How fucking pathetic is it that Phil and those around him are just a bunch of users and transactional relationships? From Phil himself, his fans and those that "associate" with him, and his paypigs. That's an existence that is pure hell, no matter if you realize it or not.

I hate the Steve-of-the-dead armchair psych shit, but this is literally just a description of a narcissist.

I doubt phil can even imagine another way for human relationships to be.
 
There's an interesting wrinkle to what everybody is saying about Phil/Kino relationship... remember they cut him in on money by doing the RTU documentary react with him. They sent their paypigs to him and told them to support him.

Contrast that to the SideScrollers interview... remember that Phil thought it went well after the fact and the only thing that turned the tide was them taking in money the next day (or maybe it was the previous day's shoutouts, I don't remember, don't care) on his name. The views they had during and immediately after the interview weren't that different from some of the things they said the next day, just that one had $$$ attached to it and the other didn't. And most importantly, no $$$ to Phil.

I think there's an alternate universe where if they did the "decompress" with him, heck on his stream or theirs, but at least gave him some of the $$$, he doesn't have the negative opinion he did.

It is funny how much $$$ is what drives him, even if you get glimpses of other things (like humiliating himself to have guys to talk to).
Because it's all about money with Phil. It's not about anything else, if you really think about it. Like I've mentioned before, you're an asset to him. Friendship doesn't mean anything, being loved by two people that helped bring him into the world doesn't mean anything, having a loving partner doesn't mean anything....the only thing that Phil cares about is Phil, what you can do for Phil, and his bottom line.

What I've learned during the KC arch is this: if you cut him in on a few pennies, you can "razz" him, his fans, and even fat Khat. All he cares about is making those few extra nickels, that can feed his addiction. Again, it goes back to him only caring about his bottom line. You can make fun of him and Khat, but that comes with a price.

Now, had Craig cut him in on a percent of those Superchats during the "decompressing" stream, you bet your bottom dollar Phil would've been singing their high praises to this day, instead of Phil holding resentment towards them.
 
To add to Phil seeing friendships and relationships as entirely transactional, it's funny how much he talked about how grateful he is to Kino Casino for all they've done for him and how he made thousands out of their collabs, but when they asked for Phil to give them 100 subs, he just weaseled his way out and only gave 10 (I believe?).
You really can't make this shit up. Like that's Phil at his most grateful (probably the most grateful he's ever been to someone that isn't John Rambo).

I largely agree with the general sentiments about Phil's greed, but I don't think it's only about the money. Money is always a factor to some extent because Phil is greedy, but Phil latched onto the KC crew before they ever did any collab with him. That's how he joined their orbit in the first place, he was being a Derich in their chat because they were mocking ReviewTech and taking passive aggressive jabs at Phil. But Phil wasn't making any money being in their chat, and I don't think Phil had the foresight to think they might do a collab.

Phil wants friendships...but Phil's definition of friendship is very different from what the average person would use. He definitely views friends as what they can do for him, whether that's money or ego related. But even with Sidescrollers, he was giddy and acting like friends after the initial stream, even though they weren't giving him money. It was only when his chat convinced him that the interview went badly that he finally acknowledged it.

I think it's because of how desperate he is for a redemption arc. So he is still getting something out of the friendship, gratification. But it isn't just money, and we've seen Phil throw loyal paypigs under the bus before and ban them, even when they were donating pretty substantial amounts to him. It's probably like...80-90% money for Phil, then 10-20% a weird ego thing. Phil will "joke" about it, but he loved the kingly persona, and he's always wanted to be taken serious and have everyone treat him like he's an expert at everything, whether it's streaming, some fandom he's pretending to be a part of, fighting game (or gaming stuff in general) politics, etc.
 
To add to Phil seeing friendships and relationships as entirely transactional, it's funny how much he talked about how grateful he is to Kino Casino for all they've done for him and how he made thousands out of their collabs, but when they asked for Phil to give them 100 subs, he just weaseled his way out and only gave 10 (I believe?).

