Maybe you're just thinking of Phil Fish. I want to believe you are confused.
Nah, Phil Fish is the dude with bushy eyebrows. I know who the Team Meat guys are.

I find people who find McMillen in that movie unlikable, unlikable.
He's being specific enough with his out of context YouTube videos. I guess having a bit of nervousness expressed through hubris, and admitting to social awkwardness while still talking about wanting to communicate in some way add up to being wholly unlikable people. Those are legit reasons to dislike people, but going by the response to his comment, not enough for most of us.
They just aren't very likable. Go watch Indie Game: The Movie.

They've already said they won't work with Microsoft ever again and now they won't ever make a Linux game again. They are quickly depleting their options.

That's the only time I thought the Team Meat guys came off as condescending. The real villain of the movie was Phil Fish, who acted like a psycho asshole.
Lol Linux
ps. Wiping my MacBook and putting Ubuntu on it. Is it wrong?
Laugh at the stupid company behind this decision, Canonical, not all of Linux at large. There's plenty of Linux groups out there who would never pull this kind of bullshit.
Sounds tasty.In this thread, people reduce passionate and complex personalities into easily digestible nuggets of negativity!
I thought Halo was a pretty cool franchise. True, I've never played part 4 and I'm drunk but....the "shit game" comment has to be out of context, right?
edit: I bought SMB on XBLA. Loved it but never finished it. I can blame it on either the 360 d-pad or my alcoholism. Either way, I had fun with it!
It sucks that Canonical sold this without their permission, it sucks that Team Meat have received no money. It sucks that they choose to air dirty laundry in public. They have a legit case. Settle it and move on, don't fight on the internet. You aren't in grade 9. There is a proper way to present this information and there is what we got. Its poor business acumen all around and I wouldn't want to work with any of these people in the future.
This confirms why I'll NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER use a Canonical product again
How anyone found Edmund McMillen unlikable in that movie is beyond me.
I don't understand why some (most?) people people dislike Phil Fish.
Johnathan Blow I understand since he kinda seems like a douche but Phil Fish just came across to me as a guy in a bad situation who was extremely stressed out.
Because he doesn't spew the usual PR fluff means he's unlikeable? I bet you're the sort of the person that thinks popular people that respond to you on twitter actually like you instead of them just doing it for the good PR.No, saying things like "I want to communicate with people, but don't want to meet them because I'd probably wouldn't like them" does.

Phil Fish actually came across the best in the doco I thought, his issues with ex business partner sounded like real shit. The braid guy just came off as strange as hell.
EDIT: I think Phil Fish cops a lot of hate for that other stuff he said about Japan being shit at making games now, that sounded pretty douchy.
He was INCREDIBLY rude to people on Twitter asking about problems with Fez.I don't understand why some (most?) people people dislike Phil Fish.

Why won't they work with MS ever again?They've already said they won't work with Microsoft ever again and now they won't ever make a Linux game again. They are quickly depleting their options.

Wow, what a bunch of dicks. Pretty shady that they only paid up when asked by the developers.
WTF Canonical first the amazon bar thing now this?
I'm getting rid of all Canonical products and switching to Arch Linux now. I was on the fence and this pushed me over.

No, I'm a type of person who can see socially awkward people who do not work well with others.
And that's the Team Meat guys.
And I do think they deserve their money. I was just responding to another poster pointing out that these guys have had issues with other companies in the past.
davidpitkin said:Hi Edmund, let's figure the confusion out as soon as possible. There were some crossed wires with the Humble Indie Bundle 5 launch and Super Meat Boy plus the lack of age restrictions in the Ubuntu App Store for Issac but nothing more I thought : (

It's kind of surprising how many Arch users there are on gaf. It feels like the second most popular distro...
Why the dislike? Also, Linux is a kernel.True, Canonical isn't a representative of the entire Linux userbase. That was just my blind dislike of the Linux OS talking.
Why would you do that?ps. Wiping my MacBook and putting Ubuntu on it. Is it wrong?
Oh no! He shared his opinion! How dare he!
I bet you are one of those "mainstream gamers" who play shit games like Halo., am I right?And I shared my opinion. So how dare I, right?
And I shared my opinion. So how dare I, right?
Yes, and iirc he's one of the main problems with it too.Is Shuttleworth still involved with Ubuntu? I cant see a company he manages to be involved in these kind of acts, he always came off as a stand up guy to me.
The only part that irked me was "I don't make shit games", which screams of arrogance and isn't a very good trait to have. But it was also displayed during the whole hacking SMB leaderboard thingy, so I guess it's just who they are. You certainly can't say things like that when you are this big budget developer, I mean so far I haven't seen it but I imagine it would be quite the shitstormOh no! He shared his opinion!
