So did he end the night with that $2 donation? is this 1 of his worst? I think I saw 2 cheerers listed at 250 each. He has got to be panicking atm, I mean that's what? $10 for 3-4 hours "work"?

Keeping it real isn't paying the bills by the looks of it.

...tilt the couch at an awkward angle that distorts what you're seeing and set it at a good body-length away and try to play...

Yeah, this has definitely been mentioned a few times, but I think it's vastly underappreciated as to how much it effects his gameplay. Or would ANYbody's, really. I'm a pretty casual game player, so there's no real incentive for me to set up a room solely conducive for it. So, my family room setup has to do, and my couch is at an angle exactly as his is. If I end up playing for any significant length of time though, I have to pull a chair from the corner and put it in front because, after a while, you can def notice sitting turned at angle is appreciably effecting both your perceptions and your responses. And, besides that, it's fucking uncomfortable as shit after 10-15 minutes!

Whatever tho. He plays 90% of his games on console, so, at that angle. And he hasn't ever thought that sitting in a completely awkward fashion with a bad back for hours MIGHT account for all sorts of the reactions where he's just a hair slow or innacurate that he instead blames on any and everything related to the game or console that he can think of?

I'll never understand that thinking. If he needs glasses and he purposely chooses to not wear them then he's just an idiot. Who'd choose to let their eyesight deteriorate just in case some dicks on the internet meme his ass. He's already a joke, it can't get much worse for him.

But whatever. It's his eyesight, not mine.

I think Rambo mentioned he's so egocentric he chooses not to wear glasses the few times he leaves the house to drive. Which is especially douchey since its one of the few shitty things he does that directly affects the public outside of those who choose to interact with him.

Isn't that against the law? In the UK if you drive you have to list whether you need glasses and if you're caught without you're fined and penalty points go on your license.

Granted it does depend on how bad your eyesight is, but if him missing the most blatant things on a screen a few feet in front of him are anything to by, his eyesight might legit be quite bad.
 
I think DSP's Phanboys spying on 'detractors' is an interesting insight into their psychological make-up. And, being an autistic dickhead, I checked out who some of DSP's longer subs/bigger donators follow on Twitch and if 'detractors' are included in those follows.

I only mean to illustrate this happens alot. Mr. Swaggins has been in Tevon's chat, but doesn't follow him. It's not the 'final word' on it. Also, I'm including Kat's channel ChaosRealm01 since it was discovered on a 'detractor site'. These are only the accounts I checked that follow 'detractors', not every account I checked.

well in the world of dsp the law is a funny thing that pops into existence everytime he wants to sanction anything he doesn't like as 'illegal' and pops out of existence when it comes to the requirement to do things like pay taxes on a business.
 
Can't wait to see him play Burnout Paradise - for all the wrong reasons. It's one of the easiest racing games available with very few difficulty spikes, however the social element might be interesting if someone who doesn't like Phil keeps crashing into him for takedowns. Sadly the game hasn't the mugshot feature anymore (or Phil doesn't use it if it's available) so players who perform a takedown on him won't get a photo of his stupid face as a trophy.

Not sure if he turns off the music for "business reasons", since Paradis City from Guns'n'Roses is the title song of the game - however he could turn on the classics channel playing royalty-free classic music.

I can see that despite being a racing game Phil could get kahntent out of it for more than two or three sessions. At least he could get into the movie cars (the game has a version of each the DeLorean, KITT, Ecto-1 and General Lee) for some pop culture references. However I expect him to make weird "oooooooooooooh" noises every time he gets a slo-mo takedown, the same exceptional sounds he did with Sniper 3 Elite's kill cam slow-motion.

This time there shouldn't be an excuse if Phil claims the game's too hard. It is easy to access and forgiving, compared to NfS Hot Pursuit, Most Wanted or any shit Ghost Games produced. Guess he will mention that he needs that 4k TV because 60FPS in 2018 now.

The fact that you care more about money than being a true authentic gamer that only cares about 100% raw, unedited game play says a lot about you
 
Even Evo regulars hate his snake like persona, i feel this is more why he dropped the scene, he was shook.
Nah I think he initially dropped it because other stuff got in the way for a while. When he finally decided he wanted to go back to it no one would drive him to tournaments for free and carry his luggage for him, so he gave up.
lol Yeah the tv is 6 feet from your face but items in the game are scaled for distance.
The vision tester at the DMV that's 3 inches from his face is visible, but the stuff on it is scaled to simulate distance. Since he knows he fails those tests without corrective lenses he's obviously familiar with the concept and should know it applies to his TV too. I wonder if he's stupid and thinks he can see stuff on the TV fine...

I popped in and out on the streams last night and he started his 1st stream on like 200 and floated at around 300 barely hit 400 and when he did it went back to 300 quick. Donations were dead he kept getting troll tips and thats about it. As for second stream had about 400 constantly but again troll tips nothing even note worthy.

His highest cheer this week is 2750 bits and I think 2000 is second its nothing even substantial. I honestly do not know how he is still going because March is not looking great, he is making money like feb and feb was one of his worse months.

Phil's poor eyesight may also explain why he doesn't seem to know how to do moves and such that the game specifically tells you how to do. They pop up on screen but he can't quit read them so he ignores it until he gets to a spot in the game where it becomes "impossible" to continue because he couldn't read the directions.

I noticed too that he doesn't read his cheers verbatim. Maybe he has a hard time reading his chat and just gives an estimate of what was written. I can't be positive about this though, maybe he's just weird and throws in different words.

Phil claims he can't drive on the hiway because he has a bad back and can't sit for that long or he'll spasm. This was brought up in the conversations where he was trying to get a ride to evo. He said he can't drive himself but is perfectly able to sit for that long if someone else is driving him in their car.

Is the real reason he doesn't drive long distances or on the hiway because he can't see where he's going?

He legally cannot drive without wearing glasses (meaning he can get in trouble for this). I assume he took being a hermit over wearing them and being free from his house due to childish fears about looking like a dork (too late by the way).
 
It's a good thing no one ever got the idea to call his local police department and complain on a day when he was known to be driving around.

