I'm curious why people assume PM is incapable of delivering on promises. Like, I know he has a history of overhyping games, but surely he must also have some games where he actually delivered an awesome and complete game, right? Like the first 2 Fable games were pretty amazing.
When a guy proves he's a conman, you don't give him a second chance to con you
Fair enough. I certainly won't pre order this, but if it comes out and it gets good reviews, I may give it a shot
Because his reputation from acclaimed products (Populous, Black & White, Fable 1) are all long in the past and his latest games were nearly 90% cons.
And even his great games are not what he promised. Even there he promised more than he could deliver.
Even Fable 1 and 2 were plagued by his lies, despite still being good games, but people tend to forget that.
Yeah good point. I forgot about the whole "plant an acorn" thing
