Why can't Japanese games create a villain as good as Jack of Blades?
>>
>>728904467
the DLC sucked eggs and ruined jack
>>
TLC voice > OG voice
>>
>>728904467
Isn't he just a douchebag from another plane of existence that possesses whoever wears his mask?

Factually wrong.

the original voice should have been kept for all his appearances in the original game; the deepened DLC autotune should have slowly but surely filtered in over the course of the The Lost Chapters as his demonic, inhuman nature becomes more apparent over your pursuit until it's gotten to full deep baritone growler after his reincarnation

this is the correct opinion

I thought from the thumbnail this was Gretel almost got aroused by Jack of Blades, I might need to take a break from this site

this, turning into a dragon was a really dumb idea
>>
>>728904467
lol
>>
>>728909617
I actually really liked the dragon transformation at the time as, besides being a dumb young autist, there was real WAOW factor from a thing that's not supposed to be in Albion being there if you were the sort to actually read the little lore book items, of which one or two attested to dragons being utterly extincted for centuries. It felt like a great close to the whole first game, a worthy second climax. They just shouldn't have changed the voice early.

>>728904467
giving players the good guy welfare sword in TLC that is just as good as the sword of aeons but looked even cooler was lame, it cheapened the climax of the base game

There is a schizophrenic, obsessive shitposter on /v/ who hates Jack of Blades because a person he schizophrenically stalks is a fan of the character, so I made incidental Jack O Blades OC to fuck with him.

The random "lol" post was probably him.

That's quite the mental disease why Jack of everything?
Extremely bizarre like they could be hating Whisper or something I dunno Fable is not something I thought there would be a schizo for even really
>>
>>728904467
What was the point of coming up with the other "Of Blades" entities but then not expanding upon them at all?

>>728914916
Literally, unironically, because the guy had Jack of Blades in his profile picture on steam
>Why would he do this to begin with
Because the guy was screen capped with a criticism of Baldur's Gate III via a steam review that ended up being posted in the threads and the schizo came to the conclusion that all posts critical of Baldur's Gate III must be him. After realizing the guy was also a Souls pvper, he came to the conclusion all From Software threads were him.

He is among the most prolific schizophrenics on all of /v/ and is responsible for many impossible to discuss topics, like LoZ Tears of the Kingdom, through his dedicated autistic temper tantrums and samefagging to push opinions.

Because they were defeated a bajillion years ago and none of them were supposed to be alive, hence the surprise with Jaggo

I found Jack intriguing when I was young but let's be honest OP, he's just a background character that doesn't really do anything.
>>
>>728915543
Yeah but it's weak world building.
Usually when you do something like that, you come up with some cool shit like
>the queen faked her death and comes back as the bigger bad, the Knight was reincarnated as his anti-thesis

Otherwise, you could have reduced it to just being Jack and Jack alone.
>>
>>728916184
It just means Jack wasn't a universe ending threat tier by himself
You do not fucking have to make everything in the myths and legends of a game a real thing you fucking face
Hell, I'm sure a good chunk of the said lore even come from games after Fable 1 in the first place
>>
Whisper's giganigga brother you fight if you want to romance the big titty mayor slut is a "better" "villain" than Jack in all honesty. Also I wish I could have romanced Whisper. Why the fuck wasn't that an option, Peter???

>Hero, it's time to marry, you must choose a wife!
>Will you choose the evil big titty mayor slut?
>Or some random woman off the streets?
Why couldn't we marry our cute black childhood friend hero rival? Or fuck it, why not the little girl from our home town? Although grown up of course....
>>
>>728916526
>Or fuck it, why not the little girl from our home town? Although grown up of course....
I thought you could, but she would turn into a generic NPC after that one speech
>>
should i replay fable 1
>>
>>728916552
She does. IIRC it's random what generic female villager model she gets. I used to reload so she would get the hot model and then I'd marry her.

>>728916787
I think it holds up really well.
>>
>>728916352
You don't, but if you don't it should feel more impactful.

>Jack of Blades
>Good villain

You literally just think his design is cool. Just say that you think he looks cool. Stop this "omg he's such a good villain". No! You just think he looks cool.
>>
>>728905048
with his OG voice, he sounds like a cunning villain and he could believably pass as someone that the populace could be fooled into thinking is a hero (despite the menacing outfit), the filter they added not only sounds like shit but he sounds cartoonishly evil to a degree where it's hard to take any of the shit he says seriously.
>>
>>728917046
He also sounds cool*. He is a good villain in the context of the greater lore, in the immediate context of the game he is literally "evil and lusts for power" on the villain tier list, it's simplistic but it works fine in my opinion. However it absolutely is hamstringed by Molyneux only actually making half a game and omitting a thousands years worth of motivation and context
