yes, the game will ship with music in it.

So how's about we wait for release/beta/friends and family/the game to be playable before we start protesting design choices?

There's a lot of positivity about things that most people know very little about too.
I didn't mean to offend fish and I was primarily criticising the reason he gave, not the design choices he's made
(though I was well aware it'd probably rub him the wrong way, and yes I saw what you said, fish ).

Yes, I am sitting in kinnas' boat of sadness over the loss of the old man's instructions.
Yes, a lot of people are being negative about Fez, but that doesn't mean you all need to come to its rescue because fish overreacts the way he does.

Feedback:
ENCOURAGING ONLY

I think the old man is still in the game. Notice in the trailer how the mail tube is still there, how the person says you've been gone a long time, how you already have your fez, and how you can already flip dimensions. I think that trailer takes place after the one with the old man, after you go to a magical realm to learn your flipping ability.

I know, though I don't know to what capacity he's still in there but that's not really that important go read what kinnas said and pretend I just quoted him and agreed with it

this part rings truest

The tesseract kinda feels like a developer surrogate teaching you to play their game instead of a world you inhabit and explore on your own.

Hey listen!

[Kramlack]

Keepin' it classy.

[Jrsquee]

Yeah, seriously - complaining about design choices without playing the game is dumb. Cautious optimism, benefit of the doubt, &c., &c.

[allen]

praising design choices without playing the game is equally as dumb, but no one complains about that. 

[boxedlunch]

it's still purty.

[PsySal]

For what it's worth (probably not too much) I did like the hypercube guide sprite. I thought it was clever and a good fit.

Nice to see some action on this here FEZ thread.

Mr. Fish on a more serious note, is it true what I read in Vanity Fair, that Kirby is a playable character in the forest level?

[st33d]

Aren't you collecting parts of the hypercube anyway? Are people suggesting you should be collecting parts of the old man?

[Peevish]

praising design choices without playing the game is equally as dumb, but no one complains about that. 

Suspending judgment != praise.

Obviously trailers and devlogs serve a purpose, and part of that is letting people develop preconceptions. That's fine, we all have them, and it's why a lot of us are excited about Fez.

All anyone has are preconceptions, so it's ridiculous to say that your preconception about the old man was superior to your preconception about the hypercube. All anyone has said is "wait and see."

[Gabriel Verdon]

but it's still valid

but at least it's feedback right?
