That quote is at 27:28 but the segment they're doing starts earlier than that, it like starts with PL, then goes to Tekken 7 then starts back up at like 22:00. They did mention the apology later.can I get a time stamp?
PL: "Subscribe to me and maybe I'll explain frame data to you."You would learn more from watching PL but he's not a nice guy that will gladly explain the definition of 'Safe' and what frame data is to viewers every 5 minutes
Then he needs to embrace that and just stream if he likes. It's cool to do the whole Twitch and YouTube thing as a secondary thing to provide more content to your followers, or "fans" (if that's what you want to call them), but I find it odd that someone with PL's tournament and competitive success that he's seemingly prioritizing becoming an internet personality rather than just sticking to what he's proven to be good at, which is playing and competing, not streaming.You would learn more from watching PL but he's not a nice guy that will gladly explain the definition of 'Safe' and what frame data is to viewers every 5 minutes
He's becoming (or has already become) way too Hollywood to appreciate anything that you mentioned. :/Then he needs to embrace that and just stream if he likes.

I mean he has more followers/viewers than a lot of the little people who devote a shitload of their time to streaming and producing content. He has more followers than well-known people like Fatal1ty just off the top of my head. He should just be grateful for the views/follows he does get and just simply focus on the game.
It's partly, maybe mostly, the money issue. You can make some money from gaming by playing well, but you pretty much have to beat the very best and place top 3 at multiple tournaments around the country throuhout the year. Or you can use the wit and personal charisma you have (That's assuming you even have those), interact with viewers, be willing to adopt an online persona if you don't want to show your true self, play games for fun, then pull in donations at random. I believe PL's message shows that he wants the rewards of the latter method but doesn't like "jumping through the hoops" to get it....

I have no idea why the hell he is so upset. He's won EVO twice at least in his game, most people never ever EVER get to say that.It's partly, maybe mostly, the money issue.

Yeah but the internet is really the worst place for that... I can get his frustration somewhat, but I agree with Aris and some of the posters in here. He went a little too far.PL's stream viewers give me a headache and I'm not even him. I don't even go to his stream that much anymore and I mod it.
He gets the SAME questions asked HUNDREDS of times a day. "What stick do you use", "Show us Kung Lao", "Are you winning EVO again?" And even worse, many people just talk about SonicFox and his stream. I'd go crazy too.
Yeah but the pressure is on PL tenfold. Two time EVO champ, even tho he doesn't get Max, JWong and others views, the casuals just expect more from him and want to ask him a million questionsYeah but the internet is really the worst place for that...

I mean, you can control how you handle that pressure though. As soon as you win EVO, of course the spotlight is gonna shine on you... Some would kill for that light, some would of rather never had it at all...Yeah but the pressure is on PL tenfold.
