No, Fuck You Peter Molyneux

"Films, TV, even hallowed books, are just rubbish because they don't involve me," [Peter Molyneux] said. "It's a sea of blandness."

Yeah, everything should revolve around you. And not in some difficult way, like having to see a story through the eyes of another character, or appreciate something that you're not actually a part of. No, everything should involve you in a way that's more immersive. And by that, I mean you should stare at it through a screen and a haze of technology and do basically what the game designer thinks you should do.

By the same token, newspapers and magazines should only feature stories about your life, which are the only things that are important because there's no way someone else's experiences could possibly have an application to you. The music industry needs to change its tune too. Not to mention cocktail parties: how many times have you gone somewhere and people were talking about something other than you?

It's all about you, Peter Molyneux. You and your tiny, tiny ego. Did I say ego? I meant something else, let me assure you.

Talk about rubbish.
