Fable Unveiled At Xbox Showcase With Impressive New Trailer

@dominicwow:

It’s not in engine it’s in game footage there’s a difference.

@joecollin: My sentiments exactly!

Give me Master Chief, a nano tech suite, mech, or space suite over this any time!

@Thuban_23: Don’t hold your breath. Media is only “quip” funny now because actual humor offends to many people. Fable was always willing to cross a few lines and let the player act however they wanted. We’ll find out if they stayed true to the name or went Saints Row on us.

@Thuban_23: Thx, thats the way i see it too.
I dont find the trailer funny.
I will expand it to this years and last years movies aswell...every movie which tried to be funny/edgy/woke kinda failed in my eyes

@kanakid: The guys who did Forza Horizon are not the same doing Fable.

Playground formed a 2nd studio and hired devs who are familiar with the genre.

This of course doesnt mean that Fable will be automatically a winner but we should get away from the "ppl who made only racing games prior are making Fable" meme.

@s1taz4a3l: No, it's Moss lol

@gamerbum: I am an XB fan, but losing faith now. I don't feel Hellblade 2 will win any graphics awards. But you take a game like PS's Horizon & that is graphically stunning. So much color and ambient visuals that it is hard to compete with Hellblade's dark & dreary atmosphere.

Hellblade is impressive on facial capture.

I really wish MS would make graphics like Horizon in a sci-fi Male lead FPS, it would make my year!

@gamerbum: really? Check out the ps5 a bit more, it is also on par when it comes the graphics

@cboye18: i was put off a bit as well. I thought Fable was more than just a generic take on a fantasy trope (this case being the giant’s house setting). Im sure they have a lot more to show, and the game does indeed look really great, nice art direction, good graphics. Not a fan of real life actors taking the spotlight (only exception being maybe Keanu), but let’s give them the chance they need. They can surely mesmerise us like they did many years ago

@cboye18: I thought it nailed the Fable sense of humor quite well, actually. A lot of references and such given to the previous games.

Saints Row has always been about being edgy to the point of annoying, and that trailer didn't seem that way at all.

Might have been a bit closer to an "R" rating than the traditional Fable "PG-13" rating, but that might just be because standards have changed and the last Fable game was what? Like 10+ years ago?

What does this mean?

Sounds like you're upset there are people of color in your fantasy game, but that can't be true. That'd be crazy to think that...

@tsunami2311: They tricked me too. I thought it was going to be mostly gameplay with some in game footage. Looks like mostly in game CG trailers.

@mooglestar:

It wasn’t CG it was in game footage. Try harder bruh!

@mooglestar: yeah they announced it that far back. I don’t think the Playground Games version is that far along though. I believe they started over on the game from near zero just 2-3 years ago.

Not that there shouldn’t be some footage though. CGI trailer for an announced game years into the process is pretty lame.

@mooglestar: It's not CG. It's the game engine graphics.
