The first 30 minutes of Fable III worries Peter Molyneux, mostly because there's no fighting in them. Earlier today he wrote on his Twitter that he had been playing the opening, and asked if that's too long.
A few hours later he explained that "there is no combat because it is so dramatic, and that drama has little room full combat." Well, then. I guess there was no room for worrying. And to be honest, I'm not even sure this is very noteworthy news. But if you're on Twitter, I think you should follow Peter, since interesting tidbits do slip out there.
Here's a screenshot from Fable III for good measure.
