    fable 1's story will have little to do with this story so you shouldn't be lost... and you technically cannot die i guess when your health or HP is depleted you fall to the ground all dramatic like... then your EXP... or something goes down a little and you get back up really quick with a really dramatic burst of energy and knock a bunch of people back

    this is so important im going to sign it in all capital letters its going to say ADAM WEST
    thats what its gonna say you'll see

    1. No - You will not. Fable 2 is set five hundred years in the future, so no need to worry. There may be some little things you might not get, but not integral.

    2. Death - I don't think it really exists per se, it's more like you get knocked down and you have to sacrifice something so you don't get scars.

    EDIT : Something means, EXP, Gold, Renown, the like.

    1.) You do not need to play Fable 1 to understand Fable II- although I believe there may be surprise appearances and continuations from the first Fable that Fable I players can appreciate.

     

    2.) I'm not as up to date with this one, but apparently you 'spring up in a burst of magical energy' which takes away some of your experience? I'd get confirmation from someone else for that.

    #1.  Peter M has said that Fable 2 should appeal to casual gamers as well as hardcore gamers, so I'm pretty sure you won't have any problems with the gameplay.  Fable 2 is not really a continuation of the story of Fable 1, so you really wouldn't NEED to play Fable 1 to fully experience Fable2, although it is a great game.

    #2. For the death system, there was talk of when you fall, you get scarred from being struck on the ground.  They cut this system, because people were just restarting their games rather than having permanently scarred characters.  The new system in my opinion is much better.  Now, it's that you lose the experience that you did not soak up before you fell.

    Oh, where's my manners?  Welcome to the forums, GypsyFable.Smily [:)]

    Uh, the scarring upon losing unconsious was taken out some time ago.

    I can see why.  Hero falls down, enemies start stabbing him, Hero says "Hey, cut it out, stop it, I'm gonna get a scar..."

    isnt it all about a choice now, you fall in battle you have to sacrifice either, XP, Gold or get a scar (that does fade a little with age)

    No, no, no, you fall down, you lose xp, you get up and continue the fight.

    I believe that was an earlier concept that was scrapped, I don't think you get a choice, it's just a loss of exp.

    Either way, we'll find out in a little over two weeks, but damn, two weeks has never felt so long.  If only I had remained oblivious to the existance of Fable 2 until it was one day from release.
