When I say the aging sucked, I just mean it didn't work within the world they created. You finish a bunch of quests and head back to the guild to level up, and you come out 30 years older, or even more if you're a magic user. No one else ages along with you and you end up being several times older than your older sister by the end.
It was also very hyped up to be an open-world game which was totally wrong since there were mostly paths you had to follow. Peter Molyneux said several things about the original Fable game that turned out to be untrue like the above mentioned open-world game play. Hopefully he has learned his lesson about what to say.

Below is a synopsis of his speech at GDC08:
