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.

Only the last 2 words of that headline matter
We’ll be lucky if he delivers one of those other words.
“Peter Molyneux delivers God”
“Peter Molyneux delivers x” has the same ring to it.
I’d say the first three words matter as well — as in, what should you not get hyped about.

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
