Gradius1:

Bowerstone is actually split into 4 regions, each of these bigger than the entirety of the city in Fable 1 (South, North, Lady grey's Castle and Quay).

And then there are the many places you can explore under the city (no not the Guild before you get all speculative).

I'm not sure if this is entirely worthy of posting, but this is a nice bit of juicy info relating to the game world.

"Non Timetis Messor..."

buzzreaper:

what i dont get there are a few characters from fable 1 are they must be 500+ years old lol

May be Sythe is still alve. Also you may see some characters as ghosts maybe?

perhaps whilst exploring the ruins of the guild and reading through the archives, you get flashbacks of the events that occured in F1. (probs wrong, i think PM mentioned something about only 1 cinematic, please correct me if i am wrong)

Has that been added ?

They're drama, the drama and things like the dog and the family, and the fact is that you change physically and visibly, the world changes physically and visibly, the story changes. You know, the capital city, depending on how you play the game, can be more of a slum or can be more majestic. So, everything changes and that's very, very dramatic, so that's a really, really big feature.

That's more or less mentioned in the thread.  The slums, the physical changes, and the fact that the the world is dynamic are all mentioned. 

I understand what you say, but IMO it is quite different, and is not implied by the things mentioned above

It is not just the city slums, but that when you are , the whole city represents that, and changes accordingly, which is totally different

Anyway, i just wanted to see if this is confirmed TBH

All in all, you do have included that the hero changes depending on alignment, but you have not included that the world changes visually to represent that and the story changes

And that is indeed big, if true that is

Well, Peter actually says the following:

You know, the capital city, depending on how you play the game, can be more of a slum or can be more majestic. So, everything changes and that's very, very dramatic, so that's a really, really big feature.

He never actually says it's based on alignment, but more than likely the choices you make in relation to that specific city.  I'll see about adding it in on my next update though.

I see your point, you are probably right I was a bit carried away by the whole thing, still now i gets even more exiting

 

How do you affect the city and becomes liek that ?

Yo, Im not sure if its specific enough but the X06 "Future Of Storytelling" panel with Petey M., Peter Jackson and Greg Zeschuk raises a few points about Downloadable Content. It might be handy in informing people that there is more to DLC than new armour and fetch quests.

It says in the list that 'Hobbes make a return' but should that really there? I mean i can see why with the images and that lot but bandits make a return too and many other enemies will make a return. Just curious.

Even a stray has pride.

one thing i would like clarified, if you can leave your family for months at a time like peter did in the demo but you too have to bring them food them how would they eat for those months?

Lose something precious after about 6 hours playing? What could it be? Perhaps the dog  o.O

If that happened, you would be screwed. No more knowing of where you are going.

 

Nah it wont be the dog, if that dies it'll be near the end.

 

if it ends up dying it might have a puppy first so even after you know the area you might still have a companion

 

you can have unprotected sex so why not let the dog have some fun to, eh?

Are you trying to say dogs can have protected sex?

We've got 5 years left to crying.

Did a small update guys.

Added in two bulleted items about Bowerstone under "The World" heading talking about the size of the city itself and the different regions.  Everything else mentioned I wasn't able to include either because the news was too old or because they aren't 100%.  As always, while this is a helpful thread, a constant concern is to not make this thread appear accurate beyond that of a tentative list of possibilities.  We certainly don't want somebody to read something here and then go off to another forum and say that the such and such feature is going to be added when, as the disclaimer says, this thread is not 100% accurate.  It's here to give you a general idea of what to expect.  As such, I wasn't able to include everybody's suggestions.

Do keep them coming though.  As seen, I was able to put a few things in with this recent update.

I love this thread. lol ive read it like 10 times already.

Hey i read somewhere that there are 1000 NPCs in the game that all look different, so you wont see clones walking around everywhere.

Is this true? if so it should be on the list somewhere.

Like most "number" statistics (except for a few) these are left out of the thread mainly due to their highly estimated nature.  However, this particular statistic I've not heard.  If you can provide a link to the source I'll definitely look into it.

Here's a link 

It says it near the bottom

Since they can send you a "Welcome!" confirmation e-mail automatically, can't you set it up so they get an automatic link to this thread when they join, too?

Do me a favor. Click this every once in a while.

Not everyone is here for the Fable 2 forum now are they? 

I'm sure new members will see the sticky, but if they fail to, just link them.

Hey Mort,

Someone pointed out in another thread you can leave your dog home, the link below states the following:

When designing scenes in Fable 2, the dog is used extensively as a tool to elicit emotions from the player. Apparently, the story works without the dog also (so you could lock your dog at home), but the experience isn’t as rewarding.

Here are links to two articles confirming this:

You may want to add in that there is a region called Ravenscar.  It can be seen in the 4th video diary, and was also in a magazine.  I don't think I will have to link it as everybody knows where the 4th video diary is.

The game plays out over 50 years it says it herein an interview :http://pfangirl.blogspot.com/2006/11/fable-2-updates.html

I couldn't see it anywhere, but Molyneux said that you could buy furniture for your house. So there is some house customisation too.

"This house has been dressed completely by me. I've bought every piece of furniture here... You can not only buy any house, but dress any house any way you want."

Says this about a third of the way in on the GDC walkthrough part 3 at Gametrailers.com
