Our Interview with Allistair Pinsof Part 2 – Relationships in Indie Gaming

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.

[-Foxtrot]

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.

[Relientk77]

Not a big fan of Phil Fish

he's honestly just a d*ck

[-Foxtrot]

It's funny how the more his facial hair grew the bigger his ego got.

It's like his ego pushed his hair out quicker and he couldn't be arsed to shave constantly.

[elninels]

In response to that comment phil fish has cancelled yet another project.

[00]

those people really are a bunch of scumbags.

[garos82]

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

[The_Mad_Monarch]

Both of the interviews with Pinsof have been fantastic. Hope this gets all the exposure it can.

[garos82]

most publications seem to be ignoring it hoping it disappears

im looking at you giantbomb r/games r/gaming polygon gamasutra and all you corrupt fools

[Izumoshep]

Not really a surprise. Good interview by Pinsof, and shame on Phil Fish and the other gaming media for refusing to do their job and report this.

[paixi]

We're stuck in the belly of this horrible machine, and the machine is bleeding to death.

[The_Mad_Monarch]

At least we're getting this crap exposed. Glad that at least one big site is willing to let this article stay up!

[paixi]

I'm surprised it hasn't been censored yet.

[The_Mad_Monarch]

Hopefully this will be enough to get people to notice all of the other things that have happened recently, such as shenanigans involving GameJourno's Pro.

[Dyalibya]

I thought that Phil Fish was just a dumb hipster, but he turned out to be much worse

[NorBdelta]

I have always had a strong dislike for Phil, he just seems to be a general all round nasty person.

[The_Mad_Monarch]

I really hope that out of all of this we can showcase this stuff to Indie Developers, as they are the ones who get hurt most by this kind of favoritism for friends these people are showing.

[CausticDefiler]

This interview w/Pinsoff is fantastic, and quite damning to say the least. We need this to go wherever it can. This has been the stuff that #GamerGate has been fighting against.

[garos82]

I agree fully but as it stands it is just an Interview. One mans word against the mass media's depiction of gamergate

What i would like is for all gaming journos to investigate these claims and either verify or dismiss these claims and protect the interest of their readers.

Is that too much to ask?

[NorBdelta]

Such is the terrifying nature of mass media, they can turn the guilty innocent, and innocent guilty.

[MrBlackykinz]

Guys, it's imperative that you spread this like wildfire. Because media outlets linked to Phil Fisher have censored this article on their websites. I don't know about you guys, but I am getting sick and tired of the one-sided narrative that keeps getting fed to us. Please spread.

[MedNed]

Folks, you need to remember that without n4g GamerGate wouldn't exist in the first place as it was one of the few sites that allow coverage of the five guys scandal.

Do your part and make so that these corrupt journalist can't ignore this any longer.

[ABBAJESUS]

He is asperger or otherwise autistic. I just see that in people.

[garos82]

You only have to watch "Indie Game: The Movie" to realise how messed up the Fish is.

When he sticks his face in that flashing kaleidoscope thingy you cant help but think " this man needs some processional help"
