Serious about Combat in Fable 2

Published Friday, August 17, 2007 6:49 AM by Sam

Does anyone doubt that Lionhead Studios is not serious about combat?

Judging from some of the trolls who replied in this topic, it surely seems like it. Wink [;)]

The following movie shows that the Fable 2 Team are very serious about combat. And I mean very serious.

Don't try this at home.

Neil Wakefield (our Stuntman Extraordinaire) posts in this blog.

PS: There is no fight instructor.

"Nah... didn't hurt a bit" Right?

On a more serious note, it's great that you guys have actual experience on the subject, shows dedication and more importantly, it'll probably leak into the game as well.

Nice moves too. Shows what kind of things you're going after. Very neat.

I thought there has been only one fable?
The one comment from that site,"Most Fable games are ***."

If there is more than one well what i am about to type is going to make me look like a fool...

*The things people do to get fighting in our games, I commend the guys taking the hits for us like that.I had no idea people were actually hurting themselves for my pleasure of getting enjoyment out of a game. Thanks for sharing sam Smile [:)]

Wow some crazy LH bashing in that forum going on. I think a lot of them took the whole thing out of context.
Anyway, funny video. I do hope Neil was alright.

I saw that movie a few months ago. I think Dero was the one who linked me to it, although it might have been fel or some random forumgoer. Stick out tongue [:P]

Still awesome though. Long live Neil Wakefield! Stick out tongue [:P]

"The dude has to be all marketing-he obviously has no clue what the hell his games are supposed to do. I'd hate to be a grunt in his company-one interview with him after a diet coke and a Red Bull and your feature list just went up by 30%."

Lol.

I'm really sick of all the trolls, with their "I can't do any thing at all, so this is ***" attitudes.

Oh, and my comment goes for Molyneux too. Even if he is right, he's still spitting in the face of every other RPG developer.

Can't wait. Hitting with blades this time around will look better than ever. Not like a blunt club that hits the foe when your a foot away, but real time.

I was very disapointed in just how easy the combat system looked, i look almost hard to die if u just hold down the button the let go after u block an attack. i wish block was a seperate button and that u could direct ur attack with the analog stick.

plz take this into consideration
