I never played the older fable games (I'm not sure why, I went back and played other games from the era but never Fable) so idk if the new game is tonally correct for it's franchise but based on the trailer it looks fun at least from a writing sense. The humor has this very dry-but-zanny quality to it that I liked, reminded me of British comedy from like the 90s/2000s, weirdly enough

I was also really visually impressed by it, (some of the faces looked almost live action) even if I'm kind of tired of hyper-realistic graphics in games (weren't the Fable game originally kind of cartoony? Maybe I'm confused them for something else lol)

I'm honestly surprised this filmmaker draws the line anywhere in terms of murder lol. Tbh I'm a huge fan of full-on splatterpunk personally (in general I prefer more cerebral/psychological/existential horror than just gore and jumpscares all on their own), so I haven't seen any of the Terrifiers, it's mostly cultural osmosis for me

Oh God... I really hope he just means the new game just try a different, more up to date kind of comedy. Borderlands trying a new comedic angle might be fun, but BL4 taking itself seriously would be... Not a trend the games should jump on

To me they look weirdly generic and subdued for a borderlands games

Remember Zer0? Gaige? Athena? That cool ice lady who's name i forget? Like these games have pretty distinct design themes for each class

These guys all kinda look like... Each other. Like they sorta blender in together rather than looking really distinct

Of course that could just be for a story reason, and it doesn't necessarily mean the game is gonna be bad, but I hope there not taking the series in a more "realistic" or "serious" direction because that's just not what these games are, they're very eccentric and colorful, always figuratively and often literally

I think as cool as this would be, TES6 has already been delayed a lot, and this level of realism in world building, while immersive, takes a lot of time, in terms of game development

It would be really cool, but at this point I don't think they have the time for this crazy attention to detail

Either way, the base game needs to be better than Starfield 😬
