Timeline Sucks

Fable Is The Best Game Ever And I Love How U Age Realisticly But It Doesn't Fit The Storyline Once U Fight The Human Jack Your Really Old Yet Your "older" Sister Is Younger Than U And Ur Old Enough To Be Your Mothers Husband... All Im Saying Is That They Should Slow Down Your Aging To Match The Story Line:d Any Comments?

Yeah. They did a very bad job with the process of growing old, or rather the lack of other people growing old.

Neither the world or the other beings in it age with your character.

I think that was a huge let-down in Fable, personally.

i don't like how they did the game days passed and how you aged. I guess I agree, they just did horrible aging all together. Except for your hero.

Tsuyu · 11-03-2006, 10:27 PM

The more I think about it, I get the feeling they spent alot of time on developing features for the hero character and less on the world and beings around him...far too less.

For example, where are Twinblade's horns and red eyes? He is one badass evil guy yet unlike your hero he doesn't have any of the tell-tale signs of evil...

It would be alot more interesting if, for example, Whisper grew good or evil depending on your actions. For example you choose to take either to defend or to attack Orchard Farm - and Whisper ends up taking the other one. If your actions led to her doing the good quests she'd grew good and alot less bitchy towards your character...and the opposite if she ends up doing all the bad stuff!

the aging is based on you "leveling up" right? well they shouldve just simply based it on the story line instead.. you grow old as you complete storyline quests (but not old enough to be your mothers husband

) though the characters around you should be aging too.
