"When explaining his ideas, it seemed like Peter was creating the perfect game for the person he was talking to".
Basic ConMan strategy.
"I can never eat another baked bean" must be the last true thing this guy ever said
I do not believe
@@pollarman must be a little scotch piece of truth in there
Wouldn't be surprised if the man ate them for breakfast daily, he's such a liar
He lied.
Ah, Peter Molyneux. The OG of lying about games. What a legend.
I always hoped Peter is just a guy with big dreams. His ideas and features are actually really good. But I guess he got to excited when he talked to people about his games and promised things, that then had to be cut. I think he had good intentions and wanted to make a great game. Why wouldn't he. But yes, then there is his other side, the way he treated that guy who won Curiosity, or throwing a stapler at some employee, the way he abandoned Godus etc... unfortunately he might be indeed an a-hole...
Why wouldn't he? Because he was a conman.
I kinda hoped the kid who won the Curiosity prize sued for breach of contract.
Sadly, I'm pretty sure those require an actual notarized contract, not promises.
Really engaging, professional and informative video. i really appreciate it. I love so many of Peter's games but had never seen any promotion/interviews with him and i was surprised how bad his reputation is in the gaming community, but after watching this i see why. Again, great work. Thank you.
I absolutely lost it at the kinect demo part 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Todd Howard: and people called me a liar.
It just works.
Tell me lies tell me sweet little lies
Peter Molyneux is a legitimately talented fraud. We’re he to pare down his pathological lying and focus on just making a good product, he’d be viewed in a much more positive light.
"'fraud" man gtfo.
Other than the acorn thing, over time he slowly fulfilled a few promises on a few things by making or planning another instalment, but Milo and Kate was kind of the end of him and after he became a full blown scam artist. It’s not like he doesn’t have ideas or couldn’t make a good game as of now, he just doesn’t deserve to which is why he’s in a weird position now. He had multiple chances with big companies and blew it. They don’t want him, even if it’s what he needs to make something really good.
Peter walked so Todd could run.
Dude is a professional liar.
He should be in politics.
@@chrisnichols9014 Spot on.
Peter just has a habit of overselling his games.
At least No Man's Sky and Cyberpunk's developers put in effort to patch out the problems. Peter just goes oh well next project. 😅😂
just the diffrent is that peter was making some classics! Cyberpunk is nothing than overhyped!
@@baloothesuperpug7092 Cyberpunk is still a good game and did things that no other games did. Depends who you ask I guess. I really enjoyed it but I never bought into the initial hype so that's probably why. They did actively work to fix their glitches, although some still exist. The roadmap will be revealed soon, again I don't have high hopes. I think devs should look at the positive takeaways from it. The gameworld still feels very much alive. So did Fable when it released, despite it also not delivering on the hype. My two cents, many will disagree.
@@baloothesuperpug7092 "Classics"?? Oh what, you think that when a game gets released and becomes successful it would be classic? NOOO a classic is like cartoon show from past that you still remember
@@zherean42069 Thats why black and white is a classic until this day dungeon keeper is a classic until this day! Its not about how succefull it is! Its about the worth the game has for you! And for many peopel black and white and dungeon keeper are good games! has nothing to do with what you wrote! Or how succefully a game is!
@@baldygrey2779 Having a roadmap does not make a game good, in fact you should not even praise a game company for having the "sell the game now and finish it later" mentalty.
Well researched, nice vid.
Watching this now, it's kind of wild about his promise for realtime weather in Black and White. All the while, Microsoft already had this tech working and implemented this feature in their Flight Simulator released a year before. Of course, every Flight Simulator MS did, after that, continued to have said feature.
But him selling an NFT game after 2023? Wow. That couldn't have aged worse for him.
Even today I still believe that Project Milo was never in development or even a concept.
The reveal video was a cleverly crafted piece of deceptive marketing, that used acting and people pretending to be working on making the game.
Maybe at one point Molyneux's over promising was him being passionate, but I seriously doubt that was the case. I think Peter was deceptive because deception got him far in the industry.
Peter Molyneux: The Man who Cried It will be in the game, I promise!
Honestly this should be on a billboard
I remember when hyping Fable 2, he said, there will be a "dynamic fighting system" (or something like that) where the enemies will use the environment in combat. For example will throw chairs at you, jump on the chandeliers like in pirate movie.
I was skeptical that this guy kicked off the false promise era until discovering that project milo and whats inside the cube were the same person. Now I kinda believe it lmao.
just played fable 2 again the other day, still is fantastic, such a shame about this guy, had much respect for him
All things considered, he did manage to bring some great games with his wacky ideas.
Syndicate, Populous and Black & White were games I really enjoyed...
Speaking of which, Bullfrog also made Dungeon Keeper...
And I liked Fable for what it was.
Even though most of the games weren't what they had been envisioned, they still achieved very interesting goals... Each one is rather unique... Although, as time went by, it seems like it just got more and more shallow and kinda lost itself... There was a spark there, it just died down.
I have to say, he was a master of the god-simulator genre, and even though allot of it was lies, what came out eventually, still gave me a heck of a fun childhood.
So, despite all his faults, that eventually led him to the modern "nothing maker"... He still managed to make awesome stuff, and I have some room of appreciation for it.
Let's admit it... Rather rare to see wacky ideas attempted so much today, and he kept at it until the well dried up.
I couldn't care less about any of this, he had a big role in many of my most favourite games growing up.
He should partner up with Tommy Tallarico!
The definition of fake it until you make it
Definition of keep faking it and not making it.
@@rempseaheinamies9414 ya know what? Perfectly valid response lol
@@danelykins4409 It just works.
