Name video games that has a fairy tale story

Odin Sphere.

Comfy fantasy games you should play:
>Final Fantasy IX
>Etrian Odyssey series
>Breath Of The Wild (to an extent)
>Atelier Iris
>Secret Of Mana (ESPECIALLY SEIKEN DENSETSU 3)

This is stupid. The “clues” are baseless shit. Reddit got bored and made a story for Dark Souls. That’s that.

Fable.

The whole game , the narration , the world , the atmosphere , even the music alludes to a fairytale.

Blood & Wine.

>If the developers don’t state it in twitter then it’s baseless conjecture
Move along brainlet.

What I'd really like is a Berserk game done right. I want it to capture the feel of the 1997 anime and even be a lot more dark than it already is (which is still a lot).

crimson shroud

Don’t be a faggot. That’s literally all explained in game. Just not directly

Ghost of a Tale
although i do wish there was a video game based on a real fairy tale (cinderella, snowwhite, etc).

Fable is more like Shrek than an actual fairy tale.

Harvest Moon

Why do people itt think fairy tales are mythological? fairly tales don't involve some massive quest which has ramifications for the whole world like Elder Scrolls or Dark Souls, but are individual journeys.

that's what I wanted to see, if there was a video game like that.

>Why do people itt think fairy tales are mythological?
Because they are. Scale isn't a defining trait of a mythological narrative.

The Witcher games are about as close as possible.

>Because they are.
insofar that folk lore is mythical, sure. But, my point still stands. There is no actual fairy tale that involves a lord of the rings style quest that I can think of. Usually the loftiest it gets is marrying a princess/prince and becoming a monarch.

>that's what I wanted to see, if there was a video game like that.
Maybe Majora's Mask. It has a lot of the right components.

The Witcher 1-3
Ghost of a Tale
Trine 1-2
Child of Light

There is no actual line between what you consider "fairytale" and "myth". The illusion of such distinction that you have is actually most likely a result of very specific situation of christian-cultures folklore, where the Church has managed to usurp a monopoly on grander scale tales. But even in more forgotten areas of Europe - not to speak about pretty much all non-christian societies - have thousands of fairytales that actually explain shit like "Why is the sky blue", "how did Lucifer become the rule of the Hell" (that is actually a fairly popular fairytale in my country) and so on. Again: scale does not actually matter, and while "grander" scale fairytales are less common in Europe and not the first thing most people think off, it just takes a second look into classic folklore collections to see that is really just an illusion.

>There is no actual line between what you consider "fairytale" and "myth".
both are vague terms. I don't see why you're trying to force your opinion as the only one.
>The illusion of such distinction that you have is actually most likely a result of very specific situation of christian-cultures folklore, where the Church has managed to usurp a monopoly on grander scale tales.
I wouldn't consider the Imperial cult of Pagan Rome or other pre-christian religions e.g. the Cult of Apollo to be "fairy tales." I don't think the people who lived during the time and practiced those faiths did either.
>But even in more forgotten areas of Europe - not to speak about pretty much all non-christian societies - have thousands of fairytales that actually explain shit like "Why is the sky blue", "how did Lucifer become the rule of the Hell" (that is actually a fairly popular fairytale in my country) and so on.
I don't doubt this, but it seems a etymological issue which we likely won't agree on. Let's take Dark Souls. If you were to interpret the story as "How did the chosen undead come to rule the Age of Dark," I suppose it could match your lucifer example. But if you interpret the story of the change from the age of fire to the age of dark or continuation it does not seem the same to me, since afaik fairy tales typical have a personal component.
>Again: scale does not actually matter, and while "grander" scale fairytales are less common in Europe and not the first thing most people think off, it just takes a second look into classic folklore collections to see that is really just an illusion.
I see your point, and although i'm not convinced i'm wrong you have a rational basis for your opinion.

>both are vague terms. I don't see why you're trying to force your opinion as the only one.
It's not the only one, but it is the most informed one in this thread. One that folklorists and anthropologists would agree with.
The only other alternative option is that a myth and fairytale could be distinguished by level of institutionalization - that is whenever the particular story is connected to a specific religious rite or institution.
But that does not actually help your point, because again: the scale or particular content of the tale does not play a role, merely it's relationship to other institutions.

>I don't think the people who lived during the time and practiced those faiths did either.
The point is that people in those eras would absolutely not comprehend the distinction. The notion of a fairy tale as you have is largely a modern invention. Those people inhabited billions of mythological narratives in a way you probably would not be able to comprehend at all.

>since afaik fairy tales typical have a personal component.
They really don't. I'm also reminded of the stories of how Moon became yellow, or how Elves became invisible - the second being considered a classical national Islandic fairytale.

>I see your point, and although i'm not convinced i'm wrong you have a rational basis for your opinion.
I fucking hope so, since I get paid for studying this subject.

I know exactly what you mean unlike everyone else ITT. The only thing that comes close to authentic fairy tale fantasy is Old-School Runescape if you ask me.

is a fairy tale distinct from a fable?

Not to my knowledge. It's possible some crazy folklorist may have attempted to push such categorization (especially in 19th century people were OBSESSIVE about boxing stuff) but today, neither anthropologists nor folklorists draw such distinctions.

In LITERARY theory, on the other hand, a traditional distinction between the two does exist. Fable is a story in which animals, plants or inanimate objects act as humans, and usually act out a moralistic tale.
However, this distinction, while still being often taught in schools, is virtually meaningless and neither observed in common usage, nor doing anything that giving low level literature teachers something to feel smug about.

Zelda games!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want something like a classic Disney cartoon tale but more dark and mature.

Modern games are too focused on characters to make a good fairy tale.