I think that's fine to say, since Kat's driving him around everywhere now. If someone attempts this right now, it won't hurt him any. I think the risk of someone attempting this in the theoretical future where he's single again is pretty minimal. People around here seem to forget stuff within a few weeks or months.

okay what is up everybody hello hello welcome what is up hello hmm good morning I guess I should say good afternoon for many of you it's gonna be afternoon for me in just a couple of minutes here will come to my full day of streaming I am back after a day away my day off for the week as you know um so FYI first of all today is going to be a full day of streaming I'm going to be doing double streams today two different games should be pretty fun and I'll go through the schedule shortly but today also is the first of eight straight days of streaming which is actually a rarity for me typically you know it's usually around six sometimes a little more sometimes a little less depending on when I think my day off but this week will be eight straight days of streaming and these eight days are going to be jam-packed with new things for you guys new content new games you know a lot of people have been very much looking forward to new stuff and a lot of people have said Phil why aren't you playing new games to which I kind of respond there's another thing there's nothing going on what do you want me to do you know it hasn't been a major new releases since January quite frankly um if you actually look at all the game releases that have come out pretty much totally minor games here and there um not too much in the realm of like a big triple-a you know much in demand game which stinks because typically in the early of the year there is you know sometimes in January there's not much sometimes there is but typically like February March we usually start getting bigger releases um and so far it has been a pretty good I mean let's be realistic here the biggest releases of this year so far were monster hunter world right and then Dragon Ball fighters and everything since then is either been re-release a remake a rehash or a sequel in the long stay running series that wasn't necessarily so original or you know it really just has not been that much going on in the realm of video games recently so I understand if maybe you are a fan of mine but you've been disappointed at the past few weeks there hasn't been you know anything too great in regards to you know new games for me to play people when I am at my hottest when I am at my the height of my popularity it's usually when there's a brand new game or games coming out people are excited to line up to see me cover the new game on release day to give it my own unique commentary style my own unique spin all people love that right not to say that people don't like when I play retro games or the like but it certainly is a much smaller more dedicated group of viewers who watch me basically play no matter what I play versus the people who just like to come by and watch me play the mainstream stuff right so I certainly ah understand I certainly understand why there may be some disappointment and or why there may be some people who feel like things have been stagnating alright so here's the good news let's cover what the schedule of what I'll be covering for the next week so you guys know exactly what to expect alright here we go number one today right now this stream is the conclusion of my bully scholarship edition play through my second playthrough ever of the game the first one was way back when in 2013 um this time around number one the pleaser was fully direct capture which is always nice rather than being half of one good you know capture or recording style and half of another well number two well I'm doing a lot more side content if you guys haven't noticed I've already got a couple achievements that I didn't get during the first playthrough and I'm actively trying to get all the achievements if at all I can in the game there's a few that I don't know if I'll be able to UM you know do a hundred bunny hops or not bunny hop excuse me a hundred realese well on the bike I'm trying you know writing a certain length of writing on the bike I'm trying you know I'm trying to get these but they're gonna be pretty tough in order to get them all today for the conclusion of the game um the bottom line is if I just sit here and I just play the story of the game today I'll probably be done within two hours all right so I'm gonna try to mix it up and try to get some more achievements inside content mixed in today to get a full four plus our game play stream out of the conclusion of bully alright but today of you know officially will be the final session of bully scholarship edition we're moving on after today all right mmm-hmm number two tonight I'll be playing call of duty or two okay um there yell and it should be fun you know every time I play this game it's been a lot of fly I've been doing a way better in the game uh this last couple of weeks that I've been playing it than ever before ever since I changed my weapon up Oh today so anyway yeah I wasn't I changed my weapon up I've been tearing it up now it's whoo term is sometimes connections are terrible or I just get a bad match or the spawns are bad but in general you know be MVP of my team all the time and being top of the leaderboards it's pretty fun it's been way more fun to play a multiplayer game um in regard to Call of Duty than it has in a long time okay so we'll have some more of that fun later tonight tomorrow folks Friday it is time for a new game finally I know I know guys I'm going to be playing the burnout a paradise remaster it's being released for modern consoles I'll be playing on the ps4 in particular I've never played burnout paradise alright this is a game that apparently a lot of people kind of hold up in high regard um so a driving game I know I haven't played I don't know how much of a grind it is I don't know how much fun it is we'll find out I mean let me put it this way I can't imagine this game is worse than Need for Speed payback how could it be you know seriously how could it be it's Burton universe PD payback was so bad so poorly designed I can't imagine that burnout paradise was a worst game I mean that's gotta be that would be a huge huge achievement all right I guess we'll find out so we're starting that tomorrow tomorrow it's not completing all day it's gonna be a fun new day of a game that I never experienced before then on Saturday it'll be burnout paradise and Pope gee yes I will be doing a pop G session Saturday night and essentially that will be the final Club G session for quite some time you're gonna understand why in just a moment as I continue to go through the schedule all right well Sunday nearest almost a need for speed oh my god burnout paradise on Sunday Monday burnout paradise and call of duty and that hopefully after playing it you know all day Friday Saturday Sunday Monday Olive beaten burnout paradise we'll see but you know I'm thinking you know essentially six to seven hours of game play on Friday 4:00 on Saturday for on Sunday 4:00 on Monday right 20 hours I'm thinking I love beating the game um and then Tuesday which would be Tuesday xx we've got the release of sea of thieves which I will be playing on the Xbox one I will be doing co-op with viewers I've already gotten about a dozen viewers who are interested in lining up to play co-op with me on launch week if you were interested in playing sea of Thieves co-op with me all right what you need to do you need to go to the king of heat comm forums and you need to post up there is a thread there in the gaming section for co-op with DSP in a sea of thieves people have already posted up I'm excited to get people in there okay hmm that should be a lot of fun oh so that's starting Tuesday and then Tuesday night I'm gonna be starting up the South Park the fractured buttholes first major story expansion is about Casa Bonita so I'm gonna pair off those games you know see if thieves during the day South Park at night should be a fun week of you know double new contact and then that Friday Friday the 23rd of March is my next day off so that's why I say eight straight days of streaming you know you've got to go Cruiser to bully today burnout paradise for four straight days and then sea of seas and we've got in South Park so that's lot of new stuff okay coming out in the next stop you know week so I'm excited I hope you guys are excited too um and then when I come back from my day off on the 24th of March which is a Saturday I'll be starting up ninokuni too so we've got a lot of new content a lot of new enough fun stuff and then of course there's more stuff at the end of the month too with far cry 5 and the final episode of Batman so here we go new stuff new stuff new stuff new stuff for you guys back to back hopefully this will reinvigorate many of you who maybe have been away for a while and had not watching the streams because you just don't care about there's more old-school playthroughs and downtime stuff alright all righty then okay folks um let's see I'm trying to think do we have anything new that I want to address anything to bring up now in particular not really yesterday was a good day off for me I got a lot done but it was a very busy day we're not what I'm finding alright what I'm finding is that in particularly the days off that I get to spend with cat my girlfriend we all have a lot of fun and we usually get a lot done alright but because it's the one day off a week that we get together all day we pretty much try to put as much we try to wrap as much fun stuff into the day as possible and then we end up being so tired by the time we get home like yesterday we went to two completely different regions we were we were over here doing one thing looking for one thing for that for stuff around the house and then we wanted to go to a different place so we drove out there and we basically spent a lot of time on the road but also you know heating up different places looking around for stuff and then we had a nice dinner together at a place we've never been to before which was nice I never been there she had never been there and we went there and really enjoyed it and then on the way home we went grocery shopping we get home now we got to bring all these bags of groceries and some into the house we unload all the bags next thing you know we're like we're snoozing man like we're ready to sleep and it's only like 10:00 p.m. and we're like we're out we're like god we're so tired um that's kind of what happens is you know when you when you