Fable 2 and 3 both had online co-op. Something has put the fear into people that Fable is going GaaS for some reason.
Not sure why they assume that instead of assuming it’s like every other Fable game.

Yea its had a coop feature since 2 and when you ran around you could see other people in the world/gamertags, at least thats what I remember, its been over a decade since I played
The reboot will almost certainly have some sort of coop experience or at a minimum some sort of shared world like Horizon but worrying about it not having purely single player content or online only seems illogical

I had that happen the week when FH5 (Forza Horizon 5) came out. Then I had it happen once last week or the weekend when playing Halo Infinite. After I got that message, I quit the game and restarted the console. The message didn’t happen again until the next day at the earliest. Its been mostly gone and not happening, but I’ve been quitting the games (FH5 and HI) when done playing and not using QuickResume because of some glitches they seem to have coming back from QR.

Sure, and peoples electricity goes out sometimes. Or a cable gets dug off, or a tree falls on the house. Doesn’t sound like something that should impact game design.
Same here. But, The studio was bought in 2018, same time there last game release, so they should have been working on a new game for only 3 year. Has they probably been hiring on the same time (and make the 3 DLC, in 2019), and there previous game took 5 years to make, I think, the game will be shown on 2022 for a 2023 release.
yeah and if they would keep it at that same level it wont be a problem , im guessing you have been a gamer for a couple of years so i dont have to tell you how anoying always online games can be from the state of the internet to the dumb stuff people around you can do to make a youtube/twitch video that ruins immersion for someone like me i dont want to see stuff like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J1c3ET1vyA
Haha, yeah there needs to be options 
I expect the big games Xbox is making to be 4-6 year dev cycles, but these other games I really expect a 3 year or less cycle, been kind of disappointed in that so far.
COVID screwed up a lot of that so I wouldn’t read into it too much for the future.

Yeah I get that, just hope we see that cycle for the next set of games

I was not using instant on and quick resume for those games but it is happening almost everyday with Halo. Just tried to clear all local save data and unplug again 
I am hopeful that the Compulsion game is big enough to need more than a 3 year dev cycle.

Definitely wasn’t expecting Fable at TGA myself, most likely next E3, but hopefully there’s still a chance for Avowed. Hellblade 2 seems very likely.
IMO Fable will be fully revealed at the 2022 TGA.
Coming off the high of Horizon 5, it would be the perfect time to reveal it but I just don’t see them ready to show it.
If I don’t see Avowed at the TGA’s I will riot due to Obsidian purposely saying “SOON”.
Dont say Soon if it = next e3.

Then “SOON” will join the ranks of 
Like baffles me why even mention the game in that post after E3 and say “SOON” instead of the usual “while we arent ready to show it off yet just know its X, Y and Z”.
