I don't think Phil will like Undefeated much. It's PvP and requires some skill, not just mindlessly tapping your screen a couple times and winning 99% of the time.


That's how many whales I've been with in guilds talk. They hate it, they rip on the game developers constantly for their greed and laziness, they know how stupid it is to spend these types of money on shitty mobile games, but they can't help themselves.

I've always viewed it as the mechanics of the games being fun, in the sense of incremental growth and uniqueness but wanting it to be better.

For example, Arknights is the best tower defense game by a mile and there's no real alternatives. Or people who want a Pokemon/Yu-Gi-Oh MMO but their only real options are Hero/Card collecting gachas.

I admit that I play a sort of card collecting game where winning relies primarily on luck (5%) or whaling out hard (the rest of the percentage), and I've dropped some serious Google opinion survey dollars (maybe 10 over a few years) for a couple minor perks... The game is at least fun so I don't mind dropping the 99 cents in Walmart receipt credit every couple months, and more enjoyment is spent shooting the shit and playing other social games with other people is worth the trouble. I will never "win" in the game. I might be in a group that places well in certain events, but I'll never take home the gold in individual shit. I play my games for fun. If I didn't have fun, and have the added benefit of cool dudes to talk shit with, I wouldn't play.

Phil doesn't play gacha games to be social. He doesn't play any game for fun. He plays games for 2 reasons, and 2 reasons only. 1. To get money from speds who have more disability dollars than common sense, or 2. Because whaling makes him feel like he's winning somehow.

Behind the scenes, you know he's secretly proud of his placement in global events in beefcake bitmaps. But he can't share it with anyone, cause they'll just call him a fag. This is partly why he'll never admit to playing wwe Champions to the extent that we think/know he is. NotDSP will continue to make top-ish places, we'll see the results and laugh, and he'll continue to cry poor.

Such is the life of an addict beggar.

I think this stuff only becomes a problem if it's a problem. If someone's in good shape financially and it's less than what you'd pay for a triple-A title, no harm done.

But what's scary is that people can and do spend thousands of bucks on this stuff when they can't afford it.

I dunno. I'm of the opinion that you shouldn't keep someone else from ruining their life, but I'd almost support some sort of cap on how much people can spend on gambling games each month, and define loot boxes as "gambling games." I'd feel a lot better about the people who run casinos and games like this if they did it voluntarily, but they won't. I guess it's a question of how common it really is for people to blow so much on this.

Some online casinos have these features. You can self ban for 30 days or if they notice a trend in your play they might exclude you for a bit. i think scopely skirts these regulations so they literally take money straight from DSP's wallet. I just can't comprehend doing this on a game where you can't win money back. blackjack, roulette even lottery gives some slim chance of a jackpot.

Those "not a problem" 99.9% of players spend nothing or a few bucks here and there. The thing is that these mobile games completely rely on the few paypigs to keep their games going, the rest are worthless. If limits are instituted, this entire gaming genre immediately dies.

It's a really bad thing that society allows this, along with shameless e-beggars like Phil and the endless amount of e-girls today that's only going to get worse as there's increasingly more people isolated from society in our fucked up social media/Instagram status world. But, money talks and morality walks.

If he could get one of his 'artist' paypigs to supply him with unlimited wrestler titties do you think he'd be satisfied or do you think he needs the loss of large amounts of money to completely reach climax?

Depends on if he can get it off to that low-effort MS Paint drawing style. These days all of his fan art that has any amount of effort or competence put into it is done by a "sneak disser/detractor"

I have been following Phil for years and I'm not bored yet,I can still follow him for a long time,I want to see how he reacts when Scopely shuts down the servers to force people to go into a new WWE game or what happens many years from now when the majority of the whales leave and his viewer base is greatly diminished so he has no money left to whale on this,we know that there is data that shows his fan base gets smaller and smaller each year,its only a matter of time before he is making so little he can't buy pulls anymore and I want to be there to see it,maybe once he can't play anymore because he has no money he will admit it to his audience.

Anyone who has played this trash or is familiar with how these gachas go, are you allowed to use your paypal as payment for all the bullshit?

Reasons to ask is I'm curious how he could possibly be paying for in game purchases.
