I've not heard anything good about Legends so I can't say I'm too disappointed - Lionhead seems to have generally gone on a downward spiral anyway. It's not surprising.

Damn. Feel bad for those developers.

Looking at it from a consumer standpoint, Microsoft was pushing the shit out of Fable: Legends the past few years, and it looked generic as all hell to me.

Were they? I've literally heard nothing about it since E3 2013 (Or 2014?)

To be honest, I already thought it had been shut down. I didn't know development was ongoing.

I couldn't help but feel a bit of my childhood die as I read it. If only they made a real Fable game again they might have survived.

It's been at E3 every year since they announced it, and any time that Microsoft talked about Windows 10's gaming capabilities, they brought the game up as their example.

Did they? I guess I'm just ignorant, then.

Granted, most of E3 '15 and 14 for me was Halo 5 and MCC hype.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.

Microsoft is brutal like that. Did the same to Ensemble even though they just made the best selling console RTS of all time.

And just to be clear. Even though it is most likely dead at this point Lionhead is just in talks for complete shutdown, it is not a done deal yet.

What, that no one wants a shitty kinect game or whatever the fuck legends was and to not deviate from what made fable great?

Well hopefully they got that picture now

His eyebrows sparkling, his white beard hangs down to his chest. The thatched mats, spread outside his chise, spread softly, his splendid attos. He polishes, cross-legged, his makiri, with his eyes completely absorbed.

He is Ainu.

The god of Ainu Mosir, Ae-Oine Kamuy, descendant of Okiku-Rumi, He perishes, a living corpse. The summers day, the white sunlight, unabrushed, ends simply through his breath alone.

Right? I would have considered Fable 4. But this Legends thing always looked like hot garbage.

Ensemble wasn't shut down. It was split into two different companies. The people who wanted to continue with RTS games stayed at one and the people who wanted to work on other genres went to the other.

Does making the best console RTS have much weight behind it? I can see with the PC since they are far more popular but when it comes to consoles hardly anybody makes them. To me making the best RTS game for a console doesn't seem to be that big of an achievement when there's hardly any RTS games for consoles. Also if Halo Wars was a PC game would it do well compared to what's out there for that system?

emigrate or degenerate. the choice is yours
Limited sympathy for them tbh. Fable III was an absolute abomination of a game and Legends looked like it was going to replicate the same casual formula.

They were shut down even before HW launched, so its sales figures mean jack all to their closure.
