In the world of Fable, crime unfortunately exists. Those who are so inclined can certainly cause a ruckus and an uproar. Should you go down this devious path, the guards will stop you and demand you pay a hefty fine. Failing to part with the cash will see the player set u
Grinding through the colosseum is some of the most fun the player can have in Fable II. Whether it be testing your shiny new weapons or grinding out precious XP points to upgrade your character, the colosseum yields hours of unfettered fun. Upon scoring 15,000 points, the Royal Sceptre will be granted to the h
What separates Bug Fables' Cave of Trials from the Pit of 100 Trials is its length. The Cave of Trials is much less arduous than the Pit of 100 Trials, covering only 50 battles instead of 100. Nevertheless, this is still one of Bug Fables' toughest challenges and players should be well-prepared. Rumors tell of a special secret boss at the end of the Cave, but that is a discovery that only the most dedicated of explorers can f
In Fable, the player's choice of food and drink will affect their character. Many games let you eat 100 sweet rolls or 400 potatoes without any of those silly health ramifications that we find in the real world. In this title, should you consume too many sweets or drink too many beers, your character will often get s
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
Taking the body of his daughter, the Stand returns, plunging her young fingers into and through the skin of his neck before giving him a challenge that can, possibly, RPG Customization save his life. Flick a piece of popcorn high into the air, above the nearby streetlights, and then catch it in his mouth, three times in a row. Failure results in him losing his head. He fails, but that’s not really the point here: what fascinated me was the popc
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
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
His success was a lucky break, yes, but it also came at the cost of the lives and well-being of those around him. And now he stands in a park in Venice, praying that he can flick some popcorn into the air and land them in his mouth, all while pigeons swirl around him and the twisted visage of his daughter growls threats to his life. On the third attempt, the sun breaks through the clouds above, blinding the man and causing him to fail his final popcorn catch. Almost an act of divine intervention. The man’s head comes off, fulfilling the threats the Stand made years earl
The jack-of-all trades and master of none, the Wreckager boasts some pretty outstanding augments while being quite middling in damage output among the cutlasses in-game. That being said, using The Wreckager grants bonus gold for every foe slain with it, whilst granting the hero resistance to damage from enemies, and causes literal terror in people who witness its do
Savvy gamers will recognize Bug Fables as an homage to Nintendo's Paper Mario series. This extends not only to its aesthetic, but to its gameplay as well. if there was any doubt left, Bug Fables has even included a special endgame challenge that is more or less the equivalent of Paper Mario 's Pit of 100 Tri
The Daichi's augmentations enable its user to deal additional damage while imbuing attacks with electrical currents, not to mention, it also makes its user irresistibly beautiful. It is absolutely worth the dungeon crawl to acquire the Daichi and its damage cannot be effectively replicated by any other combination of weapons and augme
The world of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure focuses on the Joestar family for far too long. It is, after all, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, so it makes sense that this titular adventure would follow Jonathan Joestar and his descendants. However, once you’ve caught up to Part 4: Diamond Is Unbreakable , you start to see that there’s more to the world of JoJo than just one family and a cursed bloodline. Josuke Higashikata , Part 4’s protagonist, starts to take a back seat while his pals and acquaintances step into a more central role. The growth of the initially shy Koichi Hirose into the confident and assertive young lad we see at the beginning of Part 5 is emblematic of that shift. Koichi is, arguably, more of a protagonist than Josuke ever was, with more of the traditional shounen story beats associated with him as opposed to the rest of the cast. This was where it became clear that the world of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure deserved to be explored further, away from the Joestar family - and with Netflix’s Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan , we finally get just t
