He's still producing quality titles whether he's talentless or not (Which he isn't). I agree that Expressions were pretty weak. You just sit there and spam the same expression untill the whole town hates, loves, finds you funny or is shit scared of you.
It should take some more effort to make people like you. Not flex your biceps 20 times and your suddenly the sexiest person in the whole of Albion.
That was the problem with Fable II, everything was so streamlined you could experience everything and be over with the game 100% in less then 20 hours (Alot less if it wasn't for the Gargoyles and Silver Key collectables etc). Money was to easily earned in Fable II also, you'd earn while you weren't even playing the game!
He needs to drag things out abit. Make stuff require more effort and time, thats how most Rpg's get their length.
This is all my opinion anyway. I'd prefer a game which takes longer than 10 hours (Especially when it's something of an Rpg)
Oh and make the game harder! Or make two modes. Pussy mode and Hardcore mode. Everyones Happy!
