>Lionhead wanted to make Fable 4 but Microsoft made them do Legends instead
>Microsoft wouldn't sell Lionhead because they were unwilling to let anyone else have the Fable franchise
>Shutters Lionhead when a game they didn't want to make that they told MS would fail ends up being an unfun resource hog
I honestly don't think I can forgive them for this.

Fable sucks though
>>337820149
Fable is shit, who cares.
Fable 3 was legitimately one of the worst games I have ever played.
Big corps are shit, news here
Only Fable 1 was any good.
They should have just made B&W3.

Fable was just over hyped and rushed, problems that were Molyneux's fault.
>>337820645
>They should have just made B&W3.
Almost everyone responsible for B&W1 and 2 left Lionhead during 2006-08 though
>>337821917
I still want B&W3 too
>>337821202
it was actually microsoft. try reading the article.

>i haven't played very many games
just fascinating.

WHat article

It was lacking on some actual RPG elements. They were clearly trying to make Fable their Zelda by that point. Tough shit Lionhead can't into Zelda, so instead we got two turds, Fable 3 and that Kinect game.
/v/ only cares about Fable now just to shit on Microsoft and cry about "The Man".
Only good Fable was Fable 1. The rest were shit. Who cares.
>Get given a job
>Say you don't want to do that job
>Lose your job
Wow who saw that coming?!
Microsoft sure is evil.
>i-it wasn't our fault at all, we swear!
Fable 3 was horseshit anyway.
Who'd wanna see a sequel to it?
>>337822836
Perhaps of Molyneux had actually worked on it, it wouldn't have been as shit
>>337822231
B&W was great the sequal was shit. I was thinking godus would be a good replacementioned but dam was I wrong.
Black and White was their good series.
Fable was just another mediocre RPG.

Dude, Molyneux was lead designer for the game and literally made it for his 9 year old son and his friends.
He even uploaded a video of his son talking about how great the game is.
Black and White 3 never ever.
>>337823056
Godus was made by a group of people of which the majority have never been involved with vidya. Why would it possibly not suck?
>>337823215
Nice hyperbole.
>>337823291
But at least you've got that Godus game, eh Anon?
>>337823226
And yet he left Lionhead because his involvement was that of a glorified office piece
>>337820149
Fable is shit and their proposal for an "edgy" Fable 4 is just embarrassing.
Fable 1 and 2 were legit good games
3 was shit tho so I don't feel bad for them
Molyneux is a hack and hasn't made anything good for nearly a decade
>>337823412
It was obviously a farce to let Microsoft take all the blame for his failures.
Just look at Godus.
His first game out of Microsofts grasp and it's a fucking cashgrab.
>>337823627
What am I supposed to look at?
The fact that he wasn't even able to assemble a group of people that actually knows how to code?
>>337823435
>Fable 1 and 2 were legit good games
>Bad combat, neutered ambition, no story, requisite Peter Molyneux penalty, le british funnies XD
>>337823585
Honestly I dident look into it that hard. I was grasping for anything that looked like B&W.
If Black and White 3 ever did come out, it'd be fucking ruined by furries the same way Kaiju Combat did. No two ways about it
They probably killed the producer of Fable 1 & 2 in a faggy drug fued, which is why fable 3 and legends is shit. They will probably realize the genius of the first two fables and go back on track for an amazing sequel in the coming years. I'm a Pure Dark btw. Corrupt good watch out. ROFL!
Pure Good!
Dirty Dark Demon!
Light or Dark, Purity or Corruption,
You decide!
What about you guys?
Katana and pistol me.
>>337823585
Do you remember that promotion they did where the winner was going to be like a god in Godus and make loads of dosh? what happened to that.
I only fell into Peter's self-hype once. Never again. They deserved to go under much earlier than they did.
>http://www.ign.com/articles/2001/10/18/project-ego
What they should do is make it so you can only be wizard OR warrior not both. Needs classes. And pure should be elf and corrupt should be like a shriek looking guy on dark and a ratty fellow on light.
Because you can't cast spells in armor
What did people see in Fable games? I just played the first, which many people claim is the best, the combat and overworld aren't really well done, NPC interaction is just spamming emotes. The moral system is retarded with either help villagers or rape their kids and kill them and rape their kids corpses in front of them, and later you can change your alignment by throwing money at some shitty shrine anyway.
