Nazanir 08/25/19 6:27:16 AM #89:	What is also fascinating about Phil is the way he talks, and more specifically, the words he uses. Also, know that he is very much aware of what he is doing. For the longest time he is using the term "reactionary" when combining it with his gameplay. It doesn't mean what Phil believes it means though. It's an exclusively political term: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reactionary It's also hilarious how he uses the term "interactive", because livesreaming is per definition interactive, because viewers can react to the streamer, and vice versa. However, Phil uses this to amplify the idea that he is someone who is invested in his viewers, as a way to make them feel special and of course, ultimately get more money out of his viewers. "Adult" is another one of my favourites. I guarantee you, that if you have a conversation with anyone else in the entire fucking world, no one will use the word adult in the way Phil does. He does this, I believe, to give more credibility to what he does. He is 37 years old, but feels the need to underline constantly that he is an adult, and that others do not understand what such a life is like. It's easier to do that, than to admit that you sit in a man-cave all day playing video games. Funnily enough, it shows his disconnect between him and his audience, the people he desperately wants to "interact" with. Speaking of man-cave, his "office". Because lets be honest, it's just a room, full of gamer stuff (nothing wrong with that per say), but he defends and justifies it by calling it an office, giving validity to his "job", while in reality he just sits on his ass all day, doing fuck all. It's funny to me how he has this compulsive need to justify himself. Any and all other streamers know what they are doing, and run with it. Fuck, they can even laugh about it. They know they are just playing games. But Phil needs to justify everything he does, lest he be diminished in who he is. His need to justify everything he does, ties in neatly with all the excuses he makes when in actually he fucks up, rather than it being the game's fault. Again afraid of being diminished, his ego is so fragile he will do everything to protect it. Lying is a routine, and twisting facts so he doesn't like like a complete scumbag is paramount to him. The thing is, I don't think he can stop. He has been doing this for 11 years now, isolating himself from the rest of the world, shutting down anyone even remotely critical of him. You can tell how different he is from today, compared with when he just was jobless and started out making more content for Youtube. Granted, his horrible gaming skills were evident back then, but how he treated the people he relies on to make ends meet is vastly different today. They are nothing more than ATMs to him, only useful till they are empty. --- XboX GT/Steam/Wii-U - Nazanir <cite>Nazanir posted [p:926519486] in DSPGaming ...
