I'm gonna ask of you the typical social media "things" and please leave a like, comment, and subscription if you enjoyed the video. Thanks so much! It's been a while since I did a 10 years later video!
Its kinda funny how public meltdowns and social media tantrums have become so common and normalized the past few years. Phil fish's "unfortunate episode" changed his life forever and destroyed his public reputaion forever, but if this exact freakout happened today it wouldve been a minor controversy for like a week MAX and then everybody wouldve stopped caring. Bro was really ahead of his time
This game means so much to me, its amazing how some games could give you 300 hours of gameplay, huge open worlds, incredible graphics and still not scratch the surface of what fez sparked in me, the atmosphere, the music, the world design, it created a since of nostalgia on the first time i was playing it. A true masterpiece that when you try and look for similar games you realize there are none.
I have played the whole game in about 3 days with some walkthroughs and I must say Phil has done an amazing job. There were mind was literally blown! I wish Fez 2 would someday release, my idea is that there could be like a top view and underview or u use the 4th dimension. Feztal is also great, Krzyhau did an awesome job

the author of the commentary means that in RainWorld there is a secret location duplicating the secret third ending of FEZ with 3 pink cubes in the form of a heart. Now you know what to google to find that ending)
Thank you for doing this video. This game is definitely a love of mine. I have it on so many platforms. Its very calm and peaceful. I don't believe Phil was fully understood. I still watch the "Indie Game" movie every now and then.
One of the best things I've experienced this year was the game TUNIC suddenly revealing that it was a spiritual successor to FEZ's second layer the whole time. Also that Japanese games comment was hilarious considering that Demon's Souls, Dark Souls, and its DLC had been released by that time.
I think of FEZ as part of a subgenre I call a “Cryptic Puzzler”, where plenty of the solutions to puzzles can’t be figured out without exploring more of the game’s world. There’s only two games in this subgenre, with the other being Please Don’t Touch Anything. As much as I wanna say that there’s no reason there should be more cryptic puzzlers, the convoluted nature makes too much sense for why there’s so few.
I would put The Witness in this genre as well, you need context from other parts of the world to understand what's going on. I think it's really beautiful in away Thanks so much for the kind words and for watching the video :) Feel free to join the discord as well it would mean a ton! discord.gg/HBTyPM8
Maybe I perhaps introduce you to a neat little game called TUNIC just out this year? It might not seems like a Cryptic Puzzler, as you said, on the surface. But rest assured it packs quite a lot of them!
I don't really know why this video made me emotional, but it did. Fez is one of the few and only games that has been able to pull me back to my Xbox 360 days, and it all just makes me nostalgic for the hours I spent playing and collecting every little thing in Fez (and thanks to RUclips for explaining how to beat puzzles I never would've figured out on my own lol). I dunno, this just brings me back. Thank you.
Woooooow i remember playing this game when I was around 7, played it on my ps4 when I saw it was free, I was mad bored, parents wouldn't be home for the next week, so I could game all I want. I have no memory of what happened in the game and I sadly don't have the time to finish this video for now, but I will be coming back cause so far this looks like an amazing and well put together video for such a small channel!
I played FEZ for the first time in my childhood when it was still out. I don't really remember it, so I downloaded it a week ago and passed it. I was pleased with how succinctly it increases the complexity, the Tetris cipher ceases to be difficult when you find the right location, the platforming and riddles become more complicated, which makes the first passage feel like just learning. It was a very pleasant experience for me, I will keep the tracks and copy the mechanics into my games)
I first played fez on xbox 10 years ago and something about it was just amazing. The 2d to 3d platforming was great and although the puzzles were way too complicated for me, I wouldn't hold that against the game, it had a distinct direction and I think it worked really well. What happened with Phil fish is just really unfortunate as I would have loved a sequel.
i used to have this game. all the way back when i still had a 360 i never beat it, but i wish i had. i love its asthetic. i miss it. maybe ill get a 360 and play it again someday.
this guy sucks. the fame and short-lived success just brought the worst features of his character to the light. instead of apologizing and minding his own business he kept antagonizing the whole world and wasn't able to let it go, just like a little salty child. you can love his game, but the guy got what he deserved 100%, and there's no defending him
@@bungiecrimes7247 He told someone to kill themselves cause they said they didn't like him (disregarding the multiple other people he told to kill themselves). As many years as it takes to humble him. He shouldn't be attacked, threatened, or doxxed no matter what. But someone who reacts like that to being called a "tosspot" isn't someone you just forgive over time. You ignore them, remind people they were a fucked up individual when it comes up, and if they come back contrite then they can be forgiven. If they come back bitter with a persecution complex, they didn't learn shit and are just using all the more unreasonable hate as an excuse to absolve all the legitimate hate they got.
