Phil sure is a whiny bitch. The amount of damage he does to his game by being a complete moron is astounding. He really alienated his biggest potential audience: pc indie game lovers.. when released on steam this hardly made a splash. I really like fez though, pretty amazing someone this dense can make such a charming game.

Actually I think it was one of the top sellers for a while.

Well I was trying to make pleasant conversation rather than tell him his taste is shit for liking it.

Phil Fish "to be clear, im not cancelling FEZ II because some boorish fuck said something stupid, im doing it to get out of games. and im getting out of games because i choose not to put up with this abuse anymore."

More like:
Phil Fish " im getting out of games because the only future is to crunch timing the same shit hipster platforming games barely profitable after years of production"

So what's he going to do now, movies?


He probably has something like up to $1 mln from FEZ shit so he can retire.

No way he can make such money in future when industry will crash with new consoles.

Way more... he's the only developer, game cost $9 and has sold +200k on XBLA , plus even more on Steam... taxes and discounts apart, the guy probably is sitting on top of 3 million dollars, with more coming every day.

But Microsoft's cut is like a 60% on XBLA :M



For 3 mln he needs to sell at least 1 mln copies

His tantrum is pretty hilarious. What is he, a 5 year old who didn't get another serving of chocolate ice-cream? Maybe instead of throwing a hissy fit when people criticize him, he should grow some balls and actually respond to them directly, or better yet maybe realize they have a point and do his best to address their complaints, or even work to resolve the issues in the future. But nah, let's throw a temper tantrum for attention instead.

Seriously, I know he put up with a lot of shit with Microsoft, but his game was more successful than many others', not to mention was probably the biggest indie game in a year or two when he released it. What a spoiled, decadent fuck.

some indie guy who doesn't do the hardest part and then throw it away in a single hissy fit said:
No, Phil -- I said I wanted a vente. Vente. It's French for "large."
Phil Fish said:
I made Fez! Like, ten years ago!
other guy said:
Well I ordered a vente like ten years ago. CHOKE ON IT

Oh. STAY CLASSY EDGE

edit: also, looked up Fez on utub because all I knew was it's some shittily done sprite platformer with a fez wearing moogle. Um ok so. THIS IS ORIGINAL RALLY? I guess I can't expect the current generation to ever have heard of the c64, but I remember this one.

Stop being so edgy. I'm not the biggest fan of Phil Fish either, but Fez plays nothing like that.

Stop registering, shit posters. Fez isn't anything that hasn't been done dozens of times before.

Edit: Derp.

Not that I care one way or the other, but why is this whole "being done before" seen as old-school classic incline when applied to cRPGs, but a sign of redundancy and lack of talent when it describes platformers?
