  • America= NO BOOBS!!!
    Germany=NO VIOLANCE!!!

  • Nah I thought it was fine based on what it told us about Georgie's aattitude towards the workers. It felt pretty nayural as a methid of developing his character seeing as he's a pimp.

  • no 2 minutes on wikipedia doesn't make you an expert on Japan, but you would be able to know that it was a constitutional monarchy and not a dictatorship. OP clearly knows nothing about Japanese culture besides that they have tentacle porn and sell panties in vending machines. My comments were based on travelling and experiencing that culture first hand.

  • Yes nudity is needed. N it was classy.. Not oversized boobs but real size and a real shape. They got the boobs spot on ..boobs made the game so cool and so adult but with a story that has characters that we can relate to from OUř own childhood

  • Demorlised?
    Allot of females wud see it as eempowering.

    Because they got guys weak and giving them thir hard earned cAsh buy showi.g their own body..

    Didn't really bother me. It was just a visual reinforcement of the extent to which these women are demoralized by Georgie. Owing to the langua

  • Suck it up you cry baby, it says its an ADULT game

  • I dont know

    Tell me it please..

    I think if it made you feel uncomfortable then the scene was doing its job. It wasn't nudity for the sake of nudity. It was to see how much th

  • If I remember it correctly:

    • Mermaid lives in the sea, but is curious about land and humans

    • Mermaid saves prince from shipwreck, falls in love with him and leaves him on the beach

    • Prince is found and tended to by a beautiful human girl. Prince wakes up, assumes the girl saved his life, and never sees the mermaid

    • Mermaid retreats to the sea, meets the Sea Witch and undergoes a magical transformation to give her legs in exchange for her tongue. The legs give her constant pain. She has to kiss and marry her true love in order to gain a soul, but if her true love marries another then she will die and dissipate into sea foam the next morning

    • Mermaid travels on land, meets the prince, who is captivated by her but is already in love with and engaged to the human girl he thinks saved him

    • The prince marries the girl and the mermaid is heartbroken

    • The Sea Witch says that if the mermaid kills the prince with a special dagger, she will be saved from her sad fate

    • The mermaid chooses not to kill the man she loves and his wife, and jumps into the sea at sunrise

  • I'm very pleased with the nudity plus its keeping with the theme of the comics.

    I'm still hung up on the length. I think back to Back to the future it took me days to complete one episode (granted it had puzzles).

  • After reading all the comments, I think it's okay. Definitely not necessary, but it does set up a disturbing tone of the girls being controlled by Georgie, especially since she doesn't say anything and he just yells at her. I wasn't shocked by her breasts and I don't think that's really the problem to be addressed, nipples are fine, and I'm against censorship of nudity. If there's a problem, it'd be less with deciding whether to censor her nudity, but more to do with players finding her nudity more erotic than disturbing. Like, boobs themselves aren't erotic, it depends on the mood and tone of the scene.

  • Oh cool..I saw the same type of thing on a episode of charmed..shit i never knew that was basically a copy of the real mermaid story..thanks bro

    In my rules, as long as it serves a purpose then its fine. If it doesn't, then it is pointless. Previously I thought it was just there to be...there, but some other people proved me wrong and therefor I changed my opinion as my argument was invalid :).

  • nudity? in europe we call that swimming outfit lol

  • oh really if you knew so much perhaps you would know that countries like Japan and England are run by a prime minister not the emperor or queen. The prime minister is appointed to the office by whoever is the ruler of the monarchy from the legislative branches of the government. The legislative branches of the government are officials elected by popular vote.

  • This is supposed to be gritty tale though. I'm glad they're sticking closer to the darkness of the source material. I mean, in The Walking Dead, the comics showed SO MUCH more controversial kinds of things.

  • The nudity really didn't bother me. I thought the scene worked very well as an introduction to the two characters. Like other people have said, the comics include nudity, both male and female, but not in a gratuitous way. More in that way that it assumes that the reader is mature and can handle such things. I thought that's the way it was approached in the game as well. Not a big deal.

  • okay... okay... YOU'R INVESTIGATING A FUCKING STRIP CLUB.

    GROW THE FUCK UP.

    hey, they could've showed the 2 people fucking in room 207 (206 or whatever fucking room it is) but they didn't.

