Yeah, I don't think that will mean anything good. I mean, Marcus should know, he almost tried to kill himself once. No joking, he said so himself in one of his videos on GameTrailers.
Thing is, Phil Fish sounds like an enormous douche based on Indie Game: The Movie, although I've only seen the first half. Problem here is, though, that it's very apparent that Phil Fish also is a very unstable person. His ego is all he's got, basically, and his passion, dare I even say obsession, with making games.
So yeah, if there's nobody there to actually help him out, and if he doesn't manage to pick himself up, you will one day see that line, but in a different context.
Yes he has. And no one even tries to stop him.
In the new DLC clips for indie game the movie you can see some of his rare humble moments. And you see the whole Japan thing. The whole thing. It's interesting to watch.
But he can go 100% ballistic if you provoke him. I was once the same and it's gotten better the more satisfied with my life I got.
Yeah, while Phil will occasionally complain about something he doesn't like (I remember him ranting a bit about Monster Hunter on 3DS being obviously ill-suited for that system, but using some colorful words), for the most part, he only lashes out when he's being attacked, and the problem is that he's attacked constantly. People say "he shouldn't do X if he doesn't want to be attacked" but I don't think that's fair at all.
I've also seen him attempt to use his Twitter status for positive things, trying to call attention to feminist causes or spread the word about how awesome the Oculus Rift is, but bloggers only quote him when he's complaining.
Because he's Phil Fish. He's been compared to Hitler on Gaf just today. But bipolar? Nah, he MUST HAVE BEEN LYING. FOR SYMPATHY. Because it's Phil Fish.
Now let's go make him kill himself. That'll make us all appeased. We will be entertained as the light dies in his eyes, while he screams in fear as oblivion envelops him.
AHAHAHAHAHA
WHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I FUCKING HATE THE GAMING COMMUNITY RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!
I FUCKING HATE THE GAMING COMMUNITY RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!
Only just now? Welcome to the club, bub.
But seriously, I remember people with autism getting the same treatment. Fuck, I remember this girl in class who was misunderstood because she had autism, and not the Asperger kind. Compared to her, I was a normal kid. Also, I apparently was her only friend.
What's the mental health situation like in Canada?
I don't know for sure but from what I hear people there aren't nearly as paranoid as the people in the US.:p
Also most complainers hate Phil because he does what they do too all the time but they don't get nearly as much attention from it. Or maybe they hate it when they see it from the outside.
Or maybe because they are used to getting their ass cleaned, kissed and beautified by people that want to sell them stuff.
I don't think he's that bad a guy, just really passionate and unable to de-attach his feeling from the work situation even when he has his Bipolar under control.
(I should know I did something similar at work today. (Except I get all tearful rather than mad ))
The more this day goes on the more depressed I get. I want my life to end. Sure, my fiance would be sad, but she'd move on. I can't deal with this fucking world anymore, where people with mental issues and social problems are universally hated. I can't just man up. I might as well go away.
Well, might be a small consolidation, but I'm actually proud to have ASD. It made me who I am, and in fact a lot of brilliant minds have (a form of) autism.

Stick around, man. The world is better with you in it. Don't let anybody convince you otherwise.

Yes, we need more hyper-passionate people in this world. We need our Phil Fish's and our Fawfuls lest we let art and passion just die. Some of the greatest art comes from adversity and I feel that games like FEZ is a great example of this.

But not Fez 2, ohohohohoho...
This world doesn't belong to passionate people and introverts and people like me. It belongs to jocks and bullies and the rich.
Too many artists got recognition after death and shit during life.
I hope not, just because if he does, he'll get shit all over again for "being a drama queen when he was never actually going to quit". But the world belongs to all of us, huh. Bullshit. This world is designed to put people like me down at every opportunity, but give everything to blond haired blue eyed religious pretty boys who love Murica and never went against the status quo ever. The kind that old men's eyes twinkle at when they enter the room, and make teenage girls wet all over themselves.
Oh, did that sound sexist? Fuck off, it's true to life. Plenty of women don't wet themselves over such guys, but only because they're either actually smart or have more important things to worry about or both. There, I acknowledged that so I don't get shit for being a fucktard or whatever.
Far more people know and care about Vincent Van Gogh than, say, Prince Henry of the Netherlands. In a sense, the struggling artists are some of the most important members of society.

Yeah, but nobody gave a flying fuck about Vince when he was alive. I'm not as mad as I sound, I just have to be loud about it. I don't know why.
I keep telling you, get the hell off of GAF. They would compare a kitten to Hitler just to have something to bitch about. Nothing good comes of that hellhole.
I FUCKING HATE THE GAMING COMMUNITY RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, GAF isn't the gaming community. At best, I'd call them a deranged splinter faction. That said, some very vocal portions of the community have made the rest of us look very bad today.

