Official Thread Fable IV

Phil straight up challenged Tamoor on saying it wasn't gameplay on giantbomb interview. They aren't being evasive.

That was a mic drop moment when I watched it. I would love to have that as an animated gif.
 
Aren't being evasive? What parts of the trailer was confirmed to be user-controlled gameplay? No manipulation of the camera? Where's the HUD?
 
In the Spider-man 2 gameplay demo there is a part that transitions to a QTE where the lizard jumps up out of the water. In God of War and Horizon FW there are areas where you initiate a camera shift for a "finishing move" of some kind. What was shown for Fable could easily be part of actual gameplay with a similar style close-up or in gameplay cut.

This guy recreated the Forza Horizon 5 trailer in GTA. All gameplay.

 
I'm sticking with the giant battle being an interactive set piece which makes sense for a battle with a giant.
Stuff like the pub being a cutscene. Fable would go into cinematic mode during certain kills which is referenced in the trailer.
Her chucking the fire is more traditional gameplay.

Why the f*** would it have a hud in this trailer?

It is gameplay. Been told by numerous devs and it says it right there in the show.

Have you never seen what people do with gameplay to create videos?
So it's not depicting actual gameplay as the user would experience. Gotcha.

BTW, pray tell, what scenes were actual gameplay?

That is much more believable. The fire chucking is probably not gameplay.

Why would it have a HUD? Because if it's gameplay, you'd have a HUD.
 
I think that's the schtick they're going with, given the camera work at play in her face reveal. A goofy-ass-looking woman who is the unlikeliest of heroes.
Which is ridiculous. In Fable you can make your character badass if you want to. That will never translate to badass.
 
We still on this stuff.

The character is fine and multiple Fable devs have said that is gameplay, so has Spencer, Booty, and Greenberg.

It would be utterly ridiculous for them to make that claim if not true.

The point of trailers is to be cinematic. Of course there is not going to be a HUD. There was no HUD in the Avowed trailer but it was very clearly gameplay.

It was gameplay. Time to just accept it. Frankly it looked amazing but NOT so amazing to me that it couldn’t be gameplay. If you look closely it definitely still looks gamey. Not in a bad way. The tech and skill of the team is clearly fantastic. But I didn’t find it unbelievable at all for it to be gameplay.
 
Current one is fine but this one def looks cuter




The guy who made that...

Can we expect horse racing and carriage drifting as we travel from festivals to castles? Maybe different horse breeds and armor modes, for them.
