Playground Games shouldn't rush Fable, of course, but it also can't afford to take forever to release the reboot. There's big next-gen competitors on the way that the old school Fable will have to stand up to. Obsidian Entertainment, often acknowledged as a master of RPGs, has Avowed coming to Microsoft platforms down the line. Elden Ring is sure to be another competitor to Fable whenever it releases, drawing in fantasy fans who prefer darker tones. As much as the Fable IP deserves a comeback, the near future is also a difficult time for it to do so. One of the best ways it can undercut these competitors is by coming out ahead of them if possi   However, the Land of a Thousand Fables is only used by members of the royal family in Toussaint , which calls into question why this is the case since these illusions could probably be created in a mainstream way and be used for a type of virtual reality, similar to how people in the real world use video ga   There are a bunch of fairy tales to be found inside of the Land of a Thousand Fables, including Little Red Riding Hood and Thumbelina, among others. This is especially strange, and fans wonder why this is the case since the Land of a Thousand Fables is such a small sp   The world of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure focuses on the Joestar family for far too long. It is, after all, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, so it makes sense that this titular adventure would follow Jonathan Joestar and his descendants. However, once you’ve caught up to Part 4: Diamond Is Unbreakable , you start to see that there’s more to the world of JoJo than just one family and a cursed bloodline. Josuke Higashikata , Part 4’s protagonist, starts to take a back seat while his pals and acquaintances step into a more central role. The growth of the initially shy Koichi Hirose into the confident and assertive young lad we see at the beginning of Part 5 is emblematic of that shift. Koichi is, arguably, more of a protagonist than Josuke ever was, with more of the traditional shounen story beats associated with him as opposed to the rest of the cast. This was where it became clear that the world of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure deserved to be explored further, away from the Joestar family - and with Netflix’s Thus Spoke Kishibe Rohan , we finally get just t   Considering how important it is that Fable releases on time, it's interesting to compare its theoretical release schedule to some other games. The best possible example is The Elder Scrolls 6, which Bethesda says won't release for many years. That makes it strange and surprising that Bethesda took the time to confirm the game already. Sitting on the public knowledge of The Elder Scrolls 6 without addressing it at all seems like a surefire way to make fans impatient for n   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-   Fable is the type of RPG that begs not to be rushed. There is a staggering amount of content to dive into when first starting the game. The opening village of Oakvale simply lets you run around aimlessly, chat with people and play with the chickens, should you wish to do that instead of continuing on with your quest of saving Alb   To be sure, Elder Scrolls fans are disappointed to know that Starfield is coming before Elder Scrolls 6 , and fans have wanted a new game in the series for a long time. Despite that, Fable 's situation is still completely different from that of The Elder Scrolls. Nobody has been producing endless content for the franchise to keep fans sated in the meantime. While there's all kinds of Elder Scrolls games to play right now, there's really no new Fable content for fans to enjoy right now. That's what makes the long wait ahead of Elder Scrolls 6 more bearable while simultaneously framing how important it is that the Fable reboot comes out s   Even if it wasn't exactly a traditional Fable game, Fable Fortune remains the best recent touchstone for the franchise. After all, it started out as Lionhead's handiwork, Personalized Gaming Experience and even after the studio closed, many of its developers kept working on Fable Fortune. This card game first opened its doors to early access players in the summer of 2017, and then it released fully in February 2018. That means it's been about three years since Fable fans have seen any sign of life from the franchise, which isn't too long, even if it's been much longer since a normal Fable game came   Just last week, Square Enix held a Dragon Quest- centric live stream celebrating the series' 35th anniversary where it officially announced Dragon Quest 12: The Flames of Fate . It's been known since 2020 that Square Enix has been working on a follow-up to Dragon Quest 11 , but now it's received an official title. Because of its announcement last week, it's unlikely that Dragon Quest 12 will get any time at Square Enix's E3 showcase . The games it has confirmed to be showing include Babylon’s Fall , Life is Strange: True Colors , Life is Strange Remastered, and Marvel's Avengers . Unfortunately, Dragon Quest didn't make the list it se
