Noticed this recently on my restreams that there's a "line" of distortion that goes along the middle of his webcam. It's constant, too. Really easy to notice tonight in COD.

Tevin has been complaining about it for a while now.

That actually is the shadow of the microphone. There is a light source - I think it's the sun - shining or reflecting in his face, causing the microphone to cast a shadow across his face when he's close enough to the mic and at the right angle.

Due to the low resolution of his webcam plus the compression artifacts from the livestream/low bit rate when a lot of stuff happens on screen - which gets even worse/more noticeable if you watch it on Youtube or through a re-stream - it sometimes looks like a straight line, but it's actually not.

Here's some footage taken directly from his latest Twitch VOD, which he hasn't deleted yet. Go full screen to see the shadow on his face, but also notice that his (oddly shaped) head and the loveseat both cast a shadow on the wall behind him. You see the mic shadow clearly moving across his man tits and face between 0:23-0:29:


















Some time ago, people also thought he had a wet spot along his chest/stomach when wearing particular shirts, but that's also turned out to be his mic casting a shadow on him. You can also see this happening in the clip above.

I always play games on normal difficulty (if they offer a choice) because I want the experience. If its a good game i want to replay or has challenges I'll up it

I can't fault Phil for this.

However..."At any moment, I could pick up a controller..." you know where this goes.

I would agree with him to a certain extent, HMP is the default difficulty and even then it's certainly not press A to win, you can still be killed in seconds if you don't pay attention. Games are also supposed to be about enjoyment, so playing on the easiest or hardest difficulty doesn't make you any more or less of a gamer. Of course a good streamer would make any difficulty level entertaining to watch.

14 bottles of sauce is theft

not making payments towards $130,000 debt and attempting to discharge it through bankruptcy is not theft

Very presumptive of DSP to assume the old woman wasn't charging all the sauce to a credit card she was going to declare bankruptcy on to not have to pay back!

A baby's cry can be over 120 dB. That's the volume strength of a siren. There's no chance DSP (who is not exactly Father of the Year material) is consistently seeing to his supposed child's needs to the extent that no one has ever heard it make a sound until now. Not unless it was being housed somewhere else and it was just brought to the compound yesterday.

This is partly because I don't want it to be true, but in addition to being loud as fuck, babies will interrupt sleep and require frequent attention at all hours of the day. Think about how bent out of shape Phil gets about his self-imposed schedule. Then imagine a screaming shit factory that gives absolutely zero fucks what his schedule is. Not a chance he would have maintained his exact schedule.

Also remember that Jasper was promised as a "huge positive" for future streams. Maybe Kat is going to dragged on stream for co-OP Animal Crossing.

I can't believe he hasn't reached the stage where he dictates what a minimum tip should be.

Kinda already has with his bitching about the 30 cent fee PayPal takes that has resulted in people tipping $1.30 now. Not exactly what you mean, but close.

Is there any info/pics of his parents in this massive thread or another?
He said once that his mother was the type who never accepted blame or could ever be wrong on any topic.
If Dave is only 2nd place in the Burnell family narcissists pool I'd like to see his mothers version of the pre stream

I can't believe phils complaint about DOOM Eternal is that it plays like DOOM and caters to fans of DOOM..its like complaining that a Mario game has platforming.

I think this pretty much confirms that Phil didn't play the classic DOOM games and started only with DOOM 3 like the only DOOM game i've played is 2016 and even i know what classic DOOM is like.
