But he got a s00per d00per OP boss weapon, d00d. He got it from the very first enemy you see in the overworld, so it must be good! *snort* Sounds good?
Trying to guilt people into donating obviously. Not me… not a cent. Dude bitches and cries non stop, blames everything but himself. Him sucking at ER is 100% on him.
I like how for every boss he's like "the key to this boss is learning it's attacks and dodging them" like it's some big revelation. Like no shit, Dave.
“I gotta learn his patterns and roll through his attacks seems like the only way I’m going to beat him” Massive outside the box thinking.. he expects to go in and spam attack until he the boss dies.
Instead of learning the attacks he just mashes roll and when that actually works, his reflexes are so slow that he doesn't use the openings to do damage. Phil absolutely sucks at this game
Dark Shardbegger Phil, on his first phase he just spams jump+R2, on the second he spams the lightning spell, and if you hit him more than once he will recover that HP back and tell you that the game has buggy mechanics and that he shouldn't have been hit
Homie literally admits that he has a glass cannon build, complains the boss almost one shots him. Tries to heal in the midst of the bosses combo, gets hit and complains. This is what we a call a casual, homie needs thalt game jorno mode.
He saw the build and doesn't even know how to play with it, BTW theres nothing wrong with being a casual but phil claims he is a pro experimented player in souls games
yea if you are gonna be a glass cannon expect to melt cuz then you can learn to dodge well enough lol. sad thing is most glass cannon builds too will have more health than DSP
@@Openda547 it's that pride he think he has to maintain. if he wasn't so adamant about being a "lifelong gamer" he could probably clean up his act(let's face it though not likely). I mean shoot I'm around thirty and played games just as long but I'm not above saying if I had a viewer base "guys i'm not gonna lie this genre I suck at so if I suck too hard I may ask for your advice or check some tips online for next stream". Is that not an okay way to think of it or am I being too optimistic?
@@simpleguy86 There are streamers that do that. What Dave doesn't understand is that people don't give a shit about the gameplay for the most part, they care about the experience and him gatekeeping what can be talked about in his own chat (i.e. don't talk about sports, or wrestling or basically antyhing that isn't him or the game he's playing...but DON'T SPOIL!) If the streamer is really good and knowledgeable at the game, of course people are gonna watch. Hear the strats explained or why they did this v that. Look at Distortion, for instance. But there are plenty of streamers who suck ass at games but are funny as hell or just a joy to watch. No one cares that they suck because they're having fun BSing in the chat and watching the streamers antics.
@@TacoFunBox funny how that that is literally the entire point of a glass canon build, you deal massive amounts of damage but intern you have low health and defense and YOU have to be able to dodge enemy attacks but of course this is piggy we talking about
Great point. This boss is actually hard to spawn too. You have to exhaust all the dialog options with the turtle first, then you have to pass time to night, then you have to sit at the site of grace again just to despawn the turtle and get the boss to spawn. 100% used a guide. ALso for any one reading this, using a guide is fine. That's not the issue here. It's the fact that he will then lie about it, insult the viewers, and then ban anyone who disagrees.
@@ruminating1596 how did u know this? Most the people even mentioning guides have used guides. When it comes to using guide to find how to beat bosses then it's that's where the line is drawn. Other than that 90 percent of soul players have and will use guides at some point.
@@kbthegoat824 The only time I use a guide is after I've explored an area and found all I could on my own, I look up a map to see any locations I have missed.
I started using a guide once I set the erdtree on fire. I thought the game was going to end when I went into the tree when the thorns burnt away so I wanted to be sure I got everything before new game plus. Especially any of those final weapon upgrade stones. There’s always limited amounts of those in every souls game
6:42 he is completely out of stamina when he breaks the boss's poise, and cant do the riposte because of it lmao. "I COULDNT DO IT, IT WOULDNT LET ME!!"
Also at 11:20 , he hits every swing except the first one that clearly misses, but complains about his hits always missing? dude you didnt dodge anything
Lol. You guve hom too much credit. He doesn't even know what a riposte is. Dave doesn't use game mechanics like riposte etc., he just finds the biggest weapon and tries to cheese his way through every enemy.
After playing through 5 FromSoft games (multiple times each) and being well into Elden Ring, he is still befuddled by the stamina meter. The dumbest fucking guy there ever was.