I read this article awhile back that I thought was kinda interesting. Basically, it said "people hate the makers". Most people just consume stuff, they just imbibe media and technology that other people create and complain about it (I fall into this category). And it's because every time we see something that someone else has made, we feel guilty because somewhere inside us we know we should have been the one that made it. So the natural response is to say "stop making stuff".
If you look, every single creator out there has been told to stop, sometimes by multiple, loud-mouthed people. We've probably all told one creator, or maybe just mentioned to a friend or something, that they should stop making stuff. Maybe they were making terrible stuff, sure, but we all do it. And if you try to break out of the norm and make something new, someone will tell you to stop. They see you waking up from the dream of consumption and want to pull you back down so they don't feel so bad about their own unproductivity.
It's how things are. Haters gonna hate, whatever. Of course, you also need to consider that being a creator is sooo much better than being a consumer. Creators lead much fuller, satisfying lives. Maybe not as pleasant, but you can't truly appreciate the ups without the downs and with the downs that are bound to happen, the ups are freakin' fantastic.
So those blond-haired, blue-eyed people that you were talking about? They're boring. People may love them, but in the end, they'll look back on their lives and see nothing. They'll have left nothing behind of value and nobody will notice when they're gone. I think it's worth it to be a creator to not have that fate. (I think Mark Twain said something along the lines of: If you want someone to remember you, write a book or do something great so someone will write a book about you <- probably terribly misquoted and misattributed and miswhatever)
I just came up with an unusual campaign idea for Shadowrun.
Well I was thinking about how I could make a nonviolent/minimal violent campaign in it and now I wonder if I could make a mini Quest adventure based on a Decker.
Decker's Quest.
He he.
(I need to take a look at that editor after I finish the main campaign)
I keep telling you, get the hell off of GAF. They would compare a kitten to Hitler just to have something to bitch about. Nothing good comes of that hellhole.
It's not just Gaf. Either way, I don't have anywhere else to be. This place sucks. SUCKS. Sorry, it just does. I don't really hate the Telltale company, but this place is only fun. Gaf is the most well-reasoned, intelligent community I've come across. Think about that. I don't know of a better community, outside of the fighting game community and there's nothing for me there. On the internet, Gaf is the best community I have personally seen.
The internet sucks. I got lectured today on expecting people to be nice on the internet by some people, while getting PMs from people I don't know telling me to ignore those asshats and not to let their responses get me down.
I wouldn't have gotten PMs like that anywhere else. The last time I voiced my opinion about the company here, puzzlebox came and guilt-tripped me.
Anybody else really, really sick of all this hot weather?
Because I am. I'm fucking fed up of it.
I hate when it gets this hot, because it completely drains all the energy out of me. Like, all of it. I'm basically just a lifeless collection of fluid and organs, flumped into a chair and doing NOTHING.
I've got half a dozen things I should be doing. I've got that Let's Play of Drake of the 99 Dragons to finish (hell, I even scripted the damn thing, so that's the hard bit done already). I've got to find new video editing software. I've got video reviews to do, like Earthworm Jim 3D, which I need to reshoot 'cause I'm not happy with the stuff I've already done. I've got that Doctor Who thing to get back to. I've got a bloody novel I keep telling myself I'll get back to writing one of these days and yet never do. I've got books to read. I've got games to play (The Last of Us especially, since someone loaned it to me).
And I can't do fucking ANY OF IT because of this fucking weather.
Hell, I've practically had to FORCE myself to resume my Simon 3D Let's Play, and I keep stopping-starting that because I keep just running out of energy. If not for energy drinks, I'd have done none of it this month.
We had rain yesterday, and even that didn't stop it being so goddamn hot. Fuck this summer. FUCK IT.

Prince Henry of the United Kingdom. Either that, or King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands.

I don't think he was just aiming at GAF, but the actual gaming community as a whole. The kind of people who think autism is a disease you get by getting vaccinated. The kind of people who claim graphics don't matter, then bitch about how a game has shitty graphics. The kind who rather wants to have content be changed into DLC just to get a game out faster, yet complain when a game does cut content to be put as DLC just to get the game out faster.
Anyway, I might plan on writing an article called "How the Internet killed a bipolar man", just in case Phil Fish actually does commit suicide. That way I have a day one article.

The fuck is wrong with people?
And why am I only hearing about this now?
He lives in Canada. People there are way to polite and nice to do something like that.
sorry Canadians

Nintendo has shown the console will be worth it to most... holiday 2014...
Yeah good planning there Nintendo.
I love Pikmin and am getting it next week please don't be terrible.
But not Fez 2, ohohohohoho...
This world doesn't belong to passionate people and introverts and people like me. It belongs to jocks and bullies and the rich.

I kind of hope he secretly continues work on Fez 2, but I don't know.

Really, as hot as it is there is hot how it usually is here during the summer.
I got a fan on me since yesterday. And if I use a fan it's FUCKING HOT!
I saw The Wolverine wearing that jacket in this heat:P Pretty sure I came close to death.
That is the only plausible explanation for this heat...
