Jim Sterling / James "Stephanie" Sterling / James Stanton/Sexton & in memoriam TotalBiscuit (John Bain) - One Gaming Lolcow Thread

Can I point out the complete absence of Christmas crackers on that table? He is in Britain now, even the poorest benefit dossers still manage to have crackers for all the xmas guests.
No crackers…. Wtf. What a joyless looking table.

For those not in the know. It is customary, nay, fucking obligatory to have crackers on any Christmas dining table in Britain.

You can also get incredibly cheap, shitty crackers for like 5 pounds for a full set. Yeah the only thing you'll get from them are a paper hat and a bad joke but its part of the fun.

I'm actually sort of worried for Jim now, if he can't even afford to get some crackers on the table he probably won't be able to pay for his estrogen this time next year considering his contracting viewers.

This fucking table picture has so many layers that reveal more and more about Jim's sad state of affairs the more you look at it, its like Groverhaus from Somethingawful.

 

[Dumpster dived waifu]

I'm really starting to wonder if Jim got himself into massive medical debt in the US. I can't think of a more compelling answer for why a man with so much money lives in such abject squalor.

I think the answer is so much simpler; he's squandered it all on microtransactions. He's mentioned across dozens of videos that they're predatory and people like him have a hard time resisting because they need an adult to stop them.

I can almost guarantee that he's spent thousands opening lootboxes trying to get dopamine hits.

I just always derive a particular amusement from fat people who show they don't even know how to cook or eat well. Most everything on that table looks shit, like it was deli bought or prepackaged. Now some families will have traditional recipes that look crap, but not the whole table - Think if some mediocre grandma's ketchup meatloaf became a tradition after a generation of familial poverty, and it will persist into a period of familial wealth.

With how fat Jim is, you'd expect that table to be absolutely laden, especially with the number of places set. I'm guessing Jims one of the constant eating types instead of a big eater.

 

[Moja Zemlja]

If this is what Jim's household looks like, on fucking Christmas no less, the time of year everybody puts the most amount of effort to make their dinner presentable, what does all his patreon bux go into?

Garbage, early this month he bought a Godzilla pinball machine that and the cheapest I could find for sale was £5000. He claims it’s from “freelance work” when someone mentions his Patreonbux but the only freelance work he’s done is write for Vampire Survivor and do wrestling, I doubt he’s managed to make that much between them.

Jim has many addictions, including gambling. I don't think he has any money saved up.

Wrestling not only doesn't bring money in - bust costs money typically. Jim likely has to kick cash in to get billing from the smaller leagues/federations because otherwise there's no way he'd get booked.

The only wrestlers that can "kind of" eek out a shitty living are the full time ones, traveling constantly and working with multiple federations with a real aspiration and chance to get into one of the "major" leagues. Even then it's really terrible money (like sub minimum wage), extremely dangerous, and constantly living out of shitty hotels.

And there's no way that an indie game, no matter the hit scale, payed Jim any notable amount (or honestly anything at all) for his 'contribution' to the writing. Little things like that in indie darlings are usually free community contribution type deals, or tiny little "I'll paypal you $50" type deals.

Not to mention his proven contribution to Vampire Survivors is so trivial and so phoned in and cliche that I wouldn't even allow him to pay ME to put something like that in a game I made.

Funny that he chose VS, seeing as the lead dev had experience working in the gambling industry and used what he knew to make VS.

Must've attracted Jim like a moth to a flame, and he still lost money because we don't know if the devs paid him...

 

[CaptainAutism69]

I stopped watching this cunt when he started trooning out. Just popped into see how far he's trooned out, and I'd say he's close to joining the 41%ers in 2023.

That would be the greatest twist possible if it turned out all these years bitching about microtransactions was actually him projecting because he's financially ruined himself over them.

Whatever the answer ends up being I think we can all agree there is no way a man living like this has a significant amount of money saved in the bank. It's going to be extremely interesting to see how this arc develops as his Patreon continues to decline.

 

[The Skeksis Emperor]

What a joyless looking table.

That's the perfect description of that table and that room. Joyless like the rest of Jim's life right now.

 

[Spiral Architect]

Shit. I wish i didn't learn he wrote some stuff for vampire survivors. It was on my backlog it and while i'm usually quite good at separating works from the author this time i don't think i'll be able to forget this mentally ill fat fuck had something to do with it. Well, into the trash it goes.

It's literally a bestiary entry in a game with zero story. I've owned the game since release and have never looked at it once

 

[Florence]

This looks more like a student house than the house of a grown ass man. Was it too much to ask to buy 2 tableplastics to cover the whole table? Also, the food does not look appealing at all.

I’ve genuinely seen better Christmas dinners from students — this was on a society’s annual Christmas trip. Half a dozen people cooking for 30, el cheapo ingredients from Aldi, plus a load of dietary requirements and it still turned out better than Jim’s dinner.

I played it, and he just did monster descriptions. If you never click the bestiary button you'll never have to see fat fags writing.

A Jack and Jim crossover would probably result in a trial in the Hague

With Gordon Ramsay as the judge, I hope.
