DSP refuses to play the hottest game on twitch to stream now instead he is going to finish a Reeeeeeeeeeedemption run of a 3 years old game that he played and sucked before, just so that Wagginz can get so bored so that he has to handhold DSP to finish the game as soon as possible

It's a fair point. Shroud had 100k+ viewers earlier playing it. DrDisrespect had over 50k. While he would obviously never reach those numbers, I'd bet good money that he'd see a noticeable bump in viewership. But sure Dave, play a game you for some reason seem to go out of your way to antagonize it's fanbase.

Just like Ni No Kuni II earlier this year, because that was a big success. /sneed
It seriously cracks me up how he repeats the same fuckups so frequently. It hasn't even been a year since the last time a big JRPG burned him because he can't strategize and optimize plans to save his life.

That is why he is his biggest detractor. Not the people that throw him quarters to get him riled up for sound bytes. Not the people that try run campaigns to get him kicked off Twitch. Not even the people that successfully lobby potential sponsors to drop him. If Phil had any competence, these would be minor setbacks. But Phil is lazy, too thin skinned, and too shortsighted to save himself.
He is lazy because he let a Twitter poll that 50 probably voted on determine what game he is playing. A tired game that nobody wants to see and his current lead mod is begging for him to end. He thinks that new releases alone will save him but he ignores the fact that those games are not pulling in the numbers that they once were. People just find him boring now. He needs to be looking for the next trend, not just the next big game or a meme game that somewhat worked for him in the past. But he is too thin skinned to play games that might draw too much attention. Like people mentioned earlier, he should be playing Black Out COD. Phil mentioned that he won't play large games or coop games because they will bring out the trolls. It is part of the reason he didn't do that stream with Wings. He can't take somebody saying gout and he is willing to go to his financial grave over it. But he doesn't think that is going to happen because he is short sighted. He thinks whales like Fagginz or Tut will keep showing up one after another. What happens when he have another bad run in the economy like in '08? Do you think mommy and daddy Fagginz will have enough money to give their boy so he can spend it on Phil? Remember, YT didn't really rise to prominence until after that market crisis. What kind of shitty ad revenue will he get then if he gets any at all? Does a car company that is already struggling to stay afloat want to fund an ad for somebody that thinks the height of commentary is screaming "Shitty Dicks?"
Phil doesn't plan on these things. That is why the end is right around the corner for him. He can smell it but he is too stupid and too arrogant to make those changes. GTG once said that Phil must have the Devil's luck and I think he is correct but that doesn't last forever. At some point it dries up and when it does it will be amazing.

Tanks through Slave Knight Gael (after several failed attempts) and barely survives, with no Estus flasks left over.
"THAT'S HOW IT'S DONE."
With an OP build handed to you by chat (and IGN's guides), guzzling flasks, and getting rekt by the same attacks over and over. Truly a champion
Edit: Tanks through the final boss as well, pretends to be surprised at only 2 phases. Considers receiving ~$120-130 for playing video games for like 6 hours a "slow day".

Everyone else:
Thanks for watching and participating, folks. As usual a lot of fun. I hope you have a nice day, take care of you. See you next stream.
Dave:
Uuuh, well that's it. Unfortunately it was a slow stream, I would have expected more interactivity from you guys. Hopefully some of you decide to throw some money next time, as you know I have to pay the bills and taxes and an empty wallet triggers my depression.
This stuff is just what you want to hear after a long real life day and troubles financing yourself. Real life problems of a lazy couch potatoe who want's your hard earned money. But how to even argue with the most prolific human being in the entire solar system?
As someone stated on YouTube (paraphrasing): Congrats on being so prolific with your 60.000 videos, you're a huge inspiration. I will just do a playthrough of a game and split it in 60.001 parts to be just as cool as you.

I love that he does this. It shows how battered his regular viewers are. Imagine being talked to like that by 40 year old man-child and still thinking "yeah, this is how I want to spend my day. Being blamed for this mans life".
It's like they're very weird battered spouses. I wonder what they see in him. Not even sarcastically, I legit wonder what they see in him.

Seriously the shit I was watching him get away with in his recent SFV matches is disgusting. I play around that level and I’ve never seen so many players fail to get some sort of combo off of a crush counter. Hell I’ve seen bronze players that could do it consistently.
But the most aggravating thing is watching him play 3 rounds against people where he sits there and jabs, walk forward, and grab, and these people just never bother to identify he’s doing it....

Let's wildly speculate why he rocks back and forth. I've done some research and it seems to be a way people cope with stress. Because it's definitely not stretching like you would if your back is hurting.

It's definitely a stress coping mechanism imo. He used to complain about his back in CT all the time and I don't remember him rocking. Now he rarely mentions his back but almost constantly rocks. It's a major reason I can't listen to any of his videos anymore, the constantly oscillating volume of his voice is too annoying.

Holy shit, to put it mildly. And his excuse for not showing the cam during prestream is, we can see him during gameplay so that has to be enough.
Who would have thought the real reason is he rocks spastically around. I would agree that seems to be a tick coming from stress. Or his magically healed back isn't cured after all, because magic Seattle air isn't part of any healing process.
Do you think this prestream card will vanish soon? Either the artist made it around 1% transparent on purpose, on accident or Dave just made a mistake.
This has some banner o' Tevin properties, amazing we haven't recognized this before. But still, why even include a cam in this OBS scene? Ah yes, the usual incompetence.

I mean, we knew that he does this... my favourite moment is from an unboxing:
But seeing it... he absolutely goes nuts with it when he believes he is not visible, but then will be on facecam for three hours and not do it. Does it bother him to not be able to do it? I know his voice indicates he is moving, but I didn't picture it being this crazy. This and the snorts may be a tic or a nervous thing... but with this degree of severity, he must have some kind of mental condition, even if it is just anxiety. Every prestream is apparently a secret personal tizzy.
This slide was either a golden accident or a great troll, but I like how he accidentally jacks off on camera, and then still just leaves his webcam on and clearly just assumes he isn't visible. It's like he wants to throw the dice on something happening again. It isn't that hard to turn it off.

:autism:
Really that simple. That and just being plain obnoxious. It's like his snort -- he can 100% control it and not do it despite his blatant lies to the contrary, he's just too much of a lazy cunt to not cut it out. The observed exception however is when anyone with power is watching, then he puts on the FakeSyde persona so he doesn't get in trouble.

I don't think it's autism because Phil's been acting the same exact way since whenever the fuck his parents fucked up and spoiled his piddly ass. The only difference between old and new Phil is that new Phil has way worse commentary for his gameplay videos. That's about it. He was always a cunt. He never rocked like that in older videos.
So, I think he's slowly becoming un-done on a mental level. Assuming narcissism is a mental illness then there's only so long you can go on thinking you're the king of the world. Sooner or later reality will set in.

Phil's most successful genre this year: Battle royales.
A new battle royals comes out.
Phil goes nah, let's not.
Its Monster Hunter all over again.

I know what he's thinking; he's played hot new meme games before and got trash viewership because the normies who want to watch those games aren't going to go to fucking DSP for their CoD fix. So he plays games like DS3, which he knows attracts the fringe crowd as well as his usual cucks who are more engaged and "interactive". Of course, this means he'll never truly grow because he's not trying to. He's just trying to bilk more money out of his existing pool of cucks.
