Removed from sale: Peter Molyneux's Godus and Godus Wars, never finished
Godus and Godus Wars, infamous crowdfunded disasters from Peter Molyneux, have both been removed from sale on Steam.
Peter Molyneux drama is delicious.
I'm genuinely more surprised that it was still being sold. Wow.
I just wanted a successor to black & white God damnit. What a letdown it turned out to be.
I've been trying out The Universim recently. It has a lot of the same ideas, but gets rid of many which I felt didn't work. Most notably, there is no creature bound to your will. I think the game is better for the omission. Version 1.0 is slated for January, and is supposed to include interplanetary colonization.
That's the whole point of Black and White though?
I remember all the marketing and promises for Black and White 2 that were never realised. It doesn't feel like they really managed the first sequel, let alone another one.
I remember playing this game when it first came out as a mobile game. Super cool concept, but I also remember hearing the drama from the start. I definitely thought this game had been abandoned a looong time ago.
I remember loving it when it came out for mobile and really liking the updates for a while. Then I didn't play it for some time as I had done most stuff and when I came back it had had some big update that completely changed it and I really didn't like it.
I remember that during the development of Black & White they had a journalist writing about its development and how exciting it was going to be.
Black & White got realized, but these interviews seemed a very fishy way of hyping the game and it's when I got wary of Molyneaux grand claims
I remember reading those Dev journals too, but I feel like they helped me to get more out of B&W than most other people.
Yes, it was all about building hype, but it meant that I played more in a "find-your-own-fun-and-set-your-own-goals" way, which I think was what the original intent was.
Everyone's biggest complaint was that the missions were half-baked and felt like they were thrown in right at the end. And they were right.
Wow how far he has fallen and what a way to ruin your legacy
