Let's also remember that Phil Fish also took time off at intervals to just blast random people for no reason just because he is a raging douche.

I liked Fez well enough, and can sympathize with getting frustrated about the stresses of being a public figure.

But....

Phil Fish is apparently a guy who responds to Twitter abuse by canceling his game first and then his Twitter account.

Well, in light of this, there's a lesson I think any independent developer could benefit from: you don't have to make yourself a public figure to promote your game, and you can keep your brand and your personal correspondence separate. And you should really consider taking efforts to do so if you are worried about the stress of dealing with your audience.

I think the best part about this whole blowup is that FEZ 2 was being worked on by an actual team, and Phil Fish just put them out of a job.

Edit: Has Phil Fish beat up a vending machine yet?

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

Except if you hit the 500 optimization bugs which plague the game. I gotta wait until they patch and then hopefully it won't chug so hard.

People have been submitting ways to fuck with the .INIs, and the results for me so far has been "None of the traps or enemies spawn" and "There isn't even a mouse smooth variable what are you people smoking?"

Also people keep gushing about the great music tracks the game has, but I was listening to the same song for about 30 minutes.
