Last week we brought word of a nifty new Kickstarter project named Death Inc. from Ambient Studios, which involves players assuming the role of the Grim Reaper during the days of the Black Plague in Europe.
Not exactly the kind of premise publishers would fall over themselves to provide financial backing for, but that doesn't mean this potential release isn’t devoid of merit.
That’s why premier UK talent like Media Molecule’s Alex Evans (you’ll probably remember him from last week’s PS4 reveal), the creator of Joe Danger Sean Murray and even industry luminary Peter Molyneux have all pitched in to help give the project their financial and more importantly video backing.
Masters of Albion is already promising, but can we trust Peter Molyneux to not let us down again?
I came here to say that I don't want to hear any grand standing or over promises, and I was not left disappointed when I read: "Molyneux has “kept very quiet” about the project as he wanted to “let the game speak for itself”.
Perfect.
No he hasn't done anything to earn it if he actually delivers a fun competent game that's different
No. Too many other developers who HAVEN’T scammed people and lied to our face for two decades. Don’t have time to listen to this dude anymore. If it’s good, good for those people that like that type of game. I still won’t ever trust him.
One of the dumbest questions I've ever heard. Guy hasn't told the truth in over 20 years
Project currently codenamed MOAT.
Imagine a game where Peter Molyneux presents an extraordinary set of ideas that players will enjoy for years to come. Now imagine that this particular game will come out because it will never exist.
One of the biggest reveals at this year's Xbox Games Showcase was the latest Fable trailer. After a lengthy stint of silence, Playground Games gave us a look at bits of the title, albeit in a trailer that was mostly made up of CGI nonsense headlined by comedian Richard Ayoade, who is playing a rather frustrated giant.
Molyneux asked about what he thought about the Fable reveal.
peter molyneux can fund the damn game himself. using his fans and hype he generates with ambitious promises to kickstart his project and have people fund his games for him so he can create his games without risking anything if they fail is questionable. people need to think twice before the give money on kickstarter specially when you know the person has the means and resources to make the game himself
What lies is he claming this time?
Cop: Point to where he touched you MILO...
Peter: If you say anything you'll never see another day
The only promise he's kept.
So long as he didn't back it at a $XXX,XXX level where he gets to help develop it, fine.
