Is kicking a chicken the true spirit of Fable? The team behind the upcoming reboot doesn’t see it as a question of right or wrong but more like a tradition too ingrained to drop. While they’re aiming to craft a fresh experience rather than recreate the Lionhead formula, one classic element remains a must-have: the humble chicken.
The reboot doesn’t want to be a nostalgia trip stuck in the old ways, but the developers acknowledge that certain quirks define the series. Among these, the ability to kick chickens isn’t just a silly side activity; it’s a small, iconic moment that encapsulates Fable’s charm and sense of humor. Keeping this feature alive signals respect for what fans have always loved, a little mischief amidst the adventure.
So even as the new Fable moves forward with new ideas and a modern approach, expect to see plenty of chickens in your path. They might still get kicked, because some traditions are simply too classic to retire.
