Keep in mind he turned into a jerk after everyone kept harassing him to finish the game. He kinda just...snapped.

Pretty sure he's bipolar (manic/depressive); traits really came out in Indie Game.

Could be. He's a great game designer, too bad he is one of the most hated dev now... I don't give a shit about the drama, I'd like fez2

Fish is legit psycho, he cracked with the pressure of becoming big. He was in the process of making his next game, had a meltdown on Twitter

But... FEZ has been out on steam for a year already...
he made a big deal about how it would never come to steam because that would compromise his games artistic integrity.

I hated him before I even started reading. I don't even know what Fez is, but by God if I don't know what Cave Story is. Great fucking game.

Fez is a cool puzzle game, but the Fish hatred isn't about that. A quick search for "Fez 2 cancelled" should tell you all you need to know.

fish made a great game and i love it...but he's so emotionally immature that i have issues defending him.

You can't defend him when he shits all over himself
as a game dev, not as a person. people often conflate his status as a person and the quality of his game.

There are a LOT of places where if you make a hiccup you miss the route to Hell, but it's worth trying until it takes! :)
The "normal" ending is pretty depressing, the fight through Hell is definitely worth it! :D Love Cave Story!

if those quotes are accurate, phil fish just blew my mind, I never realised so much arrogance could be contained in a single person

Look d00d, I make games, and I have to say that with great sideburns come great responsibility. Could I grow those, I'd be be nicer than he
knittaplease
Watch "Indie Game: The movie" he features in it and is a certifiable crazy person. Also a good movie if you're not into games (like me)
CalvinandHobbitses
You've got to admit that they all came off a slightly crazy in that movie though.
But he was extra special. All the devs were weirdos but come on.. Phil Fish had an ego at least 8x the size of anyone else
You are right. At least the others remained fairly humble and in awe of what they had managed to achieve.

Watch "Indie film: The Game". He is actually that big of a prick, and absolutely said all of those things.
What? I watched it, and he was not at all the arrogant guy he showed after. He was worried about his game, but not an asshole...
Asherdash
I just made a comment about this! I agree, the game is his baby and his co-dev screwed him over.
He's an arse. Claims to own all videos of his game, and thus be able to take 100% of the revenue generated by them - Among other things.

Tzazi
Which kind of makes it more funny (and depressing) that consoles control the PC market in a way.
That's the reason people are angry in first place. :P People say it's a joke but there is some legit anger to consoles for a good reason.
ImJustHereSoIDontGetFined
I can't speak for everyone but, for me, it is just a joke, at least when the term is used toward a gamer. I have some anger toward the [1]
developers who shortchange PC users in favor of console development but I understand why they do so and I don't blame the console [2]
gamers. You can't realistically expect people not to buy their platform of choice because it has an inadvertent negative effect on yours [3]
(3) to lessen that effect by 'educating' the 'peasants' on how inferior a console is. This is the reasoning I have seen, in any case.
(2) concerned the console users are buying an inferior platform for no reason and this has an adverse effect on them. They want-
(1) Yes they can. In the eyes of those who are angry the users are more at fault because it's just market economics. As far as they're-

Tons of people in Japanese creative industries go by pseudonyms or handle names. Partly anonymity I suppose, but it's part of the subculture
*Especially on the indie scene (or doujin scene as it would be known in Japan). And the line between indie and pro is very blurred there.

Is it just me, or do the Japanese have an obsession with using English words that they can't pronounce properly?
Well their language makes it difficult to pronounce pretty much any foreign word, so...
lk2oi3fklsndlkfsdfsdf
No. They do pronounce it properly, in their own language. Almost all of the Japanese alphabet's characters consist of 2 "letters" in (1)
(2) English. Loan words are recreated in their own language so they can actually use them with eachother normally without having to learn
(4) when in reality they're just speaking in another language, using loan words. But uh, yeah, knowledge is power or something. Woo Japan!
(3) and speak English. It's not an obsession, it's the language itself. It bugs me when people think they can't pronounce things "properly"

good vid, but of course there's a way to be famous wrong. there's a way to be a person wrong, regardless of fame, and that's "being a dick"

I don't dislike Phil as a concept. I dislike him as a person because he behaves like a terrible person.
When anonymous people are dicks, I think they're assholes, but I probably won't see them again.
When famous people are dicks, I'll remember that when they come up again and I will make decisions based on what I've seen.

