DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell - General Discussion

[PenskeMaterial]

Show starts in about 10 min. and the chat is full of detractors, lol.

They said they'd get to the e-mails later and shared a excerpts from one of Phil's last messages to them in which he blames his viewers not wanting him to appear on the show for cancelling the whole thing.

It's the viewers' fault, not his. He did nothing wrong.

Also they're going to talk about Nick Fuentes, so you get two cows tonight.

I think prior to blowing up on youtube he was an ok enough guy. Still toxic and arogant when it came to games and online, but in person he was probably more tolerable.
There are plenty of videos off him hanging out with people and seeming to have a good time, which is where the problem comes in.

There is one where he is at some gathering/party at some house with dozens of people, playing games, bbq, chilling in the pool and then you have this chubby fuck going around flashing a camera in everyones faces.
Now how would you feel if you are just having a good time with your mates while some asshole is filming everything and plan to put it up on the web to make money off of it.

I bet plenty of people started getting sick of constantly being recorded by this fuck so they stopped hanging out with him or told him to knock it off, and he of course didn't take this lightly and has contributed to the idea of everyone being jealous off him or betraying him.

Like I said I think Rambo was his first genuine friend. That doesn’t mean I don’t think he didn’t that capacity to interact with other humans for the sake of socializing, I just think dark was always enough of a weirdo to never bridge the gap between acquaintances or hanging out with people in groups to actually being able to have a significant one on one friendship with someone.

We all know exactly the kinda person younger dark was, he was the annoying guy at parties, you knew who he was kinda but don’t actually know him. He always has a story of his own to tell during conversations and everyone knows their bold faced lies, but nobody cares enough to call him out

 

[Toilet Man]

Probably a similar thing to most "content creators" tbh. if my friend suddenly started turning every social situation into an opportunity to make "content" I'd be less likely to wanna hang out with them. That said, many of those people with good personalities probably make it work, and then there's DSP, with his whiny annoying arrogant dogshit personality. He had no chance of retaining friendships, and he tried to keep people on his side for many years by being the guy in the group that splashes cash around.

Well Phil made it to the second island area of Myst and blundered his way to the submarine; stream chat was there giving hints along the way. The worst part though; is the submarine part is literally on rails. You have a forward button, a backwards button, a compass to show which way you're facing (8 directions), and a screen to show if you can move forward the way you're facing... and he's too fucking stupid to figure it out. Spent ~15 minutes spinning in circles or going one direction, to immediately face the way he came and then go back.

He's reading a guide as well as taking stream chat; because there's no way a guy who can't figure out what to do in that setup should've been able to stumble his way there.

I mean this is the guy that couldn't figure out how to match up the color coded elevators in Metroid Prime, and then used a walkthrough to find all the Chozo Artifacts without bothering to check out the hints in the temple. Fruit flies have more patience and deductive skills than him.

 

[Nypical Haterade Comment]

Does anyone have that clip where Phil is playing Apex Legends with a overly exceptional fan and he is visibly uncomfortable the whole time?

 

[Memology 101]

Phil's not taking part in the foreclosure proceedings at this point. You can check this dedicated thread for all your court case needs: https://kiwifarms.net/threads/dec-15-2019-foreclosure-saga.64148/

So, is he safe or nah?

DSP talking about SFV may be one of my favorite things. Was just listening to Memology's new video on it.

"SFV is a guessing game, where you try to read your opponents and guess what they're going to do" "There's not a high skill ceiling"

Yes, SFV is definitely not the cleanest SF game, although this may have changed from what I've heard with Champion Edition and the few matches I have peeped. And yes, there's a fuckton of guessing, or at least, in previous seasons there was, with characters like Karin throwing HPs a plenty fishing for a CC.
There's a reason why we had fucking MenaRD winning CapCup and then not placing in majors lmao.
But there's also a skill ceiling since otherwise, people like Tokido, Fuudo, Momochi or Bonchan wouldn't constantly be placing high on tournaments despite some pool drowning or upsets.

But in true DSP fashion, he uses a word and attaches a completely different meaning to it. In ANY FG you're going to read your opponent and guess the correct solution.
Guessing is what he does when he randomly jumps into a Ken with Ryu's j.MK hoping the guy DP's early. Guessing is what he does by DPing half an ocean away of a Birdie.

Reading? That's what Arslan did to Knee to literally sidewalk the man's hellsweep.

Funfact, black DSP, LTG, had a similar rant years ago. Since humans cannot read humans, there are only guesses. There's no such thing as yomi or anything. There's only bullshit 50/50 that take advantage of human fault.

TL;DR Former pro-fighting game player cannot level up his game in 15years. Still stuck at the Scrub phase.

Just watched the same vid. Amazing.

And it's more like 25 years of Fighting Game experience...
With a fancy arcade pad...
With "the best internet in the country"...

I don't know how or why the FGC attracts the weirdest kinds of video game enthusiasts. You don't see this in, say, pro-level StarCraft or Counter-Strike except in short bursts of emotions.

Honestly, his "Competitive guesser" argument could be said about any video game. Even speedrunners have to guess. It's just special coming from a dude with the blandest, most boring style in fighting games, practiced and static pattern-style I've ever seen.

