"PCs are for spreadsheets"

I was expecting this game for so long!! :o

oh damn, yee haw

I really dont care if he is an asshole or not. I want to play the game, and thats all there is to it.

Anyone buying this game is helping soothe the pain that this assblasted shit is feeling right now.

Please let him stay in pain. I want his bum to burn forever.

Look at all the people who know about him and his game, despite never having played it. Looks to me like his publicity stunts have worked!

If you think about how he acted in Indie Game: The Movie, he wasn't the most professional, but you have to consider the fact that the past couple years of his life were on the line and in the hands of his former coworker. I'm surprised he was able to do as much as he did considering the stress he would have been under. Factor in a few sleepless nights and you have the recipe for someone losing their mind which it seemed like he was pretty close to.

So obviously he wants more money. Like that's any sort of news.

Where did that quote come from, in any case? Because I remember him being horribly misquoted at least once, possibly for the comments about the japanese games industry.

GLORIOUS CONSOLE GAMING MASTER RACE is just as stupid as GLORIOUS PC GAMING MASTER RACE

I mean, I get that he's treating it like a piece of art, and medium is an important piece of that art... but when he says that the game is intended to be played on a couch with a controller on a Saturday morning, does it really matter if the machine running the game is an XBOX or a PC running Steam Big Picture? After a certain point in digital art, medium can't be different.

Gotta love the internet.

People pay for AAA games with shitty DRM, shittier customer support, and don't get me started on various bugs and other crap like that, not to mention the raping of the gaming industry (a big subject i'm not gonna touch here).

But then comes an indy developer who has the audacity to say that he is porting the game because "profit", and here comes the hail of shit from the internet. The same people that would gladly give EA, Blizzard or any other gargantuan company 50+ euros for a DRM infested game filled with DLC, now cry about an indy developer who would gasp love to earn more money. How dares he?
Where did he find the balls to do something he said he would not do, because, we all know that noone EVER changes their views, right?

Spare me the bullshit, don't buy Fez if you don't like the game, but try not to be fucking crusader about it, this subject is getting way too much attention as it is. But refusing to buy a game because you do not agree with something the developer has said and done, while buying games from huge companies makes you... well, try to guess the word. ;)

Cut the dude some slack, don't tell me you wouldn't love to make more money, unless you're filthy rich you're lying.

PC MUSTARD RACE

Yes, my pc is able to produce some decent spreadsheets (dixit my newly installed titan) but I'll have this game the day it will be included in a bundle, and that day will be the only time I'll max out the charity donation (collateral damage).

The difference between us, being the fact I was a potential buyer and I can still choose to cut some slack or not, and I don't (like most people from what I read so its as a lesson to remember, if you expect to sell something, be nice to your customers if your product isn't proven to be the absolute "best of all people can't do without").

I clicked the link, hoping it was for the FEZ greenlight page so I could downvote it on principal.

For those who suggest getting this on a bundle and giving everything to charity, don't forget you'll be cutting out the other devs that have contributed to the bundle. Hardly seems fair unless it is indie Royale doing The Judas Bundle.

The spreadsheet generator was probably a pretty big asset in creating that game. I'm guessing he didn't develop it on his console.

I don't care about what he says, if the game is good i'll play it.

Yep, some indie game dev's are a bit odd. The dev of Braid is maybe savant of some sorts... Not to insult him or anyone. Phil Fish got into "big" troubles with his co-dev. A clash of egos, I bet. I guess he might have said and thought many many things I can't relate to. But I might buy FEZ, maybe on a little discount, because I own it already on my XBOX. Haven't gotten the chance to play it though. Maybe I'll play FEZ on my laptop on my way to work on train.

I wish I had two types of lists on Steam: A Wishlist and an Avoidatallcostslist.

Im here just for the hating .

I don't care what he said, his game looks great and that's all that matter ! I can't wait to play it =)