Today there is Todd Havard
A game of over 1000 planets 🪐 maybe too much.
i am pleased to find this video about a funny entrepreneur
Molyneux should run for office in the US. Lol
He's be too honest.
Great video
On one hand Peter's ideas inspired me, on the other I was really let down, especially by the cancellation of B.C. There were actually probably thousands upon thousands of innovative game designers out there that had great ideas, too, and knew not to promise them prematurely. The cancellation of B.C. was a very sad let down for me for many years.
He may be a liar but I love me some Fable 1 & 2
At 0:21, you can see the youtube link that Thomas Mahler used as an example for Cyberpunk's 2077 mismanagement says "BeatEmUps" at the end.
I already know that has to be the "CDPR Are All Liars" episode he made. Highly suggest anybody else check that if they haven't, Woods is the shit.
Looking forward to seeing this channel grow mate, this is really good curated content.
man I looked up that thread after you mentioned it and boy did my perception on Mahler change after that. Dude is straight up toxic as a dev and as an employer. I'd also recommend to look up that thread to anyone else.
@@Humongous_Hongonggolongus Yeah, I definitely have to say that posting pages and pages of scathing, insulting material in a thread where "Game Director at Moon Studios" appears under your name and pfp is probably not the smartest thing you could do, as far as optics.
@@Humongous_Hongonggolongus Oh my, someone you dont know that makes video games has been an asshole to someone else you dont know ? And you never have been an ass ? yall should stop, just...stop lmao. Pretend to be "all holy" fucks that never did anything wrong in their lives but judge others that do,right.
@@dylanherron3963 the good thing is, that he got called out in said thread for the toxic dude that he is. I mean there are like 50 people against him and only him and 2 others that defend him & his opinion.
Billy Mitchell will sue you over this for giving liars a bad name.
Well isn't godus like really popular on mobile
I actually still have this but I found this video :(
Honestly Black and White is one of my favorite gams of all time! Projects like Milo were a disappointment thought and I think he got too ambitious as time went on.
This is the most honest success story I've ever heard.
Actually I like this guy
Great video, BaityBait did something very similar.
And not even half the visits
BaityBait "."
The thing is about Peter is that he is old and he can piss off fans easily and he did say some things that he shouldnt have said on one of the E3 stages but that was a little controversial moment for him, like the Oak Tree which he shouldnt have done that. I wonder if he is still involved in gaming, he is old but does he have any interest of a new video game or he could go down the Fable route again, Black and White but more improved and can have Co-Op multiplayer online so other people can help you. Has he ever looked at the Xbox Series X and think he could make big open world games even, something like Fable or Fable Open World.
Few game designers have a body of work as strong or as influential to the industry as this guy. Never forget that. Entire genres wouldn't exist if it wasn't for him.
Still remmember talking to His Fanboys back in the day that it is BS talk. People are just naive and pay big money just for empty words.
so why do we hate Peter Molyneux cuss he told some lies
but Todd Howards he is a bigger liar and all we do is make memes about him but still respect him
i mean the guy fabricated an entire game, and not just any game but some big ai thing
King of game design
He lied, lied and lied. Then deceived and lied some more. That's how he will always be remembered.
Sad case, Populous 2 and Syndicate were awesome games. Pop 2 is still the best of its genre.
Maybe he lied, but when i was playing his games i never saw his interviews and damn were they enoyable.
nice vid.
Good Ol Peter Lietoyeux
Of course this guy ends up selling NFTs for a vaporware game.
The Elon Musk of the gaming world.
Molyneux... the Musk of gaming
Interesting video mate. I'll say this about Molyneux though, he's an absolute master at delivering games that really nail what they are meant to do and feel unique. He's had so many huge hits
I don't think he's a liar, I would say he's too ambitious with no way to deliver on his original plans.
Yep exactly.He was very smart and had alot of very innovative ideas,he just talked too much about what he wanted to see in his games that technology back then couldnt handle yet.
After project milo. Definitely a liar.
I can think of someone who is 16-times worse, in detail.
Or the No Man Sky guy..
Thanks to a one letter mistake, we experienced amazing games. The would would have been deprived of such incredible games if such mistake never happened. And that's life, just a sequence of random events leading to random good and bad things.
Come on. There’s straight up lies in this video ironically. A lot of the is taking from the video from the channel on here Peope love games, and the words have been completely changed. He never said if you say something it will come true. He said the problem is when you say something people then take that for gospel and that’s it then you said it will be game when it’s nothing more than an idea at that stage!
Again when he left bulldog he didn’t convince them to stay to finish the dungeon game, they asked him as they laid out the consequences of him leaving, so he compromised to help them out! Again, this is all from the people loves game upload. This whole video has taken from that interview and twisted or out changed everything he said😂
Lying about someone lying. Ironic this video! 😂
Pete's not a liar, he just exaggerates. His vision was too ambitious for any game developers to truly create and execute. He did create the greatest role playing game of all time with Fable
lying is no crime, it is perfectly legal. Bullfrog Games made DUNGEON KEEPER which was soon after development patched to run with 3dfx support for the most insane graphics at that time where you had 100+ monsters being animated without lag on the screen. this guy is a genius. get real.
Fable was an another game people talk about to this day. Just a few days ago I mentioned Fable to someone as a game example to make a point...
This video is just a joke...
There are areas of the law where deception is in fact important. It's called fraudulence, deceptive businesses practices, deceptive sales tactics.
"Lying is no crime" 🤡🤡🤡🤡
doesent think peter is bad at all! He was making all of my time favorite games! Like dungeon kepper or black and white! Alone for that hes always one of my prefert video game producer!!
He is literally a scam artist.
Joseppi has a better video
Molyneux and Todd should marry. They would be the perfect couple.
