DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[gettingthatgrooveback]

I stopped playing vidya a long time ago, but Mirror’s Edge was one of my favourites, so I wanted to check out a bit of his gameplay. What I saw was appalling.

Here’s a clip of him trying to make a jump.

'But how are you supposed to know that?'

THE GAME TEACHES YOU THAT AT THE VERY BEGINNING!

'So, you have to jump and hit left trigger which I didn’t realise. The game didn’t really give me any indication.'

NIGGA, THE FACT THAT YOU DIED MULTIPLE TIMES WAS PLENTY INDICATION!

It’s astonishing. I am convinced now that he has a learning disability. He just doesn’t have the attention and/or memory necessary to follow and/or remember instructions.
In the above clip, he was looking down mid-air not realising that kills your momentum. He has finished hundreds of videogames in the past 15 years and is still oblivious to mechanics shared by all games. It’s flabbergasting.
And to cap it off, he always blames the game instead of evaluating what he does wrong. He autistically demands that the game abides by his own rules instead of the other way round. 15 years now!!! and still hasn’t found out that this is not a viable approach.
He has this autistic disdain of mistakes. It’s not a joke anymore to claim that he expects to beat every videogame without making a mistake. When the game enables him to make a mistake it’s somehow always the game’s fault for fooling him.

He also still hasn’t recognized the very prominent pattern of:

• Fail to take in instructions
• Game asks him to do something using those instructions
• Fails to do it
• Repeats doing the same thing that doesn’t work
• Blames game for not accepting his method
• Somehow figures out how to do the right thing (these days the chat always tells him)
• Blames game for not spoonfeeding him the correct method

He still can’t see that he commits to this after being called out over the years! How can a man lack so much knowledge of his own behaviour? It’s not even funny anymore. I mean, if he can’t admit this to himself, how can he admit to his irresponsible and egregious spending? It all ties together. If he fails to adapt his behaviour while playing games over the course of 15 years, how do you expect him to overcome the real hurdles of everyday life? He is, for the lack of a better word, dysfunctional.

Black Mesa tought him the crouchjump early in the game, it even said on the screen how to perform it.
He would be still on the first crane if he was playing without chat.

AKA the "bugged jumping mechanic", according to Phil at the time.

 

[TheGreatWhiteNorth]

I think Phil is the last person on Earth who still unironically uses the phrase "Epic fail."

Considering that he sounds like a complete idiot when he tries to sound smart, this is apropo.

It's been a long while since Phil could by any measure be considered successful, especially since he's bankrupt and lying about his WWE CHAMPIONS TIME spending, so my theory is he's channeling his only succesful era of his life, being top of the class in a high school for basketball American matriculation. The thing about students in school is they are punished for making mistakes and only recognized for getting the one right answer, the one the teacher wants them to give to whatever is being asked. You are seeing this dynamic in action still, there's only one right answer, the one DSP thinks will work, when he gets it wrong, all the time, he rages at the game for telling him he's wrong, since the game can't send him to the dean of students office for acting out in rage afterwards, he feels safe to behave that way when he gets corrected on how he failed to solve the game problem presented to him, even if it's as simple as completing a jump. Since the game won't stay on "after class" aka the stream is over, to tutor DSP in how to solve the problems it presents to him in the course of playing it, Phil will instead insist on being correct and making it bend to his desire to validate his low IQ attempts at solving the presented scenario. This all helps explain how he can incorrectly define common terms such as "rainy day fund," it was never on a test, he was never forced to change his stupid idea of what it means to the popular adopted meaning of the phrase and never got the idea that being smart in a stupid person's high school means you're average intelligence, at best, in the general population outside of there.

It reads as if you are tired of his narcissistic deflection of his failures, which isn't surprising, his whiny pig squeals and snorts and throat clears and burps (list can continue for a while....) in between his narc ego exposes have a very short entertainment shelf life, my best suggestion is to react to these annoying personality anchors he displays in the way that would frustrate a narc if you were dealing with them in real life, play dumb to the issue, and reflect the problem back on the narc with a question. "Why is the game not letting you do that? I don't know, pigroach, something must have been too substandard to win there huh, wonder what it could have been?" Using Phil's own feigned ignorance to highlight the problem, himself, doesn't play into his "did nothing wrong" trap, which is what he's trying to lure you into falling for each and every example of this that is streamed six days a week.

