Hey DPS Phill I think the Taco Bell nuggets are okay but the sauces are very tasty

I noticed something about you. You were wearing an Ascot. The forigner(2003) connection? I think Beepy or DICKERS as you guys call him might had made a fatal error. If that was an Ascot you were wearing Phil it means classic cap wise mate YOU ARE ONE OF US. I am a flat cap man with over 120 caps AND 10 ascots. Rich looks like a past causal called Trever but I have def changed my mind on you since unlike whiskers you have proven yourself mate. RICH? He def screams like a 1000hz sine wave tone and oh my god no wonder I call what he has "GRUB" def the size of a grub and Rich pretty much said a dead giveaway on that.

merry christmas DSP!

تراني عمك وانت هطف يا شايب

Detractors keep onto you to play games with passionate fanbases, that they know you don't want to play. They do this becasue they know it will wildly irritate you to try make you do things you don't want to, and make you be unfair to and talk negatively about the game over and over again. That is what they want you to do, that is the goal of keeping onto you about it. When you do this, they clip it out of context (context being they badgered you for months to play a game you didn't want to play) and then show it to the fanbase of that game to make them angry at you. These fanbases are not going to look into why you said what you said, only what you said in the clip and then become DSP haters because of it.

They are growing their audience of people angry at you, to consume their videos and make more money off you. They treat their channels hating on you the same you treat yours, and they are growing their audience and business.

Stellar Blade is a prime example of this strategy being used on you, to ruin your business and build their own. You complained about Stellar Blade numerous times (you are still talking about it cause they keep goading you, and it came out 8 months ago) and said the same surface level things over and over again because they kept instigating you to do it, and they farmed every clip when you did and showcased it to the people who love that game. When you played it, you were obviously not interested and when you took the suit off, you laid into the game. You did this in a very unfair manner because you were tired, irritated and bored, this will irritate hundreds of people who are passionate fans of the game. That you did this out of frustration is irrelevant, it still damages your business, potentially alienates fans and builds their audience hating on you.

If you play a game and you don't like it or it's performing poorly, just stop playing it, limit how much you shit on it or try to be fair in your criticisms. For instance complaining about the protagonist being sexualized is pointless because it was designed to be that way, and was aimed at young men who greatly appreciate that. It's like hating on a game cause it has a fluffy cat in it, becasue it was aimed at cat owners. Also complaining about it being a masher, is pointless because it was designed to be that way to appeal to DMC fans. Ultimately you gain nothing from talking badly about a game you know has a big fanbase in the way you keep doing, you're just growing detractors viewer numbers when you do. If you see a game you know has a large passionate fanbase and don't want to play it, just say it's not your kind of game and leave it at that. You don't need to elaborate on all the flaws with Stellar Blade or BMyth, because most of your viewers and fans of the games don't see it that way. You have enough haters already so why farm more. If chatters goad you to try talk about it more, ignore them or be more diplomatic in how you respond about it, they are baiting you to make rage content for fans of those games they can clip today.

Stellar Blade is a good game, it's just not good to you. Starfield is shit, and everyone knows it's shit. Hating on SB is bad for business (even if you think you're just being honest, that's not how it comes across), hating on Starfield is funny cause everyone agrees it's shit. One hurts your business, the other does not.

These people know how to push your buttons, and are effectively at war with you over potential and current viewers to make them hate you and watch their videos instead of yours.

If you don't intend to play Stellar Blade again, you have no reason to ever talk about it again. You've said all that needs to be said, repeating it is just giving content to your detractors to display to SB fans and make them angry.
