10 Things We Wish We Knew Before Playing Fable

Stand users - those who can harness the abilities of mysterious personified psychic entities - are attracted to one another, and are certainly not limited to those friendly with the Joestar family. So, it’s about time that we are finally seeing more from this odd world of hostile psychic beings that isn’t related to a tiny cast of characters and their extended relations. Kishibe Rohan’s absurd antics make for a good way to tell those stories - and that brings me to the first episode of Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan, which is everything I wanted from a JoJo spin-


If players have been actively winning battles, they can complete this quest almost instantaneously. Upon completion, Takkun gives Team Snakemouth the Seedling Affinity Medal, which increases the likelihood of encountering a Golden Seedling to be 2.5 times more likely. This makes farming for Tangy Berries a much easier t


In the second game, the Door asks the player to dress up silly and bring him cheese, of all things, before he would agree to open up. Here in Fable III, the Door admits that he had no idea what to ask and made that request up on the spot, hoping the Hero would just give


So he pitches Santa on the idea of forming their own super team. Many elves have powers that are similar to the superpowers of Earth's Greatest Super Heroes, so why not enter the good fight with a team of their own? Unfortunately, Santa shoots down the idea, but that doesn’t stop Arvo. It just means that he has to prove his concept by running away to join the Justice League, and show everyone that his plan is a good one and he’s not a crazy-elf. His idea is sound. That’s the set-up and the story takes off from th


During Fable II, the player can find a house in Bowerstone Old Town called "The Invisible Hand." They learn that it's the base of operations for a group of thieves. However, economically-minded fans might have caught on to the fact that the "invisible hand" is a term used to describe how an economy self-regulates its


If you played Fable III for the first time at a young, impressionable age and were horrified by the opening cutscene, in which an ambitious chicken leaves home to explore the city but it's implied he's killed by the ending, then there is good n


While this won't be too noticeable for more casual fans, any flash given to diehard fans will get eaten up almost immediately. While not one of the worst cases of marketing spoilers, the trailer could have achieved just as much without giving away so m


Two Lionhead Studio team members who worked on the games are buried at a graveyard in the first Fable. Simone and Dene Carter appear together in multiple Easter eggs throughout the series, but this was their fi

A first-time player simply might walk past these doors, since they can often be hidden in plain sight. If and when you do happen upon one of these doors, it's in your best interest to speak with them, learn from them, and ultimately solve their riddle. The payoff can be great, with the majority of these Demon Doors leading to some of the Adventure game DLC's best hidden items to coll


Some trailers or marketing campaigns take this a step too far by giving fans too much information. Whether by virtue of the content itself or fans making inferences, it can ruin the surprise. And that's the ultimate let down: building up all that suspense only to shut it down right before the release. It's happened in every generation and PS4 is no exception, taking some of its biggest titles and throwing the high point in our fa


Fable has an added layer of depth to it that many other similar RPGs didn't at the time: its morality system. In reality, the morality system at play here really only comes down to your character becoming good or evil, with some gray area in between. While it might not be as nuanced as the system employed in the Mass Effect series, Fable wants you to think about how your actions affect the world of Albion and its inhabita


In the world of Fable, crime unfortunately exists. Those who are so inclined can certainly cause a ruckus and an uproar. Should you go down this devious path, the guards will stop you and demand you pay a hefty fine. Failing to part with the cash will see the player set u


But, leaving all of that aside, Gotham City has always been a truly weird place. Batman might be surprised at some of the bizarre things that happen in Gotham, but he is never overwhelmed by it. His ability to adjust to new and changing conditions is unmatched. He adapts and overcomes. That’s his thing. This is one of the main reasons we decided to confine the entire story to Gotham, because anything can happen there, and Batman will c


BW: Cursemas isn’t connected to Fables , it’s a standalone tale about Arvo, one of Santa’s elves who doesn’t quite fit in up at the North Pole. He’s a pooka, which is a variety of shapeshifting elf, and works in the Black Gang, which is the crew who spends the year filling the (almost infinite) coal hopper on Santa’s sleigh. They load it with lumps of coal, destined for all the bad boys and girls. It’s hard, back-breaking work. But Arvo has an idea: If there were more superheroes in the world, providing good examples for growing boys and girls, there would be fewer bad ones who only get a lump of coal for Christ
