1st of all, for someone who plays games as much as he does, he is
shockingly bad. This is mainly due to him being unskilled when it comes to reflex-based games like fighting games (Where he claims to be a former pro lol), but also when he plays games that have a more deliberate pace, like Resident Evil, he frequently fails in ways you'd never imagine anyone failing. I would recommend you to watch a TIHYDP video so you can understand, but most of them are far too long & life is too short. But my personal favorite is the Resident Evil videos by Josh Ryuk, because they're not A-Logging (The video maker praises him when he shows skill or good judgement, but even then you can see him pulling his hair out in frustration) Code Veronica TIHYDP (Parts
1 2 3 4), he frequently complains about the games he plays whenever he fails, constantly blaming his fails on the game itself calling it bugged, this is part of what got his fans to hate him, and you know gamers can be quite vindictive & :autism:.
2nd, he is possibly the most low-effort streamer ever, he was one of the earlier LetsPlayers on Youtube, and could've been PDP level, but his laziness is the main cause he isn't, he used to record his gameplay with a camera instead of a capture card, and still uploads his gameplay in 10 minute intervals, spamming his follower with an incredible amount of videos daily. When asked by his fans to change his ways or at least edit out things like backtracking & failed runs at a boss, he would tell them it's too much effort, and would even ban them from the chat. Add to this him being the worst commentator I have ever seen, unentertaining, salty & casually racist at times too. All while proclaiming himself the father of LetsPlays and a genius..etc. This created even more animosity, which lead to the creation of above groups.
3rd and most hilarious for me personally, is his steadfast insistence that he already has a job & a business, sometimes in the same stream he is outright begging for money (2 very contradictory notions, a successful businessman doesn't beg for money from customers). He is now in huge debt due to his exceptional financial decisions, among which:
- Moving to an expensive house at another state for his girlfriend's soap business without selling off his old condo.
- Spending money that he begged for on a staycation at a nearby hotel, where he proceeded to stay in the room and watch movies, essentially doing things he could've done from home.
- Buying a brand new BMW after the move, which he barely uses as he is playing games all day, watching TV all night.
I probably missed something, but this will probably suffice.
