Watching from afar having been a Populus fan many, many moons ago - i know Mr M can split opinion down the middle, but hooray for the game making it whether its him or not and i hope to be playing it one day

and posting this i realise i never played Black & White, or Black & White II
Populous was a reet good game.
I have some respect for Molyneux for his early games with Bullfrog, but everything he's released from B&W onwards has been half-baked. B&W was a particularly nasty disappointment. Zero interest in Godus for me, unless it's somehow something spectacular.
He has his foibles (ahem) but it seems lack of vision isn't one of them.
I think of Dr. Smart without the impotent hostility and laughably epic delusion.
