I know that the Internet is flooded with people doing games on sites like YouTube and Twitch, but I want to put forward an argument for supporting DarksydePhil (DSP) for your gaming content.
DSP is one of the first professional gamers to become active in recording and uploading their playthroughs, starting before the big boom of the 2010s. As a result, he has a ton of experience in gaming and entertaining an audience. He has made an audience of thousands over the course of this time, with more and more people joining his channel each day. Arguably, he has had a massive influence on the LP scene, and has had clear influence on the development of such names as PewDiePie, Markiplier, Two Best Friends Play, and Jacksepticeye.
DSP provides a unique persona with a lot of depth for his commentary. Frequently he will joke about games being unfair or specifically working against him, but these are part of the character he plays. A small community has become convinced that he isn't skilled as a gamer, but DSP did spend several years within the incredibly competitive professional Street Fighter and Fighting Game tournament communities.
I invite you all to check out DSP and check out his videos on his primary channel, as well as his edited content channel at KO Gaming. I haven't seen anyone provide the level and amount of content that he has in gaming since he arguably started the concept of Let's Play. He is someone who really loves gaming, and that's something that I think some of us here on Sup Forums can appreciate. If you really enjoy his work, be sure to check out his official forum community and even consider donating to his Patreon campaign. Every little bit helps, and if everyone who subscribed just gave a dollar a month, he would be all set to keep providing new content for every conceivable major release for the next several years to come.
By the way, any fans here who haven't voted on his best moments of 2016 polls yet, make sure to head to his forums and do that soon. They might still be open for final votes.

DSP is really horrible at games and annoying, and never admits his own mistakes or tries to improve whatsoever.
Robert Long
You realize you sound like a beta orbiter right now, right? You're probably a cuck, too.
Isaiah Myers
No, I just really think his is a channel worth watching and spreading around. Sorry if you are too bitter to see that.
Easton Baker
did dsp post this? tmw you don't know where england is
Xavier Green
Well I'm convinced, DSP is BASED
Jack Thomas
Please don't post that. That moment was really dumb of him, but he's moved past it. No point digging it back up.
Julian Ward
DSP is a whiny subhuman who has the nerve to go on stream and call his viewers lazy for not watching a full grown man play a Pokemon game. youtube.com/watch?v=ZxHKVWQk8Bo&t=187s
He also has the nerve to make an hour long video begging for money a few months after he spent nearly $1,400 to stay at a hotel that's half an hour away from his home so he could play Pokemon Go and watch TV on "vacation". DSP is an insufferable faggot, neck yourself, OP.
Andrew Young
>he's moved past it He bragged about people subbing to him on Twitch just to get an emoticon that shows him making that face. He is anything but past it and would do it again on cam in a heartbeat if it meant more drama and views.
Jace Nguyen
How did DSP get so many subscribers? Like, how the fuck?
Jaxon Perez
He uploaded almost 100 videos a week, no joke. It was almost purely quantity over quality in the early days. He has over 180,000 subs and still has videos that don't break 1k, pretty hilarious.
Jaxon Ward
>KOgaming >It isn't Kevin Owens playing fun games with other WWE wrestlers
Dylan Powell
I'm still amazed that people sub to him and even donate to his Patreon and the P3 FES playthrough was funded entirely through Patreon then he ragequit because Nyx on easy mode was too fucking hard. How the fuck do you ragequit on easy mode? Like nigga just fuse a demon with null charm and close your eyes.
Charles Sanchez
DSP doesn't even play video games.
He just goes into autopilot and pushes the buttons until the credits roll. He doesn't absorb a single grain of skill or knowledge of any game he ever plays. He will swear and mock the game once his brain realizes his progress is being slowed by any difficulty or unskippable dialogue. Rinse and repeat.
Can't entirely blame him, with how many hours a week he uploads.
Dominic Brown
I've subscribed to his main channel to thumb down every single video he uploads. I also use adblock.
Ayden Turner
>watch a Youtube video on how hard he failed during 2016 >begs on Patreon for money then spends it on Hotel Rooms and Takeaway Food >gets paid over a grand to play Persona 3 and rage quits on the final boss >blames viewers for being "too lazy" to watch his streams >masturbates on live on camera and cums in under 2 minutes >apparently he's doing badly once again due to nobody wanting to watch such a piece of shit >remember the shilling around a year ago on Sup Forums with a dozen "Is he Our Guy Sup Forums" threads a day >"I bet I'll start seeing those threads again, wouldn't surprise me if DSP is behind them himself" >this thread
Angel Ross
holy shit get a life
Andrew Gutierrez
Look where you at nigga
Easton Rivera
>Sup Forums - e-celeb blogs and youtube links
Camden Kelly
DSP is bad ass based motherfucer and you dweeb autistic retards are NOTHING
Go back to watching your childrens youtube stars like markiplier and whoever the fuckk, I don't pay attention, cause i'm not a faggot like you mentally stunted nerds
Colton Wood
he would upload entire games within 24-48 hours of release. there weren't too many options for people wanting to see what a game was about
He was a little better before he started making money on youtube, he just played games for fun instead of whining about views and subs. Heavy Rain is his best playthrough and is bearable.
Parker Martinez
The videos would get more views if there weren't a million of them every week. Nobody is going to watch ten different videos when they're all just the same thing
Blake Ross
He's atrocious now, it's all incredibly forced and he's trying really hard to be that edgy/cranky gamer he knows makes him money.
Carson Jenkins
But then he'd have to do some sort of editing, and we all know he's too retarded for that. It's funny that he crawled back to Twitch a month after saying he never would, but at least that's a better format for him.
Julian Lopez
You realize you sound like a beta orbiter right now, right? You're probably a cuck, too.
Samuel Ortiz
He just pretends to be retarded, right? There's no way someone could be so stupid and learn nothing.
Jeremiah Martin
haha yeah totally he is BASED
Dylan Gutierrez
he probably made it a character since the "this is how you dont play" meme gave him a ton of views. people love getting mad at him for some reason, so they keep watching his videos.
I almost feel bad for him, it's going to end soon and he'll have to find a job but he hasn't worked in a decade so what will he even do
Brayden Anderson
>linking to his videos
Fuck off, Phil.
Sebastian Ortiz
WOW DUDE
Adrian Johnson
you know what to do
Thomas Foster
>Tried to turn it into a Twitch emote >Twitch rejected it >Retard re-submitted it and just renamed it "roar" and didn't understand why it got rejected again
Logan Hall
>playing fighting game >can hear him hitting buttons >gets caught in a massive >"WOW WHAT THE FUCK I WAS BLOCKING!"
John Watson
why reject it? there's literally dozens of "-gasm" emotes with real orgasm faces and anime/hentai faces including a global emote
Christopher King
Friendly reminder.
Wyatt Parker
If DSP really was smart he would actually try to improve his"product" and his gaming skills. It takes him a while to grasp game functions even when the game spells it out for him. He played MGS3 like a run and gun action game and skipped everything the codec was telling him.
Caleb Rogers
if you read the opening post past the first line you're a retard to be honest
reply to this post if you're smart and didn't read
Colton Hall
Had he paid some schmuck to edit his videos and owned up to the TIHYDP mantra he'd be rolling it it by now.
Nathan Lewis
he doesn't need to improve anything he's perfect and BASED. it's just his fans that are being petulant, entitled assholes about everything, his content has been consistently good. He doesn't need to stoop to lame gimmicks and become another fake youtube personality aka whore to get viewers. He'll be a man and not sacrifice his soul for youtube fame and fortune.