I find that whenever he's fighting a difficult enemy, if he's not yelling out "I dodgeddddd" or "look at this bullshit" every chance he gets, then he most definitely looked at a guide or had his hand held through it.
hes obviously not playin blind its just annoying to everyone watching that he feels a need to lie about the smallest things like this. everyone already knows you suck at games phil, just admit it. stop needing to stroke your own ego every second of every day
@@airiakizuki5592 the irony being that he talks about how the Soulsbornekiro Ring community "gatekeeps" and needs to stroke their "e-dick," yet he feels the need to explain every hit, every misstep, every death.. he's a scumbag who will soon pay for his transgressions.. with every stream it becomes harder and harder for him to hit that goal.. soon it will be nothing.. and on that day the messiah will return to strike Phail down and lead us all back to the promise land..
“Of course he has insane range, like every boss in this game!” Well, yeah, Phil, he’s literally using telekinesis to hit you with his sword. Also, no wonder his audience doesn’t like the way he plays, who would? No originality, no creativity, just whatever he can use to cheese the game and get that money goal up as fast as possible. All because Godrick made him look like a fool, which he is. And he cannot handle that fact.
To be somewhat fair, the Bell Bearing Hunter is kinda ridiculous with his outright denial of many playstyles with his massive range and combos that go on forever. Still doesn't detract from Phil's suckage.
The funny thing is, Godrick has some of the most predictable attacks that are so easy to dodge once you learn them. That tells you a lot about good ole dave here huh
@@vahlok1426 I think the only truly bs one is the one in Caelid, at 30 vig, rl 140, and like 38% phys absorption, he would still chunk me for 1/3+ health on quick attacks, and his combos were brutal if he caught you out once, not to mention his ranged vader sword swing can be a 4+ combo. Ball Bearing Hunters are brutal and no amount of tankiness helps, they are like Crucible Knights that way. Gotta be on point the whole fight or cheese.
@@vahlok1426 If you stay at melee range, they wouldn’t use any magic combos except for super easy to parry basic attacks. The trick is to stay close and parry as many as possible so their program wouldn’t execute mid to long range combos at all.
@@user-ko8el1xt9o See, you just said the name of my Kryptonite in Soulslikes; parrying. I do, and always have sucked hard at it. It's not that I don't know timings or whatever, but it just feels like it doesn't work half the time.
Also, lmao "I've gotta learn his patterns and just roll through the attacks, seems like the only way I'm gunna beat him." Dave, that's... that's literally the game. That's the whole fucking game. Just goes to show the level of cheese and overlevel he has been utilizing. #LightningSpearAbuse
@@fmilton20 Yeah he used to put the cam on the other side if I remember right, but people were calling him out for being overleveled in Bloodbourne and in DS3 so I wasn't surprised when he moved the cam to the other side
The biggest kick in the balls here is that Phil refuses to wear the glasses even though it’s part of the tips goal but since the hat he’s wearing makes it “hard” for him to wear the glasses he doesn’t wear it. Phil is actually scamming his fans by not going through the reward system he set up.
Paying a man to put on clothes as a "reward" is an easy slap to the face of people giving him money anyway. But hey however they wanna spend it is fine it's their money even if it makes no sense to pay this man in the first place
I don’t think you see the bigger picture. We live in a time where it’s considered entertaining to put a hat and vest on, not only that but people legitimately pay this man money to see him poorly play a video game while wearing said items. What could anyone get out of that? Are people honestly this pathetically bored that they would spend money they worked for on a 40 year old narcissistic alcoholic?
@@ThugLifeBitches1 No it's to show the world not to be lol. Like nickovocado... or sum... people watch his shit look at his merch... dare I say even his onlyfans.
Yeah, he does that pretty frequently. I remember a TIHYDP where it was multiple streams in a row that he hit the vest goal and then took it off like an hour later because he was getting pissed at the game. Then he went on a rant about his fans being sadistic because he was overheating in the vest and couldn't keep it on because it was bad for his health and they were complaining.
Phil is the only person I know....who "stumbles" upon the "right" thing to beat the boss. Phil you have used guides on all the FromSoft game's no one believes you aren't using one with Elden Ring.
@@ViViDG that's what is was gonna say ViVi. Like if I streamed (hopefully in the future) if I tried a souls game and was having trouble I would either say "man this is getting me tilted or mad I might have to read some tips since i'm stuck" or better yet ask my viewers if they recommended any kind of tips. At least going about it that way you can let your audience know you aren't trying to cheese the game but instead are open to new strat so the people watching aren't bored too. Regardless Phil won't simply because he's so used to thinking by snapping back at whoever says he does this or that instead of just literally not letting trolls troll him. Im not saying i wouldn't react negatively to someone saying "lol you suck get good" if I was angry but some things you just gotta let go right?
