Looks like Fish responded to an email of theirs and confirmed Fez 2 is cancelled, no way its a joke at this point
[QUOTE=Gray Altoid;41616452]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.[/QUOTE]
So you think Beer didn't know he would react? Even after talking about how he reacts to everything? Hmm.. Sounds like you got this one in the bag.
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;41616376]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.[/QUOTE]
Okay but even if that's true that doesn't actually just give him a free pass to be a shithead. It might be easier to have sympathy with him if he didn't make an ass out of himself all the time.

Beer has already said to Fish that they can meet up at PAX and hug it out, it clearly wasn't his intention to get such a massive negative reaction from Fish.

It's the rush of the moment, give it a day and he'll regret everything when he's not feeling like a baby.
[QUOTE=Ganerumo;41616458]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 ?[/QUOTE]
Because he's a human being like you, we all have our faults and some have more severe faults than others. And do you think if he really wanted to tell someone to kill themselves he's use a futurama quote to drive the point home? Do you really think Phil wanted him to literally end his life? Do you think you perchance want to hate him?

how about not stooping to his level as an excuse to be socially inept and overtly disrespectful, how's that for a deal
[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;41616473]Good.[/QUOTE]
Also he said the same to kotaku apparently
[QUOTE=Geikkamir;41616470]Okay but even if that's true that doesn't actually just give him a free pass to be a shithead. It might be easier to have sympathy with him if he didn't make an ass out of himself all the time.[/QUOTE]
No, it doesn't give him free pass but people seem to think he's an asshole just to be an asshole. No one likes being disliked, not even Phil.
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;41616426]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. [/QUOTE]
But the problem is that many people do think it excuses it, and try to tell us that his childish behavior should have no consequences. From all the shit Ive seen him say over the past year, It does not even look like he has even attempted counseling. It appears that he is so arrogant that seeking help would be beneath him. I knew a heroin addict with severe family troubles who could handle his shit better than phil.
[QUOTE=Carnage2323;41616337]Announcing you are cancelling your game on your corporate twitter account, is going beyond just a joke[/QUOTE]
"corporate"
To be fair this is classic fish - he's really offensive but I respect him speaking his mind and agree with him occasionally. Makes shit games tho

Fish is worse than a 15 year old jesus
I'd be willing to put money on us seeing "Fez 2 development resumed" within a month
[QUOTE=kaze4159;41615550][img]http://puu.sh/3N7T3.jpg[/img]
Please be serious[/QUOTE]
I think it's humorous that he thinks this is something people care about
[QUOTE=Generic Monk;41616508]agree with him occasionally[/QUOTE]
of course [I]you[/I] do
[QUOTE=KorJax;41616413]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.[/QUOTE]
Beer was honest and said what a lot of people were thinking. If Fish hadn't already been a massive, total cunt Beer wouldn't have said anything against him. He acts like a complete dick then throws a fit when someone calls him out on it. He isn't 12 years old, he has to grow the fuck up and take responsibility for what he did. He doesn't want people to react negatively to him he shouldn't act like a massive douche.

You can agree with anyone sometimes if you take away all the parts you disagree with.
He's a mentally unstable baby.
Pulling this "Fez 2 is cancelled" made my respect for Phil go from zero to the negatives. This just makes him look even worse to people, how does he not fucking get this?
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;41616465]So you think Beer didn't know he would react? Even after talking about how he reacts to everything? Hmm.. Sounds like you got this one in the bag.[/QUOTE]
Except Fish encouraged Beer to kill himself, Beer said they could talk it out at PAX, and then Phil turns around and says "I want an apology on-air."
It's pretty crazy to assume Beer intended this to happen, considering how he tried to reach out to Phil. It's not like, after recording this, they sent an email to Fish saying "Hey FAGGOT here we are shitting all over you SUCK IT NERD"
Additionally, almost everyone says similar things to Phil on his twitter, and about him in general (like in this very thread!). While there is precedent for him reacting like a huge man-baby, I don't think it's reasonable to assume this explosion was expected.
I have no sympathy for Fish. He's a child. He publicly voices his opinions in the rudest way imaginable and then gets butt frustrated when people respond in the same way. He can't take criticism, instead he throws a fucking fit over every little thing.
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;41616504]No, it doesn't give him free pass but people seem to think he's an asshole just to be an asshole. No one likes being disliked, not even Phil.[/QUOTE]
Okay but if you don't like being disliked then maybe you shouldn't do things that make people not like you to begin with? Like I can agree at least somewhat that people should cut him a little bit of slack, but to be honest it was his decision to act like he did and he had to know that his actions would have consequences.

"Being a human being like me" is not an excuse to be an asshole, and it's not a solid justification either, let alone a reason for me to excuse him. He wants to be a bitch and complain about everything while insulting anyone not agreeing with his shit opinions ? Fine, I'm just going to treat him like a bitch who complains about everything. If he wants to play the "I'm a dick who needs no one's affection" card then he's just going to end up being a dick that no one likes, period.
I don't have to feel sorry for that guy and because we all have our "faults" doesn't mean I have to feel sorry for him. He's an asshole and so far he's been assuming it entirely, if he won't even bother apologizing I won't bother treating him like a respectable member of society.

I've never seen anyone excuse his behavior. And also, you don't know 100% of Phil's life. Just because he hasn't documented his therapy on twitter doesn't mean that he hasn't or doesn't attempt to help himself.
haha, what a fucking baby

no one in this thread is trying to positively justify his behavior while saying that it's perfectly fine to act the way he does. take_opal is arguing that you shouldn't be a shitlord, for good reason
[QUOTE=Carnage2323;41616099]But I was offended by Fez, I spent money and was horribly dissapointed with what I got[/QUOTE]
get off the fucking bandwagon.
i didn't like fez when i played it either but it doesn't take someone w/ half a brain to realize that it's not a game for everyone. that alone isn't an excuse to lambast the whole fucking game as garbage that no-one should care about