only get one day off a week you try to jam absolutely jam into one day as much as you possibly can all right now here's the thing I really I'm happy just to have the one day off if you guys aren't aware last year for most of the year from like you know May excuse me from May through shit da entirety the air until it wasn't until February really oh this year did I even had time oh I was streaming every single freaking day for you guys and you know was that good was that positive was did that help me to build my streaming presence here on Twitch of course it was great but at the same time you know it burns me out man it burns me how it tires me out my throat in particular you know never really healed mmm because every day I was here at least four hours it's not you know eight hours talking talking talking streaming talking um I think eventually I am gonna have to take a string of days off uh you know for my own health where it'll be me away from streaming and maybe it'll be during more of a down time thing where there's not a lot of games or whatever going on that can maybe recuperate or whatever you know that would certainly be nice but for now this is not the time nor the place as you guys know um because with all the new releases now coming out and now things I hopefully you're gonna pick up so you knows I feel you know your throat doesn't sound great today or they say Phil you sound tired today I'm listening I mean it's true but you know I make do I make do with what I got the best I can I try to stay positive and you know kind of keep pushing forward I enjoy these streams very much as you guys know you know it's very different from when I used to oh man I gotta go to work and play games today I got to put out these videos for YouTube and blah blah it's words it's different now I do love the more interactivity that we guys how are you guys okay and I have a lot of fun it's very different um for me it's more just a physical thing at this point where my physical body it's worn out after a while you know what I mean um so it is what it is indeed um all right let us folks very quickly go through some plugs all right let's go through some plugs and then we will uh do some shout outs for people who have cheered something sent on the stream and/or when I wasn't here yesterday there were some people who need to get receive credit for that as well their contributions when I was not here um and then we will all get started with the conclusion of bully okay sounds good sounds good my friends I hope so my friggin neck is very stiff and painful today I probably slept on in a bad a bad position or something it blues all right so ladies and gentlemen thank you guys very much for your support for being so great to me over the years and in particular you know as I've said these past few months since I really became uh you know a focus on twitch and you know we needed your help you guys really kind of stepped up and helped me out all right I'm a very appreciative of that I love doing what I do for a living and thank you for your viewership now if you would like to go above and beyond just being a standard stream viewer or a video watcher my videos on YouTube maybe you'd like to it may go the extra mile what can you do well there are many things you can do to contribute and I will explain those to you right now okay the very first thing you could do is to check out my patreon check it out over at patreon.com forward slash darkside fill your monthly pledges to my patreon campaign which I run every month um allow you to directly support my efforts to keep doing this you know to afford the cost of operating a business that highly reliant on expensive internet and I'll tone of electricity and a constantly buying new games in fact just this next week I'm gonna be buying bernal paradise tonight I'm gonna be getting the Microsoft game pass to play sea of thieves I'm gonna be buying the South Park expansion then I'm gonna be buying Far Cry you know there's a lot going on right now we're have to drop a lot of money and it happens all the time you know things that you don't expect the new control or a new monitor I just had to get a new external hard drive to store my videos on you know it pops up all the time okay so that being say um thank you because patrons support you know aids me and being able to be flexible like that and be able to afford that stuff but in particular the reason patreon support is very important because you get something back for it you know because you contribute I grant you special perks which give you cool privileges and things that you get back including texture verbal thank using my youtube videos being able to nominate and vote on games for event situations you have special events and celebration getting your Q&A questions or any of your questions answered on my Q&A show ask the king or even getting a private Q&A video made for yourself which a lot of people who love to the point where they got that perk twice because they liked it so much the first time they wanted another one okay so all that being said really also perks stuff that you get back for your contributions saying it everyone who is a current patreon patron excuse me and if you're not I hope you'll give it a look over at patreon.com forward slash darkside Phil in particular right now your pledges are very helpful because of the situation I have with my taxes I'm going to explain that later on on the pre stream but anything you guys do to help me is much appreciated with your pledges on patreon okay sound good that's number one number two teespring so I got my tea spray shop over at teespring com forward slash stores forward slash TSP gaming t-shirts sweatshirts hoodies mugs and stickers all kinds of fun merch apparel great quality stuff I don't use the lowest grade garbage t-shirts that a lot of people for ever reason use when they do their own teespring campaigns I use the better quality shirts so I get a lower profit but they're much better quality stuff and I can personally attest to the quality because I own five of the shirts myself plus a mod so I know all about the quality of the stuff that you can get on teespring you know a new line of product launched we've got logos that are throwback spin-offs of things like Red Dead Redemption logo or the Sonic the Hedgehog logo plus we got a cool zombie hunter design all kinds of fun stuff give it a look anything that you buy from mighty spring shop okay directly Oh gives me a pretty sizable Commission it helps me out and I am appreciative of any of you who do buy something off the shop so thank you to anyone who has if you are considering doing so in the future thank you as well another nice way that you can definitely help me out okay all right last but not least folks if you are here live on the stream and you're enjoying yourself you're having fun the cruise you tabouli is gray and you want to get a shout out during the stream you can either cheer with bits subscribe to the channel or tip me and if you do any of those things I'll give you a verbal shoutout during the stream however understand is totally at my discretion and what I mean by that is if you're saying something that has completely nothing to do with the stream completely unrelated just to jump in on a meme or something stupid you're saying something insulting if you're saying something defamatory um if you're just saying a ginormous paragraph of 14 sentences most of those things I'm not gonna read on stream I would ask that if you are going to try to get a shout out please be concise in your messages please be pertinent you know hopefully something to do with you know myself or the game I'm playing or you know what I mean something around what's going on rather than something completely off topic that would derail the whole content of the gameplay stream okay um in general most people would share something to get it right and it ends up being a pretty fun interactive stream whatever I do game play so thank you to everyone who does you know understand and thank you very much he's a very subjective process if I just read everything that was thrown my way the streams would be a mess okay now if your cheer 50 bits or more if you subscribe to the channel and click the share button or if you tip me $5 or more you'll actually get an on screen thank you pop-up notification so it's a visual recognition in congruence with the verbal recognition and it's all very much appreciated shout out to pop ciccolo who has made our current our current slew of animations for you know all of those thank you is very nice of him to do that okay alright so all that being said everyone I got two things to hit upon first of all we are pushing for subscribers I would like to get 500 subs by the end of this one reason being obviously them were one that would be a huge thing for growth for my channel trying to get back to where we were back in January and number two you will be able to do a special celebratory event you will all be doing this together the Patriots choice playthrough will return what does that mean it means that people who are pledged each to my patreon will nominate and vote on video games for me to do a full down time playthrough of um previous games that have won his event in who games such as Super Mario Sunshine various Sonic the Hedgehog games spyro the dragon persona and yahooza so that's just to name a few some of the awesome playthroughs and things that have happened as a result of patrons choice I'm fully expecting that it would be another amazing playthrough um you know depending on what's nominating and voting I know it will it always ends up being really good okay so all that being said folks um thank you to those who are current somes I know that what's gonna happen is once I start playing new games we're getting natural influx of more viewers who normally don't come around to these streams for the downtime stuff mm-hmm and hopefully you know we'll see a natural growth and/or progression in regards to the subs then blah for you what do you get I mean you're gonna get access to all the really fun emotes that everyone uses in the stream chat all the time okay and uh oh my god my shoulders really killing me today ice this sucks oh I definitely slept on it wrong because I got this one one spot with nerve pain you know pinching nerve pain where I must of like you know kink there pinched the nerve you know in a certain situation sucks anyway um yeah please consider subbing thanks to everyone who has subscribed I do appreciate it alright and let's see what happens all right let's see what happens now the other thing folks and this is very