@@simpleguy86 Every once in a while Dave used to ask audience for tips the the Souls games. And then as he read them he’d sit there and tell them why that wouldn’t work or how they’re stupid because he had already tried a tip and it didn’t work, flawlessly the first time he tried it. Good times.
I remember he was ready to quit this game bcuz he couldn’t progress at all. Now that he’s using guides and getting his hand held he loves this game LOL what a clown. And he even knows where all the items are without searching for them and upgrades all the weapons that makes this game pointless to play. But give him money!
He can’t be that naive that someone would watch his videos and think “this guy is a legit gamer with a legit business” punching tips in manually and playing like garbage.
I still am learning about streaming myself but isn't there like either bots or a function that takes the name a amount of tip/super chat/etc so the streamer doesn't have to?
in his latest stream he just totally randomly stumbled upon two of the best weapon/items in the game in the span of about 30 minutes, and of course he acts all clueless about it. what a mahran
@@pitsahat2 If you want to have a really easy time either use Night and Flame sword or Moonveil (even Blasphemous is really good but you have to beat a strong boss to get it). Especially Night and Flame is really easy to get without even having to fight. If you instead want to play the game without necessarily a OP weapon simply go with bleed as the latter does insane damage. Any status effect is really good in this game (apart poison) but bleed is the easiest to find and apply outside of incantations.
@@lavir74 Hey, thanks for the advice, mate. I will think I will try the bleed weapons first. I got the grafted sword (whhich I am really not too happy with) early and had to put almost all my points into strength. So now I need to beat the academy to respec or grind away to get the point for the the other two weapons you mentioned.
See, I use guides when I play Elden Ring, too. The only difference is that I'm not calling myself the "best gamer in the country" or a "hardcore gamer". Nothing wrong with playing a game anyway you want, but you forgo that the minute you stream for an audience. At that point, it's not your playthrough anymore, Phil.
9:32 "both my wife and I are kinda broke right now." HOW?!?! up to this point with the 180 in tips at the time he has gotten almost $1,900 in tips. NO WAY would a person without a gambling issue with a spouse be broke! It's a shame his pay piggies don't see how he plays them as fools and the continue to give him money he doesn't deserve!
He says they’re broke and can’t do anything, but then says he’s just gonna go shopping and run errands and spend a shit ton of money on take out. Okay, so he’s not broke. Because that’s how he spends every day off and it was stupid as fuck for him to say that.
Notice how he only upgraded three weapons: the flame sword he used to cheese hands, the rapier he used to cheese one boss, and the halberd he has used for 40 hours almost never changes? Total coincidence.
Genuinely surprised actually that he didn't run and get hoarstomp or moonveil. Its weird when Phil uses guides because the internet will tell you how obvious that bleed builds are the easiest form of a physical build to go with atm besides maybe spamming stomp. If DSP wanted to cheese the game in a smart way he should've just went and got the moonveil. Bosses don't dodge its weapon art. It does hunks and hunks when upgraded and scales well. Its relatively low startup and low risk. It does more poise/stagger damage then alot of big weapon R2s from said blasts that take not too much FP.
@@edwardedward842 Can't put hoarstomp on any of the OP weapons he looked up and moonveil doesn't fit his build. I've played full dex, dex/arcane, and full strength builds. Bleed builds are good but not that good unless you use some of the exploits it has. I'd say strength is the best. You get the most stagger which is OP in this game and you also get access to the best shields which are also very good in this game. Bleed builds make your dps higher on a lot of bosses but it doesn't work on some of the harder bosses and you need a good shield for the hardest boss. The best part is strength builds are way more stat-efficient so you can build more hp and endurance which are very good in this game (a 50 vig/50 endurance/50 strength build is totally possible by endgame and is very strong).
@@ickyfist What do you mean by ‘hardest boss’? The consensus is Malenia is the hardest boss and I agree, and using a shield there is a horrible idea because she heals on hit, so even a great shield will get you nowhere.
@@NuiJagaa I am talking about Malenia. You only use the shield when she does her swordgasm attack, otherwise dodge. You can reliably switch to a shield and even use barricade and block before she hits you when you see her jump in the air.
More than any previous Fromsoft game, Elden Ring punishes player habits: Mistimed rolls/Roll spam - enemies oft attack in patterns which catch you when I-frames cease Backing off - many enemies keep up the pressure Healing - enemies, particularly Crucible Knights, have at least one fast attack which covers a lot of ground Altogether, the game hammers Phil despite his abundance of cheese
You definitely have to learn if an enemy punishes aggressive behaviors or defensive behaviors. Rarely do they do both. Except the black night assassin in the catacombs, fuck that guy.
