MetalShadowX There's the one where you have to dive and pull up and glide through that narrow archway over the water... that one is legitimately hard. But this guy can't even do the basic drills without dozens of tries.
As far as action adventures go, Arkham City must be the most forgiving and stream-lined as it can possibly get -- without being too intrusive: Button prompts as soon as the game suspects you of having forgotten a game mechanic, voice overs thoughout every step of the story with clear instructions, even an encyclopedic tutorial within the menus that has all the answers just in case there's something you're forgetting. And yet, DSP still can't figure out the easiest of tasks. I hope any dev watching this understands that this is not the average consumer to be considered when designing a game.
***** and that's why I liked playing Arkham Origins on my Wii U cause it's not as overly simplified in the combat. If you mess up the timing enemies can give ya a good what for.
Well, Phil forgot how to use line-launcher in Arkham Asylum and spent over 30 minutes figuring this out. ua-cam.com/video/I-_GB5wgxPs/v-deo.html The best thing is that game actually shows the player first how line-launcher works. Phil apparently forgot it in span of minutes.
The first time I played this game I had gotten out of the hospital after surgery. I was on killer pain pills and barely able to comprehend anything because I was in pain. I still did a thousand times better than DSP
I did exactly the same thing at the end of last May I had a surgery and actually just this week after a kidney surgery last Thursday. I'm sitting there/here messed up on percocet and pain, with no sleep, thinking "man I should play better." Then I see this and realize even in the state I am in that I didn't make any of these mistakes. I mainly had/have issues with riddler stuff occasionally when messed up like this. But then again we all pay attention the game and read on screen prompts instead of talking through and skipping them all lol. Had to reply after seeing this. I was thinking the same thing in the same situation.
The Catwoman parts in the vault were the most painful for me. I mean...I was literally flabbergasted by the stupidity. He didn't even know what "return" means. Obviously return to the security room means go back to where you came from. Lol.
Lots of us fail at certain points in games. Sometimes in easier parts. But when we retry the parts we failed at, we tend to not do what we tried to do before, or be more careful when it comes to stealth.
This game completely exposes DSP and shows how terrible he is at video games. You can literally see when he mashes buttons and Batman does the punch or block animation. He has absolutely no patience or finesse. Doesn't learn from his mistakes.
The beginning of this is like in Arkham Asylum when it took him 30 minutes to figure out to use the line launcher to get across the Arkham mansion once Poison Ivy took over. The instructions are there are the screen to dive bomb and then pull up to gain altitude. And of course he wanders right up to the bad guys and questions how it is they managed to see him. It's called stealth. Something DSP doesn't understand.
Seriously, if the game's costume reflected the damage the player actually takes, Batman would like like he does at the end of the game by the first 10 minutes of being played by Phil.
It says words like "back" and "return" and he doesn't guess that he needs to go to a location he has already visited... who the hell has ever said "Let's go BACK to the new place we've never been to before" or "Let's return to that totally new location we've never visited"?
Former profighting game player? Yeah, 26:57 onwards begs to differ. He can't block even though they telegraph more than Samuel Morse, can't use any weapons or special moves, and doesn't realize that you can block or stun the Riddler informant without knocking him out.
You can even see him attack and counter the Riddler informant several times (which I assume he does by accident), but even when he does that he doesn't stop and think "Oh hey, I just attacked the Riddler informant and he didn't get knocked out! Maybe he has as much health as these other grunts!" And it really irritates me that he keeps shitting on the game and calling it bad, when I played this, I loved it.
he is terrible, but at least he trained for the game instead of whining, maybe the only time for his entire life, he winned because other forfaited, then they talked trash...acting dsp style, i hate him, but that only time he trained and win, it's easy to talk trash about a "poorly made port"(at least you showed your source) after being forfait. i know it's 3 years but let him this only moment of glory.
I really need to stop watching these, but I can't for some reason, it's like getting a snake bite, if the snake's poison was cocaine, it hurts, but then you feel good, but it will cause so many health risks in the long term.
Lol, he completed that whole Zsasz telephone conversation without realizing he had to track the signal!! I will never understand the fundamentals driving this being....
he just lacks some common sense i was like 6 or 7 aswell and done it easily looks like he was in a coma for 30 yrs of his life lmao and forgot everything even when he was playing fighting games he had the same attitude
Phil logic, if something doesn't work, try it again... if it still doesn't work, blame the game and keep doing the same thing over and over and over again til you get so pissed off you quit.
