Great idea. Always wanted to see cloaks flapping whenever there is a breeze. Looks kind of cool also.

I don't know if this sounds good but what about throwing away that aging aspect? I know its neat to see how your character's look will change as you age but it is unnerving to see your character age within a day or two plus the fact that the people around you do not age at all.

i think that if you want to be a begger or a villager than you can and you house would have a rack for weapons and all that other stuff oh and when your sleeping it shows you sleeping for like 2-4 seconds

i think scars are cool but the should make like a shrine of good or evil but just say donate 100 000 and yu get riddve all ur scars or bring a rly goood sacrifice and capes would be cool to for your armor and the ability to equip 2 swords in stead of a bow and mke ur horns look longer and eviler like maybe make your skin go reaaly dark and glowing and ur hons reach to the back of yur head with little flames in between them that would be sweet and a halo that appears all the time instead of wen yu dont move

The augments for weapons would need some improvements. I mean, doesn't it irritates you to switch weapons just because you can't remove the augment from your weapon and furthermore the augmentations that is needed is found in a weaker/stronger weapon?

I just wish that you can remove and insert your choice of augments at will. At least that you don't have the trouble of finding the right weapon with the right augment(s) for any given situation.

There should be more weapons on a game like this there should be staffs javalins, Sythes, war axes, etc etc and more types of metal and styles and i want more potions that help other issues like Scars, Age, A certain skill\skills and a TON of diffrent sorts of quests like go gather some stuff, go talk to this guy to get some info, and jobs be a merchant a pub owner, a BLACKSMITH make your own weapons.

Yeah, firearms might ruin it a little, but it may make it more enjoyable. I hope it will last a very long time. The story I mean, I hope it is as long as most RPG's. Like Final Fantasy. It would be awesome, Fable was way too short. I hope to see more weapons, a MUCH better variety of armour then the first Fable. More things to upgrade with expierience. It would be pretty cool if you aged slower and maybe there is a possibility of having children, or perts. That would be great. I really hope that it will have a more interavtive gameplay with NPC's. So you can choose what to say. Also, a bigger world!

I know its a lot, but it would be a breakthrough gaming expeirience!

I didn't have the patience to read the whole thread so I don't know i this has been suggested yet.

Anyway I'd like to see some special abilities or/and weapons/armor which you get when you follow a certain path. For example: There could be different paths like the path of the dragon(such a cliche

)which you trigger by speaking to a tengu hermit and you start series of quests and tests to become a Ninja. Alternatively you could also choose the path of the sword and become a Samurai. The trick is that you could only choose a one path.

I would like to see the AI in the next Fable to be improved. I've noticed that the regular enemies in Fable tend to not dodge attacks and instead block them. Don't know why its so but if they can dodge or do evasive manuevres, they would be harder to strike down especially when you try to enflame them or use similar surrounding spells on them.

Yes that is and even will the game force u to use diffrent combat strategies to win battle against various Enemy's.. Even combine spells and melee...
The already did that in some sort of way but not nessacary.. the made it for power in the attack not for survival.. now i just beat the game with another character and i actually did not use any magic at all..only melee and it dind became an yharder on it...

I'd like to be able to interact with the main NPC's a little more. The Prostitues, Briar Rose you can't marry and act like you're not even there for the most part when there's not a mission. I'd like to be able to Kill/marry/make an enemy of them kindof like in Star Wars KotoRII. Also it'd be really cool if you could customize your armor with designs and colors like you can with tatoos. When you wear armor your tatoos are pretty much pointless. Maybe a way to gain followers who are willing to work for you for free or can follow you around based on your alignment. It'd be neat to be able to go to a "good" town and form a small army and raid an "evil" town or vise-versa.

Other than that... it'd be REALLy cool if the new game could detect your saved character from Fable1 and retain the items and whatnot from the old game and just continue on...

Other than that... 2 words. Swimming/Jumping

Er...Fable 2 is set 500 years after the events of Fable: The Lost Chapters so having that kind of feature will be way out of the question. Furthermore, I can't imagine the main character of Fable:TLC making an appearance 500 years later in Fable 2.

Both of them are good ideas.

ide like to have the ability to do stealth kills(instead of using the sneak ability just to steal you can use it to kill:mischief: )like slice a villagers neck with a knife and watch his blood spill in satisfaction:mischief:

Aros · Post by **Aros** » Thu Jul 20, 2006 8:06 am

Oh.. didn't know the 500 year thing. Although it would be cool if... ... nah...

TheHero · Post by **TheHero** » Thu Jul 20, 2006 11:17 pm

Instant kill move?

I'm thinking something where if you could manage to get close enough to someone, with the right weapon equipped, you could sneak attack them, and kill them with say, a slit throat, or a stab through the heart. Anyone agree?

Quite late in responding but yes, I agree with you. In fact, the game should have certain types of weapons meant for executing stealth kills like daggers or short-sized swords.

Also to add is some context sensitive moves where if you hang from a tree, you would be able to swing down and knock out/kill the guy below you. If you're close to the enemy, by pressing a key or using the attack button while behind the enemy, the main character should execute some stealth kill instead of fighting the regular style.

I have another idea but this is for the sniper mode when using projectile weapons like bows or guns. Don't you find it like vulnerable that when you use sniper mode, you can't move? Well, I hope that they allow you to strafe left and right even in sniper mode but at slower pace than the normal walking speed so as to give some manoeuvrability when dealing with gun/bow users.

EDIT: Decided to add something.

Just a personal request for the dev team. Ever since I saw this photograph on a "farktogrophy" contest I wanted to put something like this in an rpg. Thus I personally request a snowy area, with a woods, backroad, and small town much like in this picture.

Ahh yes, to add a few things that other have not already.
For your reputation, besides fame and good vs evil the game should also take into account how fat your character is, how much s/he gambles and goes to the brothel (eh, there was one in the Lost Chapters) and how much he drinks. The npcs in the game should then respond to this, calling your character a drunkard if all you do is drink, a slob if s/he is incredibly fat, and a scoundrel if s/he partakes in vice too much. This could be independant of the fame and good/evil status.

Another thing, the 2 best things in Fable were character customization and the art direction. So improving on both is a must!
For character customization, being able to choose between female and male would be nice. Choosing hair and eye color would also be a bonus. Finally, if you want to be strong your character shouldn't have to be a giant, don't tie height into the strength stat. By the end of my play through of "The Lost Chapters" my character towered over everyone at what seemed to be 7 feet tall (about 2.3 meters for you Europeans).
