[QUOTE=junker154;41629425]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.[/QUOTE]
I could understand it if it was a genuine discussion with direction and possibility.
But right now youre just talking about how the guy is a total bummer for talking smack about people talking smack about him. What the fuck are we going to get out of this man??

I didn't say a goddamn thing in this thread, the irony is that your pointless comment only adds to this mess.

well then we're all just a bunch of retards shit posting
what else is new? Why do you even care about what we care about? You're doing the exact same thing youre speaking out against. So your comment is even more useless, and frankly that makes you thrice as retarded.
In fact, why does Facepunch even exist for that matter? Instead of bitching about abortion we could all be helping children or doing something else.

[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

Who is kevin dent and what did he do? I can't find any record of it.

I may find your posts to be dumb but lolwutdudes was just being even more silly
I don't see why people need to talk to other people like lolwutdude did, that's exactly the same shit Phil does. It's gotta stop.
People, it's not ok to shitpost heavily just because you're replying to a shit post. How hard is this to understand?
Seriously, if you don't care and there are more important things to do, then why are you here? Why are you continuing this argument? Why post at all?

Why is there a 13 page discussion about this?
A bad person, who made a generic retro platformer got angry and ran off with people's money. Good riddance, end of story.
What more is there to really discuss?
Well lets be above this and walk away.

So, I just watched the Indie game movie to see what fish was like in it. There was a part of the story that talked about his partner that needed to sign some legal forms so fish wouldn't be sued by him. Does anyone know what the full story was there?

From what I could remember from the movie, I felt like Phil was a depressing and extremely stressed guy.

Because apparently when his former business partner was with him when they formed Polytron, he had done some work on Fez and apparently, from what I understood, Fish risked being sued by showing off Fez at PAX East because the guy who was the former business partner had not yet signed the paperwork seperating him from Polytron, meaning that there was still the work that he had done in Fez still in the game and Fish was at risk of being sued because he was demonstrating parts of something that were not his own,
[QUOTE=Ganerumo;41625248]It's funny because you screencapped the scores, but not the reviews themselves.
The positive "pro" reviews are literally all just "this game is a masterpiece goty all year every year oh my god I creamed my pants so indie", and the only slightly negative review mentions some of the shitty aspects of the game. None of them mention the XBLA save corrupt glitch, and none of them mention that the game has no goal, no enemies, is repetitive as fuck, uses an already explored concept and not a brand new innovative artsy gameplay mechanic like they want to believe, and is essentially entirely based around how much the player can try to find a goal to what he's doing before realizing that there is no goal, no incentive to keep playing and no penalty for fucking up whatsoever.
The user reviews are pretty much exactly the same, with the addition of being all 10/10 to pump up the user score, because people are babies. The few legitimate reviews have good points and make more sense than the usual "Phil Fish is a god Fez is love Fez is life so pretty 8 bit graphics so indie oh my god it's retro so you can't hate it". People actually believe that the retro "8bit" (it's not 8bit, at all) style of the game is somewhat unique, while there has been a plethora of other games in the exact same style released, usually for free on NG because it's a lazy art style used by people who want to release games fast and efficiently.
Don't use metacritic as an argumernt, it's not viable at all. It makes as much sense as saying that Sim City 5 is goty because it sold well.[/QUOTE]
Simcity 5 is completely different. That game rolled in preorders due to hype and having a legacy behind it. Fez was made by a previously unheard of company.
Believe it or not, Fez has its fans. So does Polytron. At least, it did before a good amount were lost after seeing Phil Fish kind of being a huge dick.
Also, you can't exactly just argue that all the good reviews were crappy and all the bad reviews were "legitimate." That's like being a republican and just calling all democrats stupid, therefore everything democrats stand for is stupid.
People's opinions are opinions. The general consensus from the public not phased by Phil Fish's immature remarks tends to be that the game is rather charming and wellmade.
Fez sold well at launch and continued to sell very well post-launch, even selling a very large amount of copies during the recent summer sale. Sim City was regarded as a bad game (maybe its good, but its impossible to look past the DRM and horrible online features) and did not sell very hot post-launch once people realized that the game was not a true SimCity game.

Hey guys, I have ambition that you CLEARLY don't seem to understand because all YOU do is post about Phil Fish all day! fart fart fart!
Why don't you put all that ambition you have to good use and promote positivity instead of publicly bitching about what other people are publicly bitching about. Go start a thread about things YOU wanna talk about, and maybe you'll find some likeminded people to chill with instead of attacking us un-intelligent barbarians
I can't wait to go to sleep and then see what happens tomorrow with fish.