Imagine he didn't spend thousands of dollars (everything basically) on a PS5-nogames-pro and RGB shit and if he had the money and wasn't so niggardly about spending a single red dollar cent on anything besides himself and his throne of homosexuality then he might actually be getting the redemption run that he so desperately craves.

Gifting only 10 subs is the cheapest shit ever, especially after how much attention KC gave him on top of helping him redeem his image a bit. But hey at least he has flashy RGB shit that literally no one cares about because every other streamer on earth has that shit.

It's just like in the Richie Rich movie where there's some message about money being unable to buy true friends.

DSP really is the penultimate jackass.
 
spending 5 minutes staring at high pair that would win the round while trying to count and figure out if he has a straight or not. true gamba brain ignoring the win in his hand trying to chase a bigger payout :lossmanjack:
I haven't watched yesterday's stream yet but I remember that in the one before that he leveled up Flush twice and then got offered The Sun 3 times in a row (the card changes the suit of 3 cards of your choice into Hearts for those who don't know) AND HE DIDN'T PICK IT A SINGLE TIME! His gamba brain still doesn't get that the game is not poker, it's just loosely based on its rules and you're supposed to play into your "build" rather than follow the rules of poker to the letter. It's why there's so many great strategies that are based on High Card, the weakest hand in actual poker which doesn't matter in Balatro.
 
Every time he goes overtime is a detractor W.
I don't follow as much as I used to but it's equal parts interesting when he meets the goal and when he doesn't.

Everyone in here correctly predicts smug Phil and the rest of the cycle...

Everyone knows no matter how much money he gets it'll never go towards anything meaningful...

... we've been here before
 
An unrecorded pathetic & greasy beg from today's (December 13, 2024) Bloodbourne DLC PS5 Pro Boosted Begging stream.




"[Stellar Blade]'s ready to go! But, we gotta hit a hundred goals hit! When I hit a hundred, [Stellar Blade] boots up immediately!"
"But, we gotta hit it! And this week *SHAKES HEAD SADLY* we only hit four. So, that's what's taking so long, man."


In a sad attempt to encourage the Sugar Daddies into opening up the velcro wallets to fill the Qween's Purse and get the goals hit more consistently, Mr. Darksyde shows off his PS5 Pro dashboard and his installed copy of Stellar Blade. Pledging to start the full playthrough of a game he doesn't want to play (because of his bizarre aversion to big anime tiddies and his equally bizarre Married Mature Adult larp) once the Sugar Daddies finally fork over the money he feels entitled to get from his viewers.
There's no mention of felting trolls, no mention of a redemption arc, no mention of rejuvenation, just a 42 year old e-beggar trying to convince his shrinking audience into giving him $14,100.00 as fast as they can.
Also, there is no way in hell that Philip "Downfromtherafters" Burnell will not go back on his pledge to do a full playthrough of Stellar Blade once the Goals Hit number reaches 100.
The Qween Smugsydephil Arc is in the rearview mirror, and it's only going to get more pathetic and greasy from this point on, lads.

The Grift Continues . . .

He's floundering. if OIC is IronChef hes genuinely jealous of Darksydepimp. He was vocal until his arrival then nothing, not even moderation when someone called him a PDF and said he was Metokur massochist. This may age badly but at these rules I can't imagine this goal ever gets hit as is. There's just no reason to whale, if ironchef will let 27 dollars or whatever it was go unpaid RIP

It also shows how dumb he is and is unable to think ahead. As a child, he was probably a complete marshmallow test failure. He thinks one turn ahead and that's it, that's why he is great at manipulating dents, but not normal people (I use normal very liberally here).

If he had gifted them 100 subs, there was a high chance one or even multiple KC paypigs would have immediately or at his next stream returned him the favor and given him money, probably giving him more than he would have spent on them in the first place.

