I wonder if her "intelligent observation" has anything to do with realising she married someone who has $500,000 of debt

it'll probably be anniversary related

edit:

this information could possibly be, "revealed if we hit the tips goal, some positive news, and if we double it, maybe an extra piece of information that can effect the streams positively"

"i'll be streaming for another 45 minutes and we're $498,095 away from the big reveal, what do you mean "will I reveal if we don't hit the goal", you dumb ass, then what's the point of the goal, gahd ppl are stupid"

So, huh, guys, regarding the announcement I promised you on Twitter - follow me if you don't already - my wife Kate, she's pretty good with numbers. You know, despite being a cashier, she could easily, easily be an accountant - on top of a bikini model, and, I'm sorry I have to say it but that's just the honest truth, if she had been the kind of people who make me bite my nails ? Probably would have been able to attend an Ivy League university and become a cosmonaut, just the way it is.

Anyway, to the point, she figured something out. If all of my subscribers gave me a 1 000$ each, I would have around 400 000$ dollars - give or take, off the top of my head - and that is very, very nearly enough to bail me out of this really sh#tty situation I'm in. Like, it was already hard being the one man on the internet who's standing up to game developers and their unfair gameplay practices, but since this whole beer-virus fiasco, you guys have less money, and that means I - me - have less money, and, long story short, truth of the matter is, I'm not making ends meet. It's sad to say but in this day and age raking 8K a month playing video games just isn't enough for a hard working man to provide for his family - I have a cat, guys, and it's really been working him to see his warden not know what tomorrow's made of, because he knows, he knows since I haven't been able to afford premium cat food for a few months now.

So, you know, if you all pooled up and gave a measly thousand dollars each - barely the price of 2 coffee machines - well, I'd be that much less in debt. Still in debt, mind you, because on top of carrying honesty in gaming journalism, I also single-handedly keep WWE Champions afloat, and that really takes a lot of money. But, again, it's that or the street - or worse, prison, and we all know there's only so much nail I can bite in such an environment - and frankly, don't you, and I, deserve better ?
 
Paying $170 to make him wear the vest for 10 min

To be fair to the wheelchair, 70 was for the vest, the other 100 was for the hat.

Pretty amazing that someone has won a top contribution during these with all of $7 being what they threw in, so why the 24 times more here for a costume change, I'll never understand? Autism flex I guess.

Jesus wept..the fuck is he wearing. Chris chan has better dress sense for pity sake.

Which era OPL dress sense? Because depending on that, maybe.

Honestly, I'd bet he'll run this game into the ground just like Blackout while shitting on it every time and talking about how it sucks. It's a free game, and he'll be able to hide out in rooms while he yammers about bullshit. It'll be Blackout 2.0.

Those were really good quality streams though, just not for the gameplay even when victory camping...

Holy shut I watched that whole stream and didn’t realize it was a different person handholding him than the cuck who handholds him in Minecraft. Fucking losers

It's a mod. They both start with the screen name with the letter 'p' though so it's easy to just assume Papavera is a dual hand holder during two different chill games though, I did it too for the start of the first couple of these Elder Scrolls streams also.

Kat: Im with Tyrone
DSP: But we are still up for dinner?

"Nothing I could do" was right there dood.

Blaster master for the Nes is an absolute bitch unless you print out a map for it.

Master Blaster. And it is even with a map telling you where you need to get to in order to find the next maze sections out of the vehicle. He may have played it already though in the 80s? He does know of, for comparison's example, Rygar but doesn't remember playing the home port or the arcade cabinet however, so maybe your suggestion would be both 'new' and rage inducing for him if it somehow wins? I'm leaning more towards hoping for a newer release that will damage his fighting game ego for the unleashed pure torrent of rage being more guaranteed, whereas some old NES game will just get hand waived away as outdated when it won't fold itself for him.

Ignored and banned cheer.

Highlighted messages are not cheers.
...Once you hear it you can't unhear it. He's literally almost non-stop rocking from all the way back on his couch with his head in 'O' position from "The Incident" to all the way forwards to within 2mm of his microphone like twice every sentence.
He claims he has no idea he's doing it but...You can see him consciously stop himself from doing it all the time during his streams, he does like ½ to 1½ rocks and then purposefully stops himself.

Godbear damnit this is going to become the new incident this year of the oddly shaped head taunt name I can't unhear\see now, isn't it? I'm assuming he's on the phone pulling gacha tip wastes as the prestream rocking is unabated next time I notice it then.

Well he's cheating blatantly in Nioh by playing 10 hours between each boss and thus being 20 levels above recommended so he can steamroll it and 1 shot every grunt and normal NPC.

How is this cheating? Grinding through over-leveled, sure. But cheating? Where's the level hack exploit employed?