It's a good thing Phil isn't ACTUALLY Batman. Otherwise the Joker would be like "Oh, it's BatPhil? Send a group of mentally deficient 6 year olds after him. We'll have the world conquered by lunchtime."
Who in their right mind intentionally steps out in front of multiple armed enemies under the impression of having a chance? And how is he still this bad?
BobSpotOn That's a long act. 3-4 channels, 6 years on youtube, and over 30,000 videos all acting exactly like this. I don't think it's possible that it's an act.
Does DSP never use takedowns in these arkham games? Half the trouble he has with large fights is that he doesn't reduce the numbers of enemies quickly with TD's.
DarkSydePhil is not a scrub, as calling him a scrub is an insult to all scrubs. He is a stain. I chose this term because when you have a stain in clothes, dishes, etc, you can clean it up, which can be seen as defeating it, by scrubbing. Also, this video is showing me death screens I've never seen before. That is testament to how much Phil sucks. And you'd think that after getting smacked while doing it 5 times in a row he'd stop doing the ground pound in a crowd.
I’ve seen a lot of Phil’s gameplay by this point and I can honestly say that this game is one of his most shameful displays. He’s totally incompetent and even though this is old gameplay, he’s probably only gotten worse. The only difference is nowadays he has stream chat to hold his hand constantly.
When I saw the video title I more or less automatically assumed there would be some crazy amount of time spent on the AR training. Wasn't disappointed.
As a guy who’s played all of the Arkham games and perfected the Predator/Combat stuff in each game, this is incredibly painful to watch. I picked up Asylum on launch day when I was 10, and I knew mostly how to do everything. Same with the other games. The thing that kills me though is how he does the combat, I scream at my screen because of just how bad he is at the combat.
@ 1:19:44 DSP says, "There's a difference between a security room and control room!" So, security rooms don't have surveillance monitors and related equipment? Not to mention @ 1:15:28 he reads the objective out loud "RETURN to the security room" (as in go back to where you started); this is when having a competent 5th grade reading comprehension pays off in dividends, Phil.
If DSP were a garbage man he would take a garbage can, empty it into the driver's side of the truck, and then file a complaint to his manager about the driver yelling at Phil.
This dude was legit playing man Arkham city. He never once unless forced to use any of Batman gadgets and moves that make him Batman. Just mash xxxxxxxxxxxx and fucking let go of the glide button when you’re tryna dive bomb. Just wow.
It's one thing to suck at games. I suck at games and I still have fun. It's another to suck at games and insist that it's the game's fault that you're bad at it. Arkham City was basically designed for people who suck at games so if you suck at Arkham City that says a lot.
I think this game would be hard without using the instant takedown or gadgets or even countering... good thing for me I try different strategies and I learn from my mistakes.
I would like to see him try the AR training where you have to glide through the tunnel. Poor guy is gonna go through the whole game without the grapnel boost.
at like 20 mins in the video he has detective mode on and he gets shot through a window bc ig hes too stupid to know what a window looks like in detective mode
1:08:20 - "And a CAR runs over me from outside of the screen I can't see and I DIE! That's fucking fair!" Well to be "fair", it's not like being able to see if coming helped you the previous six or so times you were run over.
Catchphrase for this playthrough: Augmented Reality Training Activated. Augmented Reality Training Failed.
I'll admit, that happened to me a lot too... In the *advanced* AR training segments :/
MetalShadowX There's the one where you have to dive and pull up and glide through that narrow archway over the water... that one is legitimately hard. But this guy can't even do the basic drills without dozens of tries.
Vicki Vale: No offense, Batman, but in case you didn't notice, there are people shooting at us.
Haha, even the game has no respect for Phil.
This guys tombstone is going to read "he died, he tried to press Y, but it wouldn't let him." Haha
Or "it was the game's fault." Lol
"Here lies DSP. There was nothing he could do."
Or: "I'm dead, this is fucking bullshit!"
In Possibilities lmao good one man.
Or "its didn't explain it" lol

This Is How You DON'T Develop A Game!
@@judahsoremy9857?
lol God of war 4
@50:54:"No offense, Batman, but in case you hadn't noticed, there are people shooting at us." *charges directly into sniper fire*
What I like the most is how he doesn't use stealth at all, being batman. He just walks into places like he's the fucking punisher.
