It'd be nice if you cited where you found these glitches, I don't see Hotshotwire's name mentioned anywhere, and I know he put a lot of work into finding how to enter Bowerstone North early.
I didn't realize he was the person who discovered it (I am actually subscribed to his channel too) Usually, in cases where there is a definitive "first person" or if someone specifically tells me to make the video or tells me about the glitch, I tend to give them a shoutout, or show their comment/give them some sort of mention. But in this case I had already seen multiple different videos floating around of this glitch, and had multiple people telling me about it and wanting me to make a video, so it was one of those situations where I finally just made the video after some time. Definitely not my intention to steal anyone's thunder or anything, just trying to spread fable knowledge and give the viewers what they ask for This video in particular was the second one I made, having made the original video with TLC version of the game, someone had mentioned the anniversary method, and I decided to try it out myself I noticed there were some nuances between doing the glitch in anniversary and TLC so I decided to share those differences, as well as prove that it is still possible in the anniversary version
@@PTMG I appreciate you responding to this. I noticed you'd commented on the original video of BSN early (th-cam.com/video/4vWmGUB3PdA/w-d-xo.html ), and yeah - the Anniversary method of doing Etemmode v3 to enter Bowerstone North early is almost identical really, and it's something that'd been done for a while (see Budget's video on this too, he gives the actual name of the trick and was made with assistance from us th-cam.com/video/t0L0ZrxwOXU/w-d-xo.html ). For future it'd probably be best to credit at least someone or the earliest uploaded video you could find, it seemed dishonest to not credit anyone, I'm sure you understand how it is from our perspective seeing the speedrunning community's work repackaged without any credit. Nothing against you, but more things to consider in the future. For Fable if you're ever in doubt I can point you to the original source of basically any video/glitch. And to confirm your other question yeah, I was the original finder of the Etemmode glitch; a member of the speedrunning community decided to name it that after me after I showed it, Hotshot Wire did a lot of work developing the method seen in your video. (I'll give you the fact that I never listed my original video showing the original method, I wouldn't expect anyone to find this but here's a link for posterity - th-cam.com/video/pxqEBbD7CTc/w-d-xo.html)
After you mention that comment I do actually remember his video specifically. Someone wanted me to make the video a lot sooner and I decided against it because I didn't want to steal the light from his video, and wanted to give it some time to cook for a while. It wasn't until multiple other videos started surfacing of the glitch and more people started suggesting it that I finally did it, and by that time I had forgotten where I originally found it. But yeah again I usually try to credit people when it's obvious who to credit, and I never try to take credit for glitches anyway so when I don't credit it's definitely never to try to steal someones credit, and is usually a while after everyone has known about it.
I just did this on the Series X, only took a couple of tries. Slowly walk up to the bowerstone exit, once the doors open, stop. Equip your trophy to start the timer. Start hammering start (3 lines), while gently pushing your stick forward about half way. If you don't get the trophy failure after about 5 seconds, you are good to go (depending on your walk speed). When pushing the guard, just shove him in the corner by the lamp and you can sneak right in after it teleports you out. Thanks for the video!
Works for xbox one x/s 2025 So you need to tilt forward as if it was a d-pad DO NOT HOLD the joystick forward! Do that and press the back button simultaneously. He even said he is tapping forward in his video to..... Tap forward and the inventory button if that makes sense.
This works on xbox. You must spam walk forward start and b. It took me like 2 min to do. To move the guard male sure you still have the trophy out or it wont work
You don't need to press "B" just button mash start as you walk forward. Also everyone already knows about the trophy cause that's what he did in the video...
i know a easier way where the time doesn’t matter. First, make a save inside Bowerstone South then go outside. Do this same glitch with the trophy but do it on the bowerstone south entrance door, once you know you passed the loadzone and its working load the save you just made inside bowerstone. You will then be in the glitched state and should be able to move the guard freely without a trophy timer. After you move the guard far away show off your trophy then you can just wait for the timer to deplete and it warps you back to the bowerstone south entrance, then just go inside north. I haven’t tried it yet but i’ll leave an edit if it works.