Only dumb kids play Warzone and the game takes no skill. I want to watch a 40 year old man play Animal Crossing. That's what real gamers do to show off their pro gaming skills.

Khet fucking loves Animal Crossing though, I bet the stream will be her anniversary 'present.'

It's obviously not cheating. But it kind of defeats the purpose of playing the game in the first place. He might as well play a graphical novel 'game' at this point.

It'd be like watching a guy play Fifa or something with a Champions League team and stomping 12th tier team in friendly matches. It's just not a challenge, but obviously not 'abusing' any exploits.

Is the grinding on stream? If so, whatever, I can't judge for that. It's when he does shit like that off stream, or when he blatently cheated in his Demons Soul playthrough with item duping off camera that it's pathetic.

I thought the purpose of Phil playing this game was to see how many under-counted deaths on the death counter get hand waived away under some excuse akin to 'tutorial mission deaths aren't deaths,'? Now that's cheating...

I can see both sides, but I was thinking about this on Monday when I was watching TIHYDPs in the background.

In his first Bloodborne run, DSP grinded offscreen so that he was super overleveled. And yeah, we made fun of him for it. But it also meant two things:

1) He actually "technically" worked overtime at his job.
2) He actually somewhat enjoyed playing the game, even if it was just killing low level enemies.

2020 DSP would never grind off screen. That would be too much effort for him. 2020 DSP plays the bare minimum that he has to and not a second more. 2020 would grind on-screen, have the most boring 4 hours possible (see Morrowind) and then tell his audience that he HAS to grind because the game is stupid and you're a dumb fuck idiot kid if you don't agree with it.
 
  • [D]idn't he actually [xyz] ? ...
  • He can't possibly [xyz] ! ...
  • He can't possibly have [xyz]THAT similar to some dumb fuck valley girl can he?

He is far from a complicated creature, & accordingly does not require complicated equations. At most, just suspense of disbelief.

Answers to the above are unwaveringly:
  • Yes, but now retconned/denied no less than 4×.
  • Yes. Yes he can. And he does.
  • Yes. Yes he can. And he does, although your parallel is too generous.

You have a point, but he still ragequit the DLC AND the Chalice Dungeons because they were too challenging and he couldn't brute force his way through them with raw stats.
For someone who "loved" the game and the Souls style of games, he gave up when it asked more of him than "R1 spam and occasionally press roll"
Even then he was still unwilling to put in the effort to learn the game on a technical level, and saw the game as yet another race to the credits reel, as work. The credits rolled when he killed the Moon Presence, he didn't have to put in more effort than that.

i cant believe he can say shit like this with a straight face knowing how he acts to some of his viewers when they have the slightest nerve to criticize him and hell immediately retort with exceptional dood cmon you dont know shit

First of all, fuck off. You don't even know what you're talking about. When has Phil ever been rude to someone? To trolls and detractors? Absolutely because they threaten his livelihood and his business. But has he ever been rude to an average viewer? Someone who just wants to participate in chat and be positive and have fun? Never! Never in a million years! People are so full of shit and just love to make shit up to make Phil look bad. It's HIS fault and HE'S the one flying off the handle. Wrong, and uh...WRONG.

How do you expect Phil to react when someone sends him $5 and says "Good morning Phil, hope all is well!" How the fuck do you think it's going?! He talks about how bad shit is every single day! Obviously it's not a good morning. So it's obvious the guy is an asshole and a troll just looking to start shit. Or the guy who tips $5 to ask why Phil is playing Street Fighter when the title says Morrowind. Uhhh it's obvious the dude is a moron and looking for attention. Do you see him playing Morrowind? Uh no, you don't. Did he maybe forget to change the title in a moment of weakness? Yes! Is that a crime against humanity?! No. It's not. Why not be a mature, intelligent adult, get the fuck over yourself and accept it. Maybe if you used critical thinking skills and deductive reasoning you'd figure out that MAYBE something happened and that's why Phil is playing a different game.

God damn people are fucking stupid. Why can't you guys just be fun and positive instead of flying off the handle all the time and trying to start shit to make Phil look bad? It's feeling like 2017 again and Phil's getting his groove back,getting his vibe back. And he's ready for fun things but it seems like no one else is.

So far he just bitches about how he was nervous about doing groceries on his own because of the panic buyers, but it turns out everything went just fine, he find most things he wanted and only stayed 5 minutes at the checkout.

Edit: He went to a liquor store "out of curiosity". Uh huh.

Edit #2: No more bottle crunches. Got his old stein that will 100% find a way to use it to milk money from his retarded fanbase.

How boring do you have to be that you have to resolve to talking about water, Jesus fucking Christ, Phil.