The response from a normal adult on his/her use of guides and backseating: "Yes, I use guides. I also allow backseating. So what? To each their own." The response from from Philip Paul Burnell on his use of guides and backseating: **denies the use of guides and allowing backseating, and goes on a long rant and scold his audience**
or for that matter fight fair, I know it a game but still he get so up his own butt with anger he can't take step back, breathe then laugh it off as oh crap he got me there and carry on.
"How can an enemy from down there snipe me perfectly?" it's almost like they're wizards and they're casting spells or something and Attention span isn't defined by how long you can sit somewhere staring at a wall without anything happening
I remember watching his Returnal boss fights and him beating them in 1 try. Knew exactly what to do. I knew then he was lying and looking up guides. But he pretends otherwise.
"The boss won't let me heal" Yes, the AI actually takes advantage of when you heal because its smart, the lesson to learn here is to be smarter and heal when you're safe
I love the fact that in ten years, some random will come across random clips of phil playing in these ugly ass vests and hats and genuinely think that this dude was a wheelchair that dressed like this to play games. That mixed with his complaining is such a perfect balance.
Complains about Boss range, when he's cheesing Lightning bolts... again, and still hasn't learned when to heal/how to roll. Why hasn't DSP been recruited to be a game journalist? Oh yeah, he doesn't have time outside of begging and whining constantly.
he's trying to put that into his narrative so he can "claim" "this is my first blind play-through but check out how good I am", Sure you are Phil hahaha
"my wife and I are broke right now". They still have separate accounts, LOL. I'm guessing he pays all of the bills for them and she buys whatever she wants with her money..like a fucking teenager.
Why does he care if people say he uses a guide? I've been doing that since day one since I don't have 10 hours a day to play. Doesn't make me any less of a gamer.
using guides isn't a bad thing. but the way he acts about using them is. Of course he has used a guide in every fromsoft game he has played but pretends he has "discovered" things by accident. his ego wont allow it.
He always has to find some way to be "unique" and "better" than other content creators. The funniest thing is that the morahn doesn't realize that listening to what his viewers tell him to do based on their experience and THEIR use of guides is functionally no different.
What I find most hilarious about this is that he still doesn't understand how lock on works after all these years. He assumes that just because he's locked on the game will auto correct all his swings.
He always seems on the verge of tears when he complains about the bosses or a tree or a wall or a jar of shit on the floor that prevents him from moving
Phil: "The key to this boss is to dodge and learning its attacks" Also Phil: *Does the same mistakes 70 times on a row, panic rolls non-stop, stays 10 meters away from the boss at all times despite using a melee-focused build, spams and wonders why he got punished* "I DID NOTHING WRONG, I DID EVERYTHING CORRECT!"
I wonder if he’s honestly just playing this bad all of it a sudden, or if he’s panicking and his brain just started to malfunction cause. Thefukwasthat?
Why is his health bar so small considering all he does is melee and the helmet he's wearing boosts sorcery but makes you take more damage.....what...what is his build exactly? Considering all he does is jump attacks he should just be doing a str build
Glass cannon build and using Lighting Spear to cheese most of the fights which if that was the case he should’ve just made a sorcerer/Faith build since those are incredibly OP in this game.
He leveled for the tree sentinel weapon and just went “eh if i keep leveling these ill be fine” and didnt bother to look up a more comprehensive guide beside his go find stuff here guide lol
You must be confusing phil to someone who actually reads and understands item descriptions and even remotely knows what they are doing.. this is the guy who spent almost 30 minutes in half life 2 trying to figure out how to crouch jump and failing even after people told him how to and then went on claiming his copy of the game had bugged jumping mechanics..
@@elitereptilian200 isn't it amazing that a single copy of a digitally downloaded game could somehow, inexplicably, be the only one to have a detrimental bug?
He literally complains that he lost viewers while he gone for 10 minutes. What level of narcissism thinks anyone will stare at a screen with nothing happening for that long?
I went to the caves underleveled as fk and I knew straight away DSP would hate it. He did not disappoint, somehow though he had a harder time with his build than I did with my basic long sword and scythe which bounces off them
I remember back in the day phil would need to use the bathroom when he's having problems with a game and come back and the game would be a walk in the park.
