Why does Phil always hype up and try racing games if he's terrible at them and doesn't enjoy them?

The Crew 2 beta didn't even last a full stream before he rage deleted it.

His racing game THYDP's are the best, it's just full of salt and rage. Best is when he tries to corner at 100MPH+ while going full throttle every single time then says the physics of the car are shitty and broken when the car loses traction and spins out.

He also shows his lack of knowledge about cars when everything is "fishtailing"

He probably thinks all racing should be like NASCAR where all they do is go at triple digit speeds in turns. I love the idea that he thinks smashing into corners at max speed and having a massive speed drop is a better risk than slowing down into a handbrake turn, going slower but maintaining a constant speed to avoid crashing, then spending less time accelerating out of the turn to max speed.

Maybe he thinks all racing games are like Fast and Furious stunts?

I don't know what he thinks but it's hilarious watching him bitch and moan while smashing into every turn then going full throttle from 30mph and wondering why the car is slipping around trying to get traction. It's such a shame he rage quits racing games so much these days as they are one of the few games where stream chat can't handhold him and even normal difficulty can't make him drive any better.

Hello everyone, WurstbrotPhil here. And I have the ability to set a course to the 100% most wrong directions.
In this case I forgot where I'd put my sub- and donation alarms. Ups!

This is especially exceptional just because this is the only corner where the positioning makes no sense, all other 3 corners wouldn't even hide anything because the additional borders on both sides would give him more than enough space to set his camera.
However, as dumb as this is I wouldn't post this when he wouldn't make a specific common aesthetic mistake from time to time. And when I tell you, you can't unsee it for all eternity (damn you, streamlayout-designer who told me that years ago!). And now you will suffer just like me.

Why does he look away from the game?
Mirror the cam or set it on the right? Neeh.

Has anyone ever seen him do anything interesting with the facecam besides masturbating?

The cam is just him throwing something into his streams without purpose. He has done almost nothing interesting with it. I can understand putting face cam up for prestreams. That way it's almost like he's just sitting there talking to you, but when he is playing he doesn't look at the camera, his tv is off to the side of the camera and his reactions aren't very visual.

He should have the camera either right where the tv is or in a spot where he doesn't have to turn his head to address it.

He used to say facecam is stupid and pointless. Then he saw other people make money from it (it makes a stream more social to see a human face) so of course he pedaled.

Too bad his face looks like that of a dead walrus, and with even less genuine emotions.

His TV is at the other side of the room at an angle the same as his couch, just shoved in a corner at an angle blocking a closet.

It's almost like that's how the movers dumped all his shit and he couldn't be bothered to move any of it to a better position. At this point it's just him being too lazy to spend a few hours to rearrange his room.

I've seen him nod off / legit sleep during cutscenes. Wait, is watching a gaming streamer sleep 'interesting'? Nvm, I think I misunderstood the question.

And, you know, his dumb ass HAS a green screen he could use, which would get rid of the issue of an obnoxious box blocking things of interest. Would even give his stream a more, dare I say, professional look! Fuck me tho, I've never been too 'street smart', so I don't know where I come off giving business advice to Dave...

I actually think its detrimental for him, because without the face cam he could often feign emotion and enjoyment. When you watch his face cam when he's "raging" or being "entertained" his face is just so still, he looks so bored and most of the time he's emotionless. I'm sure other people have noticed this too, right? There's a compilation somewhere on youtube of DSP laughing with the face cam and if there was no face cam it would sound like DSP's laughing his ass off but due to the face cam you can see his emotionless, uncaring face. He's just staring at the screen with a blank expression and he just opens his mouth and this fake laugh comes out.

Also it adds to the ammo regarding Phil not caring about games, especially the game's story. Whenever a cut scene happens he just goes straight to looking at stream chat, checking for those delicious bits. It just shows he's not into it. It was pretty bad during God of War because he'd talk about how much he's loving the game but with the face cam he looks bored, then a cut scene happens and he goes straight to looking at the chat the entire time, so that was probably off putting the viewers since he didn't seem that excited. At least without the face came you could assume the silence was just him paying attention. If Phil's not invested then the viewer can't be invested.

And finally, it shows him looking at the stream chat for help all the time. So without face cam he'd actually gain more.

Also it presents an endless series of hilarious absolutely stupid looking facial expressions that give his "detractors" endless ammunition.

The best thing about Phil's face is how hilarious it is. It's endlessly meme-able, even when he isn't openly masturbating on a live stream without knowing it.

The face cam definitely does more harm to phil than good, but he’s a professional streamer and professional streamers have face cams dood!

And you know why else i hate him using facecam? Cause you can clearly see when he is not paying attention to the games.

He should have move the laptop and tv to the same time... But he is too fukin lazy.

Wait, he got a stick again? My autism is triggered. What brand and model? Did he dust off an old one? Is it some derpy offbrand stick. Did he do something smart and go for something most rational people use like a Panthera, Rap 4, or an Obsidian? Did he do his usual most expensive is best bit and order a fully tricked out Etokki Omni from South Korea, or buy a Qanba Dragon for like 300 bucks? Also, even if Kat is still there he wouldn’t do a tutorial for 2 reasons. 1. It’s boring and little more than personal preference. 2. The moment he does people will start badgering him for a stick cam when he plays, which would expose him as an extreme masher.

I think he said at one point his favorite sticks are from Hori, but I don't know if he actually bought one. I've seen him with a Mad Katz stick before, and have never seen him with a Quanba/Eight Arc stick. The one he's using now is too big to be off brand. I'd guess it's a Mad Katz. Maybe Mrs. Swagginz will throw him a few bucks and ask for us.

LTG backed out of the fight. Apparently Phil contacted him and said it has to be on his terms and gave him a stupid list of specific demands so LTG said fuck it.

Larry Bundy Jr. Had the exact same experience with Phil.A comment taken from YouTube he posted below.

I tried doing a crossover with Phil once, and he was all for it... But then came the long list of things he wouldn't do, formats he'd play them on and exact times he'd do it, and it then devolved into bitching about the haters, and not letting me run one on my Twitch channel in parallel, as my 30 Twitch viewers a video might impact his views! so I just gave up in the end :(

So LTG is telling the truth on this for sure, let's see how DSP lies about this to cover it up.
