It seems no matter how many promises he makes, Peter Molyneux just can’t stop boasting about his games. But y’know what, we can’t really blame him for it, because he’s such a wonderful guy either way.
In an interview with IGN, Molyneux claimed that Fable III will be sporting “the greatest cast that any computer game has ever had,” which is a bold claim for sure. Not only is John Cleese along for the ride as the player’s butler, but Stephen Fry returns are Reaver. Jonathan Ross is also in, playing a yet undefined part.
But it’s not the cast itself you should be excited about, but how their performances are integrated into the game:
“This is not like traditional dialogue – we went into a studio with John Cleese and I think he’d never done anything like this ever before, because we had to say ‘if the player is like this, how are you going to react’. It was a very interesting process.”
Though it won’t be easy. Fable 3 is going to have to contest with the likes of Ripper, Wing Commander 4 and Red Alert 3. Say what you want about the quality of the games, they had some star studded casts.
