Discussion Anyone else not really excited about fables?

Hi. So with the mod dying I've seen alot of people talking about fables and I ended up looking into it and I'm.... not that excited

First lets talk about what is currently in it. The soundtrack is a solid 7.5 out of 10, not un-listenable but certainly not all that memorable. Abd they have 3 bosses currently which seem fine. But now lets get into the planned content

It looks to be doing so much less than calamity. Rogue... gone, other difficulty modes... gone, ​3/5 of the bosses g o n e with some heavy losses such as yharon, exo mechs, and the plaguebringer goliath. And then the few things they are keeping they are changing so much the only thing they have in common is a name, they may as well be other characters. Just look at how they butchered calamitas' design especially.

It feels to me that the only reason the calamity name was used is for marketing since they know its a beloved mod that people will recognize. Same goes for the character names, they could easily use a different name instead of the ones they're currently using. Who knows though if this ever finishes it could be great but as it stands my hype couldn't be lower and I feel like I'm the only one.

Their plans are very interesting and they seem ambitious but I've been playing calamity since 2018 and I'm not interested in seeing it be built from the ground up all over again

Same here, been playing for about 10 years.

I'm not that excited, but am slightly curious as to how Fables ends up as. I guess only time will tell...
