Wafflecones: To summarize:

Annoyed Gamer went full retard.
Then Phil went full retard.
Now Phil's Twitter account is locked.

I give it a month or two before it's public again.

"compare you life to mine and then kill yourself"
- Philippe Poisson
I'm curious how that last quote came to be a "death threat." Does Phil Fish have the ability to control people's minds forcing them to do things they don't want to do? In which case, why didn't he just for Beer to give him a better show?

Profanity: How do you even come to the conclusion that this is anything more than obvious attention whoring?

He's not a child, he knows what ticks some people off and he knows what makes some people go "aww, he doesn't deserve this".

Neobr10: Don't twist my arguments. I didn't say i pitty him or that he is not guilty for all the hate he got. I said that i don't like him, but he certainly doesn't deserve as much hate as he gets. It's not like he was responsible for the massacre of jews during WW2, you know. He just made some rather stupid comments that made people hate him.

It might be attention whoring, i didn't say it wasn't. However, i do believe that he might be exhausted from all the hostility targeted at him, especially after looking at his Twitter account (before he locked it). It's not easy to identify human emotions. It's impossible to know for sure if he's just trying to get some attention or if he's genuinely tired from all the hate. Don't make it look like a trivial matter, it isn't.
He created the hate on purpose and then popped in regularly to keep it up as soon as people stopped talking about him just for it to be followed by threads and articles like this.

Wait, so you didn't say that he's not guilty for all the hate he got, but you're also saying that he doesn't deserve this somehow? I'd say that's the very definition of getting what you deserve.

But you know what, fuck it, I agree with you - he doesn't deserve all this hate because all it really does is keeps this butt relevant.

I'm confused. Doesn't that imply that the Fish at some point wasn't full retard? That would be a first...

Both Fish and Beer are full retards all the time, they just went full retard at each other, now. Fish and Blow were somewhat retarded regarding what they (allegedly, seeing we can no longer check Fish's twitter) said when they refused to comment on the Xbone (though I do think they have the right not to talk about whatever they don't feel like talking about). Then Beer went full retard on that matter. Then Fish went full retard at Beer.

Speaking as a PC gamer, fuck you!

See? I can be a complete idiot as well.
How can a thread featuring so many uses of "fish" and "beer" be so full of anger?

I, for one, am not a big fan of neither fish nor beer. If we were talking about Phil Tenderloin and Marcus Bourbon, now...

I think the whole thing is proof that in today's world its perfectly alright to not be professional whatsoever. I just can't help but marvel at something that shouldn't be two full grown adults with their hands in an industry be that trollish.

Its just a troll flame war but its with people you would expect wouldn't stoop to that level. Its a type of drama you just shouldn't see in that arena.

The whole idea of console gamers being dumber, and less mature than PC gamers was never very accurate to begin with, but at this point that sort of thinking is just ridiculous. Like it or not, Steam more or less is PC gaming now. Take a look at the steam community sometime.

That reminds me, I have an awesome recipe for beerfish. It uses plenty of beer and plenty of fish.

According to whom? Steam is mostly full of console port games, not PC exclusives. And any PC exclusives on Steam are almost definitely available DRM-free outside Steam.

And any game made to be played with a keyboard/mouse while using a monitor is by default more complex than games designed to be played with a gamepad while using a TV while sitting back on a couch.

Keyboard + Mouse + Monitor designed games = Requires one to be sitting upright at a desktop/notebook close to the screen to be able to read things, keyboard means having to type things, and the mouse means more intricacy in control.

Gamepad + TV = Higher resolution spread across much larger screen means sitting way back from the TV is required, ie sitting back on a couch while eating dorittos and mountain dew ie laziness (as opposed to the more monocled stance of PC gamers, sitting at a desktop properly). Sitting back from the screen pretty much rules out any games on console where one has to read anything on the screen. Gamepad doesn't have the accuracy of a mouse, pushing buttons always lends itself to action-orientated fast-paced games, not thinking games that require intelligence.

Consoles are for the generation who didn't get a proper education, or are suffering from undiagnosed ADHD.

Like Company of Heroes 2, Civilization 5 and DOTA2?

I didn't know you were a console gamer.

Even steam community isn't the lead in mountain dew, halo and cod culture.