important so please listen up especially if you are looking to you know be supportive and you're wondering gee we know what's the deal with Phil right now it is currently the 15th of March if you guys are not aware one a month from today alright April 15 no exaggeration there's going to be a large amount of money that I'm going to owe for taxes um it's going to be three pieces number one two and a half years of back taxes that I owe that I didn't pay cuz I didn't know I ever owed them because my previous tax attorney completely screwed overand didn't do his job despite the fact I paid him thousands of dollars to do the right job over the years he sucked hmm therefore I now owe thousands of dollars of back taxes all right it sucks I you know I'm gonna have to start paying it back in April number two I've got whatever the remainder but my federal tax payment is going to be for the year of 2017 the thing is if I didn't have to pay those state taxes I wouldn't owe any additional I would have paid it all and been okay but because I had a spike in income at the end of the year because you guys helped me out to pay a big lump sum of taxes for the state that was due in January my overall income went up for the year which then made this new giant lump sum that's due in April that sucks all right now the good news is hmm I have money saved up some of it in excess from December when people were very very supportive of me and some of it that I made over the the months of December and January on Twitch where it was the best twitch months I ever had no lie they were incredibly good and so I have a little bit of extra money saved up for this so it's not so bad but the problem really is not only am I gonna owe the back taxes for the state and then the back taxes here for the remainder of 2017 federal then the federal government expects me immediately to come up with more money to pay my first estimated tax payment for 2018 now what this is is based off of my income last year whatever the new tax payment is for this year I don't know what it's gonna be I have no idea because it's based off of a new tax code that was just passed in January and my new tax attorney slash accountant is working on this right now to tell me exactly what do I owe so it sucks cuz I wish I could tell you guys right now well looks like I owe this and I have this so I'm really you know this much in the in the hole and I could really use your help I can't do that until they finish and they are working on it I did send them they asked me for additional info over the weekend I sent it to them on Monday I'm expecting that within the next week or two they'll be finishing that up and letting me know the problem is time is running out all right time is really running out we've only got a month left for me to raise as much I can to help out with this tax situation alright now that being said the best way that you could help me right now is either pledging to my patreon as I've already mentioned that's tremendously helpful thank you very much buying something from my teespring which I've already mentioned you know thank you again anyone who buys anything for my teespring or tipping me you could tip me two ways either looking below my stream at the grid of information here on my twitch page there's a section that says tips and if you click on it you'll bring it to your tips the tips page where you can either do that an anonymous tip or you can leave one with a message or if you're on mobile maybe you can't see all that information if you just type exclamation point tip into the stream chat there will be a you know link that that posts in the stream chat that you if you click on that you can go to my tips page as well alright so those three methods patreon teespring or tipping those funds will be cleared immediately meaning I could use them right away and put them towards the taxes in one month in an April all right I am appreciative of all your guy's contributions no matter what you do but in particular if you want to help me out of this rut that I'm in with these tax bullshit this is how you can do it okay so I strongly encourage you to use these three methods if you want to support in the next month now if I don't get if I don't get out of the situation it's just sadly gonna turn into something really negative which I don't want to really talk about and I hope it doesn't come to that but you know just to to get to you know to the skinny of it what would happen well if I can't pay all my taxes in April that means now I got more back taxes that I uh which that means more fees and more interest accruing and it just becomes a rolling problem that's not gonna get any better because every two to three months I owe another estimated federal tax payment until the end of the year when finally in December is the final one but then of course in January I'm then gonna owe whatever I owe from my state taxes so see what I mean it's keeps going if I if I end up behind on taxes now all its gonna do is create a worse and worse snowballing situation which is why I'm trying to not be in this situation you know that's why I'm bringing it up all right worst case scenario I get so behind on taxes there's and I can't pay them there's nothing I could do you know where's the money gonna come from I'm gonna have to sell my house and move which I don't want to do I just don't I don't want to do I've worked ten years to get to where I am and even though there's been ups and downs or whatever as of last year I was fine I was making enough money via you know the streaming and everything to pay all my bills I was in a good position and then all of a sudden this rearing tax issue that I didn't know about these back taxes for the state came out of nowhere because of an irresponsible tax attorney and fucked me I'm sorry guys it would be one thing if like my business was tanking no one was showing up to stream you know what I mean it's the opposite my streams are overall getting more viewers on average than they have all my followers are up everything's positive and good so I don't want to say oh now it's time to throw in the towel and sell my house and give up on everything because of some asshole right it's the opposite I think that I can get through this I really do however it is gonna be you know hand in hand with your help because there's nothing I could do besides putting out entertaining and fun streams for you guys on a daily basis all right so please um consider contributing either via patreon via teespring or tipping me those are the best ways you can help out all right I certainly don't want to have to lose my house by the end of the year sell it and then move to a smaller place or worst case which probably is what would happen I'd have to move back to Connecticut which would be terrible moving back into that small condo with bad internet bad weather not big enough for two people and it would be me and cat living there it would be horrible all right so please not all right all right everyone so that is it let's now get to some shoutouts and then we're gonna get to gameplay here all right so let's see here hold on a second just go all the way down let's see so in the day off that I had there were some people who actually contributed it looks like some people sub some people cheered I'm very appreciative of those who keep me in mind when I'm not live on stream so let's give credit where credit is due folks first of all infinite 55 did a 50 bitch here thank you sir oq subscribe to the channel with twitch prime kitty swipers subscribe to the channel with twitch prime uck 14k subscribed all for the second month in a row so thank you you skate for the resale gunga door to the 25 bit cheer he said ninja is living the dream you can't argue that right now he's probably making a million a month well good for him congratulations holla to bowser chump who subscribed with which prime Thank You Bowser and thank you to infinite who again did a hundred bitch here excuse me then on pre stream we had a few people who contributed we had the rapper named Drake who recited some Drake lyrics thank you for the 25 bitch here we had infinite 5500 a 300 bitch here to become the cheerleader for today's stream very nice shut Ameri also cheered 65 bits and recited some drake lyrics thank you for the cheer then we had finance man - who was a troll and did a 25 role insulting cheer which i will not read then the rapper named Drake did another 25 bitch here with more Drake lyrics riggers one today 35 bitch here and he asks when you'll be keeping the music on in Burnout Paradise it would be a ton more enjoyable that way mmm well folks this is actually a pertinent question and I'll tell you guys why alright and maybe you may be surprised at the answer because you guys don't aren't aware of what actually happens behind the scenes here on Twitch alright so here you go here's what happens when I stream on Twitch I'm able to do whatever I want if I want to leave music on in a game I can leave music on in a game right during the live stream you pretty much get away with whatever you want however if you leave an archive active on Twitch it's not the same alright and also it's not the same if you upload videos to use you alright for example if I stream your on Twitch and I record and then I upload the videos to youtube typically what ends up happening if there's copy written music in a gameplay video it'll get flagged for Content ID on YouTube and one of two things happens alright either either number one the videos ad revenue gets cleaned by a third-party claim it and therefore I make no money on that video whatsoever that's number one or number two the video gets muted that's like the worst if someone can't even hear the audio of a gameplay video I made that's terrible that's happened over the years with a lot of players in particular my Greg does auto play through my classics like my original san andreas Ron my original where does auto three or Vice City runs we're pretty much ruined on YouTube because of a ton of videos getting muted all right mm-hmm in general it just sounds like shit when it's either no muted or sometimes it does this weird thing where it tries to remove this song and it sounds like I'm playing a video game inside of a closet or a tin can okay it's pretty shitty in that regard um I have no control over it that's just YouTube's system so there's really no point in recording and uploading to youtube if I'm gonna include the copyrighted music cuz either I make no money on it or you can't even hear it alright so that's number one number two so people say well Phil if you're gonna do a playthrough that has