you do know that "hero" is just a title for people that can use magic in the fable games you know this because now matter what choices you make in the game you yourself are called a hero either way, rather it's good or evil his title "hero of heroes" only means he is basically really powerful

Fable does something your not seeming to consider. They don't use the word "Hero" the same way. Hero does not equal good guy, going evil does not get you thrown out of the guild. the guild master himself says as much. Heroes in Fable are the ones trained to take on insurmountable tasks, making their definition much closer to the original demi-god version of the word than the modern good guy. Hercules was a jerk, and an idiot, but also a hero. As were any children of both gods and mortals. Jack is Hero of heroes because he is proven to be the strongest. not because he is the nicest

But in the fable series, “hero” just refers to someone who is of a number of bloodlines with special abilities. These include strength, skill, and will. Some heroes have all three (the protagonists)or some have just one (Hammer, Garth, and Reaver)

Y'know what really killed the Fable series, besides the lackluster final missions against Lucien and The Crawler? The fact that the series kept moving FORWARD in time. Look, I love my Master Flintlock Pistol as much as the next guy, but Fable is, always was, and always should've been first and foremost a FANTASY. Think about this for a second, if you pay attention to the Will throughout the series, it's clear that the further forward you go in the timeline, the weaker the will becomes, alluding to England's own stamping out of the possibility of faeries and such in IRL history. Since it's fantasy, and that's what we want, what the series should've done is go BACK in time. Instead of wanking over the details of the previous games and how great Fable 1 was, the rest of the series should've gone back in time to create certain parts of 1, when the magic was more powerful, the beasts were more terrible, and the world was more primal. Seriously, I wanna fight a Balvorn. They were known for devouring hundreds of people at a time, and that sounds brutal and amazing to me.

Bj Hunnicutt Lol. Not saying much but back in the day, Fable 2’s Baroque style setting was actually praised by many. Due to the fact that it was a unique setting with guns and highwaymen than other rpg games. Fable 1 didnt really had much of an interesting setting since its the same old medieval type world thats been played out in far superior rpg games like Elder Scrolls. Also, a fantasy setting can have guns and still be in fantasy genre. Hell, DC comics Sandman, one of the greatest fantasy stories of all time, takes place in the modern world.

@@godzilladude1231 It was still a bad direction for the series to be going in. Most of the fantasy elements from Fable 1 were abandoned/toned down to make way for a more industrial/victorian style. That's not what Fable is, Fable is medieval fantasy, not Industrial fantasy. Alot of the more interesting/fun stuff outside Fable 1 was in the *past* instead of the future. I'd rather see Jack of Blades when he was a hero over seeing how the Hero of Albion's great-great-Grandson is doing. I'd rather see Scythe when he was still properly alive over seeing 2 Kings having an argument. I'd rather see the magic when it was at its strongest over it being pushed aside in favour of guns. Etc.

Justa Person I think your talking about Fable 3. It was Fable 3 that kind of removed virtually almost all of the cool weapons AND takes place in Victorian Industrial style. Fable 2 takes place in the Age of Enlightenment and NOT in Industrial Age Victorian England. The story of Favle 1 was basically generic. Hack of Blades was awesome but the rest was meh. Fable 2’s setting was basically unheard of at that time hence why it was able to garner awards that Fable 1 didnt. Fable 2 didnt really remove much from Fable 1. Heck there are alot of things that Fable 2 added that Fable 1 didnt have like being able to choose to be a girl, family set up, multiplayer etc. The only thing it toned down was removal of armor but they reinstitate it with DLCs. Magic was not toned down but the new mechcanicw of the game with the permission to switch between mores of attacks with ease made the game easier. Sply put it was Fable 3 who took out most of it. They removed over three quarters of the weapons and the ability to mix magic made the game even easier. It also had a very useless set of melee attacks that dodnt make any sense so half of your weapons are useless.

