Did anyone who liked fez not use a walkthrough? P sure only idiots got anything out of that mess.

I liked the more straightforward parts, but yeah I didn't waste a minute on the ridiculous puzzles. Doesn't Phil Fish know that people who enjoy deciphering boring messages can just go out and buy books full of boring ciphered messages? Like, it's really not necessary to tack it on to an otherwise decent game.

yeah, the clock puzzle and the rune puzzle in particular are what made me look up a walkthrough. i'm dumb and collected all the cube pieces because i figured i'd get a lovely ending if i didn't. the ending is pr much the same either way. but hey, at least it looked nice and the music was pr enjoyable.

if phil fish makes another game i bet the story is that someone has taken a full bag of scrabble tiles and thrown them on the floor. your goal is to arrange them all in the correct order, which is not even hinted at. the correct order doesn't spell out anything interesting, it's just an arbitrary arrangement. the only way to figure it out is trial and error. it will win numerous awards before it is released and receive universal praise

yeah except i don't think he gives the soundtrack enough credit- Disasterpeace is a legit good composer and very good with chiptunes. if you don't like the aesthetic that's fine, but acting like it's just so easy to make because it's all low-fi chip sounds is real dumb

phil fish is the bottom of the barrel, the epitome of every stereotype of the indie game idiot dev community. i watched people care about fez for years while i reclined in my gamer's throne, chill in hte knowledge that it's a poo poo game for loving posers. oh, god, those pixel graphics look so deliciously nostalgic!!! oh, revolutionary gameplay that sucks and puzzles that do the same, cranked out over a ridiculous period of time by a loser best known for his tweets. oh, it got released and i didn't hear a single person who matters get excited about it. oh, phil fish does not matter to history and will die without having achieved a single impressive, truly revolutionary work of art in his whole life. Im still sittin back, lmfaoing at your life's work, a gigantic poo poo midden. now doomed to be the only one of its kind after its creator's infinitesimal dick fell out of his rear end and his underpantes got in a bunch. Die, indiefag fialure. your move, phildiots...

i don't even care whether fez is good as a game or not, which it isn't. it deserves to be completely forgotten just so phil fish can watch all this poo poo he's put so much effort into vanish into dust and blow away while his wasted life fails to generate any acclaim whatsoever. the idea of spending years on an indie game and treating it like a big work of art is just laughable when the result is yet another pixel puzzle platformer. like, i tend to think of really good innovative art as heavily influencing the work that comes after it. what could games possibly get from fez. the stupid random hat? the game mechanics Super Paper Mario, and that was not a great work of art, already did with more fun ideas and a more attractive style? maybe it's the unfathomable puzzles? oh, lol, yeah, i've played La Mulana

you are right and This game deserves to have a dump upon it taken. if he had just made a really small, quick game five years before the actual release date or however long it took him, it would've been fine. I bet it would've been a cute and fun game that had an interesting gimmick while staying humble and personable, which is a nice look for indie games. But no, Phil Fish had to make an epic. An epic fail more like!!

edit: Been thinking about this for a while now - if Phil Fish posts on here, I will buy plat to PM him a challenge, a gentlemans duel, if you will, where I will poo poo on him in person. I will poo poo on Phil Fish face to face

I beat all the straightforward platforming parts in a few hours because most of the time, you aren't doing anything more complicated than jumping to the nearest platform and changing perspective if there isn't one close enough. I enjoyed myself a lot for a while until I completed the map and realized that it didn't get much more complicated than that, and also that everything else in the game is one giant deciphering puzzle which I have always found kind tedious and boring irl. The "hell room" is the only part that's even a little challenging, and still manages to be pretty easy.
