Peter Molyneux Promises He Has Learned His Lesson About "Over-Promising"

The main man behind the Fable series, and Lion Head Studios, Peter Molyneux. Has come out and said that he has now learned his lesson about "over-promising" how his games will actually end up. Molyneux is known for having many genius ideas, but then not being able to actually deliver them in his finished games. This time, according to Peter Molyneux, it will be different.
“I definitly have learnt my lesson about over-promising.” he promises. “There is a ton of work to do for sure, and the team are working hard. I truly believe.”
I'll believe it when I see the finished copy of Fable 3, but until then, I'm taking everything Molyneux says with a grain of salt.



"Whatever it is, it ain't natural. Burn it, boys".

  6. He said the same thing after Fable 1. I like the games okay, but I don't believe anything the guy says.

  7. The things he's said about Fable III don't seem too exaggerated to not me in the game. But, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

  8. Every studio has ideas for great games with the thousands, what makes someone a good game designer is transforming the great idea into a great game. Those are 2 completely different concepts... you can't enjoy playing a great idea xD It has to be fitted into good gameplay.
    So from that point of view, he's not a very good game designer.

  19. I was so excited for Fable when I came out...then I was disappointed by all the promises that fell through...then I saw Fable II and thought "Well, the first was a test run he can follow through with it all now!" then I played it...and realized he didn't.

    I'm not believing anything, even him saying he's learned about "over-promising" for Fable III.

  20. Haha. Molyneux says that same thing about how he's learned his lesson about hype, each and every time he releases a game. I do love the games, and he is a legend, but is mouth will always get ahead of him.

  23. Fable 1 was amazing. I have to say I enjoyed Fable 2 as well, but it just seemed much too short. If it were longer, it would have been a solid game.

    Starrrcrrrraft2?
