Where my pretty girl at?
 
Isabel looks really good, the animations and world design too, don't know why some of you are still complaining. This trailer left a much better taste than previous ones.
Oh, you mean the other characters...yeah, those are a bit weird.
 
If you can somehow ignore the DEI characters, the actual game looked insane. Graphics, production values, the gameplay snippets they showed, the scope, it's bonkers. I get it if the character designs are too much tho.
 
Playground, is one of the most talented studios in the industry. I hope Microsoft's management, doesn't ever fuck with their structure. Day one on Fable.
 
I would have prefered 20 min of uninterrupted gameplay but i guess the polish is still not there yet.

Good trailer.
This! I can't do anything with this trailer. Hell, the few bits of footage earlier this year is way better than this. Honestly I can see this getting delayed again.
 
Man, this looks like one of the most heavily Americanized, sanitized, safe and politically correct takes on a very British-style story/game. It feels like a "we include everyone in every possible way" approach dropped into a medieval setting to the point where it starts to feel a bit out of place.

Visually it does look impressive but beyond that I'm not sure yet.
It just gives off that very Microsoft-polished, focus-tested vibe, and I'm not fully convinced it'll translate into something genuinely good.
 
Is she the villain? I feel more aligned with her.

This looks like a game that I want to avoid, but if I can be evil....
 
Looks pretty good, interesting satirical darker story with that Fable vibe ( feels like The Boys?). I'm in, looking forward to this.
 
Looks awesome. Go fap to an underage looking Android, guys. I don't play Fable for beautiful women. When has it ever had that? Its like a comedy or parody of medieval times. So bring on the laugh reacts. That's what the series craves.

Doesn't look too bad, way better than the original girl whom they seemingly got rid of.
Thats like saying- "u look good for ur age" aka there are tens of milions of younger ppl who look way better so u dont even qualify to be in same league as them 🤣
And believe me, i heard plenty of "complements"(even from women who actually let me slide inbetween their soulgaps :P ) saying stuff like:
"some women like their men ugly"
In the end if i hit its still my win after all xD
 
I'm intrigued as long as there's not too much Joss Whedon style writing or light enough on millennial humor. I still haven't seen enough gameplay to know if that aspect will be good or bad, but that's what I care about most.
 
Looks very good, a nice variety of different environments in the trailer.

Is Atwell the antagonist of the game?

Because your over the top praise is hilarious. You did the same thing with Avowed.

And he wasn't wrong there either. :messenger_smiling_with_eyes:
 
This is PlayGround games were talking about, I don't think the visuals will have any concerns considering what they achieve with the Horizon games.

But visuals don't make a game, seen that many times. Hopefully they can pull that off as well.
 
I think it sounds kind of interesting. I'm not saying I'm super excited for it, but I am intrigued.

Playground have comfortably been Microsoft's best studio for a while and it's good to see they have moved to a different project in Fable instead of being another singular IP studio. Hope it's good.

It is pretty clear that they did not plan for character creator or male protagonist. Male walk is still extremely awkward. It was clearly targeting only female audience.
