Fable 3 Interview with Peter Molyneux by GameSpot

We sit down with Fable Creator Peter Molyneux about what to expect from the third game in the series. Read more: gamespot.com/62...

[@HeinrichKonig]

Well, I'm firmly convinced after watching this interview that Peter Molyneux is absolutley, undoubtably insane...

[@HitTheSnake]

I love Molyneux's passion for games and ideas

[@jamesdcruze58]

0:23 its all about power man lol

[@internet_crush]

Peter Molyneux needs to be a poet :P. He describes everything so elegantly and perfect, making it seem so amazing and natural.

[@Antroid123]

I love it when he says "Yeah....its all about poweeeer man" just expect him to do a ringo star wave lol.

[@BLitzRunner77]

perfectly stated. I came to this video with the intent of listening to this man sound like an idiot. But after watching it, I came to the realization that he honestly wanted his game to be amazing and he believes that one day he will make the perfect game. I hope he reaches that goal, no matter how many failures and broken promises he makes along the way.

[@mudkipsmakemewet]

How can he just sit there and lie like that?

[@urmo345]

He did not, he believes that, lol. He has strange eccentric character. He always takes bigger task and dream he can fulfill, But if not, he would not be an legend

[@bradydavis5791]

@@KintaroTakanori That's shitty business and an even shittier way to justify it. If you cant be honest, then you shouldn't be making games. That's what you should've said.

[@dumbdumbspecial3920]

i love fable 3 love yuh peter

[@Christianvirtue]

He is a really creative game designer, and unlike alot of people I thoroughly enjoyed Fable 2. I also think that this time around he will be much more true to his word.

[@TheReactorSings]

I can't tell you how long I've been waiting for a game that lets you take a homeless person to dinner, to say nothing of picking up dogs! Peter Molyneux looks right into our dreams, and what he sees there he makes real.

[@lancedance85]

Promises to make real but doesn't actually'

[@StayComposed]

"It's all about power, maaaaan."

[@jeremyjones595]

To be fair, Fable has more destructible environment than Skyrim. Crates and barrels anyone?

[@marcpreston1]

"There is This Big Baddie Called Logan" LOL

[@townsjim]

Never a dull interview with mr molyneux :-) Yes he's cheesy and likes to talk up his games, but he's passionate and always tries to innovate, which is a rare thing these days. Almost every game he's been a part of has influenced the industry.

[@BluePittbull666]

Peter Molyneux is a hardcore game designer & programmer.

[@FatalNeurotoxin]

Listening to Peter talk about game design is quite interesting, he's probably one of the only game designers anymore that cares about innovation, although his games usually fall a few marks short of what was expected. But honestly...THERMONUCLEAR BOMB!!!

[@ericthiery]

Imagine if Peter Molyneux was a weapon manufacturer ...as for Fable 3, his conception of the best RPG on Earth will be realized as a long plastic tube with no option to launch any rocket, but just being loaded with the wind of his own words as ammo... effectively the more efficient and more lethal weapon to blow our mind away from any next Fable and destroying a franchise.

[@Spinnekk]

Sounds interesting... can't wait to see more.

[@HandyFridge]

I don't know if any of you have ever had an interview with peter molyneux but you pretty much sit down and he tells you the ending.

[@Brandeena233]

Peter would make a great dictator, The man could make anything sound great. I mean this in the most positive way possible.

[@ReaverMMA]

I think Natal will be able to recognize your facial expressions and use them in the game

[@Nov-5062]

Ricardo's Axe of Hob-Killing

[@HeinrichKonig]

It's pretty apparent that Peter loves his games, that's commendable. He also understands the limitations of the kinect since he's not trying to rope in swords or anything that requires physical feedback, that's also commendable. He has plenty of ideas with potential, e.g. weapon morphing, again, that's commendable. The problem is he just doesn't understand what makes those games fun or compelling, and ends up with a bunch of backwards innovations with a luke-warm experience at the centre. :/

[@inuKeyou1]

1 DAY left !!! cant wait

[@JordySCFC]

You have the ability to "Touch" things. Ideas guys? ;)

[@Veldoril]

I hope for a grand Fable 4.

[@Foracoth]

@snowfox95 Idd. In Fable 3 Logan is your brother. You both being the sons or son and daughter of the character you played in Fable 2. Meaning that your older brother, Logan, inherits the throne. He is a tyrant. Your leave the castle with your trustworthy friends and then start gathering followers so you can overthrow your brother and then become king yourself.

