people here don't know who phil fish is because he isn't making an rtp ff game.

So i know it has been like 3 months. But i saw this movie on some stream just on a whim and actually... enjoyed it. A lot of the lines in the trailer are made fun of because they're a little ridiculous when taken out of context. Think the only dude I didn't like in the movie was the Braid creator, was so hilarious when he's like "they just didn't understand the meaning behind this game" and just fade cuts to soulja boy laughing at the game in some youtube video.

Everyone thinks Phil Fish is an egotistical dick, but the movie shows you where he's coming from. You basically have one or two people having the same amount of pressure as an entire dev studio. He seems self aware about his image in the indie community and actually beats himself a lot. These guys are under contract with the big M$, if the game doesn't do well they've basically spent the last 5 years doing nothing and getting nothing. Yeah the documentary is probably a little dramatic about it but every frackin documentary does that. idk I liked it.

i think it is funny you post relevant things here, dude. like, i never understood that about you. it is just 3 pages of hipster/tardis. like, it is kind of mind boggling that you waste your time trying to insert actual opinions here. idk, fish is a dick, but you can relate to him on a few levels. like the guy is a d--- but that is fine.

fez is beautiful, like i do not see how people can argue that, it is just 0 gameplay and the dude even says it is this weird casual thing. yeah, i think the braid guy is really funny, like he just says all of this deep shit about game design, mechanics and not people not understanding his game and it just pans to his game having this old donkey kong game level inserted into braid. and then he has this robot/super computer that notifies him instantly if someone types in braid and he just haunts these various locations.

i liked it, it was a nice insight into a few people, but stuff is really dramatic, like i can't imagine the main brain gz uploading vidiot game to xbox live and just weeping because he is now beyond wealthy. the movie is pretty interesting. i wanted it to not focus on fez, braid, and meatboy throughout the whole thing because there are like x amount of games worth bringing up, but w/e sells basically.

the funny thing dude the guy who worked on super meat boy the weird skinny guy just, even when they generated x amount of rupees via xbox live he is was just "heh cool...."

fish walks that line between being just absolutely awful to the most realistic human being on earthscape.
