Fable 2 Development

   

My Quest Begins…

Published Wednesday, August 29, 2007 12:42 PM by Gothnak

Greetings all, I’m the next Lionhead Blogger being added to the LH community website, and maybe the first specifically working on Fable 2. The name’s Mike West and I’m the Lead Scripter (And part time Senior Designer), which means my fabulous team of eleven are the guys who put all the quests (to us, scripts) in the game for all your lucky people to play!  


My day generally consists of arguing with the Dark One, Mr Dene Carter (Creative Director, currently on holiday somewhere) about story, the Secretive American, Mr X (Lead Designer, currently talking loudly in the office somewhere) about gameplay decisions, Grand Vizier, Sir Peter Molyneux (High Overlord, currently plotting world domination) about love, dogs & death (But not all at the same time)  and any other poor soul who is holding up anyone in my team from getting any of the quests implemented.


This means out of the team I’m one of the guys on the team who know most of what Fable 2 is and rather annoyingly means I also am probably the guy who has the tightest gag order on this website!


Still, I shall do my best to introduce you all to the wonderful world of scripting, what we do, how it’s going, and maybe, if I knock Sam out (shouldn’t be very difficult) a little tidbit of Fable 2 information here and there.


Ciao For Now…

(Oh. and don't expect any fancy-blog style action, i'm just working out how this  blooming thing works!)

I reserved a spot near a pub in guildford for you, me and my tape recorder!

Since I'm an Icelander, it should be fairly obvious that we'll play a simple game called "drink as much booze as you can."

Ignore everything else!

I gots a suggestion, why not blog about decisions/problems scripting encountered on the original game? That way we could get an idea of what you do, without revealing anything! And you could possibly mention if any Fable problems persist in F2, or if a new set of issues has arisen?
