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

I hope phil fish pulls an Amanda Bynes and ends up locked in an asylum.
I would feel sad for his game being a massive flop on steam but considering how insane and annoying he is I'm more happy about it than anything else.
[QUOTE=icemaz;41616137]The dudes problem wasn't that they didn't want to give quotes, but rather how they acted in telling them no and how they acted afterwards which is more than fair. There are indie devs out there who would kill for that kind of popularity, and the fact they acted like twats about it is a massive slap in the face for all indie developers.[/QUOTE]
No it isn't. People need to not look at two people and say "Yeah, that's indie games." No one thinks when EA doesn't comment on Sim City being down for two weeks "Yeah, that's video games." They think, "Oh, that's EA being EA."
The dude was being a huge dick for no reason. There is no obligation to Phil or Jon to say anything on anything. They have already made a whole movie regarding indie games, have been questioned innumerable times about the subject and are very open about how the indie side of games operates on twitter. They don't need to be printed in Game Informer if they don't want to.

Wow, you sure do know your stuff!
So, has it been confirmed that Fish has some sort of behavioral disorder, or is that just 100% natural douche flowing through his veins?
[QUOTE=AaronM202;41616163]He seems less mentally fragile and more amazingly egotistical from what ive seen.[/QUOTE]
Why the hell do you think he's so egotistical? People who are egotistical are very self conscious and this is obviously him acting out. Watch Indie Game the Movie and you can see him barely be able to keep it together. He's not a stable person and obviously has his huge issues.

You mean the first Fez? It sold faster on Steam than it did on Xbox Live.

Seems like he was an asshole from the get go and having all this attention on him just made it transpire even more.

No yeah I know that people need to stop looking at them an going "That's Indie games" but the entire fact of the matter is people do. They are the poster children for indie games and will be for a little while. They need to accept that, because in the end they agreed to be part of a movie called "Indie Games", what did they expect.
Also you completely didn't read what I said, it wasn't the fact they said no, it was how they said no by complaining and bitching about it afterwards. All they need to do is send an email back saying "nope, sorry" instead of taking it to a public medium such as twitter to bitch and act like complete twats over it. THAT hurts indie game developers because in the public eye, they personify indie games.

Think he's already said he's tried/thought about killing himself in the Indie Game movie

Or maybe, just maybe, he's an unsufferable piece of shit like so much people on earth.
People tend to be dicks without having any mental issues, they are just dicks.
Just for the unaware his twitter picture is of [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_Kaufman"]Andy Kaufman[/URL], a comedian best known for his extreme hoaxes and super harsh humor. It's like Blowfish likes to be exactly like him, but sadly enough he just comes off as an asshole.
[QUOTE=Swiket;41616206]You mean the first Fez? It sold faster on Steam than it did on Xbox Live.[/QUOTE]
Not really. It hardly sold before the sale put it at 3 dollars.
[QUOTE=Carnage2323;41615945]Polytron just announced it officially on twitter.
So we all agree that Marcus Beer is the savior of indie games?[/QUOTE]
Marcus is one of the better gaming journalists/commentators. Surely the best thing to come out of GameTrailers.
Nice mullet, asshole.

Announcing you are cancelling your game on your corporate twitter account, is going beyond just a joke

There's a difference between having there be a gag, and constantly acting out your life in that manner to the point where you never "break character".
You can't just defend a guy by saying it's a gag.

You don't seem to understand what a mental issue is. He doesn't need schizophrenia to be mentally unstable. People with depression, or even something as trivial as body issues are not mentally stable people. People don't do shit "just because", everything has a reason.

Oh I think I know exactly the kind of person Phil is. You know those people that make jokes and snide remarks about everyone all the time but can't take anything in return without throwing a fit? Yeah.

My point being a dick doesn't mean you have mental issues and it doesn't excuse him at all for being an asshole.

So essentially an hipster asshole.
I'd compare him to [I]that guy[/I] who always shows up at conversations and goes the opposite way of everyone else just to be noticed and sound hip and edgy.

okay? i wasn't arguing that he was excused from being a prat, or anyone. what is your argument
TBH Beer was being a douche too
Look I know we all love to hate oh phil fish because he's a doucher who doesn't understand how to approach social/PR situations but fact is Beer was the one who started it and he was being a doucher as well. I'm pretty sure that Beer even knew this and baited him on purpose just so he could get fish to blow up on him, which is a pretty damn childish thing to do that most people don't tend to do once they get out of high school.

It may not excuse it, but it definitely explains it and having a little bit of empathy is a trait that is of more value than ragging on people who hate themselves enough already. You're completely insensitive and a total moron

Yeah you're right. Some dude at gametrailers engineered the WHOLE THING, the downfall of Phil Fish and FEZ 2, with that one snarky comment. That was his master plan, his life's work.

Sorry please tell me again why I am supposed to show empathy to a guy who has told people to kill themselves and choke on his dick for not liking his game, and who has not even tried to apologize a single time ?
