DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[BScCollateral]

At this point I'm surprised major AAA studios don't just sponsor him and give him early access to games before PewDiePie or anyone else just for the sake of comedy - it would at least get actual attention in this day and age

Concord, Star Wars Outlaws, Dustborn and Dragon Age Veilguard all got a lot of attention before they released. Contrary to what people say, not all publicity is good publicity.

 

[Chieftain Coke Peanut]

An in person fan meet up is antithetical to both Phil and his fans, but I would still love to see one happen. He's done a virtual one way back in the day and you could tell he was getting pissed at seeing all of his fans are retards and rejects. Having to meet with them face to face, smile, shake their hands, it would be hell on earth for his narc ego to see in person that his legacy is entertaining dents. I wouldn't put it past some of them to go full Chris Chan and start getting grabby either.

On the bright side his line of fans would be about 5 deep at best so it'd be over quickly

Then he could retreat to the snort fort and declare a standing room only meet and greet where he actually defeated a troll in CQC who showed up to kill him before eating the newest Superman kid's meal from Mcdonald's to celebrate.

Has Phil ever talked about being recognized by randoms in public? I can only image how awkward those encounters are.

 

[Do Not Touch Me Pls]

It's crazy how quick he is to shut down anything that is in 2d or has a retro vibe to it...

The absolute dichotomy of him buying black mesa and at the same time yelling at project zomboid for being too old.

He's really everything that's wrong with the AAA audience, he doesn't care about gameplay or how a game sets a tone (see how he plays death stranding). He just want a game with flashy graphics a story that's beaten in 2ish hours (that's 10h in Phil) and no difficulty.

The way he treats Indie games as a whole is insufferable. If an Indie is from a genre he'll ignore it and just claims it's an Indie, then compare it to a AAA slop he played from the same genre and call it a rip off.

He's really everything he claims to hate in modern audience.

Ironically I saw him tolerating the classic 2d/retro vibe games way more than he does with Assassin's Creed Shadows or Black Myth Wukong, as far as Mighty D or Memology footages would suggest (e.g. he still plays the Capcom arcade collections for some time after he quit SF6 completely). He just hates games now and is forced to play them for income and he would had been fit way more in a political correctness witchhunt front than any legitimate gaming community.

He did a long time ago. Now he never mentions it happening, which why some think he basically never leaves his gated community.

1) He could easily have groceries delivered.
2) Seems to only have meals delivered.
3) Those horrible haircuts certainly look self-inflicted

For DSP Tries It, several times dents have suggested non-chain restaurants 5 minutes from Phil's house and he's not aware they exist. He might just be stupid, but he's definitely not explored Renton much in the decade he's lived there.

remember that video where he was going through his old xbox 360 messages and it was nothing but kids sending him voice mails and he was like "what the fuck, are all my fans little kids?"
yes, phil. yes they are. you are a children's entertainer, and any adult fans you have have the mentality of children because they're retards.

Didn't Phil already meet up a few (child) fans in some con? One of them was Blaq so his cortisol levels must have spiked.

I believe Phil gets groceries delivered most of the time, all meals delivered (this one is pretty much confirmed), goes out for his monthly haircuts with Katherine to the formerly named Curls n' Twirls and the occasional errand that he always bitches about in his prestream.

Also, Phil won't drive on highways so he's limited to Southcenter and a couple strip malls unless Katherine drives and I suspect she can't/doesn't anymore. Another reason moving to Seattle was a mouth drooling decision by Phil.

 

[DPRK Is Real Wakanda]

Remember a year-or-so ago when Phil got sick and had to take a few days off streaming? He admitted to using Instacart for grocery delivery. I believe that he has used grocery delivery exclusively ever since. He's never setting foot inside of a grocery store again.

