So it seems we don't create our own hero? Which, I get that it would limit facial animations and dialogue, but becoming your own hero was such a huge part of Fable.
Anyway, it looks stunning, graphics-wise. I'm looking forward to it for sure.
Thats not how i took it. I think that hero he was referring to was actually the main villain of the series. The way he said "made all the wrong choices" was what clued me in.
I assumed that he was referencing the morality mechanic that's been a staple of the game from the beginning. Be good, and you're revered. Be evil, and people will fear you. Also, your looks change to match, IIRC. "Really sticks with you."
Thats true, I guess its probably intentionally ambiguous lol. I do hope we have some control over our appearance.
100% this.
Seems like they may be playing some kind of game with the language in the trailer, I'm not sure the "her" is the player character.
That was pretty clear. The apparent player character was a misdirect. The figure that comes in at the end seems to be the "her" referred to, and potentially the main antagonist of the game. I'm sure, just like in all other iterations, you'll have a custom built player character of any sex/gender.
Curious if “Her” will be Theresa. It’s probably someone new but would be interesting if she made a cameo.
I think it might be that one woman in the trailer who says "I'm a Hero, why not do what I want?"
Definitely gave me selfish, villain-y vibes.
Although it could be she's like the Reaver of the new Fable.
Wait, fable has a feature to create our hero? I thought the hero was predetermined. Forgive my ignorance since I only ever played The Lost Chapter. I hope MS will give fable the Halo treatment so I could play the other series too.
In Fable 2 & 3 you could select the gender of your character, but that was it. Their appearance was then shaped by your karma etc. like in the first game.
The trailers have used a female hero as the stand in, which, for some reason, people have taken to mean we don't get to choose the gender or anything.
Ah, I thought it was like Dragon Age: Origins or even Skyrim. Because yeah, that is the Fable that I remembered. The appearance is affected by our action but we cannot create a hero to our liking.
