Peter Molyneux: Most RPG's are Shit

No Comment - Post a comment

Without a doubt, one of the most popular Xbox 1 Role Playing Games (RPG's) was Fable designed Peter Molyneux's Lionhead Studios. However during a recent interview Molyneux slammed recent RPG's by claiming they are mostly shit, he then went on to state Oblivion was a really great game but the combat was really rubbish while going on to remark that most games today are too mechnically complex.

Quote:
Molyneux had privately hinted to Kikizo recently that he thought all fighting games were flawed because hardly anyone knows how to play them, and told us he'd come up with something better. We wanted to know more. "Stupidly, the ambition on this thing is I want you to measure this against any fighting game," he told Kikizo in an exclusive chat. "It's amazing for a role playing game, because most role playing games are ****! Oblivion was a great game, but the combat was rubbish; we all talked about it being rubbish. So imagine you had a great role-playing game and really, really good combat system."

Molyneux explained that games today are mechanically too hard and too difficult, and that to reach his goal, some careful thinking will be needed. Lionhead's ambition, he said, is to make a "truly great RPG". And how will he quantify the success of this ambition? "As a designer I want as many people to enjoy my game as possible. I'll put a number on that: the number is five million; that's pretty ambitious, and to do that I need to innovate."
