i heard rumors of online duels

maybe some type of arena

any one else hear about this ?

since we get pistols , i'm hoping for a selection of cowboy hats to go with

I've not seen this confirmed anywhere personally (anyone?) Although I wouldn't be suprised to see it. I'm assuming that a small, enclosed environment where you can pitch two or more players in against each other in an arena fight or some other form of contest(s) would be the easiest way of having online play other than co-op. In short, it makes sense to me. I'm hoping for this and maybe more from the online features although I'm really trying hard not to be greedy...

Actually, er, no. Just gaming would be fine.

"Because so many people played as characters in the first game it's going to be more difficult to be in Fable 2."

This does not make sense to me.  So what this is saying is, because people enjoyed playing as a certain type of character, they are making it harder to play that type of character this time?  Sounds kinda silly to me.

Also, just to add to Gravenstien's point, it was hard to be an hero when every time you killed an enemy points were thrown at you. The only way to stay fully was to go massacre a village or two after each quest you did.

The songmaker said it ain't so bad.
The dreamaker's gonna make you mad.
The spaceman said everybody look down.
It's all in your mind.

Second time i replayed the game i simply went to the Guild, kept killing the guards constantly, got fully in like 20minutes just from that. Guild get's destroyed next quest there ya go no biggy at all.

 

Being was as simple as that, because guards just kept coming in the smaller towns. They also looked ridiculously stupid...

I use to go to the cities and do nothing but kill the gurds it did suck I couldn't kill the people there without hiring someone... damn bowerstone.

I think what they're saying is that being truely actually takes some level of sacrifice, so being shouldn't just be the default route as it was in Fable, where you simply didn't murder villagers and guards, did the quests and made a few nice moral decisions and ended up looking like Jesus. If you want to be seen as being this wonderful and pious again you're going to have to work hard and sacrifice to achieve it...

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?

Here is a link with a little something about it. However, don't read this, if you don't want to know, it's a minor spolier.

O4_Leonhardt:

well, the getting pregnant thing would kinda suck.

what the hell are you supposed to do? fight bandits with a bulging baby belly? and if you die, does it take away 2 ressurection phials for the life of your child? or will it just be a cutscene where you have sex, then 9 months passes in a few seconds and you have a baby?

 

and it would be cool if you could marry your friends hero, and have hero babies.

two legends, one drunken night, one bed. one child prodigy coming up!

 

 

He says in this video that you will be pregnant and fighting, then 9 months later, you get a kid. He also says that he hopes he can keep it in, as some media people may take it and run with it.
http://www.gamesradar.com/video/v-2008022210923493050
I really hope that it stays in though, the anti-video game Nazis are ridiculous, but I can totally see them trying to talk crap about fighting while you're pregnant. Damn FOX news! Sometimes being an American sux, as we all know it is our media who would have a fit about it.
Also, here it talks about if you can hook up with your henchman and have kids. it's toward the top, or you can listen to the audio. http://www.xbox360fanboy.com/2008/02/28/x3f-interviews-peter-molyneux-about-fable-2-bc-xna/

HayteWithinHart:

Whoa great list  But is it true that there is going to be horns if your  and Halo's if your (If so that would suck cause I wanna be  but I hate those damn horns)

I may be misunderstanding, but it appears that he is saying, in this video, that they are scrapping the traditional halos and horns thing. It's about 20 minutes or so in.

Just as a thought, in regards to two heroes having a child...

Firstly, who will the child take after, its mother or father? Or some form of half-way house between the two?

Secondly, where would it live - both parents will be out on adventures, leaving the baby to go straight to the workhouse.

Thirdly, wouldn't every baby created by two heroes look exactly the same, at least at first? All femal heroines will look identical at first (as a child), before they start to make life and appearance-changing choices (the same goes for male heroes). So surely as all heroes are genetically identical all of the children will be born identical. They'll have to be in fact - our children grow to look like us, they can't be born or as they have to be able to morph to look like our character. So if I was , and had an baby in the game, what would happen to the child if I converted to being - it would become a child?

I think there's a few too many problems will the idea of two heroes having a baby for it to end up in the game although I remain to be proven wrong.

Well we don't know what sort of character customization features will be available yet. You might be able to choose a face for your char or such.

Wee bestongé! ^^ mmmm.....

Well from one of the threads below we now know, or have had a very heavy hint from "The Bag" that we won't be seeing any other races than white English - at least for our own character.