copyrighted music in it then just or licensed tracks for that matter oh just don't upload it to youtube instead leave the archives here live on Twitch you should just do that instead alright mm-hm because people are under this really weird impression that twitch is somehow immune to all copyright music issues which they very much are not if you guys aren't aware which you probably aren't because I don't do this well for people who leave streams archived as viewable on their pages on Twitch if a stream has copy written or licensed music in it within 24 hours of that stream going live it gets muted okay it does and in particular there was actually a mistake that I made all right I screwed up um I screwed up in regards to this what happened is I did not delete the archive of my bully stream from Tuesday when I when I play bully uh okay when I play bully on Tuesday I accidentally did not delete the archive and so I use this warning was you know setting up today's bullies stream and I looked those like oh crap I left the archive up I got to get rid of that but it didn't even matter cuz guess what the stream archive from Tuesday had been muted anyway it had been muted anyway automatically by twitch it detected that there was you know copy written music in the video is from bullying and it muted now what I've sinned on YouTube is that when I play bully only about two songs in the entire game are flagged for Content ID and therefore only an entire playthrough a bully that I've done this past week maybe four videos got Content ID claim now the game is sixty parts and growing so four parts out of sixty ain't so bad you know what I mean but if I put a whole stream archive up on Twitch and every day the entire stream archive was being muted because it had copyrighted music see what I mean so there's been a lot of suggestions of people saying oh Phil uh you know stop uploading to YouTube entirely right and just upload to twitch and leave your archives up because twitch archives are good wrong they're not they're actually just as bad as YouTube they get muted automatically and so it's actually a good thing that I don't do that cuz right now like I said all of Tuesday's bully gameplay would have been completely muted if I relied on twitch archives rather than uploading videos to youtube so it's a good thing that I diversify the way that I did okay now that being said burnout paradise everyone saying has an outstanding soundtrack you know you'll really enjoy it yeah I can't guys again just like Need for Speed payback just like all these games any licensed music I have to get rid of I can't do it I can't I can't have it so that only people who are here live during the stream get the whole thing and everyone else loses to a muted video I can't do it guys so you know I apologize um but yeah I'm just gonna have to have the soundtrack turned off there's not much I could do about it alright apologies again but you have an issue with it you know don't blame the streamer don't blame the game ergo blame youtube or blame twitch or go blame copyright law for being so stupidly convoluted that these idiots actually think that even though they've already been paid a license fee for me to play the game that somehow they're owed extra money if I broadcast my gameplay of that game which is false it's false because it's an interactive medium but I'm not gonna get into it it's never been hashed out in court I've talked to till I was blue in the face over the years about how video games are very different from say a movie or just playing a song and that these companies and by the way it's not the artists who have the problem I should make this abundantly clear - I doubt there's been a single musician ever who said man I want extra money because my my song was in a video game I already got paid for that but now someone's broadcasting that game on Twitch or someone's playing that game on YouTube I want more money on top of the money that I already made because it's being played during gameplay I don't think there's been a single musician in the history of the world that said that it's all the bigwig fucking middlemen production companies the licensing companies basically the guys that don't fucking do anything the money suckers the leeches those are the guys that have the big issue and want to make the big bucks off of all this shit so it's really annoying and you know it sucks for us as a gaming culture that we have to go through this shit because we really are part of an emerging burgeoning culture it's tough really the past I say 10 years have been when gaming has gone a majorly mainstream and now we have to deal with all the repercussions of now being part of big business and all of that so it is what it is all right but it sucks sadly um I have to mute burnout paradise tomorrow apologies to those who say ah two playthroughs ruined her but there it's funny because they said the same thing about grand theft auto san andreas and then I played CNN Drake's with no music and people were like wow it didn't affect it at all the playthrough was fine and the same thing with Need for Speed payback in fact a lot of people thanked me because the music I need for speed payback was shit so there you go alright shout-out to infinite who did a 50 bit cheer on behalf of Derrick and says Derrick says you love you doing the bulk and skull music during your Chelsea Sims between CM Punk and Tommy and who's your favorite wrestler on the NXT roster at the moment mine is Roderick Strong he did amazing in the cruiserweight championship tournament and sadly he fell short to Cedric Alexander um if you're talking purely entering talent who's the best in NXT in-ring talent wrestling skill wise as an athlete I would actually say Roderick Strong but if you're talking the total package if you're talking a cool character who has charisma flashy moves and also is a good entering performer I would actually say alistair black um although I would also say you know the current NXT champion Andrade seeing almost also has a very very high talent level and is quite flashy the problem is in my opinion his character is an NXT who he's portrayed have been really shitty like they didn't give him good gimmicks ever even his current gimmick now is kind of lame I think that he could have done a lot better if they gave him something better to work with because in ring work is there and I get the feeling he actually could be a good charismatic heel but they never gave him that opportunity so oh yeah there you go I think overall alistair black but if you're talking in ring definitely well I agree with Roderick Strong okay so shout out to critical for days who just cheers that you seem to be angry did something happen tell us we can help your problem on nothing happened no I'm coming back from a day away which is good um you know in reality the only thing I'm really nervous about is this tax situation coming up I'm very much looking forward to the next few weeks I mean six new releases in two weeks and then in April we're gonna have some great new releases to God of War obviously is finally coming out which is nice supposedly either in April or may not really rumored that you may be maybe even happening April the streetfighter anniversary xxx collection is coming out when that comes out I'm gonna be on cloud nine cuz I cannot wait to play she farted too hyper fighting supersu Fighter 2 turbo Street Fighter 3 third strike and Street Fighter Alpha 3 online against people constantly and and you know show people how to play those games and to really you know entertaining videos of me doing gameplay of those games I can't wait I just hope that the game that comes is a worthy collection with good online connectivity and not just some garbage they slap together with duct tape you know Capcom tends to sometimes do hack jobs like that um but yeah there's a lot me six new releases now big new releases in April stuff in May a street fighter collection the next few months are looking great for me you know I'm not angry at all if anything the only thing I got worried about is this stupid behind the scenes bullshit with taxes that's really what's what's weighing heavily on me right now so I'll get f25 bit Cheers if I'm going to try to maintain a long-term relationship like you and Kat are doing to maintain what tips would you have there's a lot you know there's a lot that goes into it certainly this is not the time or place for me to do an in-depth answer to your question because this is not a Q&A show or I'm gonna go you know what I mean I'm not gonna spend a half an hour on it um a lot of compromise but also a lot of understanding it really helps to try to see from the perspective of the other person don't try to be just stingy and animate about doing things one way um you know be open to new experiences and new things you'll be surprised very surprised by how much stuff you may learn to love that maybe you didn't even know existed or you didn't even you know weren't even conscious of you know trying new things and doing new things that maybe we're outside of your comfort zone um a lot of you know possibilities in that um you know I could keep going and going and going um but I'm not like I said this is a better a better question for maybe a Q&A show like ask the King is gonna return in April and maybe that's a great question to ask on ask the king where I could go more to definite for like 15 20 minutes so yeah if you actually want a full answer I encourage you to head to the king of hate comment forums go to ask the king thread post up in the thread for the next episode of ask the king and I will guarantee you if you remind me in your post you say Phil this is Jeff and I would like a more detailed answer you know I'm doing what you have asked um I will answer fully on the next episode of ask the King for you there you go critical for days cheered again and said Phil I want to ask this how can you sleep when problems like taxes slander etc or having you every day and and you're worried that one day everything may be lost oh that doesn't happen keep the positivity well here's the thing critical for days this is the truth sometimes it gets to me it does I'll be real with you sometimes it really does get to me all right um in regards to the fact that for ten years ten years of my life guys I'm only 35 years old so roughly a third of my life has been given to doing what I do playing games on the internet sharing those experiences having fun with you guys putting up with you know the foibles of loading the youtubes on a daily basis and streaming on Twitch putting up with that public presence and all the negativity