Let's talk a bit about expectations.
Let's question the whole marketing campaign of 'Fable 3'.
I think we all can agree that peter molyneux is quite the optimist. There's no point in calling him a visionary anymore, mostly because he makes promises he doesn't keep. Over. And over. And over. And if he once in a while keeps them, it's not completed wholeheartedly. And it doesn't really seem to bug him, or his crew all that much, because they just keep on going, don't they?
The best installment of the Fable series was in my opinion Fable 2.
Simply because it held much more of the promises made than in the first, and it stayed true to the "Fable concept" in contrary to Fable 3, which "lost the path".
I mean, there's only so many times shaking peoples hands for reputation is fun!
It's time for the advertising and marketing tops to grow some balls and say "This game isn't gonna deliever anything near half of what wer'e promising, but you should buy it anyway, so we can continue this fraud for generations to come!", but then again, who can blame them? Wouldn't buy a single game if they promised us bugs, crappy plots and 2 hit combos now would we.
Well, that's just my take on things.
Jolly good sir!
