behold:

Look's very, well... depressing.
It was revealed a few months ago but no one noticed it I suppose.
Post opinions and such.

The signs say:
????? & Sons
Cormak & Co

I've definetly seen this before, either in a magazine or in one of the videos talking about the game.

gd 1 mate, Yeh looks very different

Lionhead have tonight released some new artwork for the upcoming Fable III, showing that, as promised, Albion is moving on from a stylised renaissance and is — Dickens novels in hand — marching right into a stylised industrial revolution.

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

Agreed it does look depressing. But thus begins the industrial revolution

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

Very London circa 1850. Charles Dickensish.

I kind of like the idea. Quite depressing, but hopefully it's showing that the story might be deeper. I liked the concept of Bowerstone Old Town, when I thought it would be poorer (Alas, it becomes too close to the Market when I play as a good character), because it added depth.
It shows a bit of smog. I want smog and weather! >.<
It's concept art like this one and the Bower Lake (I'm sure we've all seen it) that makes me really look forward to Fable 3.

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

Re: &quot;New&quot; Concept Art from Fable 3's Bowerstone

Now that I think about it, this reminds me a lot of the setting of Sweeny Todd, what with the smog and all.

That makes a good idea for a quest. Your people are ill with a disease and you go on a quest to find a cure or something.

Wow, I would love something like that! Too bad it wasn't in F2, your family gets sick and you have to go milk a balverine or something...That would be great.

Having a entire town sick, maybe you would have to buy some supplies from other towns and medicine, or go hunt for some on your own.

How would you milk a balverine? And how would you get close to it?

Anyway, I have thought of something. Lets say if you were to fight some balverines and then one bit you, then you get the disease they carry and you can either choose to find a cure or become a balverine with the ability to transfrom like Lucy(or something) could in F2. Like Oblivions vampire thing but better.

Milking a Balverine sounds traumatising

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