Fable surely won't be out for at least 3 years. Studio doesn't even have a lead script writer.

Alongside with other major positions :

Of the vital jobs that are currently open, Playground is still looking to add a Lead Audio Engineer, Lead AI Engineer, Lead Game Designer, Animation Director, and a Lead Scriptwriter to the team.

So this can't be for another game?

Microsoft is such a mess. 12tflops to play Youtube videos is all you can do on that thing 🤣

@hardwenzen:

That and better running and looking third party games

HaH

@mowgly1: Did you know one of the writers from Rocksteady who helped write Batman Arkam Knight was hired a while ago, did you also know that they are recruiting for three ip's?

Geez you cows need to get MS/Xbox outta your heads.

No it can't be because that's not a negative against MS silly. Meanwhile check my link as you're right on the money.

Question, I never get the appeal of Fable, what is actually good about this series? Played the first game right up until the revelation about the hero sister and got bored. Idk seems like its a pretty mediocre series.

X-Series needs a good Halo and Fable or the xbox brand is dead

These can't be 6/10 gamepass trash or gamers will riot and start calling out gamepass for being bad value.

Did you know that work on new Fable has been rumored for more than a 2 years. Excuses, excuses, Xbox fan. Excuses!!!!

So, after 2 years they still doesn't have lead script writer alongside with other lead position. Yeah, Fable is 2023 game at least

Geez you should worry about what's going on in your own backyard, you don't see lems making threads that Naughty Dog's/Sucker punches etc next games are 3-5yrs away do you? no, and the reason is we don't care about what happens in Playstation land, and yet you cows are obsessed with Xbox lol.

Go replay one of your one & done games.

Lead game designer

Jobs are constantly being posted on devs websites. It could be for a different game. It could be for Fable. It could be the current lead game designer left or is about to leave etc. Means nothing.

However, Fable has only shown a short CGI snippet which indicates it is at the very least two years away.

It's good to know cows are always so concerned with all things Xbox. lol :P

Cancel culture cows are relentless.

Cancel culture Phil was a thing this gen. RIP Scalebound, Fable Legends and Phantom Dust. 🤣

Imagine having to wait 3-4 years for a GaaS game. Damn!

@BenjaminBanklin: You mean SOCOM?

3 f ing years! Why even show a cgi trailer for it . Man was I so hyped for this game, but 3 f ing years!!

I forgot Fable was well known for its engaging story. 🤣

It's shocking how unprepared Microsoft is for next gen. They have literally nothing for the foreseeable future.

omg that is so important to have a game 4k/60 against a 4k/60 game that might run slightly better.

but what happens if certain game has ton of slow downs because of the power consumption spikes could impact clocks and lower performance. the ps5 will handle that game better.

amd shift baby. lol not that its going to make the ps5 more powerful. but if that game get a huge slow down at a certain part in the game the series x version will slow down were the the ps5 version will not.

It's a fascinating idea - and entirely at odds with Microsoft's design decisions for Xbox Series X - and what this likely means is that developers will need to be mindful of potential power consumption spikes that could impact clocks and lower performance. However, for Sony this means that PlayStation 5 can hit GPU frequencies way, way higher than we expected. Those clocks are also significantly higher than anything seen from existing AMD parts in the PC space. It also means that, by extension, more can be extracted performance-wise from the 36 available RDNA 2 compute units.

Well, its kinda is known for its story. The story of Peter Molyneux lies 🤣🤣🤣

@Juub1990: The tweet says they are looking for people to work on Fable, IT"S NOT FOR A DIFFERENT GAME.

Good lord learn to read people.

And MS is vastly unprepared for the new generation. They are about to blow another generation

Are you saying there wouldn't be false claims and false expectations for the next Fable? Well that is a bummer. Most gamers like being disappointed. 😎

It was trying to be the Roald Dahl of RPG's.

I think Divinity, although not as prominently trying to fit that mold, is actually way better at emulating it.

I don't like how all MS games looked so far away. It's also why I have a hard time believing Horizon 2 will launch in 2021. I feel like if a game is a year away, you show gameplay.

This doesn't mean they can't work on the game in the meantime. Considering that their last few games didn't really require a story, it's understandable that they're still looking to hire decent writers.

Huh?

@Star67: Changes nothing to the rest of my post. GG are also looking for their next Horizon game.

I don't doubt that it's years off, but they could also be replacing a lead writer. The trailer also lacked things like the Xbone badge, and it has been said that the first couple years are cross-gen. It's almost like this game isn't within the release window.

Man, this generation is repeating itself, Sony will dominate just by letting Microsoft shoot themselves in the foot.
