I think this thread needs moderating, not because of the people and their comments but because of the article. The article has much more context and amazing stories, yet some idiot journalist took out one small section of a very large article filled with info and turned it into ckickbait where it seems MS are racist or not letting Lionhead be creative. Anyone who reads the full article (it really is good and should be read for the amazing things which happened at Lionhead) would not only be better off than debating the clickbait nature of the out of context article, but would also learn a lot more about Lionhead, MS, development of several games and more. |
I'm glad someone else actually read the full article.
Kinda funny how this one little marketing issue is blown up to portray MS as the bad guy, while if you read the article, Peter Molyneux was a far more destructive force on his own people. The whole Milo and Kate episode was all Molyneux which he simply couldn't let go. Several times during his career his ambitions got the better of him, which marked the turning points in the studio, adding to its ultimate demise.
The acorn. Or, according to one former Lionhead developer, "that fucking acorn." sums it up nicely.
He's a great visionary that inspired a lot of people and made some great things, yet not suited to lead a big development studio. I hope he can get back to former Bullfrog glory at 22cans, although Godus is not a good start.
