Forums - Microsoft - Who here actually trust Peter Molyneux ? + me ranting about his Milo video

forget about that guy, however fable 2 was pretty amazing, so assuming that he build on that, then fable 3 must be something to brag about... (personal opinion)



my signature went on strike, it's demanding 3% raise

In Molyneux we trust



let us wait and see until it comes out.

After the whole Fable thing, i find it difficult to take anything he says seriously.

But still, that doesn't mean it isn't serious. He just has to prove it first

Well can't say i've been following his Fable III stuff except that one time at GDC , but each time i see him being interviewed about it i just skip it and never watch it, why? well i don't wanna be disappointed the third time in the final product xD

Fable was awesome. I didn't know about all the bullshit that happened though until i started browsing the net and reaserching the games.

Fable 2 was a HUGE letdown IMO. Almost put me completely off Fable 3. But then i've seen videos of F3, and i can't resist. I just don't know if i will rent it this time...

Everyone knows the milo demonstration was staged. Why do you think that only a video of the demonstration was shown and that it wasn't demonstrated on stage? lol So why bring it up again now?

I agree about Peter though. He should really learn to shut up and let his games speak for themselves. There are worst in the industry though. Maybe not at overhyping their games, but people who just need to shut up in general.

To me, Fable 2 was a disaster. Worst RPG I've played this gen. It takes the silent protagonist to new levels of frustration. I already dislike mute protagonists but when the only way to communicate with your character is through stupid emotes like dancing, well it might work in the sims but when you throw that into an RPG, you really shouldn't be making games imo.

sorry to bring it up , but i was just pointing out what i am trying to say about his "hyping his games to the stars" part.

Fable is awesome sauce, but Molyneux is completely full of shit 99.99% of the time.

 

By the way, he had a part in making Theme Park?

Yes, except the handheld ports.

I don't trust the English guy with the French name, I don't trust the French guy with the English name.

Both are interviewed too often and generally talk far too often (and far too early) about the "innovative features" of their upcoming projects imo. Well, at least Molyneux once led a company which created some real innovative and influencing games.



He's the best the developer in the world at getting everyone hyped for his game, then dissapointing everyone with his execution of said game yet everyone still buys it. Complaining the whole time. He makes great games, they just aren't ever as good as his spin about them is.

Remeber Black and White? That was probably the worst case of it.

Fable was so much better than the disappointment that is Fable 2.

This proves it.

Fable II not having stuff like this is such an absolute let down and honestly made me dislike the game.

I first played Fable in 2008 and it gave me such incredible expectations for the 2nd title, but then they seemed to have taken awa so much of what made Fable so incredivbly awesome.

Give me kick ass fucking uber armor Mr. Molyneux! I will praise you!!!

Who would have though...

I used to have an unhealthy obsession with that game when I was around 10 years old.