I wonder what happens if you reach max renoun and try to go to bowerstone north before arena because that guard dude always would say something about being well known enough
I lose the trophy as soon as I get near the load zone, the menu does nothing I lost the trophy even with the menu open as soon as the load would trigger, xbox series s 2024.
from what I've heard it's harder on xbox, but it's all about timing the menu pauses with your movement just right If it's not working with whatever menu you are using, try the other menu (like there's the "pause" menu and the "hero" menu or whatever) Like on PC the pause menu is the esc key and the hero menu is the F key, I assume xbox uses start and select for those
If it helps I just held forward and spammed the map button and B on Xbox one and got it to work but the guard has to basically be where he got shoved to in the video or he's too close and will stop you
I don't think so as they are scripted to the story progression (beating the arena) Keys and chests in the area though yes (although most likely not the bowerstone manor)
As far as I know it doesn't mess anything up I think there is one instance of the game acting funny if you use this glitch to get into twinblades camp early, and then guild teleport to his camp instead of sneaking past the bandits etc. There's like one side quest that happens in that region (the one where you rescue the traders brother from that path to twinblades camp) and I think it like crashes the game or something I can't quite remember but that was the only thing I ever noticed from using this glitch
@PTMG I got it to work once with the hero menu but I pushed the fucker directly in the middle of the top of the stairs before the time ran out 😅 then after that each method would just make my screen black if I spammed so I'm just assuming the glitch, glitches lol
hmm, it could just be that you need to go a little bit past where the sign disappears You will know if it's working too, because it will literally let you keep walking into the doorway and it will never teleport you to lookout point
@@PTMG Yea if I go deeper I get sent to lookout point everytime so far.. I wonder if it's due to my pause screen taking forever. Like once I hit pause there's a 3 second delay where it's just a black screen so I can't spam it
Tried the old methods, they don't work for bringing weapons in. Half the properties you can buy by leading the villagers outside and killing them, but I think the houses with children can't be bought, from memory. Ye old splash damage from fireball level 4 did it without gaining a bounty or negative karma.
@@ReversedSoulX Instead of holding forward, flick it forward and press start, instead of holding the stick. You can tell the glitch worked when you have gotten the door mostly open but you have not left the town yet.
I honestly feel the same exact way lol I think it;s just timing Definitely works best if you start in the morning, as opposed to closer to the evening A lot of it is just lucking out and having 1 or 2 of those box carrying dudes near the front Also try not to forget the shop keepers will always be there, and so will the bar/bar patrons usually if you show it to at least one of the shop keepers, then run for the bar and show everyone there, you should have enough to get it done
Ah, I see how this glitch works. You are trying to nudge yourself past the threshold to load the next area. Once you are past that threshold (I.E. Past the doors) you are then glitched. That would have been nice to have explained in the video.
hey me again hahaha i was wondering if there is a glitch for the 350 version to get weapons and being able to use magic in bowerstone i need to cheat at the fucking card game since im shit and need to use the slow down time spell
It'd be nice if you cited where you found these glitches, I don't see Hotshotwire's name mentioned anywhere, and I know he put a lot of work into finding how to enter Bowerstone North early.

No problem!
instead of doing that go into stealth mode and you will walk slow enough
Thanks for this, time to glitch a few hundred ages potions after having beaten the game 30+x thru since the TLC days on the first Xbox.
Glad I could help
still works!! just did it on xbox one in about 5 mins stealth walking helped a bunch
2023, still works on xbox
Love u
Confirmed works on Xbox Series S/X 2024
Never have done this glitch in my life and just did it successfully on my first try.
nice
glad to help
Works for xbox one x/s 2025

This glitch still works on pc 11 / 03 / 2023 :)
I always forget everyone else does dates the "right" way, and I'm thinking damn he tried this glitch in november and just now left a comment lol
@@PTMG I have a problem with 1 achievement, it is the one of "Great balls of fire", could you tell me how I get it?