[@folken53]

"We do not cap how much you go power it up", so, you can power it up massively, meet something, kill it instantly, soon as you kill it, start building up again, next fight, bomb it again xD

[@AstralFrost]

So clearly Fable III will have Natal support of some kind. But they're doing it in the way that I want, which is you still primarily use the controller; but Natal will be incorporated in some neat way or another as an aside.

[@wdbwfan]

Please fable team, don't give up. Start from scratch and build a game similar to fable . Build a game the whole world will hold it's breathe for!!! FABLE 1

[@GEWILLAKERS]

"There will be a lot of UNIQUE drama... which I don't think you would of seen in any other game before". - What?, You mean pressing the A Button for 5 times as king, then the last fight happens?

[@nightknight6921]

this is one of the first videos that shows up when you search "Peter Molyneux lies"

[@Joe898100]

Pete said Logan, he meant Lucian : )

[@usernamesaregay222]

... *epic music in background*

[@HarrRoog55]

can't wait for this, getting it the first day it comes out

[@MaGuSware2011]

I've noticed something about Pete. He doesn't lie, he exaggerates.

[@Villaking1337]

"With some kind of natal support" And Peter is like "Oh now we gotta kill him."

[@PGC434]

i love fable 3 but i still think that fable 2 is the best fable yet!!! bring on fable 4 im ready

[@JimTheSpartan1996]

@HaloBeagle I was only joking and was not "making fun" of peter. I think he is a very good developer who has a lot of potential.

[@Unonomouse]

Fable had an amazing story line and standard gameplay Fable 2 had ana average storyline with greatly developed gameplay i think Fable 3 will be the best of both previous Fable's

[@saloontamoon]

I was shocked how fast this came out, all they did though was use the same engine and add a few things her or there

[@Lunicia14]

I can't wait to get my hand on this game!!! I want the limited collector's Edition! I think i played the demo about 14 times if not more... it's awesome.

[@NullyBird]

everyday is opposite day for Peter Molyneux ;)

[@RevyReborn]

@TUTorialsByAleX Actually, I believe that it has been announced for PC. Have to look it up, but I'm relatively sure...

[@jess3336677]

peter calmmm down you get excited tell us things it never lives up to expectations... you better prove me wrong

[@starfoxseattle]

he would be the coolest grandpa "man." seriously!

[@sIatnican]

the sad thing about this interview is that the gamespot guy asked peter about the fable 3 game...

[@kutus222]

@TheAbsolution92 he was just using the hurt dog thing and the hobo thing as an example, it does not matter if you can or can't do that in the real game. You will be able to do things like that.

[@ThePrussianKing]

@TheProjectJupiter Thanks, happy to help!

[@KHfanz]

He's so amazing at giving you customization, only thing i dislike about him is he says man a lot lol

[@boxinsteadyeddie]

@soxthirtyone no he wasn't. He called it fable 2, the bad guy at the end of fable 2 is lucien, not logan.

[@Sodorii]

Fable one is on the PC as well, is it not? Yes exactly.

[@drunkenwoodelf]

im gunna keep my controler on the magic button on all night and see what happens

[@Christoffer424]

It will start dripping blood with horns on the sides.... Dude... DUDE.... I AM SO GETTING THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@CLIFFisFTW]

Never played the Fable series, however this man has a very persuasive voice. May have to buy Fable 3.

[@fadence]

You guys are ripping into him saying 'power maan' etc... it's just because he's passionate!.. alot of people arn't as passionate about games as Peter.. i'm really looking forward too this one.

[@Xelamorph67]

Is the demo for the public and if so how do you get it?

[@sIatnican]

@RecamZero he was asked "what fable3 is all about this time" and not "youre carer story and what do you beliewe is expresing emotion in videogames" he wasted the gamespot guys interview

[@sewagedweller]

ok some one explain to me : guy says that you start off as child of your fable 2 character boy/girl and you play as a good brother ? what ? im confused

[@ZombieMonkey7]

Holding hands...HAS POWER!!

[@Spiritfox06]

Ummm...at 2:23, you meant touch men right? Because that's mainly what you do in Fable 3 is hit on and touch every man in the game...

[@MissXb0x360]

This guy is really full of it, someone needs to buy the fable franchise from Peter and deliver what we expect...

[@hamo804]

@PurpleHoneyBear I think it will be like u can choose to use Natal but you can still play with the controller

[@FlashySenap]

@NetGoon Indeed, but I think that is because of the music combined to his voice =P he uses a trance spell!!

[@Caladrin94]

he gives the same speech for all fable vids

[@axtra92]

i never played fable 3 but can you hold down the button for 10 hours and get a more powerfull hit then holding it for 1 minute??

