I'm not sure I share everyones' optimism. The track record (especially with Microsoft) of new teams with absolutely no connection to the actual team that developed the original games does not exactly inspire optimism. Microsoft basically put a team together to create fantasy game, and they're calling it Fable because of brand recognition. Part of the appeal of the series was because of Lionhead Studios' unique perspective and game design philosophy. 

No Peter Molyneux or any of the people from Bullfrog and the breakaway team (Lionhead Studios) which is who made Fable. It would be like Sony buying the Final Fantasy franchise and putting their own internal team together to make the next entry.

I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Lets be honest, do we really want ex Lionhead staff to make another Fable?

Fable 3

Fable Journey 

Fable Legends 

This franchise needs a new injection of blood, much like what the old Rare games need. Just look at how Killer Instinct 2013 turned out. Hire those who are more passionate about making the game rather than continue using the same staff that are over it.



Around the Network

If its like 1 and 2, I'm in. If its like 3, I'll play for a few hours of it and move on

I have a good feeling about this one though.. without Molyneux at the helm. The series kinda needed reboot/revival. I'd love if they pulled off a God of War sequel/re-imagining, would be amazing if we got something like that from Fable.



Fable 4 is the game that will make me get an XSX. Will probably wait till we have a solid release date though, or buy them together.
