OK, here is what happened.

Like Fish in the infamous modern Japanese games suck incident it was the completely wrong way to bring your message across, in the end no matter what you mean with the message you will hurt and infuriate people.
Anyone who's seen Indie Game: the Movie knows that Fish needs some personal help. He's got some major anxiety issues. I feel for the guy, but someone with his issues shouldn't be in contact with their haters.
got fez from steam, but well thats good, I don't give a damn ... :) someone out there just can't take their own medicine .. http://www.examiner.com/article/phil-fish-breaks-a-gasket-tells-media-member-to-kill-himself
I wouldn't be so sure about that. Phil Fish is called racists simply by saying he thinks modern Japanese games suck. I know what my rep is, I usually joke about it at interviews "yeah, I spend a good amount of time yelling at people on Polycount"
I watched that indie game movie, and Fish really needs to learn to man the fuck up. xD He just took everything to heart, and you can't do that otherwise the world will rip you to shreds. I reckon he'll be back, seems like he's throwing a hissy fit by doing what he's done.
I'd just like to point out that I seriously doubt Fish would have ever explained his position if Jonathan Blow hadn't stepped in to make a more constructive point. Blow is highly opinionated, and a lot of people disagree with him on a lot of things, and that's ok..because he's ARTICULATE. If he vocalizes an opinion he has…
I think it's only fair to point out that he apologized multiple times including directly to Makoto Goto (guy who asked the question) who thanked him for his response and went on to promote the Fez steam sale on his twitter. Maybe Goto was just being polite but it isn't like Fish just left that shit out there as a big fuck…
I like fish, but they both need to grow up a bit, I do feel bad for him because the media always takes his comments out of context and then blows it back in his face. Like the racism thing haha which actually had nothing to do with racism, just saying their design mechanics are dated. Beer needs to rename his show to…
wow... immaturity and unprofessionalism abound on both sides. In the games industry shocking! Ha. Beer shouldn't have called them "hipster assholes" and "tosspots" for not expanding on a rumor. Keep that kind of crap out of your journalism. In journalism you need access to sources and you don't need to be best buddies with…