i’m sad, i found fez in the switch and enjoyed it so much, and now seeing this it just makes me wanna cry cuz fez had so much more potential and its sequel just got cancelled because of its creator
To me, the aspect of "Community coming together to crack a puzzle" is not a good game desing element. Because in practice, it involves a small minority of very interested players actually contributing to solving the puzzle once, and from then on, pretty much everybody else (me included) has to go to a forum site and read the solution. This is not how a single player puzzle should be. It practically stops being a puzzle for me at that point. There was one seuence of code where people found it through trial and error. How is that a puzzle? It's a secret for sure. But when I play that level, I get confused, I search it online, I find a sequence, there is no explanation, I enter it and get the cube. How is that fun for me? I think Fez was a fun game overallwith a brilliant mechanic, brilliant level desing and beautiful music. But it did not even clue in the player about the second world inside the game. Most people will learn it through forums. Reading forums is not playing a game. I know I will get some backlash from the obsessed community (or maybe no one because I played it years after release lol) but this is how I felt about it.
Great video my friend! Fez will always be the game that is very close to our innermost memories and emotions! Also, thanks for shedding a positive light upon Mr Fish's past, we all know he could do better, but lets hope he comes back with Fez 2 in his pocket :)
Another person that needs to be mentioned is Shawn McGrath. The idea of a puzzle game in which a 3D space was viewed from four 2D angles, came from him. However due to creative differences the due split up and Phil Fish continued with Shawn's idea. It's kinda like how the Nightmare before Christmas is Tim Burton's idea, but it was Henry Selick who directed the film and told the story. Sadly Phil said that he has no interest in Fez 2.
4:54 “Binary Code!?” Literally. If you know how to count; 5-10-15-20-25-30-35-40… etc. You can count in Binary. It’s no more complicated than an Abacus. If you are in Middle School and want to impress your friends spend an hour on the Wiki. You could easily use it to make Cyphers or whatever. When I was younger I used it to make a combination lock in Terraria. Easy.
Distorting, destroying someone's image is bad. But in everything there is beauty. Distortion shows that our words are like the beautiful figures we see in fez. After all, doesn't he himself imply this in his work? It destroys, rebuilds, resignification and this is geometry with words, but also individual perception
I was a little on the dumber side when I was younger, I think I got to like... the third "world" and then got lost, even with the map, I just could not for the life of me find a way to backtrack, I couldn't find any more cubes either. Still one of my favorite childhood memories is playing that game though.
This was def the video I wanted you to make the most, and it's fucking amazing. Even though Super Meat Boy will still be my favorite game of all time, FEZ is incredibly close. Words just can't describe how much I love this game, all the cryptic secrets, the gameplay, the design, the atmosphere, the music, everything is just pulled off so fucking well. Actual fucking masterpiece.
Oh wow, I didn’t know that Fez came so close to meat boy for you. Revisiting it a decade later there’s so much I didn’t appreciate, like it’s atmosphere and just quiet beauty. I still think the areas with the light poking through the trees are the most pretty. It’s just so beautiful
As someone old enough to grow up with Raiders of the Lost Ark and Adventure on the 2600, Ladybug and Donkey Kong on ColecoVision, having gone to arcades that had Elevator Action and Cobra Command, old enough to get that golden cartridge and rent for too long Dragon Warrior, which I then had to purchase for $60 from Blockbuster, or pay the $100 rental fee, Fez is the real deal. It’s the Finnegans Wake of videogame history, smashed into a million pieces and put back together eloquently. It’s a dream the proto-videogame had to make sure a record was kept.
Well spoken, sir. I have a love/hate relationship with this game. It obviously is a peace of art. But I don’t like that the riddles are too cryptic to be solved alone.

I am not joking when i say I´d pay 500 (FIVE HUNDRED!!!) Dollars for FEZ 2 if thats what Phil Fish would charge for it. FEZ is a masterpiece, and the people attacking him where mostly real world NPC´s who never achieved anything.
i think phil fish is a wet fart of a game designer TBH an uber pretentious one at that, too. disasterpiece carried the whole game, looking back at FEZ i can only remember the songs xddd

I am not joking when i say I´d pay 500 (FIVE HUNDRED!!!) Dollars for FEZ 2 if thats what Phil Fish would charge for it. FEZ is a masterpiece, and the people attacking him where mostly real world NPC´s who never achieved anything.
i think phil fish is a wet fart of a game designer TBH an uber pretentious one at that, too. disasterpiece carried the whole game, looking back at FEZ i can only remember the songs xddd
everyone should apologize
on phil
i'm glad blowfish left the industry
lmao
Who cares
Well this whole start of the video aged poorly
Has he been toxic again recently?
