I played about 3 hours of South of Midnight today, and I get why DSP dropped it.

  1. The game’s got themes he was never going to vibe with. It’s set in the South, features a female lead on a journey of self-discovery, and carries a lot of heart and cultural weight. With the kind of audience he pulls—Kino Dents, the usual crowd—it was never going to land.
  2. It’s an action-platformer with modern design features—like a guidance system, similar to Horizon, where pressing a button reveals a path to follow. I actually like that. It streamlines the experience, especially if you're someone like me who wants to move through the game at a steady pace. But for DSP? He never uses features like that effectively, and it shows.
  3. There’s a scene early on with rotting pigs in a barn. It’s grim, raw, and a little too on-the-nose. Let’s be honest—he probably saw that and projected.
Bottom line? These kinds of thoughtful, stylized games just aren’t for him. But of course, he’ll keep playing whatever Dotnod puts out, even if he doesn’t understand it, because it’s “new” and might bring a few clicks.
nah its just a pile of shit

Actually, I had a thought in his doordash begging. I would not be surprised if he wasn't overdrawn some days. If not most days. There was some things he said that made me think he literally couldn't afford the food until he got money.
Again, DSP really wants you to think he doesn't doordash 3-4 times a week. All that begging like a crackhead just to eat fast food pizza. 2 pizzas and bread. Either he's a fat ass and eats all of it or it immediately goes into the trash bin.

I imagine its going to be a lot worse considering you can now finance your orders. Or in other words you can put your slop from Taco Bell on a payment plan. Thats... such a horrifying thought to have.
 
Under $50 to feed two people is a deal to this guy, lmao.
I still love how "lunchmeat sandwiches" is some sort of horrific poverty line level he's beneath crossing. Do a Google images search for lunchmeat sandwiches and they look fucking great, much better than pizza slop any day of the week (and healthier too)
 
I like the new lie he's going with, that him and the horse go for a walk during his first "break" of the day. I think someone said he was gone for under ten minutes. So the two laziest slobs that ever faked a marriage are squeezing in excersize everyday now!

He says it right after coming back from his first break yesterday if anyone wants to hear his retarded new lie.
She is not walking that v-shaped ass in a moomoo in that fenced off neighborhood.

Too many people could he watching, laughing and pondering how she got so big.

If anything, the constant amazon delivery trucks outside his house and doordashers would drive me more insane.

Delivery, delivery, delivery, delivery
 
So essentially this fat motherfucker says that he and his wife ate a meal that was meant for more than two people.

He also says that they had an insane amount of leftovers. If you're blaming him for ordering a meal that was too large for two people, fair enough, but they didn't eat the entire thing in one sitting.
 
The $50 and one meal take is fucking insane. You can legit go to Aldi and spend $20 and get meals for the week. I am a massive fan of depression cooking as it is really interesting because it is about utilizing flavour and bulk with very minimal ingredients. It teaches you, though, about how hard people have or had it, but it saves you a ton of money. It also teaches you about flavour profiles, which a lot of people do not understand at all.

Phil gets DoorDash every day, and I have stood by this belief for years. His statement confirms it because only a warped person would think that is reasonable. Fuck go to Target and grab a Red Baron pizza, they are $7 and pretty good. If you want a local pizza chain, we have 2 pizzas for $25.

He once said its the same price to fucking eat out as it is to make food at home. And that might go down as the singularly most retarded thing that has ever dribbled out of his mouth. Like especially for all the frozen food he eats.

Wrong.

It's a glorified walking simulator, That's DSP's preferred genre.

Walk forward and interact with yellow paint (cum color paint in this game, though), a mechanic that was literally, unironically, created specifically for DSP.

He wage quit it cause it failed as a begging prop.

Quite a few people on here said he needs to go for a walk and get out of the house like 2-3 weeks ago when the DM's leaked - which coincidentally also included the "revelation" that he reads here.

My nigga, you are arguing with ChatGPT.
should i add the n-word would u like that and f-slurs?
Yes, please get ChatGPT to say nigger and fettuccine.
 
I feel crazy with DSP and people in here saying Yakuza is boring because I love that shit. Half of the appeal of the franchise is how it can go from deadly serious, dry crime/political dialogue in the cutscenes to the ridiculous gameplay.
It’s one of my favorite series as well, it’s just that Phil’s true talent lies in making anything remotely entertaining to look and sound as enjoyable as watching paint dry.

There is a difference between people thinking a game is boring and thinking it is boring to watch a streamer play (and Phil could make literally any game boring to watch). I'm sure a bunch of games I love are boring as fuck to watch someone play but I still log hundreds of hours on them.
 
He also says that they had an insane amount of leftovers. If you're blaming him for ordering a meal that was too large for two people, fair enough, but they didn't eat the entire thing in one sitting.
Sure, THEY didn't because Phil had to go back and stream. You know Khet stayed at that kitchen table until the job was finished.
