As the indie market continues to lead the charge towards smaller, crowd-funded gaming, there’s something to be said for simplicity. In an era of Hollywood action shooters and increasingly competitive on-line gamers, it can often be the most subtle attention to detail and characterization that appeals to our train of thought.
CanadianGamer writes : "We’ve seen the independent game scene desperately trying to survive for many years as the mainstream game developers/publishers literally released games at fast-food production rate, i’m going to take on a different approach and give you my personal opinion of why i think that the “Indie” scene is now becoming more mainstream. I will qualify myself as an observer as the indie games gains in popularity. First, let me explain the article’s title by quoting the Urban Dictionary definition of “The New Black“

GG3 looks back on a sad day. For all intended purposes, there is loss today. Instead of dwelling on that, let's head back to the documentary about how passionate indie games can be. It's that same passion that burns from both ends. This conflict is captured ever so fine by Phil Fish himself.
I don't think that Phil Fish is necessarily a bad person, he's just not...a social butterfly, if you will.

I was watching this the other day and I would have to disagree. I could see he was stressed so I sympathised with him a bit but he just acted really like a twit (excuse my language there ;) ). I do not know what it is about him but he is way too full of himself to be likable. I agree those comments, by users were ass and childish. The problem is he may have made a well reviewed game but he isn't god's gift (which he gives off the impression he thinks he is)
Just saw the movie at a stressfull standpoint I understand where he's coming from but he shouldn't take it out on his fans.he has to know. Ppl are eager to play his game. It all out of love for what he created.I think he's afraid.everything is gonna come crashing down on him again for fez2. Dude is traumatized.
