Aurora, an island to the east of Albion, isn't considered a part of the kingdom during the first and second games. By the time of Fable III, however, the player brings them into Albion (though whether it's as an active participant or just a colony to exploit for resources, is uncle
This selfish man sitting in the confessional booth is here not because he truly feels guilty, or sad, but because he wishes to escape the fate he has created for himself. He felt no empathy for the homeless man he swiftly worked to death, and he never thought twice about the servants he had in his charge. In fact, he didn’t even seem to care for his wife much; he just wanted a supermodel, because men are supposed to want these things. This man is the epitome of desire, using any means necessary to get what he wants, or what he should want - and the means here was c
To open the Millfields Demon Door, the protagonist needs to be ugly and overweight (in the opinion of the door). This means that players have to get themselves to max weight by consuming plenty of fatty food like pies and fish. Whereas to become ugly, they need to wear some awful clothing. A set of pajamas where each part is dyed a different color tends to w
What many fans expected going into this trailer was a possible DLC. That could be forgiven despite showing so much of the storyline. To the surprise of many, it was, in fact, a character Creation Systems named Abby's perspective of some of the major beats of the main g
The quickest way to achieve that is to use the kingdom treasury — only accessible to Kings and Queens. Put a bunch of money into it, and the purity slider will move to the good side, whereas taking money from the treasury will have the exact opposite effect. Regardless of how they do it, as long as players are on one end of the scale, the door will open once they approach
The Stand throws the bag of popcorn at the man and tells him; "You can see your destiny through a trivial, little thing." The task is trivial, yes, but the stakes are high, and the popcorn is emblematic of everything this man is. He’s a corn magnate - as ridiculous as that is - and this symbol of his success is also the harbinger of his undoing. It feels to me like a postmodern Aesopica - Aesop’s Fables - and the untimely undoing of once humble, but often selfish characters within. When a goose lays golden eggs the owners slice it open in search of gold surely hidden inside, only to find nothing. This unrivalled greed has always been an undeniable sin, but it takes on a different flavour when under capital
Of course, Fable should also bring back the high level of customizability that the series is known for. In previous titles, players have been able to fully customize their heroes in a variety of ways including their clothing, hair, gender, tattoos, and even their height and weight. Fable will have to keep the same level of personalization or even increase it otherwise it just won't feel like it is part of the series at all. With Fable using the powerful ForzaTech engine , it will be interesting to see how much the customization translates or if there will be even more options for players to take choose f
In the second game, the Door asks the player to dress up silly and bring him cheese, of all things, before he would agree to open up. Here in Fable III, the Door admits that he had no idea what to ask and made that request up on the spot, hoping the Hero would just give
Another opportunity that Fable could take advantage of is upgrading the game's combat system. Every hero should still be able to wield melee weapons, ranged weapons, and magic, but Fable would benefit greatly from increasing the depth of all the options available to the player. Weapons that all feel vastly different from one another would help players be able to better flesh out their own unique playstyle while also adding some much-needed depth to the series' combat encount
Fable should also invest heavily into the game's magic system so that it has a breadth of options for players to choose from to use magic in aggressive and non-aggressive ways. Fable should also bring back the co-op that fans of the series love, but it could do a lot to improve on past iterations as well. Allowing players to make vastly different builds would allow multiplayer to be more rewarding while allowing online players to leave a bigger footprint on other players' worlds would be great for players doing an entire co-op run of the g