Tbf I think taking a 10 minute break from getting your ass kicked is usually a recipe for success. It seems common enough that returning after some time, be it a few minutes or day, is enough time for the player to digest what they learned and the git gud. Im sure Philbert is looking shit up, but I dont think an enemy's moveset is often something you can get a feel for without getting annihilated by it. But then again this dude only has like 3 or 4 combos 🤷🏼♂️
@@DA-uo5hz I'm not talking about just boss fight. Like when he enter the door behind that big Egyptian boss he's like oh I wonder if there's a grace here (which there is) and then he's like I guess you can talk to this guy? When I went in there as soon as I saw that guy I had my shield ready spamming attacks it wasn't til I realized I couldn't lock on him that I knew he wasn't an enemy.
People usually don’t like to hear what you were doing in the restroom. Just excuse yourself saying you have to use the lavatory/restroom/washroom/bathroom/facilities. What’s so hard about that? Then again it’s the same payaso that burps and snorts right into the microphone like the GROSERO he is.
Watching him stand in front of a boss while walking into him while trying to heal while the boss is charging up an attack smashes him is some of the best content. Talk about the definition of insanty.
He really needs glasses if he thinks he's hitting the centipede enemies... They were interrupting his swings because they're faster than him but he sees it like he's swinging and going through them smdh
11:23 what is actually drunk? he swung 3 times, once he was interrupted and the other 2 times he hit the enemy you can see the health go down, but he claims the enemy isn't getting hit? He just defaults to complaints how its unfair,
Haha, how can he be this weak? One of my gripes with Elden Ring is that you get so overpowered too easily with all the souls (runes) the game showers upon you for simply exploring and lazily killing enemies from atop your horse as you ride past them trying to get anywhere.
You can do that, but it would take very long and is very inefficient. You certainly will not get "showered" with runes doing that. There are far better ways of getting OP early that are arguably faster but certainly not lazy. It's also not just about runes. Not exactly a gripe IMO, the game gives you tons of freedom. Later game enemies and bosses will still givenyou a tough fight, though.
@@loubloom1941 The exploring will net a lot of runes as long pick up things and clear caves/tombs/mines and slicing down a giant/dragon/packs of vulgar militiamen or similar on your way to something takes little to no effort and is a few thousand runes here and there for just passing by and it all adds up.
Yeah I agree. Im like 110 hours in, about to finish the capital at like level 125 and I feel way too high level. Exploring really beefs you up big time. My only counter balance up to this point was having low vigor (mohg at 28 vigor was wild 😂). I actually have to go out of my way to not use my runes to level up. I never farmed souls or anything, just happened from trying to crawl into every nook and cranny in the game.
I can give him a break on using guides for this one; it’s a big game with a lot of stuff that’s easy to miss. I personally gave up on the “no guides” mentality after about 4 hours of no progress because I have better things to do than mindlessly wander around staring at a horse’s ass. What I cannot give him a break on is his shitty attitude after 14 years.
11:37. Wow. WOW. He has to honestly believe that’s how that just played out for him to be so quick to say those attacks all hit. Especially since he doesn’t wear his glasses.
The hotboxes on this game are super fair and accurate btw, one of the best on all from soft games. Phil is just salty the game isn't cheating for him with the hotboxes because he's using a huge sword that has a bad angle of attack +it's a curved sword so it has bad range. 12:35 if you look closely Phil only swang his sword once into the enemy the other times it got interrupted, but nah the game hotboxes that suck not the guy holding forward and pressing attack hoping for it to work
i cant belive i have to do this but, if he wants to use a guide... he should, the game is amazing, but diferent people enjoy the same experience in diferent ways, there are possibly hundreds of thousands of people that, if given a guide, would probably have loved the souls series, but because they got overwhelmed, they just hated the experience.
@@americanjohnny4814 i see, i dont really follow dsp, i know who he is, but i have no patience to care about the guy. still, i do see alot of people push the "you should experience the game blind" as if that's the only way people are allowed to enjoy the game.
I've never seen a grown ass man fail so hard at a video game. He has all this damage to deal and has no idea what to do with it. No defensive maneuvers, ignores cues that another attack is coming, trying to trade damage, tries to spam magic, and to him all of that is the games fault. I truly hope he fights Malenia. He's gonna get melted
The fact I beat this boss on my second try lol. He ran my shit when he was low health and I learned how to dodge every attack, then I kicked it’s ass because he’s so damn slow with his windups.
I'm surprised he has as many viewers as he does. All he does in every game is complain how it's not his fault that he's dying. It's the trees fault, I couldn't see, the fight is unfair, etc etc. It's a Souls game, we all die a bunch until we learn the fight.
7:50 he expected the enemy to make a specific move in response of the jump-attack. Newsflash Phil: this isn't fighting game and AI don't abide to framedata.