@@godzilladude1231 FFS the age of enlightenment is very similar to the industrial revolution. The late parts of it are practically the same as the early parts of the industrial revolution. The watering down of the fantasy sucked and I'd expect my many people that played the first fable FIRST to think that. Fable 2 might of had improvements but it wasn't a massive improvement it's world was a down grade in quality though it had more quantity. Many people think that Fable 2 was the better game but then again Fable didn't sell half the copies that Fable 2 did. So most people played 2 or maybe 3 first and never touched the first game. Saying that Fable 2 was a more interesting setting are you fucking high? Lost Chapters shits on Fable 2 setting,characters and story.

Something to support your "Jack does whatever he feels like" theory is Jack of Blades kidnapped William Black and took him to the void, then he tried to enslave William with his sword of Aeons, however Will escaped with the sword. To me, that makes no sense. So i'd like to just believe that Jack kidnapped Will, took him to the void for tea and crumpets, then Jack gave his sword to Will (Although he made it look like an accident) then Will used that sword to defeat the Court.

Even as just a silly idea I think it would be interesting to have a Fable game where Jack is the playable main character. Because he's more or less a chaotic middle in a world where decisions are made on a whim all the time it would be interesting to see a demi-god interact and pave his path.

My only gripe with your theory is the definition of the word "hero" in Fable. It doesnt necessarily mean "good". This originates from William Black's Children who, despite many of them being petulant monsters, called themselves "heroes". Because of that, "Hero" is more related to our understanding of the word "fighter" than our understanding of the word "Hero". Being called the Hero of Heroes is just an acknowledgement of his reputation as a whole, not so much his actual good deeds. Of which he has done few.

King J. Grim The drink doesn't really carry much weight. Drinks are often named after pop culture references or literary figures. So that's not really a big piece of evidence. As for the toys, there Are toys of Scythe too, if my memory serves. Scythe, not being the mythical figure that Jack is, wouldn't be a popular child's toy. this tells me that the toys are meant more to be an Easter egg for players than a toy that children in game actually play with. Dont get me wrong, I agree with your conclusion: that the public reveers Jack (because Albion views it's heroes like we do Prowrestlers for some reason), I just disagree with your evidence.

Hell, I'm just glad you can take criticism and not be butt hurt over it. Though, at the end of the day, I still don't think the people of Albion adore Jack. They just respect/fear him like they do all other heroes. They just respect/fear him the MOST, because of his long history and the power that he wields. Honestly, my reference to wrestlers and their cultural impact strongly mirrors that of the Heroes of Albion. It's hardly a perfect comparison, though, given that wrestling is ultimately fake and Heroes can do so much more than what we pretend wrestlers can do.

The term Hero in Fable is best defined by the definition of heroism that has to do with feats of strength as opposed to nobility. To be heroic, or to be a hero, is to possess and utilize great power, but in a way that proves yourself. I believe this is why renown is such an important mechanic in Fable, because it's basically your measure of heroism. Jack of Blades would be considered a hero, because Fable uses an operational definitiom of hero to mean: one who is heroic - which means: capable of great feats of strength/skill/will. He would be considered the "hero of heroes" euphemistically to suggest that his feats of strength are unmatched - even if he's done terrible things. Reaver fits the same profile. He's notorious for abominable things, but he possesses great power.

Great Vid. Jack was my favorite villain in any game I’ve ever played. Though I wouldn’t agree he was a hero by conventional definition, he wasn’t really a villain either. He was pure evil In a time when perceptions of an objective morality are becoming antiquated, villains like Lucian and Logan are just downers. I hate having to take down the otherwise good guy who’s forced into making hard decisions because life is complicated and blah blah blah. I can’t stand this trend in game narrative where we have to humanize the villain and make them a sympathetic character. If you don’t have a good or evil antagonist you can’t really have a good or evil protagonist it just makes the whole thing moot. Jack was a perfect villain. By the end of the story you either thought “I have to kill this asshole to save the world.” or “I have to kill this asshole so I can be worse.” “Some men aren’t looking for anything logical they can’t be bought bullied, reasoned, or negotiate with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.” -The Dark Knight Jack was the original Joker.

