Phil Fish blows a gasket, tells media member to "kill himself" - FEZ 2 CANCELED, owned?

I really never know anything about this person until my brother made me watch "Indie Game: The Movie".
It amazed me how in the movie he looked like a humble person while in real life he turned to be shellfish and arrogant about it's game.
That's too fucked up.

[QUOTE=Cosine;41619944]While Fish definitely has anger issues, critics and gamers/consumers are giving an incredibly unwarranted and toxic response. Overall it's really a disgusting situation and I'm disappointed in not only Phil, but everyone else: the people who provoked him, the people who mocked him, and the people who are happy that he's gone.
Gaming has lost someone. Even if gaming doesn't need Phil as its savior, there's still a little bit of gaming that's missing.[/QUOTE]
oh please
the problem with Phil Fish is he thought he could "change the industry" with a game he barely made and threw a shitfit because he acted like a douchebag to people who thought the game was mediocre (which it is). he isn't some gaming messiah that the industry lost, he's a fucking nutcase who had a meltdown as a response to a somewhat unprofessional journalist calling out his shitty personality.
in a couple weeks, everyone's going to forget about him unless he pulls some stupid shit again after he said he was done (that would totally fit his character).

[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;41622643]did you just use metacrtic as an objective score to show how it was a game above these peoples meager criticisms?[/QUOTE]
No, I used it as an indicator that the sentence [I]"hilariously delusional reviews about the failure of a game that was Fez"[/I] may be a bit of an exaggeration.

Lame
[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;41622700]yes, there are no legitimate criticisms of the game what so ever.
yep, that's what every "profesional" says. There's not a negative professional review of this game at all!
god damn. stop wanking off and realize that there's some discussion that that metacritic page clearly isn't solving here by just slapping it down saying "nah look it's awesome pros say so"[/QUOTE]
I feel like you merely skimmed my posts and assumed I was praising the game as some sort of amazing gift from our lord and saviour Phil Fish.
I don't even like Fez myself. Its gameplay is a bit too simple and unpunishing for a man of my taste. But I'm acknowledging that there's plenty the game did right and that there's plenty of people who were charmed by it.
[QUOTE=Generic Monk;41627116]ok I was on twitter about a day or so before this debacle and saw this shit; basically polygon.com ran a story on this guy called kevin dent without knowing that he was [url=http://elizabethbanner.tumblr.com/post/10933537219/so-here-are-some-screencaps-of-dentgate-for-those]some sexist pondlife[/url] that had been disavowed from several indie gaming organizations because he was such a shitbag - fish took issue with them giving him publicity and tweeted/emailed polygon and its writers because he cared about the issue and wanted to expose them, either for being in league with such a creep or just being incompetent journalists

as you can see it wasn't exactly polite, it probably got as much done as michael moore standing on wall street saying "HEY BANKERS GIVE US BACK THE MONEY YOU STOLE FROM US" but I really do respect him for calling out this bullshit, which he did pretty regularly. he cared a lot about shit like this and I think in the end it bothered him to the point where he just up and left

But they are. Like, the 'suck my dick, choke on it' thing was OBVIOUSLY A JOKE but everyone fucking had a little hissy fit about something that WASN'T THAT BIG OF A DEAL
thankfully at least that made reddit angry - bunch of fucking shitlords[/QUOTE]
Who is kevin dent and what did he do? I can't find any record of it.
[QUOTE=J!NX;41626677]there are a lot of "professional"critics who are real true morons you know
like the ones that give all CoD games a straight 95/100 | 100/100, or even better yet, go on and on about how "Witcher is a terrible game" but give it a 9.5
Most of the users rate it 0 because their game didn't run or they're grrr because they can't afford the game, but I'd actually trust the user reviews way more than the officials.
And while many "pro's" are legit, I genuinely do not trust any game media for my reviews, I find if you look at user reviews and actually look for the long, detailed ones you'll find a trustful, truly intelligent review that is true to word, and very much gives you a good description of why someone LOVED the game, or HATED it. Not a short summary and a "8/10", but an actually well thought review.
for example

Why are you sourcing Metacritic? Only idiots do that. Of course a sentence-long blurb that Metacritic randomly chose isn't gonna be a good barometer for a game purchase, that's why you actually [B]read the reviews[/B].

my entire post was literally saying "actually read the reviews" and ranting against a post that didn't do that
did you even [B]read my post[/B]
[QUOTE=Generic Monk;41627296]I know - he's obviously a bit of an idiot when it comes to humor. But then again why should he have to change himself to fit within people's purview of a 'respectable developer'? He at tleast had character.
And, if I'm gonna have to debate the linguistic usage of the phrase 'suck my dick, choke on it' said to a person generally means 'fuck you', 'suck my dick choke on it' said to no one in particular is more 'look at this thing I did, I'm awesome!".[/QUOTE]
Dude, be honest I promise we won't get mad. Are you Phil Fish?

I don't see how a vulgar phrase that has various rape implications is equal to "I have accomplished something great"
what a pile of fish
[QUOTE=Diet Kane;41628295]I don't see how a vulgar phrase that has various rape implications is equal to "I have accomplished something great"[/QUOTE]
Then you and I fundamentally differ on this 'issue'

okay I don't like the guy but I definitely think you're overthinking this. I say 'oh yes suck my dick' all the time when I do something good. I've never meant it or directed it anywhere, it's just a joke. I said it yesterday when I beat my friends at Mariokart
Marcus beer was also a cunt too.
I mean, its easy to hate fish because he has a stupid name, made a shit game, is a complete unfunny cunt but that doesn't make that beer guy any better.
people don't hate fish because of his name, because of his game, or because he's unfunny; they hate him because he's an asshole crybaby prick who tells people to choke on his dick and to kill themselves when met with criticism
edit: i am happy to dedicate my 2000th post to calling phil fish a prick

I can see why it would mean that, and I can see why that would be his intention, but there is no one I have ever known who would actually do it. The reason being that there are a million and one better expressions you could use to say that, many of which happen to avoid making you look like an asshole.
[QUOTE=Generic Monk;41628705]Then you and I fundamentally differ on this 'issue'[/QUOTE]
I like how you say 'issue'
with ''
as if implying his being the way he is isn't an "issue"
how do you not just fucking get it, why can't you [I]just see[/I] he is a douchebag? Why?

I use things like that all the time, which is why I know that a lot of the time when he says shit like this, he's not being very mature when he says it.

there is a large difference between saying it to a friend and saying it publicly on a public forum in a negative, putting down context for everyone to see
for example, lets mod this quote and act as if he actually said
[QUOTE=Angry Kane;41629139]"You're an idiot, shut the fuck up"[/QUOTE]
suck my dick and choke on it
[sp]this is a no no, someone making a shitty post doesn't mean its ok for you to make an equally shitty post
I wish people would understand this, its all about context, just because you'd say "I'll shit inside your skull" towards your friend doesn't make it ok to say it like Phil does[/sp]
No seriously, Go worry about your future, or starving kids, or the disruption of the environment or some shit.
The guy was a total meanyface, sure, neat, Now get the fuck on with it.

yes, because we're spending maybe a few minutes on an online forum typing posts that probably take no more than 30 seconds, we obviously don't care about anything else other than this

Your comment is so unnecessary. Why are we playing games when we could all just go to south africa and help building schools and creating a proper health care. This is another topic and has nothing to do with first world problems.
You don't compare bananas to apples.

There is litterally no issue here, Just a bunch of idiots farting in each other's direction.
And frankly it looks retarded.