 

[Kosher Dill]

And he's hinting at Earthbound the billionth time

Earthbound would be hilarious just to watch every single joke fly over his head. Him mean-mugging his way through the game would be some sort of avant-garde performance art.

Now in reality, webcam was bad in WWE too, I was too fast to give him credit. Mic keeps breaking, so does OBS and he has to restart and it's all because of 1080p webcam! So 1080p during fullscreen cam only.
People told him Forbidden City ending would take X time but it took him way longer than some people told him so fuck you guys, no really. Forbidden city bugged out dood AND HIS DINNER WAS COLD. Was SHOCKED that Forbidden City got money.

So Mirror's Edge is nostalgia bait that didn't get money and that worries him because his plans were as thus, play random garbage but no one wants to pay for it.

Triple beg for a game no one asked for.

"We can't have it be that night streams are so slow that I could have just not streamed at all." Waited 9 years to play Mirror's Edge with direct capture and now he can't play what he wants, wtf guys. And he's hinting at Earthbound the billionth time so expect him to push that the fuck in.
Really hopes it's a fluke, just keep saying that and it will fix everything. Empty threats galore.

The best way to explain Phil to people outside of the vortex why Phil is a lolcow when they only know him as a guy that is bad at games is to tell them that whenever he fails at a game due to retardation he thinks he is perfect and that he game is the one that is wrong, and when doing that add to it the fact that this is not an independent thing that only happens when playing video games, Phil is a narcissist who has the same mindset in every facet of his life , so his entire life is a TIHYDP.

 

[garrybkk]

There are countless examples of him being retarded, yet people still refuse to believe he has autism. Why does no one make a 3 hour analysis on this like the one on narcissism?

autism symptoms and signs​

• Abnormal Tone of Voice
• Avoidance of Eye Contact or Poor Eye Contact
• Behavioral Disturbances
• Deficits in Language Comprehension
• Delay in Learning to Speak
• Flat or Monotonous Speech
• Inappropriate Social Interaction
• Intense Focus on One Topic

That Steve of the Dead guy routinely does several-hour videos breaking down his various diagnosis for DSP. He's a nutcase too though.

"She missed the jump!!" I guess the game was just playing itself. You gotta love how his gin riddled brain works- phil screws up and his first thought is it must be the character that he is controlling that screwed up.

 

[strandedcastaway]

Blaming a game badly + never being able to admit you made a mistake = Phil's game commentary that he thinks deserves hundreds of dollars a day.

This is how every Assassins Creed went back in the day. He'd blame the character for his mistakes, call them a dumbass, etc.

Technically he doesn't need it as we'll see later.

in the above clip, he was looking down mid-air not realising that kills your momentum.

And yes, he stops there for quite a few times, but the important part is the "I missed it".

Anyway, how did previous Phil try to solve it? Push a button on the crane.

Finally:

Look how chill he was, even took out the cops most of the time. Now he needs the game delivered the game on a silver platter, actual brain rot.

Retweets tend to be more "look at this" rather than "I agree with this".

Another thing that I've noted in Phil's commentary is that he doesn't seem to recognize that he is in direct controll of whichever character he is playing,but rather seems to blame the game for not implementing is intended inputs (not to be confused with his actuall inputs) e.g "she didn't jump" (as opposed to "I missed the jump") or "I wanted to dodge but still got hit" (as opposed to "I got hit because I dodged too late").

Must be that input lag dood.

He just doesn't want to take responsibility, he's an autistic narcisissit after all. If he fucks up, the game fucked up. Like when he says "there was no way to know, begginers trahp dood!" He truly feels like he can and should be able to beat any game never failing it, provided it was 'well designed'.

Earthbound would be hilarious just to watch every single joke fly over his head. Him mean-mugging his way through the game would be some sort of avant-garde performance art.

His last Earthbound playthrough was verging on a war crime. DQ-style RPGs are not typically much fun to watch someone else play, even through nostalgia goggles, and his experience was full to the brim of classic LP don’ts: singing along to the music (never do this, doubly so if the music is good), saying what’s on the screen, reading the text, and aimless meandering.

Go ahead. Sit through more than two parts of this dumpster fire. I dare you.