The ironic part if he ever played the Punisher game he'd probably suck at THAT too.
Why is he doing predator rooms in detective mode while walking around in full sight of everyone? He doesn't seem to understand the basics of the game.
I did the same and it worked, you're suppose to do predator rooms in detective mode duh o.0
Andre Ivanovich But you aint supposed to walk around in the open
2:30
"Augmented Reality Training: Activated"
....uh oh.
DID HE JUST ASK WHAT PROTOCOL TEN WAS OVER HALFWAY INTO THE GAME
I mean after all it wasn't really the central part of the game lol
@Fatty Drake you forgot the dramatic "sigh" in the middle of that line!
The first time I played this game I had gotten out of the hospital after surgery. I was on killer pain pills and barely able to comprehend anything because I was in pain.

Had to reply after seeing this. I was thinking the same thing in the same situation.
I don't find that hard to believe.
Uhh, good for you?
I had shoulder surgery last year, my arm was in a cast, and I did better than this guy.
Don't get me wrong I don't like DSP. But good for you, want a cookie?
The Catwoman parts in the vault were the most painful for me. I mean...I was literally flabbergasted by the stupidity. He didn't even know what "return" means. Obviously return to the security room means go back to where you came from. Lol.
i love it how when he dies the villians are just there to just annoy him that much more making him more pissed just golden
"The air conditioner covers the sound of my voice"
I'm sure the neighbors appreciate that more than you know Phil...

Doesn't this comment apply to every game he plays?

he’d be wheelchair Batman because he just fell instead of dive bombing
The most amazing thing to me is that he played every game in the Arkham series and somehow never got any better at it.
It says words like "back" and "return" and he doesn't guess that he needs to go to a location he has already visited... who the hell has ever said "Let's go BACK to the new place we've never been to before" or "Let's return to that totally new location we've never visited"?
25:44 "wow i had no clue I was supposed to be tracking this!!"
it literally says in the middle of the screen to track the call
u can tell during combat that phil mashes the buttons to attack that's why he has trouble counterattacking
I'll be doing a giveaway of my Arkham City collectors edition without the game.
I think I am forgetting how to divebomb because I'm watching this video...
Former profighting game player? Yeah, 26:57 onwards begs to differ. He can't block even though they telegraph more than Samuel Morse, can't use any weapons or special moves, and doesn't realize that you can block or stun the Riddler informant without knocking him out.

"telegraph more than Samuel Morse"
god damn
he is terrible, but at least he trained for the game instead of whining, maybe the only time for his entire life, he winned because other forfaited, then they talked trash...acting dsp style, i hate him, but that only time he trained and win, it's easy to talk trash about a "poorly made port"(at least you showed your source) after being forfait. i know it's 3 years but let him this only moment of glory.
I really need to stop watching these, but I can't for some reason, it's like getting a snake bite, if the snake's poison was cocaine, it hurts, but then you feel good, but it will cause so many health risks in the long term.
this is the weirdest sentence i've ever read yet its so relatable at the same time
You mean it's like a train wreck you can't look away from.
Someone please tell me this is an act...how on earth can someone be so inept?
That's something I'm still asking myself. As well as how he's being PAID for this.
Lol, he completed that whole Zsasz telephone conversation without realizing he had to track the signal!!
I will never understand the fundamentals driving this being....
On that Dive Bomb part at the begginning, my 7 year old cousin did that first try. lol
he just lacks some common sense i was like 6 or 7 aswell and done it easily looks like he was in a coma for 30 yrs of his life lmao and forgot everything even when he was playing fighting games he had the same attitude
Sure yall did
*be batman
*not using gadgets
...
He’s man
The Vicki Vale one is infuriating.
+Kristopher Brewer haha that rant though
I've never seen someone die to a Riddler Informant. Wow, congratulations, my dud. You are special.
As someone who has 100% in both the story and the Riddler challenges i am literally ashamed he played the same game as me
100% in the Riddler challenges?
Why are you not more famous than this?
nigel dixie
Wdym, everyone has done everything by now
I'm figuratively ashamed of him.
I swear, does this guy ALWAYS talk for five minutes before he plays a game? Ugh, Phil loves to hear the sound of his own wimpy voice, huh?