Doesn't the average Livestream viewer have the attention span of a small rodent or insect? Like I can understand live streamers have long term goals but who the fuck does he think is waiting on the edge of their seat (besides derish) to play some Sony game? I don't really want to shit on the game but will just say that for me personally it doesn't look appealing at all. There's a thousand other steam/whatever games he could play instead of this shit that would actually be interesting - instead he's trying to hold what looks like the most mainstream, generic game over his audience as some kinda "gotcha" (more like gacha lol)

Anyway I hope he doesn't ever reach the goal, not because I wish him misfortune but just because I want to see him do like a quadruple deluxe heart bypass redemption run playthrough of GTA or whatever game he has played 12 times previously. I'm sure that will work out great.

Like how long has he been pining on about this stupid goal and this shitty game for now? Like 2 months? He's not even a porn star doing a JOI for me to bother edging for 2 months let alone 10 minutes. I don't think pornhub even has JOI clips that cater to people who want to edge/goon for more than 20 minutes - whoever is waiting on the edge of their seat for DSP to play Sony slop for months is either demented or they don't even exist in the first place.

There are probably pro findom bitches on onlyfans that can't keep a guy edging for as long as DSP is trying to.

He's more likely to make money from blowing bubbles or spinning in his chair or changing his RGB color or naming a block on Minecraft after a member of the SS than he is to try and get anyone who is not only interested in him playing this game but willing to wait months for it and also willing to put up thousands of dollars for him to do so.

Seriously for anyone who even watches his stream, how many of his regulars even care about this shit? And if I had to guess the only people who remotely care are dents who don't even donate or don't positively contribute anywhere near enough for him to his his goals.
 
Can't you basically just buy or collect outfits for the character in Stellar Blade that completely cover her up anyway? What the fuck is even supposed to be the appeal of watching him play this bootleg Nier A-tomato? Does he honestly believe people still fall for his fake machooradult outrage towards anime tiddies? It's not 2019 anymore phil.. even your wife has giant anime tiddies now.

If you're openly bribing your dented audience for a king's ransom (go ahead and use that one it's more appropriate) it doesn't leave you standing on the moral high ground phil it just proves that even all of your imaginary principles are up for auction as well.

If they had any sense they'd just wait it out and let him buckle and lower the goal over and over again until he's waddling into it all by himself.
 
I think he'll lower the battlepass tier required for Stellar Blade if he keeps on missing his arbitrary money goal. If not outright "executive decision" it to the Backrooms, never to be seen or heard of again
None of these goals make sense - if I were to watch a live streamer and want to actually donate it would either be because of charity or something similar or because they're extremely personable (both of these don't apply for DSP). Or because they have some goal that will have an immediate impact/change.

I would sure as fuck not even consider donating to some live streamer I stumbled across for a super-mega-omega nigger tier stretch goal that will only eventuate in 4 months time - I can barely keep track of upcoming scheduled new seasons of TV shows on netflix that have a finite date.

He does the same script/beg shit 10-15 times every single stream. He talks about ways to contribute every hour or so and rehashes the goal shit at the same time.

He gets a laughable small amount of gameplay in each day for someone who does 8 hours of streaming. We are talking about maybe 3 hours on a good day. Just look at Balatro he makes a low level run take almost an hour.

He can't even get DSP tries it funded for every 10 goals at this point. He isn't gonna lower the Stellar Blade goal again cause frankly he knows he is gonna quit that shit super fast cause boobies and he wants to delay it as long as possible. It's a pretty good game and he would've actually enjoyed it and got viewers if he played it at launch but he has basically given up on gameplay being the focus.

I'd have to calculate it but the amount of time he has been late + OT/stall is insane the last 2 weeks like almost an hour of each every day at a minimum. I do think he is panicking a bit with the clear decline of everything so I wonder what sort of hail mary he will attempt.

People will literally just find other shit to watch. His regular dent chat (like derish) are long gone.

I don't proactively follow DSP anymore because there's stuff like Fishtank and also the case of an Italian plumber gunning down a CEO in NYC. People are spoiled for choice when it comes to high production value drama (like TV shows on Netflix) and they're also super spoiled for choice when it comes to "organic-style" internet drama and autism.

This shit is so boring and uneventful. The only entertaining thing I saw recently was that one nigga who is making like episodic shows about DSP (linked recently in the thread) - that shit is great and 100 times more interesting than DSP could ever be.