MrKitty2stronK
From what i saw here he isn't even on the Kanye scale, he responds to insults with an insult and is a bit narcissistic whereas Kanye 1/2
tries to be the centerlight everywhere he goes and is very active in his pursuit of being an Ahole. 2/2
BTW i hate the fucking guy. He's an asshole.
iLoveItWhenMyFingersSmellLikePussy
According to that video, it's the concept "Phil Fish" you hate
I knew him long before all that went down. Back in his TIG days. He was an asshole then. Now he's famous for it.
He does seem like an asshole, sure, but celebrity assholes have agents and PR people. I suspect if he hired someone to run his Twitter (1/?)
and quietly developed the game behind the scenes, he wouldn't be so infamous at all and we'd just be enjoying his game. Not all people (2/?)
MasterofGiraffes
Oh man what a watch, fuck Phil Fish...God I'm an asshole
This video really isn't that good. The social justice point at the end is idiotic and it tries to excuse his behavior by saying (1)
"He doesn't know that famous people are treated differently!" as if non-famous people aren't also looked down upon for being dicks. (2)
SuperNoobishDude
It's convincing and all. But it just saying that famous people can be dicks and get away with it.
Broducer
I don't about getting away with it. The last time I heard about Fish was something to do with the FBI...
Not really. He never said Phil should "get away with it", just gave some perspective on his (in)famy.
He's saying that we hate the concept of his image.
That's still not saying that he should get away with it. He was simply analyzing what people /really/ hate about Phil.
Also, the "concept" he mentions is not Phil's image. It's the concept of undeserved fame etc I mean the vid explains it pretty well.
We got some different opinions on this topic. For me it just seems like he's trying to calm everyone down by trying to make some sense in it
Duskiewastaken
he said "we don't now phil fish" and we don't. People get famous and are expected things all of a sudden, this is a problem.
Non-famous people are expected to not be dicks as well. There just aren't as many consequences when few people see you being a dick.
We do know something about him. Let me make a small example. You suck.
Just for the record. "You suck" were an example. If someone is wondering.
You're judging someone based solely on one aspect of him, he's more than that, who do you think you are, calling jerks out acting like one?
That's the human nature. We judge to survive. If he acts like a jerk in one aspect then he's probable a jerk in other aspects.

I was too scared I'd fuck up to get the good ending. :[

There are a LOT of places where if you make a hiccup you miss the route to Hell, but it's worth trying until it takes! :)
SwordSaint892
The "normal" ending is pretty depressing, the fight through Hell is definitely worth it! :D Love Cave Story!

if those quotes are accurate, phil fish just blew my mind, I never realised so much arrogance could be contained in a single person
graehall
Look d00d, I make games, and I have to say that with great sideburns come great responsibility. Could I grow those, I'd be be nicer than he
knittaplease
Watch "Indie Game: The movie" he features in it and is a certifiable crazy person. Also a good movie if you're not into games (like me)
CalvinandHobbitses
You've got to admit that they all came off a slightly crazy in that movie though.
knittaplease
But he was extra special. All the devs were weirdos but come on.. Phil Fish had an ego at least 8x the size of anyone else
CalvinandHobbitses
You are right. At least the others remained fairly humble and in awe of what they had managed to achieve.

that hair is terrible, I don't get why no-one has told him, seriously, that's the first thing I noticed... but maybe that's his plan O_o
tarataqa
yup, focus on the hair and not his god-complex.
LearningOnImgur
Watch "Indie film: The Game". He is actually that big of a prick, and absolutely said all of those things.
yarir
What? I watched it, and he was not at all the arrogant guy he showed after. He was worried about his game, but not an asshole...
Asherdash
I just made a comment about this! I agree, the game is his baby and his co-dev screwed him over.
Genericcaptain
He's an arse. Claims to own all videos of his game, and thus be able to take 100% of the revenue generated by them - Among other things.
Snarkoleptic
I hate when they use the word "peasant" for this kind of attitude. Peasants seldom have that level of self-righteousness
CabooseTheVehicleDestroyer
Look at the mud.
TitansAllTheWayDown
You're right. I will now call them console Kaynes
Fractoman
It's more because they're spewing uninformed garbage and acting like an unwashed, peasant. Ignorant and groveling to a console potato.
Narushima
So many synonyms for "arrogant", use them!
tarataqa
I think OP was commenting on his "console peasant" status, not his peasant attitude.
MillerLitesaber
I'm new to this guy... did we always hate him because of his attitude or just because he didn't want to make PC games?
tarataqa
I'm new to this dude too,but I'm tired of hating today. Let's just ignore the crap outta him.

Philthy console peasant

Let's just use the word philthy when talking about console peasants from now on.

nelshai
The insult more revolves around the idea that they should "know their place." and that they are uneducated.
Snarkoleptic
Surprisingly, I have found that being uneducated and being a tool are completely unrelated things
Tzazi
Which kind of makes it more funny (and depressing) that consoles control the PC market in a way.
nelshai
That's the reason people are angry in first place. :P People say it's a joke but there is some legit anger to consoles for a good reason.
ImJustHereSoIDontGetFined
I can't speak for everyone but, for me, it is just a joke, at least when the term is used toward a gamer. I have some anger toward the [1]
ImJustHereSoIDontGetFined
developers who shortchange PC users in favor of console development but I understand why they do so and I don't blame the console [2]
ImJustHereSoIDontGetFined
gamers. You can't realistically expect people not to buy their platform of choice because it has an inadvertent negative effect on yours [3]
nelshai
(3) to lessen that effect by 'educating' the 'peasants' on how inferior a console is. This is the reasoning I have seen, in any case.
nelshai
(2) concerned the console users are buying an inferior platform for no reason and this has an adverse effect on them. They want-
nelshai
(1) Yes they can. In the eyes of those who are angry the users are more at fault because it's just market economics. As far as they're-

Is his name Pixel?

