Lionhead’s Peter Molyneux has apparently resolved not to over-hype his games.

On the Fable man’s Twitter page, he addressed the recent announcement that he predicted would “upset people.”

“It was kinda off the record conversation I didn't dream it would go in the press,” he tweeted.

“I definitely [sic] have learnt my lesson about over promising. There is a ton of work to do for sure, and the team are working hard.I truly believe.”

At last week’s X10 event, Molyneux revealed Fable III will do away with the traditional XP orb system in favour of a loyalty mechanic and that player health will be displayed via ‘bleeding’ like we see in many FPS games.

In other Fable III news, Molyneux also confirmed the existence of a new continent, Arora, and a new race. Apparently, he did not have “permission.”
