Also characters, as well as stories, help us understand people, life, and situations better -- through ignoring the confines of reality the author can bend and twist the universe to achieve emotions, empathy, and factual ability (in universe) that cannot really be achieved in nonfiction, as the author of fiction is basically god of their universe, unlike the author of non fiction. At least till someone reads it and can start making their own copy of it with their own theories and beliefs.
It's pretty limiting to view fiction as nothing but wish fulfillment and filling some kind of void -- though it can be that as well as a mix of that and other motivations.

Are we really going to get into a Sam Harris type of argument of "does free will exist?" over Phil? Even if he is a victim of circunstance and his biology he is still an narcissistic,compulsive liar,manchild that deserves to be mocked.

wheel torque pimp.

one can feel bad for him, and acknowledge the failures of others that have contributed to his current state, but also take the necessary and realistic stance that he is a piece of shit.

View attachment 915635View attachment 915633 He really doesn't understand the aspect of role-playing in a game. Like oh, I'd say or do this as the character even though I'd never do that in real life. Not only that but his job, and what he bills himself as is a guy that performs play throughs and reviews live, yet won't exhaust avenues of content selectively.

I'm actually near the end of Judgement now, so I can share more updates on the totally RL accurate dating missions you do in the game.

The first person you date is an idol who has to hide the romance from her producers because in idol culture dating is a big no no, since your fans have to view you as innocent/be able to openly lust after you. Said girl already has an obsessed stalker person who takes pictures of you two together and attempts to blackmail her. You beat him up, he sees the error of his way, she convinces her manager she's only able to write songs because of your relationship, you two confess feelings for each other, relationship complete. This one and the next one are admittedly kinda lackluster, but still worth doing for the XP if nothing else, and the quality isn't exactly worse than some of the other sidequests in the game.

Second person you date begins like most RL relationships that I'm sure Phil has experienced. Your future GF is kidnapped and you have to detective the right van to save her, then beat up the person who kidnapped her. Then to get closer to her, you work with one of her friends to set up a series of detective jobs which use the normal detective minigame stuff. I feel like you beat someone up at the end too but can't remember who.

Third person is actually part of a way bigger quest chain where there's a trio (then later a fourth) of perverts harassing people, including said future gf. That pic of the naked dude with his junk covered by a leaf that got posted earlier is from said quest chain. The actual relationship part is the girl is involved in an arranged marriage because her family doesn't think she can take care of herself, but she wants to be an artist. The dude she's supposed to marry is the British equivalent of a weeb. He's over the top English gentleman, speaks in ye olde British, has a tophat and cane and challenges you to multiple minigame/fighting duels, you know, the type of thing that happens all the time in RL relationships, so I can naturally see why Phil would want to skip this. This is probably the most fun of all them because it fully embraces the goofy side of Yakuza.

Last person is a fortune teller who thinks you're haunted by a giant cow calamity. You do a few sidequests for her before dating where you help other haunted people. She ends up working for another Yakuza family to help them in her war. Her powers stop working because of relationship nonsense, so the boss tries to get you two to stop seeing each other. Boss is a big dude named the Ox, hence the giant cow calamity.

Interspersed between all of those is you and said person playing darts/drone racing/hitting up the casino/other minigames you normally do as part of sidequests. So yeah, romance plays very little role in the quests, as shown by the fact you can freely date 4 people without it even being mentioned. All the dating quests just use existing minigame mechanics that are normally used in sidequests. I wouldn't be surprised if they were even just classified as sidequests in the game. Given that the last two ones especially are pretty fun and embrace the goofier side of the game, I can see why people are pushing for Phil to do them, especially since his reasoning for not wanting to do them makes little sense since again, there's not really a romantic focus in any of the quests. They also give pretty solid XP which is necessary for the big late game upgrades.

But anyway, the main TLDR is the games are nothing like an RL romance or even like a dating sim/waifu simulator or whatever else Phil is trying to spin it as.

What a sickly looking dude. Holy shit.

Seeing the deterioration of DSP over the years has been nothing short of... astounding to say the least.

One of the unhealthiest dudes I've ever seen. Vitamin D deficiency; terrible diet; no exercise; limp muscles. His body is literally slowly atrophying.

