He’s a fucking moron. Just because he doesn’t want to dedicate a little time to the game, he refuses to play MHW which could have been a fucking GOLD MINE for him. But no, because lazy. We all remember how horribly his Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate playthrough went; if it weren’t for his cat, he never would’ve made progress. He played it incredibly passively, running around like a ritard and not inflicting damage. Played it just like he played PUBG; hide out and let someone else do all the work.
Meanwhile, guys like octaneblue streams MHW and Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate STILL and continues to get a bunch of viewers and money. He even gets anywhere between 5k-50k+ on his Monster Hunter videos... it’s pretty much all he and his group of friends play often. My boy Flik from Flik’s Gaming Stuff is a variety streamer as well, but he still picks up MHW and has recently started streaming viewer hunts on MHGU, meaning he gets his audience involved and keeps them watching. Retention is a huge deal but it’s something foreign to Phil. Just like subtlety, decency, honesty, corrective lenses, a healthy lifestyle...
