Fable Legends Preview | Worthplaying

WP:
Fable Legends is a bit different than previous titles in the franchise. Yes, it keeps the Fable "look," but the focus is on action, it's a free-to-play game, and it boasts 4-v-1 asymmetric multiplayer. It's also cross-platform, supporting both Windows 10 PC players and Xbox One players in the same game and on the same servers.

Microsoft had a playable version of Fable Legends on display at GDC 2015, so I gave the multiplayer experience a try. The setup at the show featured two Xbox One consoles and three Windows 10 machines. The two consoles and two of the PCs were used for the four heroes. The remaining PC was used for the villain. The PCs were set up with both keyboard and mouse as well as Xbox One controllers, so players could use whatever they were comfortable using.

YES. Mix of Moba style,Stratergy with rpg leveling and loot drops really works well.

Only problem i see is if there are enough content meaning Fable will be done as season like season 1,2 and so on will there be enough content in each season? This were the Rpg and loot drops come into play if there are deep charcter leveling and addictive loot drops that makes you want more Fable will be a huge success

Been in the beta for awhile game is fun but again is there enough content there to keep me and lionhead is working hard to make sure there will be more than enough when it officially releases

When is the next time the beta goes live

RJ920094002d ago

Are the working on a main fable game or is this it for now?

StrayaKNT4002d ago (Edited 4002d ago )

Sounds like this game will be a blast I just hope it comes before halo 5 and Tomb raider. It also doesn't have much hype so it could be a sleeper hit.

ScorpiusX4002d ago

What will help it be a hit even with those other titles out will be it's window 10 extras. The whole cross play , the streaming to other W10 devices. This what i believe

kraenk124002d ago (Edited 4002d ago )

I don't know. Sounds like a more tactical Evolve to me and the microtransactions will kill it. I also really don't like the art style but well, we will see.

spicelicka4002d ago

Well it is a free 2 play game to be fair, unlike evolve, and that's how how F2P games usually are.

mhunterjr4002d ago (Edited 4002d ago )

Seems to me that the micrtransaction model will make it worthwhile. The cost of entry for Evolve is what killed it. If they can avoid 'pay to win' then it could have the potential to be a true success. Free rotational players, who's progress you keep even if you don't pay... Who van complain?

'A more tactical evolve' sounds like a valid description. And that is pretty enticing...

The orginal prey 2 better be on this list.

And it is. Man if could've got this instead. Wonder why no one's step up to do this kinda game yet. I think there's one in development for pc, it's cyberpunk Era but it takes place in some huge apartment complex I think. Anyway I'm saying this not knocking the prey that came out cause I did enjoy that to but really wanted prey 2 (canceled)

Skuletor766d ago

I wonder if they never happened because they were cancelled 🤔 (stupid headline)

Rockstar766d ago

Was just thinking the same thing...

Deep Down is never going to see the light of day

porkChop2860d ago

Shame, it looked pretty cool.

IamTylerDurden12860d ago (Edited 2860d ago )

My top 10

Star Wars 1313 - This was my if Star Wars and Mass Effect had a baby, sorta..

Silent Hills - P.T. nuff said.

Deep Down - Visuals were stunning. Capcom, please.

Agent - it has become the R* version of TLG.

Bioshock VITA - It was legitimately planned and in the works, until it wasn't..

Visceral Star Wars - Visceral, Hennig, 3rd person Star Wars action.

Scalebound - Looked awesome early on, other than the Beats By Dre..

Prey 2

Infamous VITA (rumor)

IamTylerDurden12860d ago (Edited 2860d ago )

Infamous VITA was a rumor. It was to be called Infamous: Electric Souls and Nate Fox pretty much promised me. Darn you Nate.

The Santa Monica space RPG was a shame. Too bad SSM has such high standards, i bet it wasn't that bad.

gamerpop2860d ago

Star Wars 1313 and the recently canceled EA game were big upsets.

Raven7222860d ago

Fable Legends? Really? Every other game on that list I can agree with but that. That game never had hype. It had artificial hype from people who wanted it to be more than what it was looking to become. It was hardly ever spoken of outside of list wars and some poor schmuck who was forced to write about the game because it made an appearance at some convention. It wasn't what people wanted. They wanted a proper Fable game. They got a garbage asymmetrical multiplayer game in the vein of Evolve but even less exciting.

The 10th Rider2860d ago

Eh, I think the original concept was decent enough, even if it was nothing spectacular. However it felt like the more and more they showed the worse it looked.
