It's amazing how connected people are to certain streamers. In the last couple weeks I discovered the enigma known as DarkSydePhil, a streamer/youtuber that's been around for around 8 years and is infamous for being terrible at games and just being terrible.
Despite being around for so long, he isn't exactly super successful having around 180k subs on YouTube and a following on Twitch.His YT career in particular continues to decline with Machinima(didn't know they were still around) dropping him and him experiencing financial issues(depending on Patreon while leasing a brand new BMW and an expensive condo at that).
What surprised me is how dedicated his haters and fans are. Literally after every play through he does, there's a This Is How You Don't Play lowlight videomade by various users made within days. These things aren't short either, I've seen some go up to 4 hours and it isn't just raw gameplay, they're often fully edited with graphics, comments, etc. That has to take time.
His fans are just as dedicated defending him on his stream chat or in the comments on YouTube.
What's even crazier is that there is a weekly podcast discussing DarkSydePhil that literally goes on for 2-4 hours PER PODCAST. Keep in mind, that the podcast does not include DSP, that's fucking insane. Not even the biggest Youtubers or streamers have this kind of scary dedication. Jesus.
I'd understand it more if DSP was some huge Internet personality like PewDiePie or the other ones. He's just some asshole who's terrible at games that's been around a but.
Some of my favorite moments
-DSP literally spending 1 hour trying to beat the first boss in the Bloodborne Old Hunters DLC.
-DSP getting trolled in Mortal Kombat
- His "laugh"
-He got caught jacking off when he thought the webcam was off but im not linking that
-DSP Getting Doubled Perfected in SFIV Because "There Was Nothing He Could Do" and the other guy was "cheating"
-Some dude trolling the shit outta DSP

By Facism Go To Postgod i love all that DSP dramaTorturting field but very useful to learn. If you want a good introduction I suggest "The Scientist and Engineer's Guide to Digital Signal Processing" by Steven W. Smith. It should get you nicely started.

Susan pls.
By Xpike Go To PostWhat about Chris chan
Well you brought this fine female up, so you kind of have to tell us. What about her?
By Xpike Go To PostWhat about Chris chanJust searched for him and YouTube and he's seems.....disturbed. Also, obviously handicapped.
By Wahabipapangus Go To PostWell you brought this fine female up, so you kind of have to tell us. What about her?Well everyone should see his cameo in sonic boom

Her. Don't be insensitivite, spy.
By Lupercal Go To PostNaruto : Road to Boruto any good ?Those games are legit good games even if you don't like the source material. I can vouch for it.
Can get my hands on a used copy for 20 €.
By rvy Go To PostThose games are legit good games even if you don't like the source material. I can vouch for it.dont say that to dy
By s y Go To Postdont say that to dydy the Naruto games are good and Naruto is shit.
This is the truth.
wouldn't mind going back to nms after some more updates hit, tbh. and once it's a part of a steam sale or something.
By rvy Go To Postdy the Naruto games are good and Naruto is shit.Yes.
This is the truth.
They get boring pretty quick though.
So never invest more than 20$.
Glad I stayed away from No Man's Sky. Was really hyped at first but ignored all updates that came afterwards since I was sure it was a game I'd want to buy and play. For some reason I assumed early on that MP in this game was obvious but when I learnt close to release there wasn't any it killed all my interest. Then it bombed. Weeeeeew.
Still hoping these periodic updates makes the game great. Think the devs put lots of passion and hours in this despite the results.

Chris-chan might be pound for pound the most amazing tale in the history of the internet. Don't know if I can link it here, but the whole insane story is under the Chris-chan and Sonichu entries on Encyclopedia Dramatica.
It is alternatively incredibly dark and hilarious. It's the absolute worst kind of hilarious though, where you know laughing makes you a horrible person but some of the twists are so outrageous, and just when you think he's sympathetic the subject goes and does something so assholish that it's hard to stop. You may want to think carefully before crossing over into that world.
By Wahabipapangus Go To PostDon't believe Rays lies. Don't buy Naruto product of any kind.You bought all the David Cage games, which are worse than the Naruto games.
By Smokey Go To PostIt's on a Steam sale right now.

Both of those statements are false.

But no. I am right.

Sterling is a bit of a fraud; he's putting on an act when he's getting worked up over nothing week after week and is definitely a very constructed jimmy-rustler.
That said, anybody DDoSing a guy for not liking stamina bars in Zelda is an idiot.

I haven't bought all David Cage games. This is fact. we are talking about facts.
By Pennywise Go To Post
man if this dude dont sit down some where
I'd probably give BOTW a 7
By RobNBanks Go To Postdata are you still playing titanfall 2?Nah, I'm waiting for a content patch. Respawn has been pretty shitty about putting out a timeline of what they're putting out. Angel City got old after a while and I don't give a FUCK about a pilot vs pilot mode. No one should. Hoping for some new maps and some new Prime Titan skins. It's kind of ridiculous that they still aren't out yet.
By blackace Go To Postpeople mad lol…Fanboy stuff is always hilarious, same goes for some smarter trolls or just outright stupid people, but those conspiracy people are always creepy.
I wonder how they get through their life.
I just love that if Zelda ends up to be a 95% overall that the future of the console is at risk... Thanks Jim...
That thread is a really good snapshot of what I mean by the fervor around Zelda reviews. Like people say its a symptom of fanboys and gaming reviews but no man, Zelda is different. Something about Zelda getting bad reviews just makes people buckwild, to an even bigger degree than Naughty Dog, Rockstar, Blizzard whatever else fans.
It's not even a Nintendo thing. It's a Zelda specific thing. It's like Zelda getting a 98 metacritic changed their lives.

By data Go To Postone of my favorite games of all time has a 68-70 metacritic:nod:
like who fucking cares
That snippet from GAF was pretty sad though, getting depressed over fucking review scores....
Anyway.
Finished Horizon and got the platin trophy.
The really fucking delievered and suprised me. Never expected that from Guerilla Games to be honest, even with alot of goodwill.
Well written, well executed in terms of gameplay and wonderfully crafted world.
An Open World title that doesn't overstay it's welcome and limits the amount of quests to a nice number, so it doesn't feel overbearing.
Despite alot of small flaws, the overall package is really well done and you can overlook those small flaws easily.
Story spoilers.
I wish we could have seen a bit more from the old days, both within Gaia and outside.
Really reminded me of alot of good movies and I wish we could have had a small gameplay segment or sequence during that time.
I don't think the ending necessarily screams for a second title, but we all know how videogames work and they left enough space to give us a sequel or prequel or whatever.
Glad Guerrilla took a step away from Killzone and we finally got another good AAA production out of Europe, which is getting a bit scarce over the last years.
Now, apart from my own games that I still need to play, a colleague gave me CoD IW, MW, TF2, Oceanhorn and Firewatch. Alot of shooting ahead.

Never been able to decide where I stand on Jim Sterling
He has some interesting videos, but his voice is irritating, his content often seems a bit faux-outragey, and his schtick is shite
If he thinks BotW is a 7 though, fair enough. Gonna get a Switch after Persona I think

By Suen Go To PostHow do you have so much time. When did you turn to KyufofuSemester break.
University starts in April and I've got plenty of time until then.
Why are you awake at that time? Isn't there a smelly metro waiting for you in a couple of hours?
By Pennywise Go To PostSemester break.I'm taking sick leave. You can fuck off and be my replacement for the smelly metro.
