is it a day/night cycle that corresponds to your irl clock?

Deja vu.

This is his favorite line to regurgitate.

So... blockchain, NFT, Live Service, Microtransaction FPS with MMO style grind, and maybe it's in a fantasy setting for some reason, with unlockable space ships that you can only buy with real life cash, Star Citizen style?

Oh, and there's no gameplay ever released, but you can keep buying skins and other microtransactions.

Then it shuts down with no refunds 5 years later, and all your purchases go poof, and the only "gameplay" released is one slow FPS level with a backwards flying dragon and some generic terrorists.

Yeah, his history of over promising and hype that has led to disappointment more often than not less me to not trust a single thing this legendary developer says.

Haven’t we been here before? Which Fable was it that he tried pulling this same thing but it wound up being a whole lot of nothing?

All of them he was involved in?
I remember the first one apparently had trees that grew in "real time" and it turned out to be one single tree changed depending on your life stage, very revolutionary!

This guy has a good idea, shouts it from the rooftops, and then tells the programmers to do it and they go uhhhhhh not on this memory budget, won't happen!

you know what, even though we all know he exaggerates I can’t help but feel a deep love for all of his games. I’m excited to see what he’s up-to.

Exactly he over promisis but still makes a good game. I would love a new B&W with ray tracing and generative AI for things the villagers do.

A remake of B&W with VR support is my dream.

Oh boy, here we go again!

Sure Peter, whatever you say, Peter… 🙄

valeen ,

Always good to hear your old favorites again. He’s done some great things, but it feels like investors just cart him out to make unsubstantiated claims in the last 20 years and this is coming from someone that was there for populous and dungeon keeper (I still have the original that I bought).

He should have retired after Black & White.

I met Peter at E3 one year before the release of Black and White two. He offered to give us (then two kids) a pre build copy of the game before it even came out. His secretary ripped it out of our hands on the way out the door and gave us some lame swag instead.

Guy has always had his head in the clouds. Love his games though.

AThing4String ,

Love the idea that his secretary/assistant was just babysitting him and stopping him from doing monumentally stupid (corporately speaking) stuff without thinking.

jocose ,

That's exactly what was happening.

Zima ,

He has made great games, but as others have said he is a proffesional bullshitter.
