Fable 3: Possible Time Setting
First off I want to state that I was too lazy to browse the whole list to see if there are any other similar posts.
Here's my theory, they've progressed 500 years into the future (or was it 200?) from Fable 1, which turns out to be a slightly pre-Renaissance setting. My reasoning being that churches are non-existant (which could also be pre-Baroque I suppose.) and of course there are no signs of further technological advancement. Okay, there is the DLC submarine but that doesn't count!
So, there are four possibilities in time setting that they could use: the first and supposedly most likely being the Industrial Age(or whatever ya like to call it) which includes steam technology, gas lighting, electricity, still no armor and some slight advances in weaponry and so forth. Care for a train ride? This assumes they follow the trend of going forward in time.
The second possibility is that they could have a relapse, and go back into the medieval setting of Fable 1 which some folks might like, I'm sure there's some content that has yet to be pieced together and/or resolved in there somewhere. Take note that I didn't play Fable 1 so I don't have much in the way of ideas going here.
The third possibility is that the time setting could virtually stay the same(give or take a decade or two) and the character could possibly be your child from Fable 2...I know you had unprotected fun time in the many beds available! :wub: And perhaps have a Mom & Dad and of course Aunt Rose(if she ain't in a "happier place" with Scythe or some other skinny hooded person) to visit/do things for etc. And even a possible rebirth of Oakvale? Anywho that doesn't pertain to the time setting. ^_^
The fourth possibility and perhaps the most interesting one that I thought of (which may have more substance in another thread) is the fact that Theresa has control of the Spire....and basically told you that it's "hers" and shortly after to "begone". What does Theresa want with the Spire...possibly the same exact thing as Lucien had in mind? Assuming that she knows something you don't, that the Spire is actually still active after your wish. I don't think that should have an impact on the Storyline unless you have some sort of choice to pick at the beginning of Fable 3 concerning your choices in the previous title (that might cause problems if someone picks it up and hasn't played Fable 2.)
That begs the question, what would be important to Theresa, seeing as she has the power to alter everything in Albion for better or worse. Apparently she gets killed by her brother in the first Fable or so I hear, maybe she wants to bring him back and/or go back in time to have her revenge. She's definitely not a Saintly type, and maybe she played a roll in the old Guildleader's death.(again maybe something I missed in the storyline here)
That being said, the fourth option is most interesting because it all depends on Theresa and what she will do with the Spire while your off living your life in Albion.
Off the topic, there are other factors to consider in how things will play out, does Hammer find a husband, does Garth marry/remarry (I don't remember if he said anything about a wife?) and do they have kids which would continue the Hero bloodline in addition to your own ventures....I know heroes are sposed to live a long time but that also depends on what the time setting is and even if the next Hero is part of the Fable 2 characters lineage.
Anywho those are my thoughts, feel free to put in your two cents...so much to think about!