[@W00CKEY]

Peter Molyneux is the best game director/creator and so on... hes got the style... the GAMES AND EVERYTHING!! Fable 1,2 and 3 IS OWNING AND GO TO!!!!!!!! ;D

[@edwil777]

What happened to all these fantastic ideas?

[@TheLol0224]

@1:13 he said fable 2

[@Lord57CW]

they should bring some armor back , it's hard to feel powerful in a T shirt

[@blodstainer]

So... the most important part in an RPG, is to be able to touch everything?

[@Algahiem]

“Why would you take my moment of victory away and roll the credits?” You want the moon on a stick, don't you Peter? “We were inspired by some thing we've seen in other games.” Yeah, that what Vince Perri thought when making Action 52 and we all know how well that turned out! XD “It's all about hugging and holding and caressing...” Peter, If you wanna make that shit, go make a dating sim. I just wanna level up and kill monsters. “...you play Fable with the controller.” No shit, Sherlock! {:P

[@LajjTheMan]

One button for sword, one button for guns, one button for magic and one button for terrible terrible damage

[@Crazehtom]

and i believed you....

[@dorgodorato]

What about the power I can feel with a magic infused Grenade Launcher?! Could you imagine some Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels style gypsies dragging you around while you roam around a modern world? Every game is a bit more in the future right?

[@Villaking1337]

It's all about power, man!

[@NPC919]

Lol at Molyneux at the end "I didn't say that!" :L Yeah, this guy is a really good salesman. It takes understanding to sell someone the same thing as if it's new. The weapons don't upgrade as smoothly as I thought. You unlock chests, of which there are only five, as you play through the game. Each time you open a chest it will change a different aspect of your weapon almost at random. The hilt, the colour etc. However, once the last chest is opened, you cannot morph your weapons again. Sucky :(

[@infuzor7614]

oh, Peter, you crazy nutcase you

[@beatles61]

i like the "selling online" on fable, people use to pay extreme amounts of stuff for a fucking doll, and not even a difficult doll to get, all you had to do was aim at targets

[@EarnestoLocz]

the game sounds hella tight

[@MiloDercius]

I want to hold down the button for 10 hours xD

[@kesaras95]

I would REALLY love a game that a telekenisis pwoer or super human streangth it would be really exiting in fable 3 i mean like press the button at the target mob and just left them from the ground i mean throw them anywhere u like , or the touch thingy that u could grab him by the neck and just throw him like 30 into the air , just like (destroy all humans , prototype) that would be really cool and u would feel very powerful

[@Khornedevotee]

Would love to have a flaming sword with bloodred,you know like crimson,flames and when I fought my enemies my sword explodes in aoe-damaging fire effects which will ignite some of my foes,etc. Really want an evil looking character and I find the element fire to be the one to make my character look very evil,especialy if the flames are bloodred. :D

[@CalebScott1991]

good, that why i loved fable 1, i loved the power you had at the end over everyone else.

[@trilfy]

he sounds cool when he talks about this stuff

[@GloriousSilvester]

Haha, when the guy was mentioning about natal at the ending. look at peter

[@hypedpotential]

If this game is as easy as fable 2 then I'm just not going to increase my health bar (if there is a health bar). I mean u can make the main story line easy but at least throw in some challenging side quests for people that have been playing games for more than 2 hours in their life....I'm still really looking forward to this one though.

[@thebreadbinman]

@Daandude1 I'm not gonna argue because you said durp durp which is awesome.

[@boxinsteadyeddie]

thumbs up if you noticed he called it fable 2 at 1:14

[@dumbdumbspecial3920]

i love yuh peter i understand yuhr vision and im on bored love the lore and the power thank yuh peter

[@uRalIVE9]

Lol the sword texture is defined by the creatures u kill my ASS!!!!!!!!!

[@LPMan]

I'm going to begin holding down my shoot button for 10 hours. I'll be upset if I don't see thermo-nuclear war happen when I let go.

[@Emillister]

Man, power, man, power, man.... F**king hilarious!

[@eucku]

Fable 3 sounds beyond extraordinary , i love the personalised weapons the touch features and all im hoping for a fable 4 next though...

[@iboomgold]

i cant wait for fable 4 to come out after fable 3 with all its power and have him just take all this power away

[@ImAButtholeable]

im going to get it on the first day and hold the sword thing down for 24 hours

[@juledude124]

He is a genius that man !

[@S1C1L14N0]

This year :o yay Fable 3 this year whooohoooo

[@theluigi1994]

i hope that they cap the loading screens as that really annoyed me in Fable 2

[@Imperatorumgladio]

I like the way he thinks, always looking forward to improve gaming. Is nice to have he working for Microsoft