Phil shops at Game Bugs R Us.
Phil logic, if something doesn't work, try it again... if it still doesn't work, blame the game and keep doing the same thing over and over and over again til you get so pissed off you quit.
"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
LOL even Einstein knew people like DSP are crazy.
It's a good thing Phil isn't ACTUALLY Batman. Otherwise the Joker would be like "Oh, it's BatPhil? Send a group of mentally deficient 6 year olds after him. We'll have the world conquered by lunchtime."
HAH
XD
Lmao. Phil is like that fake Batman in The Dark Knight.
DSPBatman might actually be able to kill the joker....by making him laugh himself to death.
Who in their right mind intentionally steps out in front of multiple armed enemies under the impression of having a chance? And how is he still this bad?
He's not. This is all an act
I agree.
BobSpotOn
That's a long act. 3-4 channels, 6 years on youtube, and over 30,000 videos all acting exactly like this. I don't think it's possible that it's an act.
Is it just me or do these videos get harder to watch when it's a game you enjoyed playing and why dose he use detective mode so much
Does DSP never use takedowns in these arkham games? Half the trouble he has with large fights is that he doesn't reduce the numbers of enemies quickly with TD's.
Combo takedowns I mean.
@@MrRjh63 Gotta put together a combo to execute a takedown lol.
*casually walks off the side of a crane*
"WHAT, I DIDN'T GO UP"
lol, just wow
Phil you just make it too easy to poke fun at you
1:08:47 "You think these people would have learned by now" DSP's motto...
I didn't know it was possible to fail so much at this game. This game is easy.
Its easy. I just wished there are more gadgets I can use that don't give away my position during the predator encounters.
Batman sure can take a lot of gunfire. Almost like Phil's playing on easy. And man, does he need to.
Wait a minute,he's doing the AR missions, but he doesn't know how to freaking dive? This is gonna be priceless.
"I pressed Y!" The playthrough.
When he complains about the fighting, honestly, fighting endless dudes was the best part.
Don't drink while you're pregnant people.
I've been waiting for this playthrough in particular.
*grabs popcorn
Holy shit, when he fucks up at one of the most casual games out there, you realise DSP is basically a semi-functional potato.
"there's a difference between a security room and a control room!"
What, you thought the vault was the security room? Lmao
DarkSydePhil is not a scrub, as calling him a scrub is an insult to all scrubs. He is a stain. I chose this term because when you have a stain in clothes, dishes, etc, you can clean it up, which can be seen as defeating it, by scrubbing.

You know what the definition of insanity is ...?
Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. DSP in a nutshell.
Throwing your own shit on the wall and going "GUURRR!!"
And no, Vaas didn't not came up with that.
I’ve seen a lot of Phil’s gameplay by this point and I can honestly say that this game is one of his most shameful displays. He’s totally incompetent and even though this is old gameplay, he’s probably only gotten worse. The only difference is nowadays he has stream chat to hold his hand constantly.
When you realise that the AI of the mooks is smarter than this guy
the button mashing....jesus christ, he doesn't even go for combos he just mashes the attack button
this guy needs to stop doing playthroughs , this is ridiculous.
When I saw the video title I more or less automatically assumed there would be some crazy amount of time spent on the AR training. Wasn't disappointed.
As a guy who’s played all of the Arkham games and perfected the Predator/Combat stuff in each game, this is incredibly painful to watch.

The thing that kills me though is how he does the combat, I scream at my screen because of just how bad he is at the combat.
It's funny though lol, I'll admit
Yeah that part in Asylum when he gets the line launcher and spends 30 minutes figuring out what to do was painful.
This video's tl;dr:
"Augmented reality training activated"
"Augmented reality training failed"
"Augmented reality training activated" ad nauseam.
@ 1:19:44 DSP says, "There's a difference between a security room and control room!" So, security rooms don't have surveillance monitors and related equipment? Not to mention @ 1:15:28 he reads the objective out loud "RETURN to the security room" (as in go back to where you started); this is when having a competent 5th grade reading comprehension pays off in dividends, Phil.
His constant use of detective vision is hurting my brain.
I mean it's useful
My God, he makes this game look so much more difficult than it really is!
LMAO I swear Phil makes Batman look so bad
I completely agree. Batman is so ashamed of him. Lol.
ProjectMasterpiece Haha Ikr
No. Rocksteady made Batman look bad.