that comes with it but also you know all the positivity as well um-hmm and you know he's absolutely right here the things that I do could literally go away overnight tomorrow YouTube and twitch could close down they could kick me off they could do whatever they want and I would be forced to now find some kind of crazy way to make a living in a climate here where I haven't worked an office job in eight years and I'm out of you know practice of anything that I was doing I'd probably be starting from the bottom it would not be good a good situation at all folks it wouldn't um so that being said you know it is it's daunting some nights I'll be really you guys some nights I go to sleep and I'm nervous you know some nights it gets to me and I say stupid shit I do stupid things because I'm nervous about the future you know and then I hear people getting all hype about things that I think are kind of silly and or I I'm not interested in and then I get bombarded on social media what do you think about this what do you think about this did you hear about this did you hear about this I don't give a shit you know I got my own thing going on it you know I'm just kind of hyper focused on myself and being able to survive and pay my bills and pay my taxes and having a good life here with my girlfriend who just moved in with me this is the focus for me I don't have time for all this like this nonsense sensory noise around me and that's really what it is there's a whole lot of white noise on the internet these days right all these flash-in-the-pan stuff that happens this is important that's important this news did you hear this special thing that happened did you hear this amazing thing over here or on the flip side did you this negative thing did you hear this happen to this person did you hear this guy say this did you hear this and this it's all white noise to me you know and there's so it's a cacophony of white noise currently you know always constantly spinning around my head um mm and for me I basically need to kind of focus in on what's important and not let all that shit constantly get to me you know what I mean and sometimes it does you know I'm only human and I apologize to anyone who I may come off as sometimes angry or grumpy or you know what I mean like 9 a good mood because sometimes you know I'll be real I just am you know other stuff going on behind the scenes you know that I tell you guys about sometimes but I always mentioning you know maybe the last thing that I like to hear is you know these crazy weird things that just happen these anomalies and it's like well you know Here I am I'm the guy who busted his ass for 10 years to do what he loved I really fought to keep doing things the way that I do them in particular because I feel that is the right way to do them to be a true gamer right to share my honest raw gameplay experiences with you guys never giving in to the YouTube temptations of everything must be highly edited everyone sit in front of a video editor for 10 hours a day to go through an entire playthrough and only do this and use the highly edited thumbnails and do skits and you know work with a team of people who can film and do this and you know I just wanted to be a normal gamer who sat around and played games I had fun with you guys and it's been a very hard very difficult time to maintain what I do and still be able to afford everything over the years to be real with you guys you know and sometimes it gets to me it does especially this tax situation right now is really just it's got its hooks in me let's put it that way um and so you know you get it a night when some crazy stuff happens and did you hear about this I don't care I just really I can't I can't get so into other people shit and get into these big viral things and get into these meme and get into this crazy shit you know um you're right critical for days but you know the good news is somehow at least up to now I found a way every day I reinvigorate myself I jump back on I'm positive I get on stream I have fun with you guys that's what it's all about it's not about having moments of weakness it's about persevering through those moments of weakness and coming back stronger the next day because you learn from them right that's really what I think it's all about it's one thing to have to be to have a weakness or to make a mistake or to be angry or whatever as long as something positive comes out of it then you know what I mean if you're destined to repeat the same mistakes over and over that's not good but if you take those mistakes and learn from them to become motivation for the future that's great thing right so there you go shout out through all Z sly Adam who did a hundred bits here thank you very much Aussie sly I appreciate that all right Hassan yo x4 did a reset of five months and he says don't let negative weight get you down keep thinking positively and things will work out there yeah catastrophe resolved with which prawn for the second month in a row Thank You catastrophe for the two months resub I do appreciate that check in mm-hmm just cheered and said gee Phil maybe you should just sing all the music yourself listen you know what there was a time you know when I first started on YouTube when you know my throat was green who you guys remember I was always laughs high-pitched and I used to sing and I can't do that anymore I'm serious I can't my throat has been so like overworked for the past year and a half mm-hmm that even you know if I take a few days off it feels good for about a day and then after another day of content streaming he's just right back to where it friggin was um I fully believe I will never kind of be back to the way that I was back in the day I would have to take months off to heal and recuperate in order for me to come back at a hundred percent like I used to be um I couldn't even do a rack van stream I can't sing I'm serious I can't I can't hit any high-pitched notes nothing my voice is far too worn out and horse um and I've tried everything I've tried lozenges I've tried gargling with salt water I've tried throat coat tea you know all the things that people clean work and they they work for about 10 minutes and then as soon as I come back to stream and I start talking my throat shot again um it is what it is man it is what it is all right shout out to check in did another cheer and he said we definitely got to get some sets in on third strike and super turbo and maybe alpha 3 yeah listen I am very stoked I'm seriously stoked for this Street Fighter Anniversary Collection you guys have no idea classic Street Fighter all right on a platform people will actually play on and hopefully we'll be good unlike Ultra Street Fighter 2 last year which was classic Street Fighter on a platform where the only people who owned it weren't even good at the game very few cases where people who even understood the fundamentals of the game at a high level and then when you even did get a good match in it was laggy as hell oh by the way they included Akuma and two other God level characters who shouldn't be in ranked games it was just so stupid it was a mess I'm very much looking forward to you know hopefully competitive level online multiplayer in these games um I'm a big fan of the Foo Fighter original Street Fighter franchise the classics you know and I played all these games well at least I've been attempted competitive level although like I said various levels of success she brought her through hyper fighting I like the game but it's pretty broken at high levels so I don't know how much I'll play of that one I'll probably play it but I probably won't play it at Lane super street fighter through turbo in my opinion is still to this day the best competitive fighting game ever made it's got amazing variety in the gameplay it's got amazing balance it's got high-level footsies and you know Kesey combos hard combos interesting strategies like it's really out of great level a lot of people say oh man t hawk sucks dude high levels t hops one of the best characters in the fucking game but you only have your incredibly good see what I mean so unlike a game like modern Street Fighter oh this character is really good he's really easy to play and everyone could dominate with them it's not like that a Super Street Fighter 2 turbo it's like if you're really good as soon as you find it to turbo you could be good with any character but you have to be really good about a beast level certain characters are absolutely horrible unless you've you know figure out the right timing or whatever the traps and the like so super stoked for that obviously the supers your products the servos the game that I was a tournament winner in so very happy to be playing that again of course through Fighter 3 third strike of a huge fan favorite a game that in the mid to late 2000s I was actually getting really good at I was starting to place at tournaments and stuff locally in the Northeast United States um until basically the game died out because three fighter for release and then no one wanted to place two fighter 3 anymore but I loved third strike all right I do mmm-hmm so I'll definitely enjoy playing that again shredder alpha 3 is probably the one game in the collection I'm not that too interested in I never really liked it it was kind of like the the Marvel vs. Capcom 2 of the Street Fighter Alpha series meaning they just threw a hundred characters into the game with sprites from various games and they slammed them together and a lot of them were terrible like a lot of the characters aren't even viable in the game they're just garbage um the difference is Marvel's Capcom - they have so many characters you could still have a viable tournament team with like twenty or thirty of them versus you're better off of three there's like no lie five characters so you can actually play with it at a competitive level and the rest are just hot garbage so that's why I really don't like alpha 3 um mmm but I'll give it a shot anyway I'm sure a ton of people will be attempting to play it anyway so I definitely give that game of shot - so when this comes out man when this collection comes out I'm very excited in playing all three to four games that we'll have online capabilities hopefully showing you guys the ropes of how to play these games because these are the games I grew up with in the 1990s this is like my collection this is I am the the target demographic because I was the person who grew up in the 90s I've been craving that classic style Street Fighter for so long and it's true Fighter 4 and 5 we didn't get it now we're getting a throwback feeling that's really