Forums - Microsoft - Microsoft Vetoed A Black Woman On Cover For Fable II

Well if you wanna put a character on the box that the average Fable player can relate with, its a black woman. I'm annoyed they didn't push for black transgender immigrant. It just wasn't progressive enough.

Fable 4 sounds like it could have been something really cool. Oh well, I think a Fable 4 will happen eventually.

Oh they didn't get it? Well maybe that's why their not videogame developers!
Bunch of pricks...



I love the PR hammer-argument : 'Which Disney sold less : Princess and the Frog. Black girl = no sales. '

Wow that's the most retarded thing ever. By the same logic, every game should have a crowned lion on its cover...



Click bait title???  

No woner that developer was closed down-  If MSFT is funding the game and they are expecting a RPG with dragons and sh-t  then the dev needs to produce what is expected- 

The click bait title on this thread is trying to make it soud like a race thing when it was purely a marketing thing-  Why do so many people try to turn so many things into race??? 

The Los Angeles Rams drafted a WHITE QB with their 1st pick of NFL the draft?????  YET, ther were black QB s avalable in the draft!!!!!  OMG

NEw headline  LA RAMS Dis all black qb s in th eNFL draft by picking a white qb!!!   What does this mean??? Are the LA RAMS a RACIST organization????

Find out after this commercial break on our new investigative report



Another butt-hurt SJW who's mad the world isn't the way he wants it to be.

It just shows how fucking dumb people are."I will buy it because there's a white guy on it,just because".MS is right,racist fucks in the world won't look twice at it,solely because of a black woman on the cover.



Duh, when was the last time you saw a game with a black woman on the cover, any woman at all is pretty rare.

From a Business standpoint Microsoft made the right decision.



Yup. Business is business, regardless of people's personal sensibilities. As a fan of a certain game series you would like to see the games sell as much as possible, would you not?



it was for Fable III, not Fable II
