Return of Jack?

Post by -JackofBlades- »

does anyone have any news about the mask,perhaps taking on a new host and
reempowering Jack of Blades? I think that would be sweet.

Hello. Welcome to the forums, JackofBlades. :)

As far as I know, Lionhead made no mention of about a Jack of Blades mask making an appearance in the game. Also, it's too early in development so you won't expect to hear much from them either.

I've always liked the idea behind Jack of Blades. He was an interesting character, and i'd like to see him in the sequel.

Does Fable 2 have an official web site or do they just use Lionhead's web site?
It's not who you are underneath, but what you do that defines you.

Yes, there is an official Fable 2 site but it's just a teaser website ([url="http://www.fable2.com/"]link[/url]). The only thing shown in that site is the Fable 2 trailer shown back in E3 2006. :)

i got a great idea, since you could take the mask yourself in fable:the lost chapters, why not make your hero from fable 1 one of the bosses in fable 2? that would be :cool:

How is Lionhead going to explain this if one of the bosses in Fable 2 is the main character of the previous game? It's been 500 years after the events of Fable: The Lost Chapters and he would have been long gone by then (unless he was turned into a zombie or something).

Wasn't Jack from the Old Kingdom?? If the hero and Jack merged maybe that same power kept the hero alive??

I don't remember Jack's mask being able to grant immortality to an individual. All it does is grant the user power. I would've understand if the mask is still around 500 years later but not whoever is wearing the mask 500 years ago and still around at Fable 2's time period.

I actually picked up fable(for the umpteenth time, so addictive) yesterday and set out to be evilest bastard that ever lived but I did learn that
Spoiler
spoiler:if your put the mask on Jack completely takes control of you
and it also says in the game that he spent centuries looking for the sword. And 1 more theory: remember how old scythe was? If you talk to the oracle it says he was around even when the guildmaster was called "Weaver"

i would like to see jack again but id like to see him on the good side something like the hero who put the mask trades jacks power for the immortality of the mask and now jacks some old geezer who hangs around the arena while the hero is the mask so like they traded spots

My thoughts exactly. One problem is that you either have Jack's mask or destroyed it. And it is rumoured that the mask is the true source of power for the many Jacks that have worn it over the centuries. So...

.......it is a confusing quastion but i think it should depend on wat the player choose to do in the first game...like if you played the first one on the 360 it could go on wat u choose to do.....or u could choose at the start wat to do....i dont know but it is defenityly worth thinking about and discussing. :confused:

But that would be too confusing and tough for the devs to pull of convincingly. Most games which have seperate endings such as this usually have a sequel which presumes the player made the good choice.
