Anti-Fez Thread - I feel like I need to beg you all not to buy this.
Hiiro326:
Please please please do NOT purchase this game.
Don't pirate it.
Don't do anything.
Boycott this game.
The developer Phil Fish is the biggest starfish in gaming, he's already made buckets of money off of this boring, easy, gimicky game, please don't give him more.
I ask you also not to pirate it because it will feed his ego. "50,000 people pirated my game, awesome, people wanted to play MY game that much."
Talking about it is even giving it too much attention, but if this thread will convince even one of you to not purchase this it will have done enough.
Reason why I'm making this thread right now is because it's on Steam's store page.
Phil Fish has said "Japanese Games ‘Just Suck’" which is extremely hypocritical, mainly because his game (Fez) is strongly influenced by the game Cave Story, which I'm sure that you know is a Japanese game.
Source (excuse me for using Kotaku, which is almost as bad.): http://www.kotaku.com.au/2013/03/japanese-games-just-suck-target-has-a-message-for-phil-fish-thank-you/
He also said "Fez is a console game, PCs are for spreadsheets" and somehow now it's on PC, greed and hypocrisy.
Just please do not feed him at all, please.

Very real, unfortunately.

I realized how much of a jerk he was when I watched Indie Game: The Movie on netflix. They tried to make him look decent in it but you still could easily tell how much of a richard he was. Fez didn't even look that fun, IMO.
