Bullfrog was a lost legend of development. Back when Peter Molyneux wasn't a pile of lies in a trenchcoat.

I fell for the lies every time. I felt like a teenage girl dating a cheating ex, telling myself he really changed this time, it would be different.

Well maybe we needed a dog control button, Peter!

Maybe I'm still not over it. I'll see myself out.

After Fable was where I drew the line.

The crazy thing was Fable was actually good! Once you got past Peter's grandiosity and fabrications, it was a fun, albeit a little shallow, experience.

But Peter had to be out there carrying on about how we could cut down a tree and that same tree would be a stump in the future, or something like that.