  • God forbid they show nipples in a game where people get their heads chopped off, skulls chopped with axes, hookers are slapped, and men try and fail to commit suicide in graphic detail.

    BUT GOOD HEAVENS NO NIPPLES.

  • I like how hostile this community is. if you say something iffy you get disliked to hell. lol, people have to grow up.

  • While not hugely important, the scene was meaningful in establishing Georgie's character. They needed to show how much of a dick Georgie was to the girls who were working for him and the best way to do that is to show him berating and mistreating one on the job. And since the job happens to involve nudity, they showed nudity. Simple as that.

  • Plus her being topless like that makes it all the more depressing imo. I know some people look down on women in strip clubs and a lot do it as a necessity for money, but in the case of Fables its a bit more tragic. These are beings/creatures that lived glamorous tales, are thrown into a mundane, lame world, and having to settle for far, far less. Just to make ends meet. I don't think it sinked in for me just how bad it sucks to be a part of Fabletown 'till she was, stressed out, dancing for Georgie.

    Just saying it doesn't have that same impact versus showing how lame it could be. Plus how many decapitations and blood trails/splatters have there been now as well as bestial violence? It takes a nipple to complain about adult themes rather than smashing a lamp post into someone's face, gouging at eyes or ripping at limbs? Serious?

  • I hate topics like this for two reasons ...well maybe more than two but I'll start with two..

    1. The person raising the issue gets picked on or taken the wrong way
    2. the subject gets taken out of context completely

    It's a mature game fact

    Mature not only meaning violence ,swearing, but it actually hits hard on some very important issues on current state of our world right now regarding how lower class are treated compared to those of higher status and showing things in a real light when you add fables to our world you see how you can relate and how they adapt to it.

    Your focusing on the wrong things ...I understand certain people maybe upset by "nudity" but it has it's reasons ..given the situation it was rather tasteful compared to films and other games I've played.

    I'd like to add I'm a woman as well...before you thumbs down thinking it's a guy preaching lol

  • Yup

    You get trolls in real life to it seems...

    :D I made a fable funny

    ..cos...trolls...in fable...eh...what ever

    I like how hostile this community is. if you say something iffy you get disliked to hell. lol, people have to grow up.

    why is everyone upset over this? unless you're a teenage boy who's always horny as fuck, you wouldn't be making a huge deal out of this. and kids and teens shouldn't even be playing these games!

    oh my gawd, they showed a woman half-naked, woopdy-fuckin-doo

  • If this was part of the 4 month delay then why not just censor it out. It wouldn't exactly ruin the entire episode would it?. It wouldn't even have too be discrete it's a comic after after all black bars would do fine. I don't really see what the big deal is, as has already been said we've witnessed a beheaded... well head really... how is nudity worse than that?.

  • why should we censor anything? this isn't a kids game!

    If this was part of the 4 month delay then why not just censor it out. It wouldn't exactly ruin the entire episode would it?. It wouldn't even

  • I agree, i just ment if it was part of the process of the 4 month delay than it might have well just been censored to speed things up in i's release (obviously the nudity thing wouldn't have been a huge part of the 4 month delay but it might have had something to do with it)

    why should we censor anything? this isn't a kids game!

  • Maybe they have to practice animating tits. Remember, they're gonna be making a Game of Thrones game soon. And you can't have a Game of Thrones anything without nudity at some point. It's sort of an integral part of source material, kinda like you can't have Star Wars without lasers, y'know? So there's that.

    All joking aside though, while nudity wasn't COMPLETELY necessary, you're in a strip club. This is what happens in a strip club. And it's not a kids game, so why shy away from nudity? Games really need to grow out of this "violence is okay, nudity is the devil" mentality. By the way, this is hardly the first time we've seen nudity in the Wolf Among Us. Episode 2 preview had it already. Should've seen it coming I guess?

  • It's easy to read. Good counter argument. Good excuses

  • Under the extreme risk that I might troll this thread, I vote for nipple polygons. Seriously, you can't just paint these on!

  • This makes me wonder why is she in Fables if that's her true story. The Sea Witch just let her escape? Or the Fable version is different again
