Iirc just the main theme. Russel Shaw was the main composer.

Thatâs the point, the new narrative can be âwell fable wasnât thereâ to have something to be negative about.

Exactly. Us Xbox fans should know BETTER by now⌠To be falling for certain traps and setting ourselves up. I understand being hyped but the showcase is around the corner lets wait and see firstâŚ
Holy hell, if you think thereâs no chance a game in dev for 6 years that just got directly teased isnât going to be there, and youâre legitimately scared to think it might, thatâs a serious personal issue and you should stop following games so closely.

For those of you who are new to this site, you might be wondering why there are so many posters pushing back against hyping up the Xbox show while advocating for you to temper your expectations. This is because a few years ago Xbox fans hyped up the Xbox showcase to mythical proportions, and when the show didnât deliver (on what was never promised), those same fans began to âdoom and gloomâ anything and everything related to Xbox. It was, to say the least, insufferable for a bit.
So, to make sure that never happens again, many here have decided to make sure that hype levels remain within reason and people are made well aware that the show might not be the âBlow the f***ing doors offâ showcase many are expecting. Whether you like this or not doesnât matter because itâs going to happen.
Personally I think itâs ok to get as hyped as you want to be and speculate as much as you want as long as youâre aware that the show might indeed suck similarly to Sonyâs latest showcase. Have fun and try not to take any of this too seriously, please.

When you see someone getting too hyped for the showcase

We shouldnât hype ourselves up with videos like that, read too much into it.
But to be honest, thinking it can appear isnât that crazy. I can definitely understand that people are expecting it. Fable has been a thing since at least 2018 now.
But itâs definitely best to just wait and see.

Wasnât the Playground RPG team basically a skeleton crew ?
Iirc it was reported at the beginning the Playground RPG was multiplatform and not Fable. If itâs true the game was probably very early in development, maybe even just an idea or plan.
My biggest issue is people donât know how to handle disappointment and go off on extremes which is set off by thinking the showcase will be the one and then itâs not. I also find it annoying when people go on and say donât tell me not to get hyped, Iâm sorry but weâve been here a million times to understand where it all ends up.
This is video games as well so to me it does make me sorta laugh when people go off because they werenât shown marketing material for a video game at a gaming event.
I have done my predictions and included Fable, do I think itâs a 1000% lock no chance not being there, no but I have a good feeling and guess what if itâs not there Iâm good with Starfield, Forza and Diablo. Fable isnât going to be out this year so it really doesnât bother me, still thinking itâs 2024/2025 so we will most likely see it next year anyway if we donât this year and no itâs not a wait till next year thing

If Fable doesnât show up after that video, Xbox will get a lot of flak and theyâll deserve it. The music sounding virtually identical to the Bowerstone theme in Fable 1, plus following a âglitter bread crumbâ trail to the objective, which in this case is the showcase, is a very heavy handed hint.
Iâm not saying it definitely will feature, but to put a hint out like that with what they have in the pipeline is stupid and was bound to make people draw certain conclusions. If they didnât know that, then the Xbox social media teams need some training. But then itâs got people hyped so I guess itâs done its job.

Eh, if you make a tweet like that then I am expecting Fable. I know I might be setting myself up for disappointment, but that is how I feel

Iâll stand by what I said
Go in expecting Fable now if you wish but iâll have no sympathy for anyone that does based on the video if it doesnât show

Thatâs why I try to expect nothing and go in with an open mind. Because if I do I can only expect to be disappointed.
I agree, that was a very specific video. It might not be Fable, but literally EVERYONE thinks itâs hinting at it, so though itâs not confirmation of anything, I think people are welcome to draw certain conclusions. It wasnât even a subtle hint.
Itâs also their biggest IP once Starfield is out, so it would make sense to finally show it, itâs been almost 3 years since the reveal trailer.

Iâm not expecting it, but I do think thereâs a strong chance. I promise not to be devastated if I donât see it, because I know itâs coming eventually and I have a lot of faith in that creative director.
Yeah, thatâs exactly how I feel. Itâs been 3 years and that tweet is giving strong Fable vibes. Hopefully, itâs shown at the showcase because it can be a huge moment for Microsoft if they have gameplay ready to show
Media already laying the grounds to shit on Xbox.
