Ever wondered what it would feel like to attend the Winter Palace in Dragon Age?

Or, more accurately, one of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette’s courtly parties at Versailles?

This is Fêtes Galantes!!

The full Versailles vlog is finally live on my channel now. Come with me and find out. 👑🪞🐉

Okay, I can finally say this… I’m officially covering The Blood of Dawnwalker with Bandai Namco across launch, and I am VERY excited about it!! 🩸🦷

Happy launch day!! I’ll be in Vale Sangora from today, digging into Coen, the 30-day time system, the human-by-day, vampire-by-night split, plus all the vampires, villains, cursed choices and whoever I inevitably end up getting far too attached to.

Anyone else picking it up?

I PLAYED FABLE. 🐔😭

After years of banging on about Albion, I somehow ended up at Gamescom actually playing Fable, meeting the lovely Playground team, talking regional British nonsense with Ralph Fulton while dressed in a frilly blouse, and eventually acquiring a chicken. Naturally.

I’ve now put together my full hands-on impressions, covering Bowerstone, Wraithmarsh, combat, Will, all the little Fable details I spotted and what it truly felt like finally getting that controller in my hands!!

Full video is live now. Link in bio! ❤️🐔

When Jackdaw met Jack of Blades!!! ⚔️

This week at gamescom I got around 40 minutes hands-on with Fable, caught up with some of the lovely people making it, and came away with an alarming amount to talk about!!

I cannot WAIT to tell you all what I thought. Proper impressions coming very soon once I’m back in ol’ Blighty and have sufficiently recovered from all the chicken kicking and bratwurst. 🇩🇪🐔

See you very soon, Chicken Chasers! ❤️

Character creator, but make it late-1770s Versailles!!

White hose, lace frills, oyster satin, powdered complexion, grey wig, black tricorne, and one deeply unreasonable decision to become “Le Comte de Corbeau” for the night.

Full Versailles vlog is coming soon, from getting ready to stepping into the Hall of Mirrors. 👑🪞

Every lore detective needs somewhere to pace around with peppermint tea and make a theory worse… 🔎

This is mine: the Teahouse, built from black peel-and-stick wallpaper, books, candles, trinkets, and a frankly heroic number of command strips.

A ridiculous room, really. But it makes me want to make better videos! 🕯️🐦‍⬛

Lookin’ like an angel on the walls of Versailles, indeed!! 🪞🥂

Walking through the Hall of Mirrors in full court dress, kissed by all that gold light, felt like stepping into a fallen society caught in amber: a soirée in the glowing, dying prestige of a civilisation that no longer exists and could never really be replicated anywhere else on earth. 👑

Fable is bringing romance, marriage and family life back, so naturally my response to Natasia Demetriou playing a brutal, sweary gothic heiress was less “what fascinating implications for Bloodstone’s political future” and considerably more can I marry her?

Nothing confirms Jenny is romanceable. This has not discouraged me in the slightest.

The full video goes much deeper into Bloodstone itself, including Jenny and Jacob, Reaver, Wraithmarsh, the Cult of Shadows and the Hero of Blood:

Playground has just given us our first proper look at the dark origins of this new Albion!!

The new History of Albion series is digging back into William Black, the Court and Albion’s first Heroes, but crucially, none of it is being presented as absolute truth. Instead, we have folklore, contradictory accounts and Brian Bifford, an historian whose confidence is already doing considerably more work than his evidence.

I’ve gone through the first entry, On the Dark Origins of Albion, in my latest video, breaking down the new lore, the murals and what it could all mean now that Jack of Blades appears to be back.

🎥 Full video is live on the channel now.

I’m not saying I’m Jack of Blades, but the comments have been busy... Full breakdown is live now 🐔🎭
