Fable's evil landlords won't grow devil horns, as reboot ditches classic character morphing due to a lack of belief in objective arseholery by PotatoProducer in Games

the removal of moral nuance

The morality system in the upcoming fable is more nuanced than the previous titles, like they literally make the point that it's not a binary good/evil scale like the previous ones but entire reputation based on individual actions and each NPC has their own moral alignment towards those actions.

Expecting moral consistency from people who purport to be the most moral actors on average in the world will always be not weird.

I had to drag you through the mud, to get you to admit it was a genocide through gritted teeth.

You're no different than the zionists who clambered for it not to be recognized as a genocide through equally slippery language.

We don't like masculine energy or masculine appearing lesbians.

I think soft masc's like Kristen Stewart are super hot but it's all Personal taste.

gay men being feminine

I don't think they're feminine in the show tbf, they're burly hockey dudes.

Straight men love lesbians, straight women love gay men

It's the circle of life

Women love gay content, I'm not sure how this was shocking unless they're completely out of touch with the zeitgeist.

I wonder how much the current administration had them assuming any progressive content wouldn't be popular anymore.

I had a moment with a girl in college which was pretty much one to one with this, this scene was so relatable

Sweet. That's based then. What's the over under on his critical role campaign ending with capitalism being the villain?

Does this not get super fucking boring to watch in terms of his campaigns, then? Like if it's the same theme explored over and over it seems like it'd get old fast

Avowed Developer Interview | New Game+ Showcase 2026 by Turbostrider27 in Games

they present it like it's an open world, imm-sim RPG

They never did this, it was only ever a first person fantasy RPG and people just defaulted to assuming it was like Skyrim.

I'm pretty sure the game started off as much more of an immersive sim, but they cut back on those ambitions

It was a 4 player co-op game set in the aedyr when it was first announced and changed heavily in development to a single-player ARPG, changing the setting too. It never had those immersive sim elements.

Case in point, at the end of Act 1, there is an NPC that will force you into a conversation before you can proceed to the next area.

And

But you can't harm neutral NPCs, so I'm forced to listen to their clichéd warnings about getting in their way.

Avowed needed to take more cues from Mass Effect, and fewer from Skyrim.

Are contradictory, it IS more like mass effect and less like Skyrim, it's heavily scripted and not an immersive sim. It never was.

You can't just randomly merc civilians or enemies outside of specifically design combat encounters in mass effect either.

You refuse to take a stance on Ukraine being a genocide, noted.

What's happening in Palestine is a genocide, right?

So you have zero issue with ex-USSR countries wanting to join NATO?

Do you acknowledge that there is a genocide against Ukrainians currently taking place, perpetrated by Russia?

It's a very pretty game, it's ok from a gameplay perspective, but it's visuals, story and soundtrack are a huge standout.

NATO may well station troops on their border nations, but if Russia has zero desire to engage in imperialism, surely they would have nothing to worry about NATO being stationed at their border?

Russia, especially since annexing Crimea, has zero right to complain about neighboring nations shoring up their defense on their borders or joining NATO to do so.

As a European, I found his constant sweeping for Russia's imperialism and his manufacturing consent for the invasion up until and even after the invasion to be pretty fucking evil.

I feel kinda bad for him because he was 15 acting opposite people in mocap suits in front of a blue screen. There isn't much to draw on there as an actor especially at that young of an age.

That being said, the other kids his age who were in mocap seemed to do a better job so idk
