my wishlist and ideas

Re: Fable 2 Ideas/Wishlist

Just off the top of my head, here is a small list of some of the things I would like to (and not like to) see in Fable 2. Let me know if you agree/disagree, why, what are your ideas, etc. Thanks.

Things I would LIKE to see in Fable 2

1. Animals! You should be able to choose your companion (if any) and customize it like your character (clothings and what-have-yous) and it'd be cool to own things like a horse for faster travel or some sheep/chickens for some extra cash, and depending on your alignment they would change...I hope you get the idea.

2. Better voices (and more of them)! The same couple of voices that they used in Fable and the funky accents that made them almost impossible to understand at times really took away from the game for me...and they always sounded like they were shouting or something.

3. When they say you can own a castle, I'd like to see a real castle. Not that one hallway one room thing Lady Grey had going on. On that note, it'd be cool if you could actually choose types of furniture in your house and arrange it where you like. Or for those who'd rather not bother, there would be an automatic feature.

4. More variety in NPCs and their personalities, AI, and clothing. And voices. Please.

5. I want to feel like I'm really affecting the world as I move about it. I noticed in the first one that for all you can do, the plot is still very linear and the ending is basically either happy or not. I'd like to see the plot branching around more and have multiple endings, and above all else the game to change as I go. For example, in Fable: The Lost Chapters when I ended up getting rid of Lady Grey to become mayor of Bowerstone...nothing changed, at all. Except she wasn't there. No discounts, not even a "good afternoon mayor" from an NPC.

6. More towns with completely unique people, flairs, items, and even cultures. On that note, they should have evil towns and good towns. It got annoying getting screamed at most everywhere I went in the first one, just because I had horns and a huge bloody sword...

7. Interesting diseases/conditions/whatever that your character can become afflicted with. How cool would it be to transform into a balverine?

8. Weather! Every region had it's own thing going on all the time and it'd be nice to see some change. And it would be really neat if somewhere north you could see an aurora borealis.

9. A larger variety of side quests (and now jobs) your character can do to take some time off and make some extra money. Some cool jobs would be architecht, painter, brothel owner, torture chamber master, florist...etc

More to come later!


Things I DON'T want

1. Degradeable weapons and armor. I'm sorry...but this is just tedious and pointless to me, not to mention a waste of money. I like having to not worry about how many points my sword has left before snapping...

2. Overly realistic stats like fatigue/hunger/sleep/over encumberment. Trust me, I'm all for realism, but sometimes it's just overbearing and you spend too much of the game just keeping your character up and running.

3. To go bald because I'm evil. If I'm evil, I want to look good doing it. And having hair would be nice.

4. To work as hard as I did in Fable just to get a sword I can't use and can't intimidate people with.

More to come later!

I did this so Nomina-Domini wouldn't have too....

Re: Fable 2 Ideas/Wishlist

I just heard about this site tonight and didn't feel like reading all 36 pages of posts, so i some of these might be on someone else's list but some of the things i'd like to see in fable 2 are:

1. Horses for quicker travel. I'd rather take longer on a horse than a few seconds through a cullis gate just because horses would be more fun. you should be able to ride in and trample the hell out of people and get a lance to go with it.

2. more guards when you get in trouble. I hated only getting 3 guards at a time when i'd commit a crime. i'd like to see more like 15 guards after me at a time or even more with a system as powerful as 360 is.

3. the ability to build your own home, then shop, then more to add on and rent out to NPCs so you can eventually create your own growing city with full customizable options on your home.

4. the need to releive yourself of wastes. not completely necessary, but i think it'd be funny to see your character grab himself in pain because he needs to ****.

5. a complete costom character that you build from scratch, where you decide the race, eventual height he will reach at a full grown age, hair and eye color, what type of eyebrows he'll have, nose type, lips, everything.

6. a create your own hero weapon where you choose if your hero's special weapon will be heavy or light, a large choice of premade designs, and make it upgradable.

7. make the game more like The ElderScrolls by making it possible to take anything you want. if go into a clotheset you should be able to take everything. if you kill someone, you should be able to take his clothes/weapon or whatever he had on him.

8. have the seasons change. i want there to be a posibility of snow or rain anywhere.

9. it would be nice if the game had a more open-ended storyline, so you could join forces with the antagonist instead of always fighting him.

10. i want the NPCs to have realistic damages, so their limbs fly off when you slash them with a heavy sword. and there should be easier decapitations.

