Fable Needs To Find Balance To Succeed

Bluepoint Games is the studio behind what is arguably the PlayStation 5's crown jewel at launch, the highly-rated Demon's Souls remake. Bluepoint has made a name for itself as one of the best studios when it comes to remastering and remaking games, having done so in the past with a number of other PlayStation titles. One of Bluepoint's most-celebrated works is the Shadow of the Colossus remake, breathing new life into the PS2 classic by dramatically improving the visuals. Shadow of the Colossus has been given away as a free PS Plus game in the past, but for those that missed out on the opportunity, it would be nice to see it added to the PS Plus Collection on PS5 as w

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


For gaming avatar immersion some reason, Genshin has me constantly wondering about the new Fable game that Playground Games is working on. We know barely anything about this, mind. All of the good stuff appears to be locked behind a big fat Demon Door. One thing we do know, though, is that loads of people reckoned it was going to be an MMO. This was quickly debunked by Xbox insider Klobrille back in July, which is fair enough. New Fable’s not an MMO. We get the pict


Another big 2020 game for the PlayStation brand was Sucker Punch's Ghost of Tsushima . A brand new IP, Ghost of Tsushima is a gorgeous open world samurai action game that has quickly become one of the PS4's most-celebrated exclusives. Sucker Punch has continued to support Ghost of Tsushima since launch with the addition of a co-op mode, and by bringing it to the PlayStation Plus Collection, Sony could ensure that the game's online community stays active. Ghost of Tsushima being such a new release is likely the main reason why the game isn't part of the PlayStation Plus Collection on PS5 right out of the gate, but maybe that will change in the months ah


The bounties all lead to optional bosses. In true RPG fashion, these encounters are typically tougher than the ones Team Snakemouth had to undertake in the main story. Defeating all of these bosses is necessary to complete the bestiary and get one step closer to 100% complet


I don’t reckon this option should be everywhere, either. It would be great for some areas to be exclusively single-player. Maybe we could have a designated PvP arena off in the shithole known as Aurora. The main thing here is that it’s a game designed to be experienced as a single-player narrative that takes partial credence from MMO design, where even when you’re on your own you can feel as if you’re playing something with an active and tangible community. This is nice with Genshin, but it would be particularly brilliant for something like Fable, where everything is just — forgive me for using this usually lazy but in this case especially accurate word — _ fun


The Maelstrom's direct counterpart is the legendary golden cleaver dubbed The Rising Sun. This Aztec inspired cleaver, that resembles, well... a rising sun, does increased damage to evil enemies and is acquired by donating large sums of gold within The Temple of Li


The last thing to do in Bug Fables is to unlock all the other achievements, which will grant players that sweet final 100% completion achievement . This includes a myriad of tasks, such as completing all quests, the bestiary and recipe book, along with collecting all Medals and Crystal Berr

Players can choose to either play the dungeon crawler Mite Knight or the suspiciously familiar Flower Journey. These games will reward the player with tokens that they can exchange for fabulous prizes. While none of the rewards are particularly game-breaking, completionists should be aware that there is an achievement that requires them to achieve a high score in both ga


Of course, Fable should also bring back the high level of customizability that the series is known for. In previous titles, players have been able to fully customize their heroes in a variety of ways including their clothing, hair, gender, tattoos, and even their height and weight. Fable will have to keep the same level of personalization or even increase it otherwise it just won't feel like it is part of the series at all. With Fable using the powerful ForzaTech engine , it will be interesting to see how much the customization translates or if there will be even more options for players to take choose f

Fable should also invest heavily into the game's magic system so that it has a breadth of options for players to choose from to use magic in aggressive and non-aggressive ways. Fable should also bring back the co-op that fans of the series love, but it could do a lot to improve on past iterations as well. Allowing players to make vastly different builds would allow multiplayer to be more rewarding while allowing online players to leave a bigger footprint on other players' worlds would be great for players doing an entire co-op run of the g
