"It's very much like the 80s," he said. "Back then anybody could create a game that could be hugely successful. There were no formulas or anything cast in stone.
"A few years ago it was all about fear; huge budgets and 'my franchise is bigger than your franchise'. It was all about 'who's going to create the new Call of Duty?'
"Now it's all about invention, creativity and not having any fear."

Oh Christ. Moon hoaxers are even worse than climate change deniers...

... did you honestly compare a video game designer to astronauts? And not just any, but the only human beings to step foot on the moon?
While Aldrin and Armstrong were the first to walk on the moon, there has been a total of 12 astronauts who have walked on the lunar surface. Just thought I would clear up this common misconception.

As much as I despise Molyneux, I think he has a point. These kinds of things wax and wane over time - periods of creativity and anarchy, and periods of consolidation. We've seen it happen on mobile, where in the early days it was very easy to get placement no matter your background; but now the majority of top selling games are produced by huge game factory conglomorates. The amount of indie games being trying to get placement these days is not really sustainable.

I also haven't seen Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin go around asking for money, telling us how they were going to do the biggest space trip the world has ever seen, only to have it end up being them riding the toy rocket ship outside their local Quick-E-Mart.

Give zero fucks about Polydeux's opinion.
I wish the media would stop giving him airtime.
This is about to be the top "Popular Thread" here.
Of course he gets airtime. He gets nonstop clickthroughs.
