[Zombie James]

Wow? What led to this?

 

[Mad Bowser]

Big baby!

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Good for him.

Wow? What led to this?

Stress?

 

[A Sentient Keyboard]

Definitely

FEZ was absolutely exquisite, and it really sucks we might not ever get FEZ II.

I hope the break from videogames will do him good.

 

[Dinda]

oh well

 

[Caelestis]

Someone needs a chill pill...

 

[ryushe]

( ; -_-) ...

Oh well. Not a huge fan of his or Fez, but I thought he was interesting to say the least.

 

[Opus Angelorum]

Plenty more fish in the sea.

 

[Kyoufu]

This sucks

 

[deejay]

He'll be back...

 

[EktorPR]

What abuse? Ah, c'mon Phil... Everyone loved your game! Now, put up and make another, be it independently or else.

I guess I'll just quote myself from the other thread.

There are other jobs than game development.

You bring this up, but Phil said one of the things that resonated with me personally quite a lot.

Okay, I haven't finished any games, but I have spent a fair bit of time working on a few projects here and there and found myself feeling down because I wasn't finishing them and had very little to show for my time:

What was the thing that made you never give up on making this game?

The lack of alternatives? What else was I going to do? I have very few applicable skills outside of what I do. So fear, I guess.

He can say some really crazy and offensive things at times, but that hit me. Hopefully he either continues with gamedev or has success in other jobs.

Good luck to him.

 

[Delusibeta]

Over/under number of days he makes his grand return to the industry. I'll put my Bison Dollars on three.

 

[ExigentContact]

Wow? What led to this?

Probably today's implosion. However, the seeds were sowed long before.

 

[Obscene Jester]

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

 

[AmaterasuOkami076]

Didn't he kind of bring this on himself?

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Quite mature of him

 

[fantomena]

Oh man, please don't do it Phil.

 

[Peace Walker]

Hopefully he'll get a job where he doesn't have to put up with any shit, oh wait...

 

[ComputerMKII]

I'm sad it had to happen like this but I hope this will bring him the peace he wants and needs.

 

[Lifesontheline]

Truly embarrassing

 

[abadguy]

And nothing of value was lost....

 

[R3TRO]

Good riddance.

 

[MormaPope]

He'll probably come back next week, Fez Reborn or Fish Reborn or something.

If he doesn't, well, Fez was pretty decent I guess.

 

[animagnum]

This is just kayfabe, right? He'll be back next week in another promotion?

Nice avatar. Love Elite Gymnastics.

 

[Darkmakaimura]

Phil Fish and the whole Indie Movie gave me second thoughts about ever wanting to become a game developer. I couldn't handle that kind of stress.

 

[Fersis]

I know it sounds silly, but making games is quite stressing.

 

[Lunar15]

Take a break, man.

Walk it off.

 

[Wallach]

and all because of overreacting gamers, such a shame

Not really.

 

[M4shy]

Shame. No clue what he'll go into next though.

 

[Enco]

He'll be back.

 

[Gusto]

Did he tweet this underwater?

 

[statham]

( . )( . )

 

[qq more]

Welp. Did not expected that lol

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Internet FTL

 

[deli2000]

Please calm down. Please.

 

[meppi]

Quite mature of him

Didn't expect any less though.

[Thezez]

Plenty more fish in the sea.

Goddamn, lol

 

[Qassim]

If he loves games he'll calm down and carry on . I just hope he identifies the problems that make him so upset and angry before coming back.

It'd be a shame for him and the industry for this to truly be it.

 

[alr1ght]

I totally believe him. Totally...

 

[Canis lupus]

-_-

 

[Lord British]

I hope he feels better.