I'm pretty sure you have to beat the game on heroic mode for that one
I doubt anything will get patched at this point lol
This works on xbox. You must spam walk forward start and b. It took me like 2 min to do. To move the guard male sure you still have the trophy out or it wont work
Can you explain in a little more detail how you got this to work on xbox I've never gotten it to work
thats not true

Nothing changes, the dialogue is attached to quest/game progress not renown
It's so much easier in The lost chapters
Yeah I almost gave up trying but someone else said they got it to work so I kept going
And now video topic. How would you do this fable anniversary with normal Xbox 360 controllers
should be the same just different control scheme
I haven't played it on xbox tho
I lose the trophy as soon as I get near the load zone, the menu does nothing I lost the trophy even with the menu open as soon as the load would trigger, xbox series s 2024.

is that pause or select on xbox?
Either or i've done it both ways work just fine@@PTMG
If it helps I just held forward and spammed the map button and B on Xbox one and got it to work but the guard has to basically be where he got shoved to in the video or he's too close and will stop you
Good to know for xbox players
Can you do the Quests in Bowerstone North early? Also can you get all of the chests & Silver keys early?
I don't think so as they are scripted to the story progression (beating the arena)
Keys and chests in the area though yes (although most likely not the bowerstone manor)
Anyone else have issues with the pause menu loading too slow for it to work?
try using the hero menu instead of the pause menu
@@PTMG that's what I'm using
These are all fantastic glitches getting into Twinblade's Camp and Bowerstone North early, but do these glitches mess up something later in the game?
As far as I know it doesn't mess anything up
I think there is one instance of the game acting funny if you use this glitch to get into twinblades camp early, and then guild teleport to his camp instead of sneaking past the bandits etc.
There's like one side quest that happens in that region (the one where you rescue the traders brother from that path to twinblades camp) and I think it like crashes the game or something I can't quite remember
but that was the only thing I ever noticed from using this glitch
This glitch hates me lol. My screen just goes black and then i go into the lookout
the timing is pretty funky with this one
try the other "pause" button if its not working (there's a hero menu and a pause menu)
@PTMG I got it to work once with the hero menu but I pushed the fucker directly in the middle of the top of the stairs before the time ran out 😅 then after that each method would just make my screen black if I spammed so I'm just assuming the glitch, glitches lol
Still watching again master❤️
I don't get it, I get to where you can't see the lookout point sign, keep the trophy thing going, but when I get to the guard he still sends me back
hmm, it could just be that you need to go a little bit past where the sign disappears
You will know if it's working too, because it will literally let you keep walking into the doorway and it will never teleport you to lookout point
@@PTMG Yea if I go deeper I get sent to lookout point everytime so far.. I wonder if it's due to my pause screen taking forever. Like once I hit pause there's a 3 second delay where it's just a black screen so I can't spam it
Hey that’s really cool Thankyou for
This
Yuhp no problem
There glitch to bring in weapons ? AND buying property?
not that I know of
On the original Xbox version it was possible with the shovel glitch
Tried the old methods, they don't work for bringing weapons in.
Half the properties you can buy by leading the villagers outside and killing them, but I think the houses with children can't be bought, from memory.
Ye old splash damage from fireball level 4 did it without gaining a bounty or negative karma.
GREAT TUTORIAL! Worked first try on Xbox one
Glad it helped
How?
@@ReversedSoulX Instead of holding forward, flick it forward and press start, instead of holding the stick.
You can tell the glitch worked when you have gotten the door mostly open but you have not left the town yet.
How do you know when it works? What are you looking for to tell you, "ok I tricked the game time to go the guard" ? I keep walking out the gate....
You'll know it works because you will have walked into the gate without it taking you back out to lookout point
@@PTMG so if transition to out point it didn't work, regardless of how far I walk through the gate?
