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
In Fable III, the player can discover a retirement home for Demon Doors behind a Demon Door in Mistpeak Valley. These Demon Doors have been a staple of the series ever since the first game. The ones in this old-folks home ramble aimlessly at you, but one Door, in particular, may catch the eye of some fans. It's the Brightwood Demon Door that players met in Fable
Fast forward many years and the man becomes absurdly wealthy thanks to an inheritance from a relative and, um, becoming a corn magnate. As in, he sells Corn Flakes, popcorn, and corn chips thanks to the corn he grows on the land he owns through his inheritance. I told you it was bizarre. He lives in a huge house, has a small army of live-in servants, is married to a supermodel, and has a daughter he loves very much. One day while walking the streets of Venice with his young daughter, he sees her smile and earnestly believes it to be the happiest he has ever been. That’s when the Stand stri
It is also the single best implementation of cause-and-effect relationships I have ever seen in a game. A lot of this has to do with the Pratchett-esque liveliness of the characters, but it can at least partially be attributed to how ambitious its long-term consequences are, too. You’re given a year to raise the arbitrary sum of 6.5 million gold, and you can do this by selling out allies, refusing to build hospitals, or working as a legitimate business owner in a cutthroat early capitalist industrial regime. No matter what you do, you’re going to be bitten in the arse somehow, which is always refreshingly real in the most tongue-in-cheek way possible.
BW: Cursemas isn’t connected to Fables , it’s a standalone tale about Arvo, one of Santa’s elves who doesn’t quite fit in up at the North Pole. He’s a pooka, which is a variety of shapeshifting elf, and works in the Black Gang, which is the crew who spends the year filling the (almost infinite) coal hopper on Santa’s sleigh. They load it with lumps of coal, destined for all the bad boys and girls. It’s hard, back-breaking work. But Arvo has an idea: If there were more superheroes in the world, providing good examples for growing boys and girls, there would be fewer bad ones who only get a lump of coal for Christ
Fable is a classic gaming franchise that's deeply beloved by its fans. It's due for a new installment soon, over a decade after the last mainline game, Fable 3, released in 2010 . There was a small Kinect game released a few years later in 2012, but it didn't amaze fans like its predecessors. Hopefully, the next one will be impressive enough to meet the hype ( the company is hiring new writers as of this writi
If you played Fable III for the first time at a young, impressionable age and were horrified by the opening cutscene, in which an ambitious chicken leaves home to explore the city but it's implied he's killed by the ending, then there is good n
Sock's grave can be found in Fable II reading "Meredith Sock. Your novels suck." Despite this widespread hatred, these books seem to consistently crop up in Albion; in Fable II, they can be purchased at book stores, and in Fable III, some Reliquary bookcases seem to hold complete volumes of his wo
Although this occurrence can be explained by the developers forgetting to take out the voice line when creating the unicorn, it still doesn't make any sense since most people wouldn't name a horse that they've just met and will only use for a few hours, let alone give it the exact same name as their horse that is waiting outs
The Land of a Thousand Fables is a beautiful place that Geralt is able to explore in The Witcher 3's Blood and Wine DLC , and it is widely considered to be one of the best creations in the entire game. The Land of a Thousand Fables has many different locations to see and new enemies to fight, which adds a breath of fresh air to the large
I’ve been a diehard Fable head for years. I even wrote an ode to the much-loathed but actually-very-interesting Fable 3 a couple of weeks ago. I know Fable 3 was weak in loads of ways, but it experimented with some weird shit, and I can respect that. Plus we’ve always got Fable death Stranding 2 as a bonafide Perfect Game, so I don’t mind if Fable 3 isn’t the most replayable experience ever designed. Anyway, I digress — Fable 2 co-op was brilliant, wasn’t