In the Fable universe, Hero just means someone with Super Powers. Since the Jack Slayer/Hero of Oakvale died, there was less and less need for them or so people would have rightfully though until the Crawler came along. Firearms made it so that poorly trained peasants with the element of numbers, surprise and the reluctance of many Heroes to defend themselves, Heroes were proven to be easy to kill, thus few could have seen a need for them, and without the Super-Heroes we get to play via the Hero of Bowerstone and the Hero of Brightwall, they aren't wrong. But the word Hero is like Mutant in the Xmen universe.

Hero in the Fable series doesn't necessarily mean "good person". It's used to refer to anyone capable of great deeds, you can go on a murdering spree and become the most evil person in the land, and you'll just earn more renown. Hero of Heroes probably just refers to the fact that Jack is terrifyingly powerful and up to that point no Guild Hero could even be a match for him.

I don't understand Jack as he is immortal, as are all creatures from the void, no matter how many times the court of blades is abolished they will always return in a different time but, Jack always acted as though he only had one chance to retrieve the sword of aeons. Even if his soul was destroyed in the mask it will recreate over time because the dead are always said to go to the void in the fable universe and recreate himself what does Jack need? An abundance of souls and the rest of the court I assume will need the same so what happened/happens when one or all of them returns/returned? The court of blades will always be the biggest threat in Fable and hopefully we will see him return in the future... if fable doesn't die out first XD

Think of it like the time you retrieved the key from the captain's office in Jack's prison. Now's your chance, fuck it up and you'll have to go through years of torture til you get another.

Except the whole point of the fable series is that you can be both a good or an evil hero because the term hero isnt strictly attached to saving people but to fame and power.

I mostly agree with all the comments saying how the word "Hero" is usually used to simply refer to someone who has the powers of Will/Strength/Skill. However, notice how they call Twinblade an "Ex-Hero" in the game. This would assume that those who go against the Guild completely are in fact ousted as "Heros". The wiki also says how the Court finally broke the minds of Albion after the people resisted their rule for the third time. Being that Jack of Blades is in fact some all-powerful creature from the Void, and he burned down Albion twice and then turned the population insane, I would then lead to this just being a case of the victors re-writing history. When the Court broke the minds of the people, they made the people bow to them and it would then make sense that they twisted things so that they appear to be these benevolent leaders, the greatest of all. Again, if the people actually knew what Jack of Blades was, I feel like he wouldn't be regarded as a Hero, in the sense that the term "Hero" is saved for powerful humans. I'd argue it'd be like calling God a saint. Jack of Blades would be like a god in this scenario, so giving him the title of a worthy human isn't accurate

Jack was a hero until getting sick of the guild and turning into a Powerful demon that feasts on souls. Apparently in the new fable game coming out Jack of blades is in it and you can either fight him, play as him, or play on Jack's side

That's great man, I'm hoping it's for Dis2. I saw your review for it and noticed you were fair about it despite loving the first one you still pointed out it's flaws(a good thing). I pretty much felt the same after doing both character runs but what disappointed me the most was them giving Corvo a voice, it really changed the character I played from the first one but it was still an amazing game that didn't end up being caught in the 1st's shadow.

He definately can be called "Hero", Albion heroes can be both good & bad + he has all the abilities and high will power, only thing that could stand against, that he never was a human at all and other heroes are/were :) Did you know, that Albion really is an ancient name for the English part of Britannia? Jack's "real life story" matches with and old children's legend not so well known. It says that a Jack of "Spades" who was part of a cursed card game was really embarrassed of the fact that he had to stand alone while the king always had a queen. He turned his sign into a weapon and got to life then. The children's version also tells that he would snatch children for not being fair :D

So what exactly is Jack? Most speculate he is a demon of some kind. However, he compares himself to the Gods and Demons of Albion, saying “ the Gods and Demons you fear and worship are as nothing to me!”. That would mean Jack is acknowledging these powerful beings do in fact exist, but he is not one of them. I always thought he was a Demon, just not a Demon native to Albion. Similar to how in Marvel the Elder God Chthon is a demon native to earth, whereas Surtur is a demon native to the Asgard dimension.

The problem is that "hero" in the Fable franchise doesn't mean "someone who saves people," it means "someone with superpowers." It's more like the term "superhuman," so saying "Jack" is "hero of heroes" is saying he's so powerful that he is to superhumans as superhumans are to humans.
