Fable 2 Development : Podcast with Peter and MajorNelson

Podcast with Peter and MajorNelson

Published Monday, March 17, 2008 1:41 PM by Sam

If you're not familiar with MajorNelson you're missing out on something. He's working for Microsoft Game Studios (aka Xbox) as a programming director but in his spare time also manages his blog MajorNelson.com. He got about 30 minutes last week to shoot a few questions in the direction of Peter Molyneux, talking about Fable 2, Lionhead and games in general. It's certainly worth listening to as it's loaded with information. Plus there's a nice plug for the entire Lionhead and Fable 2 community (at about 70 minutes).

	toddquest said: Great Podcast I finally got a chance to listen to it Here are some notes There are three different XBL games from PopCap Games Mages Tower, Wizards Dice, Keystone If you own all of Bowerstone you become Mayor of Bowerstone If you own all of Bowerstone and the surronding area you become King of Bowerstone If you own EVERYTHING you become Emporer of Albion There will be a Wealth Morph ~ Wealthy can mean wimpy (They mentioned Bill Gates ) There are Romancing Points that you get for doing certain actions Peter's in game Son Cried at the father's death in the demo and was taken out. Achievements will require sacrifice. There will be a Purity and Corruption Scale Peter Molyneux's first words were clucking because he was raised near a chicken ranch hence he hates chickens and therefore he put the chicken kicking in the game and it will be in Fable 2 March 18, 2008 8:26 AM
