I cant help but feel sorry for him. Even as I know he's in a grave he dug himself.

He actually did review FFXIII-2, but he junked it because he said it was "bad in a way that wasn't funny". Most people still don't know this, of course, because Noah only mentioned this in passing in a random Live Wire years after the fact and then never again.
But the review exists, either in a finished or mostly complete state - he just never published it and never will.

I can forgive gullibility. The media is expertly manipulative and Twitter is something humankind has never before encountered and is arguable still grappling with.
However, what is difficult to forgive is belligerent willful ignorance in the face of facts and opportunities to be corrected.
It's perfectly OK to have an ego, but that ego must be strong enough to withstand the impact of admitting a mistake, otherwise it's just a Hindenberg-sized balloon.

What would he even do with a souls-like? Everything about souls games are incompatible with his mentality.

He beat the first two Dark Souls games and Bloodborne even though the latter took him like two months, most of it spent raging on Twitter. But he beat them. My armchair guess is getting owned in Soulsborne bruises his ego because he always talked so much shit about them so he feels compelled to beat them.

No you see, he's just doing this all as a publicity stunt, all of his depression and mental illness is just something is going to wow us as we see him get magically picked up by a director and his studio as a lead role, and then he will repay everyone for being a lazy dick head
Which is about as possible as the day when pigs fly.

I won't negrate you because I get it, I felt sorry for him once as well. There's a limit to just how far sympathy will go though. Some people really need tough love and to hit rock bottom before they either learn to sink or swim. Spoony is almost 40 and still acts like a 16 year old who thinks he knows better than everyone else, throws tantrums when he doesn't get his way and expects to be waited on hand and foot without contributing anything to ensure his own survival.
He has mental issues, yeah yeah big fucking deal. Lots of people have been clinically diagnosed with bipolar or depression, myself included if I want to slightly powerlevel. It sucks, it really does. There are some days you really feel like nothing will ever get better. Didn't stop me or tons of other people going through the same thing holding down a job and taking care of things that are essential to continue on. Spoony uses it as a crutch to get pity points because he knows he has family or white knights to sponge off of. He has no shame about using people and I find that repugnant. I want to see him crash and burn because if that doesn't snap him out of his woe is me! mentality, then he's a lost cause not worth trying to help.

Potentially Powerlevely or preachy, but fuck it, I'm going to say it.
I've known people far worse off than Spoony and they were able to get themselves out of their messes and seek help when they need it. I've even known drug addicts that fall off the wagon that desperately and actively try to get better. I have more respect for people that try to get better and fuck up, and then pick themselves up and try again than people that do absolutely nothing but make their own situation worse.
What keeps me from feeling sorry for Spoony is the lack of effort in trying to get better. He just rolled over and died and cast his whole life into hell. He also had a solid network (Channel Awesome), a fanbase that gave him 5K a month on Patreon, a house, a far-too-loyal-for-her-own-good girlfriend, a diagnosis for his issues and a path to treat, and just about everything you could need, and he just threw it all away.

This is the last thing Spoony is going to hear and see on his deathbed:
Seriously though, seeing Spoony's friends try to reach out to him is a lot like this scene from the Documentary "The Best Worst Movie: the Making of Troll 2." Two of the film's main actors have decided to head out to a local horror convention to meet with fans. Along the way, they stop by the house of the woman who played the Mother in Troll 2, to see if she wants to go to the convention with them. When they get there they find she's.....gone a little crazy....
The speed with which they nope out of there rivals the speed with which Spoony's friends have deserted him. There's nothing you can do to fix this level of crazy, so why hang around and watch the trainwreck?

Dude, this would be the case in, I don't know, 2016 or 2017, before his Patreon dropped down below 1000. What fans do you expect to save his house now? Those people who had some dignity and weren't on the spectrum have already moved on years ago and his ass kissers don't need any videos to save him, but guess what? They don't do that. Noah is right in one thing - it's too late. For his internet career at least.
Wait, really? I thought he dropped Bloodborne, because he got lost and couldn't find an entrance to the next location.
His sycophants should buy him GRIS. It's about depression, he is gonna get better.
Dude, powerlevel means telling something embarrassing or something that can lead to your doxing to the bunch of strangers on the internet. "Too much information" in simple terms.

He's mentioned a couple of videos he has that need a little editing, mostly vlogs and counter monkeys, but that he never got around to, but people would still watch them even if they're old. He doesn't even need to edit them, just upload the raw footage once a week and people would start coming back. But that's beneath him, in his mind, his videos, even the ones where he just rants at the camera for an hour, need to be at a level he finds acceptable.

Given the state of his hair, I really doubt it's a matter of professionalism and more just that he's a fucking slob who can't be fucked to finish them.

He claimed that he already beaten it once before he played it again and ragequit.
(Specifically the Ghosts Of Yharnam boss broke him because he kept getting lost on the way back to the boss area)
Which just makes me question the circumstances of the first playthrough.
Did he skip the DLC? Probably, I don't even think it was released during that time.
Was he ridiculously overleveled? Probably.
Did he forget everything about it? Absolutely.
Seems like he just played it because it was the "popular game" at the time, as I recall Bloodborne is one of the few modern games that AVGN has actually finished.

I kind of wonder about that one, to be honest. If some guy I worked with ten years ago popped up on my doorstep and offered to drive me off with a stranger I'd likely decline too.
Unless, of course, they tried to set this up with me.

That's already what's going to happen to Spoony in the near future either when:
A) His family has him packed up and moved back to Arizona.
B) The sheriffs come to kick him to the curb.

To be fair it was more like 20 years.... But neither of them were "strangers". The guy on the left was the kid from the movie.
If you haven't seen it, it's a fun watch.
