The Fable brand has been all about the doggy until now, but Fable: The Journey apparently takes its own inspiration from Black & White’s gigantic creatures.<\/p>\n
“There was a bond we built up over the course of that game, and a lot of it was about rewarding and punishing your creature,” Peter Molyneux tells Gaming Union.<\/a> “People built up strong bonds with their creatures, and the one thing we learned from that is you’ve got to allow time for that bond to build up.”<\/p>\n And that time is exactly what the ‘Neux doesn’t have to show in brief gameplay demos – you’ll just have to take his word for it (uh-oh).<\/p>\n “I can’t give you five minutes of gameplay and expect you to care about the horse, but within about two or three hours of [Fable: The Journey] you will start caring,” he says.
Not very much is actually known about the Kinect-supported Fable: The Journey just yet, although Molyneux has already declared the E3 demo a “horrendous mistake”<\/a>. Not the most auspicious beginnings.<\/p>\n