Every time I do it everyone dissapears in the town
I honestly feel the same exact way lol
I think it;s just timing
Definitely works best if you start in the morning, as opposed to closer to the evening
A lot of it is just lucking out and having 1 or 2 of those box carrying dudes near the front
Also try not to forget the shop keepers will always be there, and so will the bar/bar patrons
usually if you show it to at least one of the shop keepers, then run for the bar and show everyone there, you should have enough to get it done
I got it to work on the xbox one x by following your instructions but pressing the start button instead of select
Nice
I think I have heard that it is easier on xbox
@@PTMG Using select I tried it four times and it didnt work so when I used start I was not sure if it would work yet it did first try
How do you know when it works? What are you looking for to tell you, "ok I tricked the game time to go the guard" ?
This works well!!
Yeah I can consistently get it first try now right after wasp menace
This time I did it lol thanks man! Its harder on controller though
I could definitely see how it would be harder with a joystick
Easier to communicate with ghosts than it is pulling this glitch attempt on xbox, how the hell does anyone do it 🤕
Not subject Related , BUT... You sound like governor Ron de santis😂🤝🏻💪🏻👋🏻✌🏻
lmfao what
Been trying to do this forever. Cant get it work
its harder on anniversary than on TLC, but still possible
just gotta tap forward and the menu button at the same time and keep spamming that
@PTMG if I gave you my login info could you pull it off for me?
I did it twice in a row using the pause menu and it is much easier 🤗
Glad to hear it
Works on xbox cloud and xbox, thanks master
glad to help
Bro how
Not video related but Plok should try to find glitches in elder scrolls blades
still haven't played that one yet
Still watching 💗
This is when I hate playing on console it’s way to difficult on console
You also get more hotkey slots on PC (for potions/emotes/spells/etc)
@@PTMG definitely the quick access to potions isn’t even really quick on console if another button has to be pressed for it as well.
Is there a way to do this on Xbox one?
the same way you just have to be better with your timing of pressing the pause button/walking forward
How you get whispers broach
From the first whisper fight I'm pretty sure (after hobbe contest)
You can use any trophy though it doesn't have to be that one
Work Nice on Xbox, just need 1 atemp
nice
Must be patched, impossible for me
Spent 6hrs trying now
@@hazeprophet420 bro same, try'd like 100 times now
is there a way to do this on console?
should be able to, I think some people in the comments have mentioned they made it work (I only have PC version)
Ah, I see how this glitch works. You are trying to nudge yourself past the threshold to load the next area. Once you are past that threshold (I.E. Past the doors) you are then glitched. That would have been nice to have explained in the video.
Pretty much the gist of it
I thought the video made it pretty obvious though that you had to go pretty far into the doorway
hey me again hahaha i was wondering if there is a glitch for the 350 version to get weapons and being able to use magic in bowerstone i need to cheat at the fucking card game since im shit and need to use the slow down time spell
I thought i remembered hearing that slow time works for the pub games
Only mods allow you to use magic and weapons in Bowerstone. It's not possible on console
Just did it in series x :D
nice :D
Impossible! Is it patched?
0:30 guess I don’t need to watch.
lol I guess if you already know how to do it that answers the question of if it works or not
As I suggested, nice
opening the menu right as you hit the doorway is an effective method
Yeah it's such a thin margin but once you get an idea for where it is its a lot easier

Nice video sir Plok
Good day.
I just got done playing fallout 76....kinda boring ngl
I didn't really like any of the fallout games
Fallot 4 was kinda alright just cause you could build houses and bases etc
dianna#0788 from needle fang whale ,hoping to be my future manager
When I move him on Xbox he finds his way back.
damn thats lame
Can always just get the lychfield graveyard teleport but thats a hell of a walk still lol
pretty sure this is patched by now
definitely not
I really think it is too. There's an invisible barrier preventing you from entering a new area with a trophy out
