Can we get a third option on the poll? Both of these guys are tools. Fish is the bigger tool, but that doesn't excuse Beer's behavior.

dafuk did i just read o.O

Let me ask, have you agreed with Phil Fish's recent statements?  

It is one thing to speak out about policies and say hey we need to make changes, but it is a completely different thing when you go around the industry and say "Hey, japanese developers suck, my game is awesome."  Or "my game is already #1 on steam, boycott harder nerds" and plenty of other childish things this man has said.

Yes he needs to keep his mouth shut.  If he disagrees with policies then express it but his way of doing it has been unprofessional while acting like his one game is the greatest thing to grace the earth.

As in they dont act like jerks, criticize everybody, and constantly show the world childish behavior.

Actually, you know, I just had a look at Polytron's website and it's kind of understandable.  The comments are sickening.

Get lost you waste of talent. Shitbag telling others to kill themselves, you dont deserve your fame, money or attention.

I would be sad if this was a good game. Fez is not a good game. I am happy a hack such as you gave up on releasing your next abomination.

Why not pull Fez from steam while you’re at it? Or is this another stunt to try and get a few more sales for your pretentious little game?

$10 says the douche comes back in 6 months trying to release his terrible game again.

Naw guys, I just needed time to get my head together. I’m significantly less of a douche now.

Where’s that straight white male privilege when you need it the most, Fish?

Maybe you should stop beating women.

Thats to bad, i know this industry can be, well, mean. i dont blame you for cancelling the game, people should give you a little break. everybody has their flaws, your not perfect, but im not either, along with everybody else who has hated on you in the past. I just want to thank you, for the first game, fez, it was a marvelous experience that i will treasure for the rest of my life.

I really enjoyed FEZ, but I can’t stand Phil Fish, he deserves all the hate because he acted like such a fucking dick, not sure how I feel about this news since I would have enjoyed a sequel

good

fuck off.

It mroe or less started when Fish and Blow basically attacked the integrity of the gaming media. Justified, but hardly respectful.

Marcus called them out on the hypocrisy of relying on the media to help promote their games, while at the same time publically attacking that media for its integrity. Justified, but hardly respectful.

If you want to criticize Beer over this, it's not a strong case. He was on an editorial-style discussion show that bills itself on outspoken personalities. It's like criticizing Playboy for being racy; that's what people are there for.

Because that wasn't his problem. His problem was Fish getting on twitter and criticizing people for asking him about it.

No, I don't agree with those things and I don't like the guy at all.  I'm not sure why you're trying to turn the conversation toward him, though, as my original comment was about why generalizations are ignorant.  

you never visited  XBLIG, did you?

Yes generalizing is ignorant.  Im not generalizing.  Im talking about Phil and Blow specificly (Mostly Phil).  I explained this and then you assumed more. Dont know what else to tell you other than that.

Well Phil has his own history of nice tweets:
