The mere fact that his Twitter avatar is Andy Kaufman makes me believe that this is the case.

He might be totally real about this. I swear I read somewhere that Phil Fish was diagnosed with histrionic personality disorder, so a diagnosed drama queen.

I like the time he produced a documentary on indie gaming so he could use it to attack his ex-partner.

Also lol at such a whiny, thin-skinned crybaby using Andy Kaufman as an avatar

Also when he said that all japanese people are inferior to whites and told critics to die sucking his dick. But being called hipster...that is unforgivable

He has got to be a poeTV user.

this is you

Spaceman, did you read it from this article?

http://www.p4rgaming.com/phil-fish-wants-everyone-to-ignore-hi m-in-order-to-cure-his-personality-disorder/

because while I question the validity of the diagnosis, I wholeheartedly approve of the prescribed treatment.

"While some may say this is the behavior of an asshole..."

When did personality disorders become psychology's equivalent to all those pedantic little microgenres of house music, anyway? Is there a personality disorder to describe the compulsive need to categorize and formally diagnose every possible annoying trait a person might have?

It's enough to make me go scientologist.

Also, play4real is the gaming version of The Onion, right?

Andy Kaufman. Fish is a clever promoter--wish his game was more interesting.

OZ, with the new DSM, there probably is. Did you know that having any sexual fetish, even tall women, is now mental illness? So is grieving for the dead longer than two weeks. I had a psychology professor right properly destroy my respect for the industry, and even moreso for its pill-faced date rapist cousin, psychiatry.

Problem is, there's no alternative, we're either pilled up broken animals, or just animals to the mental health world. It's a bygone era with no interest in innovation or improvement. It's basically holding out for when technology gets good enough to erase the persona and write a new one to corporate order. Hopefully, every Scientologist will be cleansed in fire before that day.

Back to the topic, I saw a pic once of Phil with Kaufman sideburns. I suggest this person become the new baseline for hipster definition. One Kaufman sideburn is a single unit of hipster.

OZ that's called obsessive compulsive disorder

Everybody that "likes" Kaufman does so in an ironic kind of way.

Am I the only one that thought FEZ was a bit overrated?

Just a bit? I havet yet to find a single fan of that thing.

Yeah, everyone in this story sucks.

he's a fucking critic, that's what he is paid to do

Jesus Christ is this generation whiny

Does being a "critic" make you immune from criticism yourself? If so, pretty sweet gig.

I'm pretty sure the idea that Annoyed Gamer can be properly classified as a critic is the reason this is Generation Whiny

"I'd quit my job too if someone said mean things about me"

Do your employers know they're violating child labor laws you big fat baby

You shouldn't care. That's the whole point.