I think it's a pseudonym. Like Zun, creator of the Tohou games or Moot. Cave Story is amazing though

Tons of people in Japanese creative industries go by pseudonyms or handle names. Partly anonymity I suppose, but it's part of the subculture
lygerzero0zero
*Especially on the indie scene (or doujin scene as it would be known in Japan). And the line between indie and pro is very blurred there.

Is it just me, or do the Japanese have an obsession with using English words that they can't pronounce properly?
Narushima
Well their language makes it difficult to pronounce pretty much any foreign word, so...
lk2oi3fklsndlkfsdfsdf
No. They do pronounce it properly, in their own language. Almost all of the Japanese alphabet's characters consist of 2 "letters" in (1)
lk2oi3fklsndlkfsdfsdf
(2) English. Loan words are recreated in their own language so they can actually use them with eachother normally without having to learn
lk2oi3fklsndlkfsdfsdf
(4) when in reality they're just speaking in another language, using loan words. But uh, yeah, knowledge is power or something. Woo Japan!
lk2oi3fklsndlkfsdfsdf
(3) and speak English. It's not an obsession, it's the language itself. It bugs me when people think they can't pronounce things "properly"

good vid, but of course there's a way to be famous wrong. there's a way to be a person wrong, regardless of fame, and that's "being a dick"
ibeandrew
It certainly lends perspective. It doesn't justify his arrogant or dickish behavior, but I certainly don't feel like I can hate the guy.
ShamnusMcfee
If you're not the kind of guy that can hate Phil Fish, you're not the kind of guy I want around my children.
nobodyinparticular
Bumped. The whole thing was very much worth the watch/listen.
mechanimated
Indie Game: The Movie has him in it, and he acts like an autistic twat the entire time. "My geeeenyussss" -game proceeds not to work at PAX-

I don't dislike Phil as a concept. I dislike him as a person because he behaves like a terrible person.
Boredman
When anonymous people are dicks, I think they're assholes, but I probably won't see them again.
Boredman
When famous people are dicks, I'll remember that when they come up again and I will make decisions based on what I've seen.
beardedwolf
Or look at anything he's tweeted. Ever.
lostwynter
That was an excellent video, thank you.
MrKitty2stronK
From what i saw here he isn't even on the Kanye scale, he responds to insults with an insult and is a bit narcissistic whereas Kanye 1/2
MrKitty2stronK
tries to be the centerlight everywhere he goes and is very active in his pursuit of being an Ahole. 2/2
assholetranslator
BTW i hate the fucking guy. He's an asshole.
iLoveItWhenMyFingersSmellLikePussy
According to that video, it's the concept "Phil Fish" you hate
assholetranslator
I knew him long before all that went down. Back in his TIG days. He was an asshole then. Now he's famous for it.
lygerzero0zero
He does seem like an asshole, sure, but celebrity assholes have agents and PR people. I suspect if he hired someone to run his Twitter (1/?)
lygerzero0zero
and quietly developed the game behind the scenes, he wouldn't be so infamous at all and we'd just be enjoying his game. Not all people (2/?)
MasterofGiraffes
Oh man what a watch, fuck Phil Fish...God I'm an asshole
Boredman
This video really isn't that good. The social justice point at the end is idiotic and it tries to excuse his behavior by saying (1)
Boredman
"He doesn't know that famous people are treated differently!" as if non-famous people aren't also looked down upon for being dicks. (2)
SuperNoobishDude
It's convincing and all. But it just saying that famous people can be dicks and get away with it.
Broducer
I don't about getting away with it. The last time I heard about Fish was something to do with the FBI...
lygerzero0zero
Not really. He never said Phil should "get away with it", just gave some perspective on his (in)famy.
SuperNoobishDude
He's saying that we hate the concept of his image.
lygerzero0zero
That's still not saying that he should get away with it. He was simply analyzing what people /really/ hate about Phil.
lygerzero0zero
Also, the "concept" he mentions is not Phil's image. It's the concept of undeserved fame etc I mean the vid explains it pretty well.
SuperNoobishDude
We got some different opinions on this topic. For me it just seems like he's trying to calm everyone down by trying to make some sense in it
Duskiewastaken
he said "we don't now phil fish" and we don't. People get famous and are expected things all of a sudden, this is a problem.
Boredman
Non-famous people are expected to not be dicks as well. There just aren't as many consequences when few people see you being a dick.
SuperNoobishDude
We do know something about him. Let me make a small example. You suck.
SuperNoobishDude
Just for the record. "You suck" were an example. If someone is wondering.
Duskiewastaken
You're judging someone based solely on one aspect of him, he's more than that, who do you think you are, calling jerks out acting like one?
SuperNoobishDude
That's the human nature. We judge to survive. If he acts like a jerk in one aspect then he's probable a jerk in other aspects.
