I remember being excited for shit too (I fucking loved Fable despite what Molyneux failed to deliver on) but I wasn't going to go shit all over the guy.
My biggest video game conundrum was how the fuck did a series get MORE shallow as tech advanced like Fable managed to do?

I wasn't fooled by No Mans Sky or Fable or Destiny, but I bought into the Spore hype really hard back in the day. I remember they used the fact that the creator was knighted by the Queen or some shit like that as a sign that a video game would be revolutionary... omg what a moron I was.
As long as you enjoyed Fable, who cares if it was considered a bomb. Did you enjoy the series as a whole or just the first game? Legend of Dragoon was considered a bomb and I thought it was the shit.