You know the next begging saga is going to be centered around health care issues right? That's the next upgrade to the tax saga. Or it'll be done in conjunction.

Yuck, he's disgusting.

During today's mid-break, the carcinogenic remix music was suspended abruptly for 13 minutes and viewers basked in golden silence. When Phil returned, he explained that YouTube recently made a change where they pause videos after a set time to ask if you want to continue watching. It makes me laugh that he plays them through YouTube, and does not use a lite audio player. Some bandwidth is given to downloading those tracks every time, with a memory-hog Chrome tab open. Bonus hilarity if it's operating through his alleged dying laptop. I also find it interesting that he says "Obviously, I don't want you sitting in silence". Is the mind-numbing remix tracks used as a pacifying agent to quell critical thinking?

Ugh, dsp and romance in games, by his own logic he must’ve been a virgin before he met kat since he used to do romance shit all the time. By the same logic, he must not have any fun irl cause he’s playing games

 

[niggers]

i like the "people are gonna make fun of him" line

it's like a mom being concerned about her heavily autistic son going to an anime convention

I don't know about you doods, but people like this sadden me; waiting for his next paycheck to arrive, only to let it be sucked into the black hole that is DSP's wallet.

Don't feel bad. I've talked to Sambuca before and laid out very plainly how much money Phil makes. He's not ignorant. Feel bad for people like that czgaming person who came in new via CTR, heard Phil's sob story, and believed him. Also ended up talking to him, and when I laid out how much Phil makes, he rightly stepped back and went "Wait. What the fuck? And he's asking for money like this?" and stopped cheering and tipping.

czgaming stopped. Sambuca didn't.

How often you talk to these guys? Btw, you are doing a good job letting them know.

 

[SleepyNibba]

DSP once again misses a good opportunity in streaming a game, since he's decided to skip Astral chain.

Im about 12 hours in, that game is amazing.

 

[DankSydePhil]

So far the only 2 nominations are his ass beating of getting double KO perfected in Street Fighter and the famous "Click on the ads" video. Both very good choices but we all know the ads video wont make the final cut.

Small cheer war along with a slow tip

 

[Prince Lotor]

I finally found this quote about how Phil had to throw out his blanket after several months of Leanna not living with him. This year he admitted he routinely sweats heavily in his sleep, and at no point for 4+ months did it ever occur to him to wash his sweat soaked blanket, instead he threw it out and bought a new one. This is a dude who sweats heavily in his sleep and never washes his bedding.

Maybe it's for the best..remember right after Leanna left? He let the garden out back die a slow and miserable death. Now it could be that he did this due to it's connection to the girl that wised-up and escaped his clutches, or more realistically, he probably couldn't even turn on a lawn mower.

Forget about yard care. If it's not related to dusting and/or scrubbing something, chores and house work are completely alien to him. I mean this asshat is on the wrong side of 30 (also admitted this in a pre-stream) and he just recently taught himself how laundry works. This can also be confirmed when he told everyone he THREW OUT a blanket he had because it was beginning to smell bad. Never crossed his mind to throw it in the wash.

I think when Phil finally goes back into the work force in a few years the only thing he's gonna be qualified to apply for is an indoor house keeper. Fitting, considering all his experience around maids.

Underlined to highlight


@Noob-Noob Do you remember if there's a video link to Phil saying this? I've been wanting to laugh directly at this ineptitude of his for some time. Your quote is from January 12th, 2018. Maybe it's in your YouTube watch history? Or did you hear it while watching on Twitch? I'd rather not have to comb through months of pre-streams. Did he say this at the same time as the 'I just taught myself how to do laundry' shit?

Maybe I'm getting my lolcows mixed up, but he's starting to type more and more like Chris-chan. Word to the mother if you showed me that person told me it was Chris-chan I would not have doubted it.

I don't believe Phil has autism (if you do, haha, it's wishful thinking). But the red flags are starting to stack up.

 

[Forbidden Math]

I think Phil is on the spectrum, but it's mainly his narcissism that makes him a lolcow.

People should only post links to his pre-streams. A marathon of Phil having to sit through his own pre-streams would be hilarious. Just watch detractor videos to find the clips of him being exceptional to get the pre-stream Date and then link to the video on his channel.
