Consequence for losing a battle is going to be changed

Browsing around the Lionhead forums I found this little piece of info posted by Sam

Yes, at GDC 08, Peter Molyneux indicated in interviews that the design for death had changed. The new design is as yet unknown and I'm not going to explain it to you right here and now!

Of course Fable 2 is still a game about choice and consequence, but the consequence to you loosing a battle has changed.

Wait-- it's not the fall-down-and-get-beaten-gaining-scars-or-losing-gold/experience/renown thing anymore?

Truth is we don't know what they changed just that they are changing it. It sounds like they are still firming up the idea. It could be as little as how much you have to pay in each area (doubtful) to dropping the thing all together (also doubtful). I'm guessing that they want to make sure that there is a consequence but it's still fun. That's a hard balance to make work.

Yeah... I like the idea, though, so I hope they don't drop it.

I didnt like the idea of being able to PAY for getting away... I mean, you should get scarred and maybe loose some respect.

That would make me happy.

Sam, also, said that we gave him an idea for Video Diary 6, so hopefully he will include the video he promised of the new death system.

maybe it will be like gears...if u die or are injured to much, u fall to ur knees. and u need to like spam A to stop loosing blood and u eventually heal or something...just a thought

Agreed. They're listening to the mainstream public too much to believe they need to change it.

Or it might just be their decision (which is most likely), and if LH wants to change something, they have the right to do so. I just hope death is similar, if not just as innovative, as the first idea.
