This fucker has never actually worked a real job. The first time he did he was let go despite the fact that his father got him his position as a phonejockey.

phil has had many jobs, several of them before the helicopter company. you can claim "phil has never done hard work in his life" and that's probably true, but saying phil has "never worked a real job" isn't true and isn't nearly as funny as the reality.

phil has worked many real jobs, he was fired from all of them.
 
The funniest part is he's mad the game is long and saying nobody could have beaten it, but he's played MULTIPLE 100+ hour rpgs.

This isn't even that long of a playthrough compared to FF7R/etc, I feel like.

He just absolutely hates a game expecting him to engage in any way.
The Yakuza 7 playthrough was some insane stalling. He only beat the game at around 90 hours in, then grinded a bunch and RQ at the second challenge dungeon. Makes me afraid to think just how long he's gonna play the new one that comes out this month, the director said it's gonna take way longer than 7.

And don't forget when he had to put effort in or was offered additional training to get advancements at a workplace he'd tell them to go fuck themselves every time, even if it was mandatory training.
 
i didn't know he was playing baldur's gate today and i slept through an hour of it. but skimming over the youtube timeline, it appears alll i missed in an hour as inventory management, i don't see combat or anything, so, i'm going to skip it.

phil came across the trapped Mushroom picker, Balen, but before he noticed he was there, he immediately attacked one of the mushrooms, setting off a chain reaction and murdering the man as well as destroying the coveted mushroom.

"well, i certainly didn't expect he was going to be in that. well, i found him...."

"now wait a minute, technically i didn't kill him, the explosion did, so can i speak with the dead? oh, the corpse is too damaged...."

i mean yeah, you literally blew him up.

"can i revive him? no...he's not playable..."

phil keeps forgetting that lae'zel gets two attacks per turn and is surprised by it every time. this has happened like three times.

i am still confused why he gave Lae'zel a one handed sword.

"what happened? wait? what's going on? there's more enemies?"

you walked into somethings line of sight, a line of sight you were able to see, and then got surprised when combat happened.

"wait, she got MORE actions?"

um, yeah, you used action surge? which replenishes your actions?

"YO, she's SUPER OP, she's ridiculously overpowered. why is she so good?"

phil has discovered how fighters work in D&D after 40 hours.

"the forge at the blacksmiths house? what blacksmith house? i don't even know what he's talking about."

phil has completely forgotten the blighted village forge that he found 30 hours ago because he's a slow fat bitch man pig fat.

phil has come across Gehk as his crew, he doesn't seem surprised by Gehk or what he's capable of, such as animating a bunch of corpses.

"uh, i'm silenced, i can't use any spells? fuck me"

yeah, that's what being silenced means.

"what sucks about the sovreign giant right now is he can't really do anything."

why not? he's a tank with melee abilities, there are zombies in front of you, smash them?

"alright let's walk him over here then"

oh, ok. phil just walked him away instead of attacking any of the nearby enemies.

"it's party time mother fucker, NO, his saving throw was successful? are you kidding me? he didn't get his concentration interrupted even though i just did all that. this is bullshit. that is complete bullshit and then it misses that too? OH COME ON MAN. this is fucking horseshit at this point."

"are you shitting me? i didn't get out of the radius? you fucking piece of dogshit, i didn't get out of the radius. fuck this. this is stoopid."

you are literally standing halfway in the fucking silence sphere my guy.

"this is incredibly stupid, get me the fuck out of this stupid fucking mud, asshole game. that pisses me off so bad."

"why do they all have 1hp? they didn't die? for some reason they didn't die. i don't understand that. why didn't they die? they all have 1, they have like a survival mechanic where they survived. how is that even possible? i killed no one."

they're undead, killing them isn't so simple.

"you see what i mean? this game is too complicated in my opinion. there's too many mechanics, i'd have never known this. i'd have never known and now i'm boned, but i'm just supposed to know there's mechanic ontop of another mechanic. it's too complex, i'm 40 hours in, i shouldn't have to still be learning new mechanics."

try not being stupid then? like, iunno what to tell you man.

"you'd think of playing any video game for 40 hours, you'd get an understanding of the game that you can just casually enjoy it"

i mean, iunno, i watched you play zelda for 80 hours and you never understood that game.

"look at all the mechanics going on right now, there's a giant field of silence, there's the opportunity attacks, there's so much going on with complexity in the game. as a gamer, i'm hoping at some point i get to where im like, ok, i get it, i understand everything and we can play it and enjoy it. i don't think that's ever going to happen and i don't like that."

again, try not being a moron? i understand this game pretty well and i've only played Divinity beforehand.

"i should've quad killed and instead i got 0 kills because there was a mechanic i didn't understand. the game is inaccessible"

i accessed it just fine.

"this game is not accessible, it expects you to study D&D or just get fucked. i don't like getting fucked."

"i worked hard to get my character to level 5 to get a crazy good skill"

you worked hard? all you did was play the game? shut the fuck up. he's been bitching for like 15 minutes about how the game is too complex, choice quote, "i could find RPGs that don't treat me like this." i don't really feel like transcribing all of this, but it's just low-IQ wailing because he's unintelligent.

"why doesn't this game cherish the time i put in it and reward me for it?"

because fuck you. that's why.

"i hope you guys can understand where i'm coming from."

ya, i understand. you have low IQ and you're playing a well made game that doesn't treat the player like a moron, and you are a moron. like a certified moron. Sony literally used you as the lowest common demonitor to prove their game design could be understood by the dumbest mother fucker on Earth. That's you. You're literally the poster boy for the dumbest gamer and you're playing a game that expects the player to be intelligent.

"you're kidding me. if you revive a mage they can't cast a spell?"

i mean yeah, he's pretty much a spore zombie, i don't see why he would be able to cast spells. "well, i'm glad the game told me that before i revived him" your stream chat told you that, you ignored them.

"if i disarm him, he'll definitely lose concentration."

how so?

"wait a minute, wait wait wait, are you telling me he still is concentrating? how is he concentrating when he dropped his weapon? that doesn't even make sense. it's saying he's still concentrated."

why would he need his weapon to concentrate?

after 45 minutes phil has defeated Gehk and his crew.


that's about the end of the stream, I don't really care to watch the last 20 minutes. so recap, in 4 hours phil did 2 fight encounters. Filro and Gehk. He has still not reached Grymforge. the end.

I put this on to actually watch it and promptly fell asleep.
 
What actually incentivized him to pig a magic class instead of some ranged ranger or rogue or just pure barb? Was he told they were super OP by some dent on his discord and he is too retarded to build the character right, or is he just afraid of taking damage despite his strat in every game being facetanking damage?

I think we can assume that Phil thought it’d be like the magic class in that Souls game he played. Constantly throwing lightning and shit.

Makes sense to me. Amazing how he never figures there are differences between genres and how their classes/magic systems work. Of course even understanding basics like these is too much for Phil, much less the actual nuances of these magic builds in games.
 
because of the shit going on with the DSP board right now, today's BG3 post is canceled. if anything of note happens I will mention it later, but I've got a lot of work to do and don't feel like writing up a big post if the board is just going to be deleted halfway through.

sorry for any inconvenience.
 
Taking this from the main thread but Phil is complaining that BG3 is not letting him win. Can someone tell me on which difficulty he is playing? I assume he is playing balanced. Or is he playing "Journo mode"?

Normal. He's mad he doesn't always win by face tanking.

Relatedly, does he have karmic dice on?
