GDC announcement. Good enough?

After Fable TLC was released there was an outcry for a second Fable. Then Lionhead announced that they were working on the project. After a l-o-n-g wait, the impatience of gamers like myself was overwhelming. Then the GDC announcement came. The announcement was astounding in that we really had little more than a few concept pictures and the teaser to discuss before. Now we have a dog, gender selection, guns, a vast world, more stuff, a side-quest for every building and a family. Was it enough? Do you feel teased or are you satisfied with the amount of information that has be released?

Personally, I would feel much better if Peter had released a little more information on the character creation. Such as, can you design your characters physical appearance. Some more detail on the progress of the game other than they can move around in it.

The dog idea, I believe, can work well if it is properly placed in the game. When the game is released we will all have a chance to judge the pup for ourselves.

So essentially, we did learn about the game from GDC, however, I found myself a bit let down. Let down from the quantity of information not the actual subject matter discussed. Maybe I am just too anxious for the game to come out and am not giving the GDC announcement the credit it deserves.

The info is weak because instead of trying to "wow" you with the "Look at our amazing game and it's features and blah blah blah!"-attitude, they are going with the "The game will be great and totally awsome, but I really can't tell you about it.... yet"-attitude.


This might be a good tactic, but I think it also has to do with them gagging Peter to avoid over-hyping.

The Fable I announcement was epic. The game, although awesome, was not what I thought it was. I agree completely.

There will be more announcements made when they have a better idea of what ideas will make the final cut for sure. So far they have gave us just enough info to get out minds working but more will come in time.

They have just been giving little info at a time keeping gamers like myself alive....while not over hyping the game but also making sure no one forgets that fable 2 will be awesome....tricky tricky *******s if you ask me....rather than giving you everything at once calmming you down and possibly overhyping the game they are playing it safe...meh...
