Phil Fish: Gaming's Most Hated Developer

I like him. Edit: He likes Anita. I dont like him.

Its absolutely wild seeing someone casually bring up gamergate in 2023 and then dismiss the entire thing as an extremest attempt at silencing people like Anita, Zoe, and Phil. GG was almost purely the result of the games media farming for clicks and attention around a niche and small reaction to Zoe Quinn's ex calling out her bad behavior. You get really close a few times, bringing up how certain topics aren't covered because they don't get clicks.
This was one that got a lot of attention, and the media milked and stoked that fire for years.

Mann. Japanese game design is far better then western game design.

This is the second time I was recommended this video after watching it once, I decided to watch it again and this video is so well done 👍

I disagree with Anita Sarkeesian having a point.

She's like a broken needle missing it and grifting the industry and her supporters money and ride off to the sunset ruined gaming for years.

People cannot just leave it in the past, sad.

I loved the Phil Fish drama back in the day. Those were simpler times.

And then we have YandereDev on the list of horrible, mentally unstable developers.

completely wrong about gamerGate. and yes you're just saying that stuff because of the "political correctness" because you're terrified of being canceled

This is textbook narcissism

One correction: Gamergate wasn't a movement. It was an organized harassment campaign from 4chan /v/

Sorry, but Phil Fish is one of the most horrible humans that ever existent in the entire history. there is no other opinion on that. EOS!

sarkisian had good points?????? TF

Such a massive ego for nothing 🤡

a lot of people don't remember this, but Japanese devs during the ps3/360 generation (the era where phil is referring to) were doing historically bad. Capcom was missing the mark with lost planet, jrpgs like lost odyssey and infinite undiscovery were getting heavily criticized for their old ways, final fantasy 13 was noted as "takes 20 hours to get going", literally the only eastern developers that maintained a strong level of quality was Nintendo and at this point they were being relentlessly hammered for their redirection towards more casual audiences through the Wii. In short, Phil's comments at the panel in reference to Eastern games needing to do better was an overwhelming majority opinion in the early 2010s for game critics.

You gay.

People who obsess over quality are often extremely self critical. I think he uses this abrasive personality as a defense mechanism, treating the world like he treats himself.
