"New" Concept Art from Fable 3's Bowerstone

Re: "New" Concept Art from Fable 3's Bowerstone

An industrial era defeats the purpose of a game called "Fable", don't you think?

A fable is a story with a moral, which in this case is for every choice, a consequence. So as long as they keep the morality system it dosen't defeat the purpose of fable.

But...

My 60-or-so STDs begs to differ.

Dear god...
FABLE 3 WILL BE SET IN VENICE?!
I'm joking
Sweet find
this definetly disproves an authors theory on how fable 3 will have "lightsabers and lazor guns"

its so sad to see bowerstone move away from the place Sparrow and Rose lived, perhaps 70 years earlier.

I agree =[ I think i'm gunna return to playing TLC and ONLY TLC. There is just something much better about the original than the others that are coming out.

+rep Great find! Bet it isn't finished. Just a rough draft. Really cool though. Maybe the town changes with the choices we make?

Well, if you really think about it, even in TLC cities were pretty rooted in realism, much like they are now. The mystery and wonder of the Fable universe is found mainly in the game's wilderness. Admittedly, Fable II kinda bombed in that area, but the new concept art for Fable III's overworld leads me to believe that they might be injecting that whimsical nature back into the wilderness. God, I hope they do, too.

Very interesting, just started checking back in with Fable, and this is a good thing to start with... I suppose. Although, I must agree, it does look depressing.
But then with the rise of technology comes the loss of a kind of innocence you can never get back. That was one of the things that drew me to Fable in the first place and one of the main reasons I'm drawn to RPG's in general. I enjoy being able to step back through time to a place where people were dependent on themselves for survival, rather than machines.
(off topic?...... maybe a little, I digress..... ^^)

Anywho, I do like it, and I did expect Fable III to go this way, so.... I guess it will be an adventure, playing in an era I've left nearly unexplored.

Re: "New" Concept Art from Fable 3's Bowerstone

That is the most depressing and discouraging concept art I've ever seen!!! Fable III concept art is supposed to excite me not enrage me!!! I really hope the magic of fable doesn't change. If it did I would lose faith in all video gaming. I barely even play them now!!! I mean look at my puny gamerscore!!! Still, nonetheless I will play it, and if I don't like then I say "D@mn Loinhead, burn them all!!! [/endrant]

Seriously though I hope this game isn't as depressing as this picture.

The magic of fable won't change. This might mean that as you are king you can improve the lifestyle of your subjects, so in the beggining its like the picture but the choices you make could make it worse, leave it as it is or improve it.

Re: "New" Concept Art from Fable 3's Bowerstone

I actually really liked that art. Sure, it's depressing, but it is in the middle of a revolution.... Just picture that scenery changing to your own morals. It would make overhauling the entire town alot more accomplishing, IMO.

God I hope so, I don't want to live in that crap, even in a video game!

Re: "New" Concept Art from Fable 3's Bowerstone

yah that is sad. Who knows what kind of storyline is set up. Its not really fair to the ppl who made sparrow a good charecter dont u think?
there has to be a catch

Re: "New" Concept Art from Fable 3's Bowerstone

^Thats concept art, so it might not be in the game. Also the game reads your fable 2 save so that might be for people who made sparrow an evil hero.

Pretty sweet find ! I know it's only concept art but it does look slightly promising

Re: "New" Concept Art from Fable 3's Bowerstone

Looks like disease will play a part in this one. About time, don't you think?

Will the black plague hit? hehe

but it would be cool to see some of the real worlds troubles hit the fable world.

Good point, choices would probably change it like old Bowerstone in Fable 2. ^_^
