New Fable 2 details revealed

[Zeus]

OXM UK has revealed some new and exclusive Fable 2 informaton. Some of the new information includes: decisions change apperance, no cut scenes, no HUD and no more bumpkins.


There are plenty of changes and cool new additions, so here's a list of the most important features that Fable 2 has...

• Good and Evil expanded. There are four traits to consider now, with purity/corruption and kindness/cruelty determining your overall character. One example cited is a beautiful girl who is about to be stricken by a curse of terrible scars - do you save her by taking on this curse yourself?
• Decisions change appearance. Those stained by corruption will find their teeth turning crooked and yellow, to give one example.
• No HUD. In an effort to streamline the experience as much as possible, Fable 2 won't have a HUD.
• No cutscenes. Non-interactive cinematics take up less than five minutes of game time.
• No more bumpkins. The voice acting has been kicked up a couple of notches, as Fable 2 moves away from the country bumpkin speak of its predecessor. Stephen Fry is one of the confirmed voice actors.
• Magic spells revealed. Inferno, Time Control, Magic Blades, Raise Dead and Force Push are some of the spells you'll be able to use.

LOL @ bumpkin

Has anyone seen Harold and Kumar: Escape to Gautamano Bay? Watch it and you'll know what I mean.

Nothing we didn't really know but I'm still excited about this game.

This Fable 2 is going to be crappier than the original Fable :(

Do you have anything productive to say in any of the 25 posts you have made so far? Looking at them, the answer is a big fat no.
You don't back up your opinions with anything relative and you use the word "crap" in some kind of form in half of those post.
Instead of posting one line about how everything is crap, why don't you actually explain yourself. And it confuses me how you just downplay EVERYTHING.

If you were a real gamer, you would learn to appreciate what was given to you (especially looking back on what gaming used to be). That's not to say some criticism isn't needed, but surely not everything is "crap" to you.

Here's hoping they aren't trying to push a tad too far and wind up with serious framerate issues... again.

Some people are crap, utter crappyness, and should have restrictions on being able to use a computer (such as never being able to type anything on one directly themselves.) In fact, someone should have had the foresight to never show them how to turn one on let alone teach them any language. Only on the internet does one such as they find they are never excluded from communities :( {edit:/ oops, I was being impressionable when I read HyperGeek's posts, looks like it came out here.}