11. the character's hair should grow after a while, and he should go bald at old age when he's been evil. but i didn't like how the hero in fable 1 would go balled at age 26 if he was evil, that shouldn't be till he's old and grey. i did like the horns though.

12. it should be easier to have sex in the sequel. you shouldn't have to be married or need to go to a bordello. and the bordello should be in an easier to reach spot or have a cullis gate attatched to it.

13. some quests should be repeatable, like getting rid of bandits. and some quests should be like raiding a village.

14. you should be able to start your own clan of guards or bandits, and when you go into the wilderness the bandits shouldn't attack you if you're evil.

15. in the begining of the game you should choose between a hero's guild and a bandit's guild to be trained by. and depending on which one you choose you fighting style should be different.

If i have any more ideas i'll post them later.

I have a question for you.... Have you seen the confirmed facts about Fable 2 yet because they'd answer a lot of what you want to know.

Re: Fable 2 Ideas/Wishlist

I read something about making fable like elderscrolls. here we go. Lol Jk. Nice ideas

Only in the aspect of being able to steal insane amount of things and clothes thats all and thats a fair enough point

 

[Jester.]

Re: Fable 2 Ideas/Wishlist

Well stealing not taking half an hour on a pair of gloves would be kinda sweet

Re: Fable 2 Ideas/Wishlist

one more idea for what i really want in the next fable is the arena. the arena was my favorite mission in the first fable, but you could only play through it once! i want there to be an arena that you can play through multiple times.

Oh, thats a good idea. But that arena should look like Colosseum.. big and... very big. That would be great. And maybe battling other heros too.

Re: Fable 2 Ideas/Wishlist

Maybe team or solo battles like you and two other heros vs three villans or bandits? or solo like you vs 3 heros.
Oh now that I think of it a free for all and tornament(spelling) mode would be cool

Re: Fable 2 Ideas/Wishlist

Wow! That's a pretty fricking amazing list you have there. It's like everything I'm looking forward to in Fable 2 summarized in a not-so short little package. I'm quite impressed. By the way, about the idea you had with the custom city/house thing, I have a post going called 'Custom City' on this topic. Look at it sometime if you want (sorry- I have no idea how to make seperate threads- go figure). Anyway, I like almost all of the ideas.

Fable 2- Customisibial Spells/Weapons/Armour

Whatsup, this is my first post on this forum, I was just thinking it wouid be a great idea to have customizble weapons, beond the point of Augumentations.
EX: Rename Tear of Avo, to preferred choice, Customizble colours, and possibly making a weapon from scratch if I was to make a custom weapon from scratch in fable 2, I wouid make it so I wouid have to collect ores, dimaonds, gem's, and other weapon crafting matireal.'' Once done compiling the gem's, ores, or dimaonds together, It woudint just generate a random weapon or a random weapon enchantment(Augementation), it wouid give you a list of 40 or more possiblities to chose from. Also, If I had a chance to add any futher Augementations I wouid add crusader(Greyish glow all the time), lifestealing(Pink glow all the time), Firey weapon(+70 weapon damage when attached+ firey glow), +100 mana or health to chest pice, helmet, or leggings. Also I wouid love it if it had augmentaiton to armour,(as i menchend before). Also for the spell's, I wouid also like if they wouid have a spell making command, this wouid allow the person playing the game to start from scratch with gem's, dimaonds, and ores also. Or, you couid just pay somewhat gold to add a custom design to your weapon or armor. Also my idea with spells is, you can also pay to add a certaint effect when used, this wouid not be cheap.

Re: Fable 2 Ideas/Wishlist

I want to see non reloading quests if you fail a quest there it should change the story.

 

[Jester.]

Re: Fable 2 Ideas/Wishlist

Thated be gay though specialy if you have no fore warnning on a quest..say your to go to an old ladys house...knowing since its only an old lady you assume itll be an easy straight forwar quest maybe dealing with a few <insert lowlevel creature here> little do you know you get ambused by <high level creatures here> and get owned and die thus failing the quest and not being allowe dto re do it? THATS GAY
maybe if you had a couple of chances then yeah ok, or even atleast the option to decide if u want quest reloading on/off but thats just sounds gay to me.

Re: Fable 2 Ideas/Wishlist

I like the idea of some quests being non-reloadable; it gives the game a little more depth and real consequences to your actions. I don't think they ought to be core quests though unless if you fail you have to complete something else to get past that stage in the game...
