Gotta say I’m genuinely excited for both.
I expect to see full on gameplay of both. Bring it Microsoft.

It's the safest bet.
These are possible early 2024 games with avowed being close to 2023.

This conference is the most hype since the the first E3 of PS4/Xbox One generation.

Fable, Awoved and State of Decay 3 were all revealed in 2020 I believe in the summer. I hope they shoe all 3. It's been a hot minute.

I’ve wanted new Fable ever since Fable 3. Very excited to see this new one but hope they haven’t strayed from what makes Fable great.

I really disliked Fable 3. It was so bad imo and I didn't like the entire steam punk setting. Fable 1 and 2 were far better. Based of the Fable reboot trailer it seems to be the classic Fable.

Fable started development in 2020. Sequels like God of War Ragnarok and Horizon Forbidden West have take 5 years of development, and these are games made by very structured teams, with a lot of support studios. Even if Fable don't have the same vallue of production, don't expect to see this game being lanch before 2026 at minimum.

Personally I like only Fable 1. Though Fable 2 is said to be better I have never finished it.

It's a 2024 game. Perfect dark is the one that will come out in 2024.
Fable has been in production for a while.

I was excited 3 years ago when they announced it. Hopefully this showing comes with a release date or window.Is anyone else excited about Avowed? I think it's gonna be great !

It depends on the scope of the project.
Some games take way longer due expanding ideas and enhancing certain areas experience.
If fable is going to hit 2026, that would be a 7 year project game. I don't see the possibility of it taking that long.

I am going into this with the expectation that maybe one of these games gets shown. There is no reason to set unrealistic expectations due to rumors.

This shouldn't even be news, it's been 3-4 years since they were announced and nothing has been seen, showing them tomorrow is the minimum.

Fable 1 was just magical. The OST was amazing too.

I wonder how will they execute the magic casting.
With graphics these days, I hope they make a detailed magic missiles.

Microsoft is in a prime position to win some mindshare this summer. I already want to see Starfield badly but Avowed is my most anticipated game from them and is up there with FFXVI and Baldurs Gate 3.
As far as fable I have no faith in the direction of the series it would have to be unbelievable to regain my interest.

Given that the last 2 showcases sucked I love seeing Microsoft hype their show. They seem confident.

Well when you have the market leader completely shitting on their fanbase with a poor showcase and then announcing a delay on one of the titles from their biggest developer then you don't really have much choice left and must rely on the competition to carry the industry forward.

Personally I want them to retain aging mechanics.
Still I feel like there will be some disappointment in the end due to maybe lack of any big third party announcement (which is a prerequisite to be a 10/10 show), which I don't expect to happen.

I'm pretty meh on most Xbox first party stuff, accept Fable. I love it, and i've waited since the XBO days.
Show me that, and we're good.

Most cool third party stuff that would make these shows great are leaked weeks if not months ahead, so no luck there. Imagine if Metal gear or Persona 3 remakes were first shown in their respective shows without people knowing about it beforehand, there would have been parades on the streets.

This doesn’t seem to be about setting expectations and more about visible desperation to downplay. Including making up ‘development issues’ for Fable which also now happens to be a small IP for reasons.

For a AAA RPG who is supposed to be one of the biggest Xbox's games?
Well, considering the Xbox's quality of management and all the rumours surround Fable, I don't be really surprised if it have the same quality than Redfall, and in that circunstances is possible see the game being released early.

Fable's team didn't exist at all early 2018, they had to hire like crazy for the first couple years, and, while the game isn't a new IP, they have nothing to recycle for the previous ones. Also it's supposed to be an open world RPG, which normally are the ones that take the longest to develop, so 2025 in the best of cases would be my call too.
About this report, hard to believe we'll get gameplay from at least 5 AAA's plus new announcements and 2nd party stuff too, i hope so but

Playground has never make a RPG game, and Xbox recent past doesn't give me confidence that this game will be something insane. And the only reason of people considering Fable something relevant, is because Xbox players are completly desesperate for games.This doesn’t seem to be about setting expectations and more about visible desperation to downplay. Including making up ‘development issues’ for Fable which also now happens to be a small IP for reasons.

Redfall wasnt on Xbox. Plus the studio that is making this game is playground. They are last ones from Xbox team that you can question about their quality output.
2025 would be if there is any delays. It will be early 2024 or late 2024 like starfield.
You wont show a 2025 game in this showcase.

do not tempt fate do not contrain Wonder Woman's thighs do not do not
In for Fable.....and Avowed.....and Starfield.....and Forza Motorsport.....and hopefully more Hellblade 2 gameplay.
A nice bonus would be whatever The Coalition is working on.
I dont expect Perfect Dark or Everwild but an update on these games would be sweet.

Give me Gears 6 pls
People shouldn’t be hyped for Fable as it isn’t a big IP, but is also at the same time one of Microsoft’s biggest AAA games?
