Fast forward many years and the man becomes absurdly wealthy thanks to an inheritance from a relative and, um, becoming a corn magnate. As in, he sells Corn Flakes, popcorn, and corn chips thanks to the corn he grows on the land he owns through his inheritance. I told you it was bizarre. He lives in a huge house, has a small army of live-in servants, is married to a supermodel, and has a daughter he loves very much. One day while walking the streets of Venice with his young daughter, he sees her smile and earnestly believes it to be the happiest he has ever been. That’s when the Stand stri
Stand users - those who can harness the abilities of mysterious personified psychic entities - are attracted to one another, and are certainly not limited to those friendly with the Joestar family. So, it’s about time that we are finally seeing more from this odd world of hostile psychic beings that isn’t related to a tiny cast of characters and their extended relations. Kishibe Rohan’s absurd antics make for a good way to tell those stories - and that brings me to the first episode of Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan, which is everything I wanted from a JoJo spin-
The Stand throws the bag of popcorn at the man and tells him; "You can see your destiny through a trivial, little thing." The task is trivial, yes, but the stakes are high, and the popcorn is emblematic of everything this man is. He’s a corn magnate - as ridiculous as that is - and this symbol of his success is also the harbinger of his undoing. It feels to me like a postmodern Aesopica - Aesop’s Fables - and the untimely undoing of once humble, but often selfish characters within. When a goose lays golden eggs the owners slice it open in search of gold surely hidden inside, only to find nothing. This unrivalled greed has always been an undeniable sin, but it takes on a different flavour when under capital
Fable should also invest heavily into the game's magic system so that it has a breadth of options for players to choose from to use magic in aggressive and non-aggressive ways. Fable should also bring back the co-op that fans of the series love, but it could do a lot to improve on past iterations as well. Allowing players to make vastly different builds would allow multiplayer to be more rewarding while allowing online players to leave a bigger footprint on other players' worlds would be great for players doing an entire co-op run of the g
Fable has an added layer of depth to it that many other similar RPGs didn't at the time: its morality system. In reality, the morality system at play here really only comes down to your character becoming good or evil, with some gray area in between. While it might not be as nuanced as the system employed in the Mass Effect series, Fable wants you to think about how your actions affect the world of Albion and its inhabita
Another opportunity that Fable could take advantage of is upgrading the game's combat system. Every hero should still be able to wield melee weapons, ranged weapons, and magic, but Fable would benefit greatly from increasing the depth of all the options available to the player. Weapons that all feel vastly different from one another would help players be able to better flesh out their own unique playstyle while also adding some much-needed depth to the series' combat encount
Throughout their journey through Bugaria, Team Snakemouth may come across rare Crystal Berries tucked away in various nooks and crannies. While they serve as a neat collectible, their actual use doesn't become apparent until the quest "Requesting Assistance" is completed. This quest unlocks access to the Underground Tav
Bug Fables is a great third-party game that has flown under the radars of many gamers. Yet Nintendo fans, particularly those of the Paper Mario series, should enjoy it. From its opening hours, players will notice similarities between Bug Fables and Paper Mario , including its storybook aesthetic, whimsical soundtrack, and sense of humor. This carries on to its gameplay, as Bug Fables features turn-based combat , overworld puzzles and platforming, and of course a multitude of sideque
It is disappointing for fans that Fable did not make an appearance at this year's E3 , but hopefully, fans will receive some official news soon. There are a lot of questions surrounding the mysterious new revival of the series and it is under tremendous pressure to bring Fable back in a big way for modern audiences. The team at Playground Games is immensely talented, however, and definitely has the ability to deliver something great for fans and new players al

It's so important to be aware of the Silver Keys prior to starting a playthrough of Fable, because most of the chests you'll stumble across require a specific number to open. There is a risk and reward system at play with the Silver Keys. Do you use the five keys you have in your inventory to open a chest then and there, or do you wait until you find a more valuable chest later on that demands a higher key count? Think it thro
