I do believe I saw fable being mentioned for ps5 too actually, so it may be day 1 multiplat. Now if only it was a good game. I'm among those burned by the original fable and I still want my tree that has a cut and grows differently depending on it. Apparently this new one does away with the morality system entirely, so no more eating baby chickens for easy evil points and demon horns I guess.
I. Want. My. Tree.
(It didn't help that fable 1 was a criminally short game, maybe 12-14 hours long, I beat it in a single sitting one random saturday after being hype for over a year)
I hope it isn't Fable: Veilguard. Nothing I've seen about Fable really strikes me as a must buy kind of game. It looks like clunky combat and goofy mechanics.
If you're referring to that one YouTube video you may have found in your video recommendations, ignore the fucker.
My older brother has been interested in Fable since the second game, and he loves the franchise. He don't give a fuck about online discourse. I showed him the videos, and he's more than excited. I am not hardcore into the franchise, but I did enjoy the games I've played, and more than willing to give these devs a chance.
Fable is quintessential British fairy tale comedy, it's got half a foot into a Monty Python skit, so you have to forgive it a certain degree of silliness. You have to keep the distinction going into it, less fantasy epic, more silly fairy tale.
Also unlike Veilguard this game doesn't have much to live up to. So just being pretty decent will be good enough for most people I feel.
The second game is easily the best one, it introduced the doggo and the shiny breadcrumbs as a waypoint replacement and generally fleshed everything out a lot more.
I mean, I still want Fable II on PC. I'm not gonna martyr myself for it but I'd be very happy if it happened.
If you want to hear more users than us talking abou that, I suggest either Famiboards, or Retrogametalk. More so the former, as a lot of users have a great amount to say. Pretty much everyone hates MS and Sony right now. Blue Point being closed down for the dumbest of reasons.
AC series will have new leaderships starting today:
Of the three, I have hopes for Jean Guesdon; He seems to be the one who is most familiar with the franchise, given how his roots trace all the way back to AC2.
But most importantly, please actually have better writing + make stealth matter.
Not sure how much control that snake Guillemot will have, but here's hoping for the best

Good to hear, I really can't get that excited because it's Ubisoft.
The people who say the new Fable is "too silly", either never played the first game (or any of the games prior for that matter), or are usual fake fan grifters who don't know shit, but try to score points by acting like they know what the game is all about.
I think saying fable can be too silly is a fundamental misunderstanding of fable. Now if you wanna complain about them removing the dog or the morality system, that makes more sense. Especially the morality system has been the most iconic feature of the game and showcased in the covers and everything.
Ah yes Fable. The quintesential grimdark game with its deep themes

Awesome! PC port will probably happen 6 months - 1 year later, which I can wait.Insomniac Games (@insomniacgames)

Wolverine in September.
Decided to go back to the gameplay trailer; It actually looks badass. Wolverine leaping all over the place actually makes sense, and I bet HP recovery will have in-world explanation of his healing factor.
Although, that begs the quetion of how difficulty balance will look like? I mean theoretically Wolverine can survive just about any conventional weapons, and IIRC the only way to kill him is by drowning, suffocation from molten metal, large energy blasts that turns him into a dust, or destroying his celluar structure; Maybe reduce how quickly he heals himself?
Typically video games give him decently good HP regen outside of combat and the challenge is just avoiding damage long enough to recover. There might be radiation bullets or something that stop his regen for a time in certain levels.
