Is the game really canon to the series?

[edit]

In the game the mirror pretty much breaks when Crane smashes it. But in the series, the mirror is quite resistant to physical force. Also, Crane seems to be the interim mayor in absence of King Cole. Wasn't he the mayor in the series at some point early in Fabletown's existence, Snow White being his deputy? I see that the source is pretty much "Word of God" (TVtrope). But is there more known about this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.218.80.238 (talk) 19:11, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have not read the series, so I can't answer on all the questions but we know that this is repeated stated as a prequel (hence, from what a friend told me, the end of Ep 1 freaked everyone out since it was the apparent death of a character that was a main player in the comics), staying in the canon of how Fabletown came about but enough space to play around. They are working with the comic's creator (just like they do on Walking Dead), and while Word Of God tropes are just that, they are completely valid sourcing here for Wikipedia as long as we're confident on the reliability of the publication source (like an Polygon or IGN interview). As for the issues of incongruity between this and the comic, we'll need to have secondary sources to point those out as being "important". --MASEM (t) 19:23, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough, I guess. And the creator (Bill Willingham) has indeed mentioned that they wished to keep it into the canon. I don't quite know how it would work out with the multiple storylines in the game. I see that major themes are quite intact (and the character you mentioned was found to be alive in the second episode). (I'm quite new to working on wikipedia, and I just pretty much just raise such topics on the talk pages. Is that the proper etiquette?) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.218.80.238 (talk) 21:47, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Need confirmation on something

[edit]

Can anyone that played through ep5 and ended up killing (or trying to kill) Crooked Man at the steel mill affirm what events happen after that? Is there still a scene at the Witching Well , etc? Given how important that scene is, it feels weird if the Crooked Man was killed off before it, but since that's not the direction I took, I just need confirmation what goes on to adjust the plot a bit. --MASEM (t) 20:24, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Tried both, thanks to replays. You turn up at the scheduled "trial", corpse in hand. At this point, it becomes a raging debate about Bigby's wild tendencies, and whether he's just an animal or doing whatever the hell he wants -- with a divide amongst people like Gren who just care he's dead, and people like Beast who are all "This is wrong!". Bluebeard says they shouldn't blame Bigby for doing what he did -- it's only natural, after all, being the wolf he is -- but questions Snow's inability to "her mutt" and wonders whether the two of them really should be in charge of Fabletown. At which point, Nerissa shows up (just like before) and ends up swaying the crowd to your side. In this scenario at least, you can apparently walk out of the "trial" early.
The scene after the trial plays out the same. Here's a YouTube link if you want (understand if you wouldn't, games and spoilers and the like, very sacred matters). – Bellum (talk) (contribs) 21:44, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, that's surprising a large chunk of possible change in plot there. I rewrote the ending of the plot to reflect this at a basic level. --MASEM (t) 21:54, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
