The frenzy of a self-hating video games 'ecosystem' in which developers hate the games press and gamers hate developers and the games press, while the games press lap up all the hate and write about it: aka Phil Fish's outraged cancellation of Fez II has taken yet another turn.
Fish cancelled the sequel to the starred indie title Fez last month, on Twitter in an apparent dummy spit of divine proportions (see the screenshot illustrating this tale). But he had apparently not told his team at Polytron Corporation about the decision before hand. The team appears cool with this...
Polytron producer Marie-Christine Bourdua told Joystiq, "We learnt it the same minute you did... but it's ok... It was weird and special to learn it that way, but I respect and trust Phil a lot, so that's totally fair that he decided that and he has his reasons."
And it's not as if the team doesn't have other things to do, "there's other stuff on the way, too" said Bourdua, who commented that her team is in fact, "working with Sony."
