(WIP) Broken Fable [220k Public, Updated 5/7/24]

The WIP has been out for a while now, if the author removed a lot of content now to make it a DLC, it would look SO bad.

Imagine that you were not aware of the game until it released, and then you find out that midway through development the author decided to cut half of the game out to sell as DLC, that sounds bad, doesnt it?

It would depends on the DLC for me in my opinion.

I feel like Pele’s weakness to water is overdone in game. For someone who has lava running through them and can create miniature suns to be nearly killed by rain…

Probably because Pele’s are operating in extremely low temperature so they do not burn things accidentally and that is the reason they can die from rain but if they operate on extremely high temperature the rain will probably become steam before it even touches them

And the reason Pele is not doing that in the flashback is…? It’s not like Pele would set the city on fire there just from ramping up their own temperature.

Here is a problem, it feels contrived and not in line with the abilities we show later in game, just to have the character on the verge of death so that they can meet Yurui.

You should consider that having the rain evaporate around you would attract attention. Since the MC doesn’t want that, I think not raising theyr own temperature to evaporate the rain valid. Not only that, but theyr heat is also the energy that keeps them alive, so depending on the situation they might not have enough heat to do It.

Every time I see this near the top of the list I get excited thinking there’s an update. The disappointment that there isn’t is killer.

Hello everyone! I am just dropping in today to let you all know what I have been up to. Let me just preface this with the news that my current contract will end soon! This is both good and bad news. The good news is that I will have significantly more time to pursue things I want to be doing, such as writing Broken fable. Progress should start to come much faster. The bad news is that I have to start looking for a new job within the next few months.

All that aside, let’s move on to what I have been doing in regard to Broken Fable. The first thing I want to touch upon is the implementation of the Lucifer path. I have decided to finish writing Chapter 3 before I continue work on that path. It has been hard for me to find the motivation to write the same chapter for the seventh time, so I need to spend some time writing something else. This means that I have been focusing on Chapter 3 for the past month. I hope to post the first half of it by the end of the month, but it may be a little later If I decide to add a fairly significant scene to the beginning of it I have been thinking about.

I am also planning to do a stat rebalance when I release the first part of Chapter 3. The plan is to increase the scale of the stats to one through ten. This allows me to implement higher variability between each fable and will make sure they each feel like they have different strengths. I believe this will also make more sense in the long run. It doesn’t seem logical for Arthur only to be a 1 or 2 on the strength scale while Pele is a 4. With this new system, if Pele is a 10, Arthur would be a 5 or 6, better representing how strong they are in comparison.

Ishtar and Zeus are still not in a place I am happy with, so I plan on changing those two paths a little as well. The Zeus changes will be mostly minor; I will just be adding an extra choice or two to their fight to make it feel more flushed out. The same with their backstory. Ishtar, on the other hand, will be getting a more considerable change. I will keep the base of her power, the flight, the same, and her backstory will only be touched on minorly. However, the flavor and the finer details of the fable will shift. Without spoiling too much, she will become more themed toward space. The goal of the rework will be to make her character feel less bloated and more cohesive. These reworks pretty low on my to-do list, but it is planned nonetheless.

That’s all from me; I hope everybody has a great week!
