Molyneux apoligises for missing features in Fable
EvilAvatar reports that Peter Molyneux made apoligies for earlier promised features which didn't make it in the rgp Fable on the official forums of his company Lionhead Studios:
Well, that sounds pretty honest; accepting that you can't put everything you want into a single game. Despite the lack of some features Fable is still doing good (read: selling well). Europeans'll get to enjoy this Xbox-game on 8th of October.
If I have mentioned any feature in the past which, for whatever reason, didn't make it as I described into Fable, I apologise. Every feature I have ever talked about WAS in development, but not all made it. Often the reason is that the feature did not make sense. For example, three years ago I talked about trees growing as time past. The team did code this but it took so much processor time (15%) that the feature was not worth leaving in. That 15 % was much better spent on effects and combat. So nothing I said was groundless hype, but people expecting specific features which couldn't be included were of course disappointed. If that's you, I apologise. All I can say is that Fable is the best game we could possibly make, and that people really seem to love it.
I have come to realise that I should not talk about features too early so I am considering not talking about games as early as I do. This will mean that the Lionhead games will not be known about as early as they are, but I think this is the more industry standard.
