Considering how important it is that Fable releases on time, it's interesting to compare its theoretical release schedule to some other games. The best possible example is The Elder Scrolls 6, which Bethesda says won't release for many years. That makes it strange and surprising that Bethesda took the time to confirm the game already. Sitting on the public knowledge of The Elder Scrolls 6 without addressing it at all seems like a surefire way to make fans impatient for n
This is when Kishibe Rohan realises that this story, being told to him by the man himself, is impossible. He is dead. Or, should be. And that’s when he reveals that he is alive and well, because he is the same as he has always been: a cheat, with zero empathy for those around him. He used his vast wealth and his legion of servants to quite literally have someone else take his place, forever. The one that has seemingly acted as a corn magnate (sorry I cannot get over this) for years and raised his young daughter is actually a servant that has undergone plastic surgery to look like his master, and the master did the same so he could blend in amongst the servants: a trick so intricate it even had the stupid psychic Stand curse fooled. I also have no doubt that this is where Hideo Kojima gleaned Metal Gear Solid 5 ’s big twist f
Fable , the incredible original Xbox-exclusive RPG , has been around for almost two decades. The land of Albion offers players a beautifully realized fantasy world, but with that comes an almost intimidating amount of lore, characters, and secrets. Fable is not only a renowned game because of its seminal gameplay and storytelling ( which is often underrated today ), but also because it can be an overwhelming experience for first-time play
This selfish man sitting in the confessional booth is here not because he truly feels guilty, or sad, but because he wishes to escape the fate he has created for himself. He felt no empathy for the homeless man he swiftly worked to death, and he never thought twice about the servants he had in his charge. In fact, he didn’t even seem to care for his wife much; he just wanted a supermodel, because men are supposed to want these things. This man is the epitome of desire, using any means necessary to get what he wants, or what he should want - and the means here was c
However, the announcement of the Fable reboot isn't the same as a new Fable game coming out three years later. Under normal circumstances, it'd make sense that a new Fable game could be made in the three years between now and Fable Fortune 's release. That's not quite the case. The Fable IP spent a couple years being handed from studio to studio, and only now does it seem to be solidly under Playground Games' control. That kind of instability explains why the Fable reboot's announcement doesn't come with a release date. It probably still has a lot of development ahead of
Consequences exist, but unlike in Aesop’s fables, the consequences rarely fall upon those who deserve them in the modern world. They just get pushed onto others who are forced to writhe in the background, cursing those that put them there, but never seeing justice. A bizarre Adventure Game Updates indeed, but one that is more poignant than e
So he pitches Santa on the idea of forming their own super team. Many elves have powers that are similar to the superpowers of Earth's Greatest Super Heroes, so why not enter the good fight with a team of their own? Unfortunately, Santa shoots down the idea, but that doesn’t stop Arvo. It just means that he has to prove his concept by running away to join the Justice League, and show everyone that his plan is a good one and he’s not a crazy-elf. His idea is sound. That’s the set-up and the story takes off from th
It may seem like only yesterday to some, but it has now been almost four years since the release of the last new Super Mario game. The last time that fans have had to wait this long for a new entry in the series was way back in 2002, with Super Mario Sunshine releasing some six years on from Super Mario 64 . Given that a sequel to Super Mario Odyssey is yet to be officially announced, that unwanted record may well be in jeopa
To be incredibly brief, the first episode of Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan is about one incredibly lucky man who deserves absolutely nothing, and tells Rohan all about it whilst sat in a confessional booth. This man meets a homeless person, then promptly treats them like garbage, putting the starving man to work, and swiftly killing them with some literally back-breaking labour. The only upside to all of this is that he is now forever cursed by an antagonistic Stand that swears to take revenge at the happiest point in the man’s l
SR: Fans will also be thrilled to see the creative team assembled for this release, and Mark Buckingham returning for this arc. Can you speak to that collaboration, behind the scenes with this series ret
