I just want it to be fun, silly, and a bit camp.

Everything takes itself to seriously these days and Fable never did.

[-] OrderedFromZanzibar@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah that's exactly what I want out of a new Fable game: silly campy fun. That's more important to me than graphics.

I get the urge to play 2 and 3 sometimes but there's no way to play them. The first game has so many ways to play it but no love for the others sadly

[-] bear_delune@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Both 2 & 3 are on Xbox Game Pass, 3 even has FPS Boost!

[-] OrderedFromZanzibar@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Oh dang I had no idea, it would have to be the PC version though since I don't have a current-gen Xbox anymore

[-] bear_delune@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

You can stream it from play.xbox.com

Anyone with a link to the trailer? I know I could just Google it but part of a rich experience when reading comments is links to sources and other QOL stuff.

I want to see the in game lore reason why Richard Ayoade is there.

... a fantastical foray into the fabled fjords of Fable

[-] harky@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah that was an unexpected face but I'm all for it

What game engine are they using? It's not Unreal Engine?

[-] That1Trollmonkey@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Believe it or not, they're using the Forza engine!

[-] nulldata@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

ForzaTech - the same engine used by the Forza games. Though reports from last year indicate the transition from just racing games hasn't been easy.

[-] GrimReaper711@aussie.zone 2 points 1 year ago

I wonder if the devs chose that engine to work on or if it was kind of forced on them.

I remember reading about EA seemingly forcing a lot of their dev studios to use frostbite for a while. Bioware ending up creating ME:Andromeda with it, which was full of jank. Victory games reported a ton of problems with it trying to get it running an RTS (C&C Generals 2) as well and that game ended up getting binned.

[-] bear_delune@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Playground Games previously worked on the Forza series so it was probably the one they had the most experience with even if it needed some major tweaks

[-] literalskalitzlooter@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

And Anthem, funny this game seems forgotten lol.

[-] Platypus@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Visuals are great. Great story is better.

[-] Player2@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

The person working on the lighting probably doesn't really care about that

[-] Platypus@lemmy.fmhy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I'd bet they do. It's not their job, or responsibility, sure. But they're pouring how much of their time and effort into this project? Why wouldn't they care about the story?

[-] That1Trollmonkey@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

I couldn't agree more, although I suppose the lighting director probably cares more about the lighting.

[-] MavTheHack@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Honestly a fable 3 clone with better graphics and a better endgame experience is all I'd ever need

[-] reric88@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

WHAT?! Is this real life?! THE Fable?? Dear Moses I don't know if I can withhold my excitement. Fable 2 was my top, but I liked the first 3. I don't know if I've been this excited about a new video-game since Majora's Mask

[-] user@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago

Can't search comments on jerboa, so I will ask its coming to pc right?!? Pc right?!?...

[-] Ullallulloo@civilloquy.com 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it's being made by Microsoft, so it'll be on PC and Xbox Series X/S.

[-] nodiet@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Yes. In fact I am not aware of a single Xbox published game from the last five years or so that isn't also available on pc

[-] user@lemmy.one 2 points 1 year ago

Nice. Tx bud ๐Ÿ‘

[-] FippleStone@aussie.zone 2 points 1 year ago

I think it's become a part of Xbox policy now

[-] melonpunk@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'm only interested in it if I can plant an oak seed and see the tree grow.

[-] GaryPonderosa@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Well, it will be one of the best compliments if the game actually looks like that.

If this is a classic tale of trailer footage looking better than the finished game, that dev is going to have egg on his face.

In a series that is infamous for over promising (nudge nudge peter molyneux)
