You can fart on someones head in Fable III.

Yeah, Bile Demon. It had spells like poison cloud and poison dart which then became fart and fart dart in the sequel. :lol:

Perhaps he's referring to the Rik Mayall or Derek and Clive strain of British humour rather than the Spike Milligan or John Cleese.

He's still missing the point, though. The genius of those works is that they knew how to make such things funny, not that they just referred to such things at all. It's toilet humour you can really sip your champagne and caviar cocktail to, intermittently pausing to quietly polish your monocle in expression of your amusement with the most humorous lines.

Rarely do I use the fart option in the Fable games anyway.

Also the Codex has become a parody of itself what with the use of "Fagle" and "Faggout 3" and all the other complete retardation that tries to be passed off as retarded puns in an effort to be ironic. You people use irony like Mac users.

So your enjoyment of hentai is in no way ironic? You actually take that shit seriously? Man I feel sorry for you.

Didn't what? If you mean "miss the point," you weren't the intended "he." I was referring directly to the original article.

Farting is good for your health, no one has died from excessive farting.

Dunno about that. I'm pretty sure I've caused a few premature deaths in my time :smug:

That qualifies as death by passive farting on their part.

Ergo, farts = lethal!

Call me old-fashioned, but if gaming isn't going to provide challenging puzzles or gameplay, shouldn't it at least seek to provide fantasy-fulfilment - you know, the old 'be a hero' or 'be a space pirate' or whatever?. It's what most of the current mob of developers seem to talk about anyway.

What gets me isn't just that the 'fart-option' is lame humour or lowbrow or whatever - it's that I can fart all I want in real life, just fine. It doesn't cost me anything. If I really really wanted to, I could probably go about farting on people's heads as well. I might have to be sneaky about it, but fuck, I could at least go around farting on people as they sit on park benches, or farting on small children as they walk past in the supermarket.

I had a housemate once who used to deliberately do that - if it was after a working day he'd be in a suit, so when the kid inevitably ran to their mother to say 'that man farted on me, on purpose' the mother wouldn't believe him/her. He actually got one little kid smacked using that method, and then smacked again when the kid tried to tell his mother that he pulled a finger at him when she wasn't looking.

I'd be surprised if Fable 3 offers that level of reactivity. So why make a feature out of something that we can easily do to a greater degree in real life? People complain about games that force simulatorish eating/drinking/resting onto a player - now you want players to micromanage farting as well?

Well put Azrael. I felt the same way about pointless things in GTA IV like TV and dating. A waste of the developers' time and resources.
