Yep I like their comment regarding the scale in fable 2.

“The world definitely is much bigger and it also feels better,” Charlton explains, “There are more things to do within each area and we absolutely have to make them interesting and absorbing. Too many times have I spent playing RPG’s set in vast barren wastelands. Fable 2 retains the Fable 1 organic, intimate feel, while giving players tons to explore and discover. We are really trying to pack the world with exploration, interaction and secrets.”

Another molyneux interview.

IGN zoomed in way too much I think and lost some of the quality of the video in the end, but all in all I really like it. This presentation is great as well, but I think gamespot definitely got the best one. Molyneux was a lot more into the whole thing and it showed. In this one some nice questions were asked especially ones regarding how far along it is for release. He said how they are taking some brave steps in regards to combat so I assume they are maybe trying that combat style that Peter demonstrated sometime last year. He said he's taking his time to deliver on the promises he didn't fullfill the first time around as a lot of people really took offense to that and pretty much the entire team believes in it and Microsoft appears to be giving them the time they need with it.

Sounds like they're getting all the time they want for the game.

I have to say I really enjoyed that presentation.

Hahaha, that Molyneux is quite a character, the gaming industrie really needs more devs like him.
I really like the way he thinks and he's one of the few (if not the only one) that is willing to admit his mistakes and he's just so passionate...how can you not love this guy..! :)

Seeing this presentation makes me believe this game could potentionally be HUGE.
I love the implementation of the dog and the way it acts/reacts.
Graphics are beatifull in that quick fly through at the end, otherwise it needs quite some polish, especially the characters and their animations.

I'm now really excited about this game, but I'm not convinced yet. I'll believe it when I see it.
But so far, it looks extremely promising..!

Yea Molyneux said the dog is the best representation of where fable 2 is headed graphically.

So there are two more features that differntiate Fable 2 from competition? Can't wait to learn about them :) This dog has some real dogs' behaviours (I have one, so I know:)) and it looks and is animated very good as well. These locations from actual game are looking incredible but draw distance is kind of meh. But I imagine it will be released in 2008 and probably in Q3/Q4.

I didn't enjoy a Molyneux's game since Dungeon Keeper, I'd love to finally see again something really fun and innovative from him.

Never played Fable before but watching it looks abit like Oblivion although guy said would look much better.

I read some comments on another forum saying Molyneux's seems to hype his games up yet when the game comes out its not all there or what was intended this correct. ?

Bingham molyneux is a very exciteable guy. He'll talk about his visions for a game and all he hopes to achieve with it before its fully determined if it'll end up being in the final game. I think he has some of the best ideas in the business to be honest.

This time around he's avoiding saying too much until he's sure it'll be in the game, but his games are great in my opinion. People were pissed some hyped features were not in the first fable, and he apologized many times and he's looking to make good on his promises this time. Fable 1 even with the things missing is a great game. Fable is nothing like Oblivion. I like it much better than Oblivion to be honest. Even though I like oblivion I'd always choose fable over it. Fable just feels new to me I really like it.

Look at this comment

"If I don't get it right this time I shouldn't be making games. Because I don't have time pressures, I've got a team that totally believes in what we are doing and Microsoft totally believes it. So I've got no excuses this time."

I really want to see this game be a major hit for Molyneux he deserves it.

Hey you guys doesn't that dog animates just as well or better than the horse in Assassin's Creed? Makes you wonder how the rest of the game may animate or what sword combat may be like.

New hd video of the video at end :)


It really does look great. You can jump off cliffs which we already knew, but you can dive off into water as well. Game is fully free roaming. He says the buying of everything is already fully implented it will be in the final game not going anywhere.
