"YouTubers commit 'piracy' by not sharing ad revenue says Fez dev."
A writer and editor turned game developer who has previously worked for websites such as Destructoid and the Escapist, TechRaptor was lucky enough to talk to Allistair Pinsof for a series of interviews about the current state of the gaming media.
This is a great interview, pretty much reminds you why GamerGate was set up in the first place, to counter "fishy" stuff like this in the industry
I mean this is just Indie stuff can you imagine the situation with big developers and what sites do to get on their good side.
Totally disgusting that the industry has come to this.
Im not surprised to be honest but let this be a lesson to all those people smearing #gamergate as a hate group and a misogynistic movement. This is what we fight for and this is the sh*t that needs to stop.
Phil Fish is a thief and the reasons as to why Fez 2 will never come to fruition is because he is a talent less hack
Both of the interviews with Pinsof have been fantastic. Hope this gets all the exposure it can.
(CriticalIndieGamer) Indie gaming is a serious business these days, but it is sometimes a little too serious for my liking. An industry that was started for fun has become the domain of a few sanctimonious, self-aggrandizing, and downright annoying developers. Admittedly, some small part of me secretly enjoys the controversy courted by these mavericks, so let’s take a look at five of my favourite game developer meltdowns.
From EGMR, "Indie games can be amazing experiences where quality truly shines through, but many a time the same cannot be said of the developers behind some of these games. Over the past year, I had my own experiences and witnessed a lack of PR sensibilities, and in some instances professionalism when indies communicated with members of the press. What I have noticed quite frequent is the lack of tact some developers have when communicating in a public forum, which needs to be highlighted. It is quite evident that some developers don’t realise that their social media feeds are a public forum, and that what you say in a public online context can have some real consequences."
ah Phil Fish... Your constant need for attention eventhough you claim to hate it.

5. Acceptance ...?
No wonder Fez sucks.
If you want ad revenue how about making a YouTube channel and creating entertaining content.
You act as if these YouTubers are not putting in some type of work. It's a day job for the ones being paid enough to live off of it.
BTW Phil, movies are entertaining for their VIEWING experience, video games are entertaining for their INTERACTIVE experience. You'd still buy Fez if you wanted to enjoy it, shoot, I bet you got more sales because of these so called Pirates that open you're game up to their viewers.
You're in the industry for the wrong reasons Phil.
I thought Phil Fish got washed up
Why won't he just go away? He has to be somewhere on the autism scale...
