Children Re-vamp
Lets not pretend, the family system was a bit of a let down to most of us (At least people I have talked to about Fable 2. I was hoping for more.. This infact.
Growth
Children will grow into late teens and then adults. Taking traits of your hero, these traits (Like now) will effect how your child looks and acts.
Hero Traits
Good or Evil
Corrupt or Pure
Rich or Poor (Based on Family Allowance. Effects their outfit)
Area they grew up in. (For example, friendly ol' Oakdale, or nasty ol' Bloodstone)
Most used weapon (If you use Will, sword or axes, crossbows etc.)
Child
Runs about, comments on things. Starts getting hero triats.. Like being a bully, being nice, etc etc.
Teen
Will leave home, and possibly town (With your family quest thing telling you where they are at all times). This leading to fun times when one child randomly meets another from your 'other' family on the road or in their home town. Fun times had by all. Perhaps if one your children is evil, they kill the other!
Starts training with whatever preferred weapon or spell. When you meet them they will comment about how they killed some bandits or destroyed some persons home etc etc. Can be seen in the outside of whatever town they live in killing the mobs there. I'd love to run into my Fable 2 daughter slaying bandits in Bower Lake.
Adult
Same as Teen, but no longer grows (Staying around 30 years old or something), and can now follow you around on adventures, like an npc henchmen.
Problems..
This sounds all very cool, but there are some problems. Firstly if you have sex with someone in -every- town and have a lot of families.. Things will get messy, perhaps limiting the follow command to one child at a time would be good. As for so many families running into one another, thats all part of the fun of being a hero who can't keep it in their pants, but I can see it being annoying at the same time..
