What I Personally Hope To See In Fable 2
Well, there are a number of new things, improvements, and same things I want to see in the sequel that was promised to be released later this year.
When they were making Fable, they promised long-term consequences in your actions and decisions. This was, for the most part, only relating to the story. The only thing that lasted long was your appearance, evil making it impossible to get people to talk to you, and good making everyone love you. I want everything I do to anyone or anything effect me directly or indirectly. If you bump the man in the snazzy looking suit, and don't apologize, I want some men to pull me into the alley the next day and attempt to mug me. That feels far more realistic, and what was promised to us in the Fable we are currently playing. When you kill a member of a gang, I expect an assault on my wife, my house torched/robbed, or strange men subtly following me. Or maybe Traders that are their friend will either not barter with me or charge insane prices.
Whatever job an NPC has, I want the ability to have that very same job. EVERY job. Blacksmith, Bard, Innkeeper, Barkeeper, Guard, Prison Warden, Exotic Dancer, Gamemaster... Every single thing. If it can be done, my character should be able to do it. I want it to feel like it's my life in a fantasy world, with the ability to fight and help other people, like that guy from Schindler's List.
I want more crime, organized and bandits alike. From keeping a toll road, to weaving through a complicated network of smugglers, killers and con artists. I want to be evil, I want to be head of the Mafia. I want to be Good, I want to be a Double Agent in the Mafia. I want it to be far more realistic, with the traditional fantasy things in it.
I want there to be more family life in the game. In the first Fable, you got married, received a dowry, occasional gifts from your wife, and sex. That's all that really happened. While they definitely are adding more family things, such as father/motherhood, divorce due to family neglect, and dogs, I hope you can do things like teach your child your trade or train them to be a masterful warrior. I want this game to have better replay value then Black & White even.
There are more things, but I'm sure not many people want to hear more of my expectations from this long-awaited game. Lionhead sure does take a long time to make a game, but god damn it, they make 'em right.
