It's so damn unproductive for him. He's juggling almost 6 games. Why should a viewer get invested in his playthroughs if he puts them on hold every 1-2 days.
He likes to say he's a variety streamer now, but that's not really how you do it.
edit: Because if you are putting games on hold because another new release happens, it just snowballs into what he's got himself into now with his 6 game juggling scheme. By the time he has finished a new release, others have done it weeks before. Why should anyone subject themselves wanting to see a new release all the way through with his method of practically waiting around
On Dave you can actually see this really interesting scientific discovery (one of my favorites): We might think we argue first and then do the act based on that. But in fact we already decided subconsciously and then make up "excuses" why our action was a good idea, and normally you can come up with a good explanation/excuse. To be fair, let's say this goes for 99% of everything we do, as you can clearly plan ahead in time, but for the daily decisions this totally goes.
So why is he officially a "variety" streamer? Not because he decided this beforehand, not because it's a good idea, not because there is a niche and for sure not to have some - well - variety. It's because this is how LazyPuppetDave just plays, he has actually no plan. Look, a new game. I want to have that new game. Now we play that new game (fuck the other games, they are boring now).
Why is he a RAW videogame streamer? Not because it's "real", not because he can be like the common gamer, not because this makes him unique, not because people want him as a streamer, not because this is his style and not because it's the modern way. It's because he is fuckin lazy, don't want to edit anything and it's easy bucks.
Why does he attack literally everyone? He had this project, the "Hateful Truth" which says everything, right?
Because he is an honest guy? Because he stands strong for free speech? Because he knows the facts and wants to teach everyone a valuable lesson? Because he wants to protect f.e. gamers from injustice of the industry? NO! Because he's a complete ignorant asshole and his ego can't allow any reaction which even resembles an opposite opinion or reaction and he pussies out as soon as the situation "gets real", with the complete package of more excuses (The match was bad, that's why I left. Where is the mute button?). It's all about him and nobody else!
Why does he not want to do coops with other streamers? To protect them from the trolls? No, because he's afraid of a bigger audience he can't control and they might figure out his bullshit, and his money grabbing tactics might not work on them. Also he loves attention on him, not someone else, the ego won't allow this.
Dave is a really interesting case. Imagine you strip the scientific discovery naked, there you go, Dave is the most purest example. The "excuses" many people make up are quite sound, even some stupid ones. They make somehow sense if you look at it from a specific angle. But I can't figure out how his subconsciousness decided why it's a great idea what he's doing on a daily basis and where it pulls out these massively idiotic and illogical explanation/excuses, because a normal critical thinking human being would hear and see the shit he's doing just one time and immediately think: Woooow, and I thought I am garbage, but now I'm feeling really good in comparison, I've never seen something this twisted and illogical in my entire life. I can only explain this with complete isolation from the rest of the world and a lot of mistakes in parenting; or he's literally mentally ill since birth.
Cheers. I got my beer.
And some edits for better english I suppose, here you go.