awesome plus an opportunity to pass on my extensive game knowledge to a whole new generation of people I am super pumped super pumped for this collection so yes absolutely check in I will 100% play some fun you know fun matches with you I'm sure it's also gonna be other people other people are gonna want to play you know so we may have a regular group of people who want to get together online and go in the lobbies and beat each other up and it could be a lot of fun so let's see how it goes shout out to CB v akela Freudian who did a 500 bitch here and he says phillium your religion of advice sounds like it really well apply it would apply really well to your extreme okay well I don't even remember what I say hahaha I don't even remember what I say but thank you for this year uh rigors one cheered and said I'm wondering what model opiates for do you have I had a lot of friends with the launch system died recently I always just mind but once a week and I had no issues no I own mmm the launch ps4 okay now I have had issues with it two issues number one USB errors meaning if he was telling me I have to and the USB devices connected even though I don't the only USB device I have connected is my headphones that's it um and I've been told all the way to fix that it's the hard reboot the system guess what my launch ps4 won't hard reboot I've tried it every once I know you got a hold down the power button for this amount of time or whatever I did exactly what I was told my heart might might this much ps4 will not do it so I don't know if it just it's so old alright I don't know it could be I could be the reason but it doesn't hard reboot at all I don't know how to do it so I can't get rid of this is USB error number two sometimes this is a rarity but sometimes it'll have what's a disc eject error where just tries to eject a disc that's inside and the thing is I haven't owned a physical disc and played it on ps4 in a hundred years so it just tries to eject nothing is right here BBB BBB um the way to fix that it's pretty simple either number one you can open up your ps4 and tie in a screw because it's all it is it's a loose screw or you can just completely power down the system and turn it back on after like five minutes and it away from months so I've done that several times in the past two years and I don't have that problem you know as a long-standing problem so that's a good thing sadly there's a third and final really fucking annoying issue that I have had with my launched ps4 the audio okay the stupid audio of the optical audio it's glitchy sometimes it'll work perfectly I have no issues other times all of a sudden my audio will completely die in the middle of a stream and I hear nothing through my headphones now I got to pause the game get up walk over to my ps4 unplug the optical audio cable replug the optical audio cable walk back and then sit down gee did it work no I'll God do it again and this is becoming more and more prevalent it sucks because that means basically I think the optical audio port is dying um now it's not the end of the world if the optical audio port dies I'll just have to plug my headphones into the controller but that means I only get stereo sound which means this no nice Astro a40 headphones that I bought back in the fall because all my other headphones have died literally I won't be using the capabilities of them anymore it'll just be stereo audio I might as well just use el cheapo headphones um which obviously I don't want to do so hopefully mmm the optical audio port does not permanently die I guess we'll see what happens alright um show the wrister swaggins who cheery says are you sad that your aren't gonna play a way out well listen a way out is a game that literally has been advertised as 100% co-op from start to finish it's meant to be a couch co-op game that you play with someone you know either sitting next to you or if you have a close buddy over the internet and you want to do full co-op over the internet you could do that I'm not in that situation you know I was tossing it around as a game that maybe I would play with cat we talked about it and she's like you know what I really I'm not interested in the game and quite frankly you know I'm not really ready to jump right into your gameplay anyway I've only been here for a month you know maybe in the future if there's a game that we're both really into and it has a co-op capability and we want to do it then yes but I'm not I don't want to do it I said fine no pressure you know it certainly doesn't make sense for me to pressure someone into doing something that they don't want to do and then it ends up not being entertaining for anyone right so yeah you know I'm not gonna play a way out it may be a great game but sadly being that they designed the game that it's pretty much co-op only all right oh you know what I mean it's a game that I'm not interested is that maybe in the future I would play it right but right now and let's also face it folks the games i'm gonna be playing sea of thieves the South Park expansion ninokuni - far cry 5 Batman already we've got six major games oh I didn't mean to mention print out paradise six weeks again this is the seventh it's like Oh another game on top of all of those right so it's not like oh man there's nothing going on and everyone's gonna be playing a way out and now I'm not playing it because you know I don't have someone to co-op with that's not the case I have a million other things I'll be doing at the same time so it's not that big of a deal in my opinion okay and mr. sprang construed again and said Phil I got a switch do you rigor in the pro controller or using the attachment to switch provides is good enough it all depends um let me put it this way those joy Commons which is what new attachments they're called the joy cons they're not horrible all right they're not they're fully capable of being able to be used for most of the games that are on the switch and as long as you're okay with having a little bit of a motion control spin to playing the system all right they're perfectly fine however you have to understand something you will actually be putting yourself out of this advantage that pro controller actually does control the system better and it doesn't have a motion control gimmick to it so perfect example here you know Super Mario honesty there were a lot of people when they were playing the game they were the joy cons you have to wiggle them to do this or do that if you have a pro controller everything's just a button anyway um so you don't have to worry about that happening you know in that regard having to do a perfectly time with regal Lords thrust or whatever you want to do um however it definitely should be said that the joy Khan is number one we are excuse me another droidcon excuse me the pro controller is way too expensive it's $69.99 dude all right $69.99 $70 for a game controller that's insanity all right that is way too expensive there is nothing built into the controller worth that amount of money now Nintendo might argue and say oh but it's got the ability to scan the fucking amiibos so that's why it's more expensive because we had to include the amiibo scanner inside okay so how about this don't include the fucking amiibo scanner you idiots you already have an amiibo scanner built into the system why do you need one in the fucking pro controller right it's just another excuse for Nintendo to overcharge everybody um mm it's too expensive number two and this is this really the sad part of it um the d-pad on the pro controller 100% has been confirmed to be faulty when it first came out people bought the pro controller to play Ultra Street Fighter 2 and people bought it and found out just by testing it in training mode the d-pad doesn't work you'll be holding right or left and your character will crouch or jump and so they tested it extensively and found out it's miss manufacturer it's actually it's a completely faulty but let's face it the vast majority of video games don't use the d-pad anymore for the control of your character usually it's like an alternate inventory you know what I mean so it's not that big of a deal but if you actually wanted to use the d-pad for controls it's terrible and a lot of people put up a stink initially when the pro controller released about it but let's face it it's cuz Nintendo has this rabid fanboy grouping oh my god Nintendo can do no wrong the intent was the best company ever Nintendo could rehash games a million times and have the same first party games for 25 years and fucking have ports to their systems that are far inferior than every other console and if a console it's a complete flop that didn't listen to the consumers but because they sold little figurine amiibos they're the best company ever you know it's like Nintendo could do no wrong so even though it was factually and scientifically proven that the d-pad of the Nintendo pro controller is faulty and everyone who bought one has a piece-of-crap d-pad Nintendo has no plans to fix it and no one has done anything about it there's been no mass media outcry about it um no one's filed a class-action lawsuit lawsuit about it Nintendo hasn't fixed it and no one seems to care it's like let's just give them the benefit of the doubt because they're a Nintendo if this happened with an Xbox 360 was selling you know an 80 $90 pro controller which they do and the d-pad didn't work at all it was blatantly broken people would be having a fucking stink no Xbox their nuts would be roasted over a fucking open flame they'd be impaled up the bunghole and they'd be it what I mean it's like very unfair in my opinion and that Nintendo get so it gets away with this kind of shame um what they do because of who they are they're rabid fan base alright so that being said if you are going to get a pro controller you have to understand these foibles do not buy the pro controller and use it for a fighting game you will want to slam your head through the wall you're like why did I waste my money after I bought my pro controller the d-pad was so bad I went out and bought a pokken tournament controller for the Wii U that just so happened to also be compatible with the switch and that's the controller I used for Ultra Street Fighter 2 because the d-pad actually worked the d-pad was so bad on the pro I gave up so I had a $70 controller literally sitting around all summer until the fall came out when I finally used it for some of the new releases then alright everybody alright that is it for today's pre stream I've answered all of your shoutouts thank you guys for your cheers and subs on pre stream um again

