BW: It’s pretty cool. We’ve been working on this for years now, ever since Mark Doyle floated the idea to me at a convention. For years I haven’t been able to tell anyone what we were working on. Now I can. So what’s it like? It’s a big relief. I’m very happy DC went along with the idea to pick the numbering up at 151, to signal that this is a continuation of the long-running series. It’s not a side-story, it’s the main story, which just happens to be continuing after a protracted br
By the time that Fable III rolls around, it seems to have been agreed that the economy does need some forced regulation, from thieves or not. One gravestone in the game points to the existence of a Robin Hood in Albion, a character notorious for redistributing wealth via unconventional me
SR: Fans will also be thrilled to see the creative team assembled for this release, and Mark Buckingham returning for this arc. Can you speak to that collaboration, behind the scenes with this series ret
In the second game, the Door asks the player to dress up silly and bring him cheese, of all things, before he would agree to open up. Here in Fable III, the Door admits that he had no idea what to ask and made that request up on the spot, hoping the Hero would just give
Perhaps all the options make the game seem longer in the beginning, especially on subsequent playthroughs. Players were meant to play this game multiple times to experience the different paths. Unfortunately, that can make the intro a little boring after a wh
BW: Batman vs Bigby was written with the idea that some of the readers will be new to Bigby and Fables. Everything essential that you need to know is already cooked into the story. You don’t need to be Fables-wise to fully enjoy it. But that’s not to say a reader couldn’t enhance the experience by starting to read Fables too. In fact, I hope many new readers will be inspired to come to Fables as a result of this t
Another game that's had its fair share of development issues, Skull and Bones generated plenty of excitement for its potential appearance at Ubisoft's E3 2021 showcase, but just last month the publisher announced another delay for the project. Because of the timing of the announcement, it seems like Ubisoft wanted to get ahead of the rumors surrounding Skull and Bones ' appearance at E3 and temper expectations. The publisher has plenty of other games to talk about for its show, but it's a shame that it seems its highly anticipated pirate adventure won't be one of them. Skull and gaming avatar Immersion Bones has been pushed back to 2022 or 2023, so there's still much to be seen before the game finally relea
BW: For the Fables side of things the line doesn’t need to be drawn, because Fables has included the premise of all of these hundreds of different worlds from the very beginning. From Batman’s point of view, it’s potentially a bit trickier, because sometimes the DCU has been very open to the notion of many, many worlds out there, and sometimes it hasn’t b
For a game that is almost twenty years old, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind still holds up remarkably well. The tale of the Nerevarine and their adventures laid the groundwork for countless WRPGs since and the vast amount of customization and exploration will always make the game worth returning f
Also formerly known as Project Athia , Forspoken is a new IP being developed exclusively for the PlayStation 5 by Luminous Productions and published by Square Enix. While Square Enix has a show, it has already been pretty clear about what exactly it'll be showcasing. While there's definitely room for surprises, because of Forspoken 's existence as a PS5 exclusive , it doesn't seem like the title will be making an appearance. Sony has been notably absent from E3 for a few years now, but the company often times does its own events during the summer. It's much more likely that Forspoken will make its next appearance during a PlayStation event than at E3 2
Considered by many one of the most iconic indie RPGs ever, Undertale is deserving of the praise it receives as a truly wacky video game. Choices and dialogue options are the most engaging aspects of the game and players will often find themselves second guessing every option they cho
Similar to The Elder Scrolls 6 , very little is known about Playground Game's upcoming Fable 4 . The game was announced in a teaser trailer last summer; however, no news has surfaced on the game's development. So little concrete evidence is actually known about Fable 4 that its official title remains unannounced, so the game still seems to be in the early stages of development. Microsoft has plenty of upcoming games to talk about during its showcase and it's not entirely out of the question that Fable 4 might be one of them, but with how early the game still seems to be, it feels unlikely that any substantial news is com
He disguised in it a chaotic edit that made most players brush it off as an exciting promo. But, as players progressed through the game, it's almost criminal how much the trailer gave away. The marketing even went so far as to show the death scenes of some pretty major charact