 

[Big Brown Schlub]

Considering how he played Darkest Dungeon back in the day

Just to give people here kahntekst - he played like a chimp. No exaggeration, no (sandwich shahp) analogy, no metaphorical meaning of the phrase "played like a chimp." He played like a literal chimp. There's having terrible tactics and strategy, which is what he usually exhibits in any game that requires even a fraction of it, and then there's his Darkest Dungeon "gameplay." He quite literally picked which skill to use and who to target with it at random, again no exaggeration. He was like a chimp that was given 4 buttons to pick a skill and then another 4 to choose who to target with it - the chimp would just spazz out and start pushing the buttons at random. That's how he played.

 

[Just Some Other Guy]

"Dood I was pushing buttons. Nuffin' I could do!"

Because he lives his life in that much fear. Hell, even him getting spotted at the Costco near his house when we all saw soulmaid for the first time in forever and how she got fat, I know that put the fear of God into him. Hell, he gets spooked when he hears a car pass by and has to go "Wait a second, I hear something outside." Also, when he took pictures from INSIDE of his mature adult condo when they had a ice storm up there. Dude is afraid to go outside to his stoop. He only goes outside to get his DoorDash order and/or Amazon delivery package, but God forbid if they drop it off at his neighbors house and he has to run outside in his pajamas, like he's an escaped mental patient on the loose.

Phil is a prisoner inside of his own home and that is by his own doing, yet will project the world that they are "mentally ill morons" with "no friends, no real lives outside of the internet." ProjectionSydePhil at it's finest.

Doordash.
Instacart.
Digital downloads (Steam, Gamepass, etc.)
Amazon.

Yup. Never has to go out again. Online shopping thrives off lazy NEETS like Phil.

Also check these Dubs.

 

[Mysterious Figure]

The only other time we heard of him kissing her is when he was about to stream and he had to kiss her like he was a going to war because he might get mad while playing Street Fighter. Utter lunacy.
The only interaction is when he pet her shoulder- HE PET HER FUCKING SHOULDER. He fucking fluttered his phalanges like he was petting a pet mouse. Everytime I think about that stream I physically have to wipe my shoulder in cringe.

Anybody got footage of these? I'd love to see the cringe!

 

[Phil the Salesman]

almost certain that yt has something set up such that his channel is completely ignored on their end due to the sheer number of false reports he's gotten over the years. he could probably murder kat live and last at least another 72 hours before yt does anything about it.

This is gonna sound borderline crazy but I almost believe the opposite. We all live in this bubble that thinks the world hates Phil and is taking action against him all the time, when in reality outside the vocal group of detractors nobody gives a fuck about Phil or even knows who he is. I doubt he receives many reports nowadays because of how many reports people assume he already gets. I also think despite having a public phone number, I bet it is VERY rare for him to receive unsolicited texts/calls from detractors.

Phil should play toaster bath simulator next

 

[TheGreatWhiteNorth]

Phil backpedalling (as usual) from his stupid mouth saying how bad Rimworld is because the graphics aren't his idea of what a good game should look like, and because of the price. Of course, the developer laughed at Phil, and the video from DSPGOUTGOUT got more attention (what a surprise) due to Phil's sheer stupidity compared to his explanation as to why Rimworld is "bad".

1:53

And here's his cope (spoiler: blame the audience instead of admitting you're a retard):

 

[Skippy Shortbottom]

If you think about it seriously, then a retard failing to do simple stuff in your game would give others the impression that said game was clunky/too mechanically complicated. DSP is best used as a prop, like in that Sony presentation, where they've shown footage of him flailing around as a proof that AAA titles need to steer player towards solutions, because even complete and utter retards deserve to experience the story.

He could be used as the tactic to get people to play those shitty mobile games you see advertised with the number shooting shit or the tower defense games. Anything more and we get what you mention, GoW style dumbing down.

Those shitty shooting collecting games can be captivating to watch but they purposely pick a wrong number and then lose and it gives you the feeling of wanting to play the game yourself.

Phil actually has that affect on me at least. I think seeing his Splatoon 3 gameplay made me actually want to play it due to how incredibly wrong he was playing it and his lack of gyro control use. He almost made me want to play the new Mario Kart as well.
