" Lionhead wanted to do a full-on Fable 4, something akin to Mass Effect or Skyrim, but Microsoft was invested in the games-as-service model, so that idea was rejected in favor of the free-to-play Fable Legends. But according to one source, it soaked up an astronomical $75 million before it was canceled; and while there was, as reported, an effort to save the project and release it under the banner of a new, indie studio, there simply wasn't enough time to pull it all together. "
Holy shit microsoft is just nothing but suits with slime in their veins.
Brandon Sullivan
Cancelled? Wouldnt they recoup some money by releasing a bad version of it?
Wyatt Martin
>something akin to Mass Effect or Skyrim AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA thank god it was killed
Colton Fisher
Good, Fable 3 was complete ass
John Hernandez
literally no one cares.
Asher Lee
fable 3 was terrible though
Blake Allen
>akin to Mass Effect or Skyrim
Not again, Molyneux
Luke Clark
Even if it was retarded, I loved Fable 2. Hated 3 though.
Carson Hernandez
fable 2 2 would have been good though
Brody Cruz
Never played the Fable series. Any good? What's wrong with 3?
Connor Jackson
>Holy shit microsoft is just nothing but suits with slime in their veins. You know why, right?
Grayson Barnes
Doesn't bother me. The only good Fable was The Lost Chapters anyway.
Ethan Cook
It's a shame, maybe it could have been good like 2. Fucking microshit, for the past two years they've been pulling the "nice guy" moves with Phil but they're still up to their dirty old tricks. Fuck 'em.
Cameron Davis
>FABLE 4 WAS CANCELLED Do people really give a fuck about FABLE at this point.
Only the first game was somewhat good.
Christopher Gomez
Fable 1 was Fantastic. 2 was ok. 3 was meh.
Eli Stewart
>Holy shit microsoft is just nothing but suits with slime in their veins. Considering how poor the Fable series is with the constant over promising and under delivering, MS did us a favour. I'm sure another open world adventure game will fill the void.
Wyatt Cox
As someone who played fable TLC to death ... who gives a fuck? It stopped being a good game series since Fable 2.
Owen Gray
There already is one, user.
Ian Williams
Console war thread backfired
Fuck off cunt
Robert Martin
I think I'm the only person on earth who loved Fable 3.
I know it's casual as fuck, but I loved the atmosphere.
Jonathan Smith
>close neogaf tab >decide to take my "controversial" bullshit to Sup Forums >no-one cares
lol
Hunter Cook
>filling the void
no, that game only made the void larger, by lifting all our expectations and crushing them with soulless hard force
Ethan Long
i love the way the faggot OP tried to create an eye-catching title in capital letters as well to get people really riled up
Chase Clark
>this is the future of all 3D Juegos
damn...
Ian Smith
1 was pretty much ahead of its time, but doesn't stand the test of time 2 was pretty mediocre 3 was very mediocre You didn't miss out, I can sum it up with >Peter Molyneux promises loads of brilliant features to get you hyped for the game >your character ages as the game progresses >being good or bad results in getting a halo or devil horns >your character's physique changes as you develop your skills >some choices can be made >you can buy homes and rent them out and get married >black screen sex scenes >British humour >Peter Molyneux lied and you realise not nearly as much cool shit is in the game >Peter Molyneux promises everything he did before AND MORE in the next instalment >repeat for 3 games
Gavin Martinez
I made this thread as an example to you all, after all a good company like Sony would never cancel a game.
Easton Wright
Something about fixed costs and marginal costs
Luis Reed
There was only ever one good Fable game, so I don't give a shit.
Dylan Wilson
Daily reminder to Fable fans. TW3 is truly Fable done good. I adore Fable 1 and 2, TW3 is basically everything they tried to do with the series but turned to eleven.
Brandon Rodriguez
I was expecting someone to point out the Witcher but I think you got the point. Nothing of value was lost.
Alexander Ortiz
>Molyneux Buy my lies
Ryder Taylor
Didn't all of the Fable games just get worse as they went along?
Angel Kelly
>after all a good company like Sony would never cancel a game. Instead they would probably just downgrade it and turn it into a series of cut scenes with "PRESS X TO NOT DIE" at a silky smooth 30fps
Angel Barnes
>Sony would never cancel a game.
oh my god
Jackson Davis
>Ape Escape PS3 cancelled due to Mario Galaxy existing
James Barnes
>suits force developers to change their product and or rush it out to mimic some other big seller in hopes of stealing money away from it >holds developers responsible when game is recieved poorly They can't keep getting away with it