Are you thinking of @LutherKujo ? This is where he was posted about in the Apex Legends thread https://kiwifarms.net/threads/apex-legends-general.53100/page-18#post-4440473 & https://kiwifarms.net/threads/apex-legends-general.53100/page-18#post-4440641 (there's relevant clips in these posts if you weren't looking for the whole thing)
This is the video where he was on DSP's team the whole time.

 

[James Smith]

So, is he safe or nah?

My personal predictions all say "Yes and no," here: https://kiwifarms.net/threads/dec-15-2019-foreclosure-saga.64148/page-49#post-5803252

Speaking of which.
I don't get why DSP doesn't ever revisit Tekken.

There are a bunch of new characters he could try and even the online is pretty much fixed now.
He really doesn't have any reason to not play it although he probably will say that he doesn't know what all these characters do and blame that for his lack of skill.

Because he can’t run the lobby probably. He’ll probably say some lame excuse like he can’t afford it/I don’t know if my straw men want to see it

 

[Very Honest Content]

The allegations weren't bullshit you mouth-breathing exceptional individual.

Most of his "debunking" didn't debunk anything. The only reason people think it was a debunking was because of the circlejerk and the fact they wanted jared to be innocent

The video could have been 1 hour of him running around the streets of new york shouting he's gay and you idiots would say he "debunked the haters" because you're not thinking with your brains but with your bias.

You're right, this is the wrong thread to not discuss this in relation to Phil though however. You can see the shills for Jared trying to craft that narrative away from how he was caught sexting minors without precautions for age verification in his own divorce fiasco thread desperately and it's pretty funny to see all the brand new accounts from last spring so 'relieved' after the carefully p.r. crafted video showed how innocent their cross dressing stream idol settled everything finally though. Meanwhile it's so mean of Phil to laugh at Jared's lolcow descent to cross-dressing cuck who pissed off his ex-wife because he couldn't get his side piece from an approved trough of cheating partners due to somehow Phil making Jared tweet at DSP in the first place to try and score e-points before Knaubenbaugher was outed as an exceptional individual, or something. King of Hypocrisy is only funny when you don't try and install a double standard for behavior, slanted against the person you're trying to stick with that zinger nickname, in the first place, otherwise it's just eye roll inducing attempt at trying way too hard.

Also because Wings is reliant on exactly the same income sources as DSP. He may in fact be just self-aware enough to realize he'd be throwing stones in a glass house were he to talk shit.

You're looking at the effective differences between your northeast breed of lolcow streamer and your redneck southern version of lolcow streamer there. Northeast has to protect that ego above all else, bust everyone else's balls because, I guess, through the influence of New York mafia culture ingrained on the general population hailing from that region, any damage to your public reputation is thought to possibly be followed with a tougher attempt on even your very life next time due to the perceived weakness. Contrast the southern redneck lolcow streamer's attitude, there's something you don't like having an effect on you in public, instead of putting up a tough front to try and cut it off, which won't be effective anyway as Sherman proved in Atlanta to your ancestors, you can acknowledge the situation, why you think it's fucked up from your point of view, then offer why you aren't going to change it as it's out of your control or ability to do so, in hopes to then make the most of the bad part of the particular situation you find yourself in going forward until the situation changes. It's more self preservation without defiance unless absolutely necessary to save life, limb or property directly under threat. Phil's northeast upbringing puts him into a bluster response to scare off the easily intimidated who might get any ideas from the current detractor example he's fronting towards but also stirs up even more derision from those who don't buy the act.

Phil's treatment of Wings is so senselessly stupid to me, and...It's the most exceptional bullying I've ever seen.

What example of Phil bullying WoR are you referring to? You're not making talking about WoR equal bullying here I hope, are you? You do have examples of Phil interacting with WoR to back up the bullying claims? Because Phil routinely will claim to only know about Wings from what he gathers from his chat so if you have proof otherwise, please present it here for all to peruse?

well not that i like the drunken peasants or anything but they're trying to jump into the vortex and that never ends well for anyone

I swear a generation ago the definitions of notoriety and fame got muddled together, and nobody notices, or remembers enough now, to get them distinctly separated from each other in the social media era of humanity again. It's really not for the better of society in general, except for in places here like kiwifarms either...

Speaking of which.

Tekken was about one fighting game wave after his prime era learning all the ins and outs of his beloved Turbo SF2? He needed to be born in the late 80s for it to have stuck with him is my guess.

 

[Forbidden Math]

One of Phil's biggest complaint with SFV is that the game has no "footsies", but even though I haven't played SFV I'm pretty sure that's untrue. I mean every fighting game has ranging and whiff punishing. So, SFV players, let me know if I'm wrong on that one. That said I don't think I've ever seen DSP try and play footsies, I mean he generally just does rushdown with no attempts to move in to range then out to get his opponent to whiff.

I mean it's a simple tactic but I don't think I've ever seen Phil do it. If I'm wrong let me know. If I'm right pretty funny he complains about something not being in a game when he doesn't even utilize it.


Let's be honest here, the real reason DSP hates SFV is the same reason he hates any modern competitive game: He loses and his ego can't take it.
