PS5 exclusive? Uggghhh. -
Fable on Playstation is just so weird! Seems like this game could deliver on some 22 years old promises
-
not exclusive, also coming to PC and xbox
-
Doesn't seem so. From what I've read, it should also release on PC and Xbox.
-
Oh, sick. I guess this is just PS5 cause it's a Sony vid. Thanks!
-
Excited, but never preorder. Hope performance on PC isn't garbage.

Here's the unbranded trailer that shows all the platforms it's on.

Posting the Sony one implies it's exclusive to PlayStation and derails the conversation to a place it really doesn't need to go.
Personally I'm cautious. After the way the second one ended, I never touched the third one. They kinda pull this bait-and-switch where if you try to pick the good ending, the game shames you for it. It's almost as bad as Mass Effect 3 telling you that you have three choices, giving you three paths, and not telling you which one is which. Maybe a bit worse. I mean to go through this whole game and just get shit on for trying to do the right thing. It's a bit shit.
Then again, Peter Molyneux isn't involved in this. He's making a sequel to Black and White set in the Fable universe without using the Fable name (but he is using the Albion name) so it's kinda confusing. Obvious if you know what you're looking at, though.

Look saving the dog is the only choice, you can go get another wife and kids and a million gold is so easy to get by that point in the game. My biggest problem with 2 was that I was so evil by the time I realized that I needed to get to a level of good to get an expression to open the last door and I just didn't want to do it anymore.
3 is easy bad ending or huge money grind for good ending, that is the whole game.

The money grind in 3 is easy, too. You just need to buy a house, rent it out, use that to buy another house, etc.

To get the good ending you need to become a landlord.
Plot twist: this is actually the evil ending.

You can also get really good at Lute Hero, but it takes longer.

Framerate does not look good. Hopefully that is because of YouTube, and not the game.
Looks like they conveniently chose nearly all shots that do not show character faces. Except Richard Ayoade, who looks I think better than the first trailer. Background NPC faces at 0:17, 0:19, 0:20, and 0:27 all look decent, but one of the kid's faces and one of the background NPCs on the left at 0:27 look off. Can't tell if that's just high motion and upscaler/YouTube artifacting, bad lighting, actual bad model, not enough pixels, or some combination thereof though.
I did see what I think was the original main character face that seems to be unaltered/unchanged from the first trailer, which is a bit of a shame. (Looks like they tried to hide it/obscure it because they put a ridiculous chicken hat/helmet on that model during the character creation part that the face was at (0:09) which wasn't present on the other face models. Double oof because of the male face model they switched to immediately after being literal Gaston/Prince Charming/Hercules face model.) They really did that model dirty especially considering how good Richard's face model looks here. Hopefully they can make it look more like the actual model its supposed to be based on, or perhaps they can release another trailer showing the main character face choices under more optimal viewing conditions.

I liked 3 a lot. But it's way too easy. IIRC you also can't die. You just revive with a scar. But I never "lost" until I got to that assassin for the DLC.
Also, yeah, the ending was price gouge all of your rental properties or let everyone die. Like, great, what a choice.
Gameplay was fun though. Missions were fun. Everything was good except those two things.

All of the Fable games were easy. The first one had a shield spell early in the magic tree that made hits drain mana instead of health, mana potions were cheaper than health potions, you could carry a ton of them, and using them was instantaneous even in battle. It was straight-up impossible to die unless you did so deliberately.
The shield spell also made it so getting hit didn't reset your combo (which acted as an experience multiplier), so you could grind against infinitely respawning enemies like town guards or undead in the graveyard for a while until your combo was in the hundreds, then chug a few experience potions and max out all of your stats instantly.
The only downside was that the spell made an annoying loud humming noise the entire time it was active.
I can't remember ever having trouble in the second, but I don't remember it being so broken either. It was just tuned a little too low since they wanted casual players to be able to enjoy it. The games could have used some difficulty options.

The third game also had that horrid "menuless" interface.
And in a series where magic was so OP it made other combat options useless in comparison, it had by far the most OP magic.
A maxed-out melee or ranged character would take twice as long to kill a single enemy as a low-level mage would take to kill a group of 10 enemies.

It's still a Microsoft property, probably posted a PS5 trailer to press that this one is on Playstation too.

Don't buy Microslop products

Oh yeah, 2 was fun as hell, I just thought the ending was a betrayal.
