I still haven't seen enough footage from this game to judge whether or not it's better than the original (which I was not a fan of).
Definitely waiting for the reviews.

Is this guy trying to outdo Dennis Dyack? The last thing we need is two arrogant video game divas who can't shut up about their games.
Why do these guys do this? You don't review your own game even though it does sound like he's saying that if he was a reviewer he would give it that score. However when you are the creator of the game you don't toss around that kind of rhetoric.
I'm stoked for this game and can't wait. I'm assuming from the 9/10 he is aware that some people won't like it regardless (and doesn't want to seem a massive penis) but if this improves on the original I can see it picking up some well deserved high scores.
Then I read the article and realised it said he rates it 9/10 in relation to how closely the finished game represents his vision for it, not how good it is.
so he just told all gaming publications to not rate it a 10 and start their scale at 9 and below. otherwise whoever gives it a 10 will look like a jackass.

Because if devolpers started doing that, we wouldnt have games lke too human. It hurts me too even think of it.

Wait. So does this mean all of his previous games he would rate like 5/10 and 6/10? Is he inadvertantly admitting that, because his games rarely resemble his glorious vision, that most of them come out average at best?
Let me know when he decides to do a follow-up to Bullfrog's Magic Carpet. :P
I'll also use this opportunity to say, "Long live Bullfrog! F*ck you, EA!"

Ah misinterpretation by headline assumptions. Gotta love it.
Compared to claiming Fable would perform complex digital molecular photo-synthesis in realtime, Mr. Molynuex's been pretty tame this round. Its certainly very easy for a game to fall short of one's vision. Considering how much of a dreamer and enthusiast this guy is, stating that Fable II represents 9/10 of his vision is an impressive self-evaluation.
Definitely looking forward to playing this one.

Regardless of what this game actually scores, I'm buying it solely on the enjoyment that the first one brought me.
"It's a role-playing game, but where are all the f**king icons? Aren't you supposed to be cluttering the screen up with mini-maps and the like?"
So who wants to tell him JRPGs usually don't have much more than a minimap outside of menu screens? Yeah.

Good for him, not giving it a 10. It shows he's at least a little grounded and he doesn't think it's absolutely perfect. In my opinion, good artists and creative-types should never be in a place where they give their own work a perfect score.
Yeah, got to admit I'm looking forward to this one, even though I doubt the 9 out of 10. Fable wasn't perfect, but it was an enjoyable game. I've downloaded the Pub Games trial - those are at least amusing, and I hardly ever bother much with minigames.
It's nice to see he's saying it's not perfect, but I'd like to know what in particular he thinks brings it down from a 10.
