Yeah it seems that he or one of his fans stopped paying for his sub bots because he was getting about 1k subs per month in a span of a week. Not sure how accurate Social Blade is but you can see a weird increase of subs once a month in a span of a week. This created this mountain range looking graph which makes it seem inorganic. When I looked at other channels like An1337 and ReviewTechUSA their graphs seemed more organic with an up down pattern that seems normal for most channels.

DSP saying its because of game releases being meh is either two things. One he is in copium mode and cannot face the fact his channel is on life support by some weird fans paying for subs and memberships. Or two, he is the one paying for these subs but due to lack of extra revenue coming in, he is prioritizing his gacha addiction over improving his channel. Even though "improving" his channel means paying for subs to seem like his channel is active. Phil does Pay To Win in his mobile games and now it may seem he is doing it for his livelihood. This is what a person does when they are stuck at Level One, pay to get to higher levels but still failing.

I don't get it. How DSP thinks or his thought process.

Is it even called lying when you say something this is just simply wrong or made up entirely?

Would DSP meet the criteria literally for Atelophobia? Or even Atychiphobia?

Remember, he admitted recently whenever he says

"IM GOING TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST WITH YOU...."

It actually doesn't mean he is being honest, it just means he is about to say something important, and it's called MANNERISM OF SPEECH

hope that clears up your question about Phil's thought process and his habit of lies

His "hot new releases" model is so outdated. There are tons of streamers now who play the same game every day but get tons of engagement.

I wouldn't say the model is outdated, the issue Phil has is that he's so bad and lazy at it. His biggest problem is that he treats it like it was 2010 and the only people who got early access were "professional reviewers" who were mostly seen as out of touch. But now, any idiot with a sizable following can send an email to a publisher for an early copy and has a chance to get it, with some publishers more than willing to ask for the coverage leading to most streamers getting the early access needed to make the model viable. Phil doesn't do that, he just relies on getting the games day one and waits hours to begin his streaming, leading him to miss out on day one views as most will have either gotten it days before or started at hour 0. On top of that Phil has nothing to add to make himself stand out, he blends into the sea of nobodies playing the games. When the fact that he almost never plays indie games day one is added into the mix and the only reason someone may consider watching him is whether or not they respect his opinions on gaming and with a reputation like his, the obvious answer is no.

It wouldn't matter what games Phil plays on stream because no matter what "model" he uses, he will always lack the key thing that makes a successful streamer: charisma. He's like a vacuum of talent and charisma. Even when he gets a large (for him) number of eyes on him, they're gone before the end of that stream. He gives no reason for people to stick around, no insight to the games he plays, no skills when playing, no sense of interest in the games he plays. All he does is beg for money and gets pissy when he has to engage his singular braincell, which leads him to play games that he thinks won't require it.

Funny this starts up after her unemployment was discovered and a photo of her from a year ago looking worse for wear than Phil (how the fuck can you manage that).

No. This is completely out of character for DSP and you should know better by now. Phil does not invest money to grow his own business. He thinks he deserves growth naturally because he's such a robust content creator. It goes against his ego and narrative. He's an entitled fuck.

He's not paying for subs or view bots. One of his dents like OIC? Sure, probably. Phil himself?! Never. The pay2win mobile comparison is bad, because he's investing no effort into his business and shows no enthusiasm for it like he does for his sweaty men jpegs.

Youtube stopped giving out accurate sub numbers, you just see the first three digits. RTU is active enough to still get subs and AN is small enough to still see these kind of changes. He has admitted during the ER time that he usually got 2-5 subs a day but was getting 50 during the release of ER which I can believe. The weird jumps come from the api only increasing the sub count when his subs increase by 1K total.

Yeah I didn't know how accurate Social Blade is and how it worked but I found it interesting that his channel has such an odd graph when I compared to others (I did see more than two channels but didnt want to add all of them). Either way it is good to know that just incase others wanted to use Social Blade to see anything supscious on his channel.
I guess there isn't an accurate way to track his subs, still his channel is dying regardless. I have seen channels with far less subs have more views. He really didn't know how to run his channel and at this point its a horse on its last legs.

Check out other channels with Social Blade. I've seen that pattern on lots of them, and I think it might just be a quirk of how it handles data.

It's more a case of "will x game hook me a new whale?" and "how little effort will it require?" rather than if it's a hawt new release.

Yeah he knows he's only playing for such a handful of people at this point. The VIPs with the wallets so he's a very very choosy beggar with his games now despite having a library of shit handed to them in a subscription form.

He doesn't have much confidence in "Fuck you I'm playin whatever and you guys will show up anyway" attitude. He can't because well he doesn't enjoy many games. Any choice in games now is 100% funded from handshakes under the table so he knows people will show up because he can predict and control how well the playthrough will go.

So he's rambling on about how much he knows about Castlevania, even though he never played any of them but played sotn but rage quit it but claimed one of the coolest parts of SotN was terrible.

Knows everything about it, though last time he talked about this, Castlevania 2 is just like 1 and 3 and it's a horror game.

His autism for being a contrarian of EVERYTHING is clashing with his desperate need for validation by fake fanning literally everything.
