there's a few factors for his early success

* released lots of videos, definitely helped with the algorithm
* actually went outside to buy games at early release and had videos up on day1 (at times when physical sales still mattered)
* unfiltered gameplay (no walkthrough, no review, no promo). just an average retard stumbling through the game

Especially in respect to the last 2 points it's important to remember that streaming didn't really exist, and a lot of people were already pretty jaded about IGN and their ilk. Nowadays no one needs DSP for the raw gameplay (it's everywhere) plus his commentary and gameplay are ass, so no one watches his garbage.
And dummy hasn't ever pivoted from this mindset, although he'll pretend that "thoroughly taking his time with a game is more meaningful" or something. He's eternally stuck in wanting things to be like 2011-2014.

On release, as in midnight the game comes out, you can typically find people streaming the game who are competent, some who are awful but entertaining, and some in the middle of both, on top of typically having a no-commentary single video for both the story & cutscenes only and something that has playthrough too.

Phil somehow checks none of these boxes, then whines about views, while also whining that he doesn't want to be a big deal. He was so close the other day in his mini rant about Maximillian Dood being able to do anything on stream because he's entertaining, but somehow missing the ocean by not coming to the conclusion that Phil therefore is not entertaining (nor even remotely likeable) therefore doesn't have that luxury.
 
Im watching the video and he talks about his fat wife has something personal and texting dsp? Is that the Jenna thing that happened a few days ago?
I like that even in this situation HE IS THE VICTIM cause he is getting texted by his wife?
Apparently she had to either work late, or do something after work. It ruined Phil's night. Later on someone asked Phil how his dinner was and he sounded fucking pissed and said it sucked. Guess he was pissed horsewife couldn't cook him dinner or order doordash for him. Lazy narcissist at work

(I stole this info from a video Doody posted this morning, if you want to know more. Jordan has also broken the pignosis. )

He wants it to be even before that. Because 2012ish came the competiton. More likeable guys with the knowledge to make Direct capture work easily plus better game play. Phil could never compete with tht. Heck in some of his earlier rant vidoes (like "I haven't changed!") he ranted about competition and that he needs good games so that his "meaningful" playthroughs are good. He still doesn't realize he needs to be entertaining to make games good. The only time he is somewhat entertaining is when he fucks stuff up (so not reading guides)
Heck it took him until 2013 to finally move to Direct Capture, probably because he realized that his misunderstanding of US copyright law did not apply to Direct Capture of video game footage. And even after he made the switch his career was slowly dying because it's Phil. He never realize3d that HE, YES HE is the problem all along
 
Damn. This place is silent with Boogie getting buried...

It's great to see another big donator switch sides. Jordan has been in the comment sections of detractor videos the last couple of days. He said he liked the small community of DSP's chat, but after watching all the proof of his donations going to Hogan pulls, he said he will no longer give Phil any money. Guess he has been chatting with Doody as well.

He's even going to go into the next Stardew stream and let all chat know! That's if DSP doesn't get to and ban him first, I guess.

Jordan had to have been one of the top 5 or so income streams. Looks like someone is going to have to up their tithes to make up for it! We all know who DSP will expect to cover the loss.
 
imo there is a pretty good chance that this is just the faggot just trolling doody and the dentractors, and will blow his load dropping a fat tip on the stardew stream. or maybe it really is a rando that broke the pignosis. guess we'll see.

so either doody comes out looking like a fucking moron, or dsp loses another whale. frankly both outcomes are inevitable regardless of what actually happens lol
 
Or "Jordan" is doing whatever for attention, which is the whole reason these lonely dents throw lots of money at Phil to begin with.

I've never understood people trying to reach out to whales for conversations trying to reason with them.
I may not understand it but I like it when it happens, because inevitably the whale will reveal themselves to be yet another idiot with no future, no sexual history and not nearly enough cash to afford keeping Phil afloat to his satisfaction.

This makes it much easier to accurately generalize all of Phil’s supporters as retarded, forever-alone faggots.
 
Reaching out and trying to reason with dents is more dented in comparison. The “Oh, wow, I didn’t know that about the guy” shtick is so fake and gay that it’s no wonder Doody’s dumbass fell for it in the first place. Jordan and his ilk should be treated like the retarded faggots that they are b/c they are soulless ATMs that Phil will discard and completely forget about the next day.
 
Phil's found another thing to complain about in Street Fighter 6. It turns out underhanded people have been watching "How to beat Bison videos" online and are implementing those strategies against him. Learning and getting better at the game is unequivocally not permitted against him.
He already indirectly said this a few streams ago. I don’t remember the exact quote but he mentioned how day one people put out videos on how to counter bison and he said “at least let me play the character first”

He literally just wants everyone to be clueless arcade players like 30 years ago, peak boomersydephil in action

It’s actually almost admirable how blatant he is about how much he hates basically every aspect of modern fighting games and the FGC as a whole
 
Memology with a new banger.
1:55 the game goes to menu, dsp says he never touched it *puts up his hand*, claiming it was the joystick.
BUT you can clearly see him putting down his hand and even pressing the button. You can hear it!
SO WHY THE FUCK WOULD THIS RETARD LIE ABOUT THINGS YOU CAN GO BACK AND WATCH?



This man is seriously mentally ill. There's no other possible conclusion.


Anyway, wanted to post this clip of him using a 4 dollar tip to - probably successfully - guilt-trip his audience during the stream just now:



Sad fact is that there are people out there that fall for this kind of shit.

EDIT:

He followed that up with an absolutely shameless and disgusting MASSIVE guilt-trip, begging people to fulfill the $50 tip goal as quickly as possible to make him stop "worrying":

Phil wanting it both ways is another thing that makes him look like an asshole…

If you want a set salary, get a job. If you want to be rewarded based on contributions for putting out content or something, then accept that some days will be lower than others.

Also he knows that putting smaller number/larger number is equivalent to holding out his hand the whole time. There are few id any streamers who let on that they’ll be hiring if their goals aren’t met.

In fact he hasn’t hit the tip goal plenty and last I checked, he keeps coming back. So must not be that dire then…
