Lionhead New "Revolution" Web Page

Lionhead changed it's main website today It now starts with a flash image of Che Guevara with the quote
Quote:
"At the risk of seeming ridiculous, let me say that the true revolutionary is guided by a great feeling of love.


Choosing thumbs up or thumbs down leads you to the following two pages
http://www.lionhead.com/Followers.aspx
http://www.lionhead.com/Subjects.aspx

How about we read way more into the words Followers and Subjects

Using my overactive imagination I'm picturing a new DLC "Revolution" where the people of Albion attempt to overthrow you, the "King"

That's really stupid in my opinion, they took a great figure in history who did all of these great things to free people etc and they made him the poster boy for a gaming company?

It is a bit cheesy

There is also a big 6 in the background which some have suggested is the number of days until gamescom GDC Europe is Monday though so who knows. It will be interesting to see if the number changes tomorrow.

Uh, just so you'd know, no one said that this was related to Fable. It might be an entirely new game, or even just a prank. You never know.

Why would they make a game about Che. Its just a publicity act.

Interesting. I would probably hope for DLC (hmm, maybe your kid decides to overthow your ass?), but I'm suspicious that it's nothing Fable-y.

Sorry, but I have a fairly low opinion of A) Communism and B) People who run the appeals process and firing squads for "revolutionary tribunals."

Robspierre was big on revolutionary justice, too, and I also have a low opinion of him. Does the term "guillotine" bring anything to mind? Howsabout "Reign of Terror?"

Does this perhaps tell us something about the tenor of a revolution if it WERE Fable DLC?

Unfortunately, it doesn't really tell us anything except that they're counting down to something that they probably think is revolutionary. And bloody, presumably.

It has its problems as does everything else.

They are trying to overhype the next dlc and promising us greatness that should have been in the last dlc, that is the secret meaning beneath these quotes lol

Hm, it just might be a Fable II DLC, in that case. The time period is pretty much spot on in that regard. It could also be something larger than a DLC; maybe an expansion? You know, Fable II's version of TLC?

We'll know more when they fill us in, I guess.

Nah, I doubt that the selection of Robspierre for the second quote is really a hint at anything like that. After all, the first quote was from Guevara, and he lived in the 20th century.

Re: Lionhead New "Revolution" Web Page

This is really weird but I think I know what Lionhead are up to!
They are making decisions based on what we choose! Like today they have a picture of Abraham Lincoln saying, 'Do not be deceived. Revolutions do not go backwards'. So if you choose thumbs up they may choose to make the game set in a later date than fable 2 was in and choose thumbs down will have the opposite effect.
And I am sure you all noticed a number beside each famous firgure, anyone thought about a countdown? It is probably counting down to the announcement or game play video of either DLC or Fable 3.

But also, notice both of them talk about revolutions as well as that outfit Murgo gave you was of the American Revolution, I think(Don't blame if that's wrong, I'm British). So probably has something to do with that.

!!!!!!!!SPOILER!!!!!!!!





And at the end of See the Future the vision was of a king and Theresa mentioned you're unborn baby, well, maybe in Fable 3 or new DLC you will play that baby or become king or maybe be you will have the choice to be a ruler like Abraham or Revolutionist like Che Guevara in DLC or Fable 3!
Or it's a publicity stunt to get us thinking!




!!!!!!Spoiler Over!!!!!!

So in conclusion it will either be them trying to make decisions off the choices we choose or they will give us the choice to become a revolutionist or leader and the big number beside them is a countdown!

Only time will tell....
