Fans needed something big to keep the hype train rolling after such a long wait. Though the marketing didn’t give away too much late Adventure game collectibles information, it did give up the games big ticket character: Johnny Silverhand. The marketing also revealed his motivations for the entire g
However, this reveal was pretty shocking for the few that could follow along. The marketing included one of the most impactful character deaths in the game combined with an end of the world drop. Come on guys – leave a little plot for the playthro
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
Bug Fables is a great third-party game that has flown under the radars of many gamers. Yet Nintendo fans, particularly those of the Paper Mario series, should enjoy it. From its opening hours, players will notice similarities between Bug Fables and Paper Mario , including its storybook aesthetic, whimsical soundtrack, and sense of humor. This carries on to its gameplay, as Bug Fables features turn-based combat , overworld puzzles and platforming, and of course a multitude of sideque
This is one of the most important quests from a story perspective, as it reveals much about Leif and his backstory . Upon defeating the boss of Chapter 4, Team Snakemouth will find a Peculiar Gem. It can be used in Snakemouth Den to unlock a previously inaccessible dungeon, complete with unique enemies and an optional b
**SR: The world of Fables (and one of its most beloved inhabitants) will be starting its return with some serious firepower: Batman vs. Bigby! A Wolf in Gotham . Is it fair to call ‘Bigby meets Batman’ one of the most perfect crossovers DC and Fables could produce
Sony’s decision to once again pass on the expo no doubt played a big part in this, with many PS5 exclusives likely being saved for the company’s next State of Play event. The ongoing global pandemic won’t have helped much either, with the development of many upcoming games having been hindered by COVID-19 . With any luck, though, updates on some of E3’s big name absentees will not be too far a
This will reward Team Snakemouth with the Queen’s Dinner, one of the best recovery items in the game. It restores both 15 HP and TP and removes any status effects for the entire party. It’s also essential for the following qu
A character that is more prone for betrayal as well could give an incentive for the player to kill them, even with every system that currently marks that as the absolute last option that should be taken. So now the player chooses, kill a traitor for the greater good, because they’re too much of a risk to be left alone, or try to reach out to them again with the possibility that they could cause more damage. This is exactly the kind of tough choice that Kojima Productions is known for forcing into its narratives, but could have an even stronger effect by making the decision completely up to the pla
**SR: The idea of these two telling a Detective story is easy enough to grasp, but where is the line drawn between Bigby putting one foot into Gotham City, versus Bruce Wayne taking a step into the realm of Fables
Around the middle of the game, it becomes increasingly apparent that Kabbu’s Pebble Toss isn’t going to cut it anymore. Thus, it’s better to just use Vi and Leif to defeat flying enemies. This is especially true as players will likely have acquired better skills for these two, leaving Kabbu to trail behind when it comes to flying enem
The trailer did not show any gameplay, but it did give fans some information on the new Fable . The trailer does have a comedic tone, which aligns well with the series’ historically light-hearted character. The trailer also features a fairy and a medieval sword before panning up to reveal a fantasy castle in the distance. While it may seem obvious, the cinematic trailer seems to imply that Fable will return to the series’ earlier setting that was more similar to a traditional fantasy world. Fable 2 introduced early firearms while Fable 3 took the world of Albion to the industrial revolution, but Fable ‘s cinematic trailer looked as though it will return to the days of bows and swords. However, it is unclear if Fable will be a direct sequel to Fable 3 or if it will be a reboot for the franch
**SR: If fans have found Fables in trade paperbacks, or even the acclaimed video game, that “Issue #151” on the cover is going to seem daunting. Do you take new readers into account even more in this situation? Do the preceding books help you to draw in new audiences
BW: It did play an important role. To my understanding, Black Label doesn’t only exist to tell more adult/mature stories. It also exists to provide a home for out-of-continuity DCU stories. That’s the part that convinced me this is the way to go. The Batman that exists in this story does not neatly fit into the established DCU continuity and the existing timeline. It transcends it, holding onto everything I count as essential to the Batman mythos, and leaving aside the extraneous bits that crop up over decades of stor