He cannot disable this on his videos, right?

He can, but then I'd just re upload the entire videos or use the Google speech engine another way (as in he can hide the subtitles from access but they still exist but aren't available. Many people do this for search engine reasons, but if DSP did it I think it'd actually push his listing down even more)

But if he does do it, and he bitches so much about his detractors making videos about him then he's going to look like a fucking idiot because this provides the "context" that he always says is missing.

Indeed Phil has always been reeeeeeeing they are taking what I am saying out of context - he is legit going to love this :p looking forward to how he reacts because lately he has been well a little bit reactionary.
 
But she can't lie to herself forever.

She looks more like someone already planning her escape. It would be funny if she actually really is totally mental (always a possibility as DSP is a loon magnet), and decides her only escape is to run face first into a wall and then claim domestic abuse and Phil goes to jail.

Granted it does depend on how bad your eyesight is, but if him missing the most blatant things on a screen a few feet in front of him are anything to by, his eyesight might legit be quite bad.

He might have passed the vision test enough not to have a restriction on his license. Once, when I moved from one state to another, for years I had had a vision restriction, but let it lapse from not needing it, so I had to do the written test again as well as get a vision test, and in the new state, I didn't have a vision restriction (and still don't). I still always wear glasses when driving, though, because while the standards may be pretty lax, if I can't read road signs, I don't feel at all comfortable driving.

DSP tries it: Fixing his PS4
I don't know if it just it's so old alright I don't know it could be I could be the reason but it doesn't hard reboot at all I don't know how to do it so I can't get rid of this is USB error number two sometimes this is a rarity but sometimes it'll have what's a disc eject error where just tries to eject a disc that's inside and the thing is I haven't owned a physical disc and played it on ps4 in a hundred years so it just tries to eject nothing is right here BBB BBB um the way to fix that it's pretty simple either number one you can open up your ps4 and tie in a screw because it's all it is it's a loose screw or you can just completely power down the system and turn it back on after like five minutes and it away from months so I've done that several times in the past two years and I don't have that problem you know as a long-standing problem so that's a good thing sadly there's a third and final really fucking annoying issue that I have had with my launched ps4 the audio okay the stupid audio of the optical audio it's glitchy sometimes it'll work perfectly I have no issues other times all of a sudden my audio will completely die in the middle of a stream and I hear nothing through my headphones now I got to pause the game get up walk over to my ps4 unplug the optical audio cable replug the optical audio cable walk back and then sit down gee did it work no I'll God do it again and this is becoming more and more prevalent it sucks because that means basically I think the optical audio port is dying um now it's not the end of the world if the optical audio port dies I'll just have to plug my headphones into the controller but that means I only get stereo sound which means this no nice Astro a40 headphones that I bought back in the fall because all my other headphones have died literally I won't be using the capabilities of them anymore it'll just be stereo audio I might as well just use el cheapo headphones um which obviously I don't want to do so hopefully mmm the optical audio port does not permanently die I guess we'll see what happens alright um

He got his PS4 at launch, so its 4 years old, has he even tried to factory reset it or anything?
 
Is the real reason he doesn't drive long distances or on the hiway because he can't see where he's going?

It's possible that he never liked driving on the highway to begin with, then used the back and glasses issues as a way to excuse it to other people. We already know the back issue is totally overblown from all the videos of him dancing (in addition to the "clean Seattle air" that miraculously prevented him from getting surgery he for years claimed was necessary) and he acts like the Khmer Rouge will come to get him if he actually wears his glasses (they actually make him look better imo). He'd rather inconvenience himself for the rest of his life than just admit he's insecure.
