He really is fucking lazy. Which is why he was fucking fishing all the time during Minecraft, or taking "suggestions" on what to build from dentheads.
 
Looks like he's reflected in a spoon. Or a shiny door knob.

I can understand these games not being good, Rainbow Six Siege, not an easy game to play, you should most likely focus on it...and more than that, you need to be a team player! (same with MTG apart from team player)
Hearthstone, it basically turned into "pay to win", it already went down the drain with "Old Gods", it killed off any form of creativity as Cunt'thun was the way to go for an easy victory...didn't play much after that and gave my account to Proper...

I very much agree, the three games above were poor examples of games to play though, as they crave a lot of learning before becoming competitive and the rest of the competition is years ahead...
I want piggy to try Trials Rising (which is the easiest, kind of, of the series) as he's bound to rage and scream - it's the only game I love that I want to see him fail at, failing is the name of that game so it won't bother me like seing him "play" Quake does...

He didn't even acknowledge the tip. I swear these troll tippers are more dented than the already indoctrinated ones. Way to go there, ya sure got him good idiot
I agree, I don't care about most of the idiots that gives Dave money, these "Durr-hurr, funny, right?" Redditards are a special breed of stupid though, they're approaching Derich territory TBH...

Edit: added the extra responce

It has nothing to do with these games having a high skill ceiling. Being good ≠ being entertaining. It might not be fun for him to get placed in bronze or silver playing R6S ranked, but a player's skill is only one component of why people watch them play games. Seeing someone talk through their thought process as they breach a building and engage with Siege's unique tactical mechanics should be interesting in and of itself, regardless of skill level; the game is more or less a canvas for their personality.

To me, it's incredibly boring to have a guy say absolutely nothing while playing a complex game at a high level very quickly. That is not how you reach a casual audience. Plenty of esports pros do this and their streams top out at ~100-150 viewers.

You're approaching this from a player's perspective, not a content creator's.

Bro they're trolling him so hard, they should troll even harder and make the cringier pop-ups come up, the 4.20 isn't even that cringe. Omg wait til you see how trolled he'd feel if they sent him a $50 with a name related to WWE Champions he'll be mega trolled then.

Maybe even a reference to the masturbation as a $20 superchat that will get deleted immediately dude they're trolling him so hard it almost makes me feel bad for Phil 😔

They are. Phil only acknowledges troll tips when he doesn't understand the reference, and then you just get one of his stupid reactions.

Why can't people just stop giving him money.
 
this is what I mean about having a hard time distinguishing between dent troll or dent fan.

Like it's something his dent headed fans would say to defend him on but it also reads TOO much like a DSP dent head to the point of making fun of his 5 fans or something phil would say yet he's a member so might as well be a fan.

I kind of agree, buuuuut, how many streamers do you know of that would jump in late into a competitive game and comment like that...? (rather than do the same sort of commentary in a new game where everyone starts at lvl 0 at the same time?)
Why would an unskilled streamer talk about the process of breaching a building and talk about tactical mechanics they know nothing about? (they'd most likely break the wall and give a beautiful target for someone's bullet,...which craves no commentary)

Sometimes the "it's piggy" makes people instantly claim "Whatever piggy said, the opposite" without just letting irrelevant shit pass....like why he doesn't play certain games, noone new to Hearthstone would check piggy, they'd go to Kripparian or similar dude that has knowledge, so why should he play them? (they won't draw new viewers and the ones he has won't be interested...especially the few whales still around)
