Hating on Phil Fish, the polarizing FEZ developer

A really well done study about FEZ developer Phil Fish, and celebrity hate in general.

In 2013, Phil Fish canceled work on FEZ 2 and "quit video games" after an extremely public flame-war with a games journalist.

For those who don't know him, Phil Fish is an independent developer featured in the 2012 documentary Indie Game: the Movie, and creator of indie-darling game FEZ, which won several acclaims and was at the forefront of the recent indie-games renaissance.

Phil Fish is surrounded by controversy and has a history of engaging in incendiary flame-wars with journalists, other devs, and especially with random internet trolls, and this has made him a bit of a villain within the small indie games community. This video attempts to deconstruct the complexity of the issues.