Dr Ivo Robotnik You don't think Rocksteady did a good job on the Arkham games?
Asylum? Yes.
City? Okay.
Origin wasn't made by them
Knight? Shit.
If DSP were a garbage man he would take a garbage can, empty it into the driver's side of the truck, and then file a complaint to his manager about the driver yelling at Phil.
3:26 I don't think that's how you're supposed to do that.
6:31 Batman doesn't know how to Batman.
It's so beautiful to me that the death screens makes him even saltier
Wow. If he's this bad at the dive bomb training, I can't wait to see what happens when he gets to the part with Ra's where you have to dive bomb.
I pretend Phil actually is Batman and getting his ass kicked. This is the cure for depression( well my depression)
Oh god, I forgot about this setup
That’s was God awful. I can’t believe someone would die to simple goon fights.
"Thugs".
Bugged training mechanics anybody?
This dude was legit playing man Arkham city. He never once unless forced to use any of Batman gadgets and moves that make him Batman. Just mash xxxxxxxxxxxx and fucking let go of the glide button when you’re tryna dive bomb. Just wow.
On top of that he wasted what 100 bucks on the collector edition too. Probably never used the dlc he got with it lmao.
Oh great. R'as al ghoul's trial. NEED to use the dive bomb and he doesn't know how to use it. This will be painful to watch.
DSP and iJustine : Bottom of the barrel let's players
No Ijustine at least doesn't claim to be "one of the best gamers in the country" and think if it doesn't work it's bugged.
His let’s plays are ResidentSleeper 😴💤😴💤😴💤😴💤😴💤😴💤
They do make for good sleeping khantent 😂
When I first started batman arkham city: original or remaster my first points were to get my health to max before anything else.
Also. He says he thinks that a gadget would help him to get to the phones... yea the one you will not get because you won't do the at challenges.
thank you for uploading this I never could bring myself to suffer the full playthrough when I saw him failing at the dive bomb...ugh so horrible...
How is it he played the first game and still has no idea what the hidden question marks are for?
This makes so glad I'm at least adequately competent at this game. This guys is a literal joke XD
Ever need a moral boost? Watch TIHYDP, because we all know that we can not that bad at games.
If I knew that he would be going to any event, I would bring my t-shirt that says ( I'm with stupid ).
This guy is like the AVGN, expect this game doesn't suck, he does (big time)
So true
Why does he stay in detective mode constantly I mastered this game in 1 day had to use det. mode very little
He should have been named DAP, "dumb ass Phil". >.>
Oh, not "Dat ass Phil"? Hehe..
You can’t spell sped without dsp.
1:32:42 who glide kicks during stealth sections in this game?
wow this guy really sucks i've never had any trouble in combat AT ALL
It's one thing to suck at games. I suck at games and I still have fun. It's another to suck at games and insist that it's the game's fault that you're bad at it. Arkham City was basically designed for people who suck at games so if you suck at Arkham City that says a lot.
40:20 it tells him how to dive bomb yet he somehow doesn't see it, next time read when something pops up on your screen snort burnell.
DSP is the "Barry off Eastenders" of gaming
MichaelLeroi eastenders is a load of shit
Game: Use the WayneTech satellite to triangulate Zsazs' position.
Phil: I was supposed to do that? The game never explains!!!
I think this game would be hard without using the instant takedown or gadgets or even countering... good thing for me I try different strategies and I learn from my mistakes.
Good God, you remind me of myself playing Tetris as a 3-year old dude
Holy shit, the leaked footage for Knight has better quality than DSP's videos.
I never knew someone could get fucked up by arkham thugs so much. Phil is a treasure
The Saddest Display of Freeflow combat I've ever seen
I would like to see him try the AR training where you have to glide through the tunnel. Poor guy is gonna go through the whole game without the grapnel boost.
1:04:06 "Yeaaahh" gets destroyed by a car in mid air, lmao.
For someone who is so bad he never uses detective mode.
at like 20 mins in the video he has detective mode on and he gets shot through a window bc ig hes too stupid to know what a window looks like in detective mode
1:08:20 - "And a CAR runs over me from outside of the screen I can't see and I DIE! That's fucking fair!"
Well to be "fair", it's not like being able to see if coming helped you the previous six or so times you were run over.
Derpman: Arkham City
I hate DSP...
