"Apparently, every NPC villager is unique and will react to your wealth, past actions, style, and more. Playground is also promising that the world will react to you in big and small ways. They list one example where a character who uses magic to get massive can be killed or reasoned with, and if you decide to end the giant's life, his massive corpse will litter the world for the rest of the game. It will even, apparently, lower the property value of nearby homes."
"Playground Games says Fable will feature a fully seamless open world, a first for the series. You'll be able explore every corner of Albion at your own pace without loading screens. Well, once you get through the game's opening tutorial, where you start as a kid and have to watch your village be attacked. It is a Fable game, after all. It's just tradition."
"During the Dev Direct, Playground Games confirmed you'll be able to customize your character's face and clothing. And like in past games, you can interact with villagers and NPCs, even marrying them or kicking them out of houses you own. Yes, you can be a fantasy landlord in Fable. The worst villain of all! Don't worry, there are jobs that you can do to earn gold and of course, heroic quests to go on via the Hero's Guild."
Playground Games is developing the next Fable using the same technology behind the Forza Horizon open-world driving games. The game features a fully seamless open-world Albion with no loading screens after the opening tutorial, allowing exploration at the player's pace. Character creation includes face and clothing customization, plus relationship options such as marriage and the ability to own and evict tenants. NPCs are unique and will react to wealth, past actions, and style, while the environment responds to player choices in persistent ways. Jobs and Hero's Guild quests provide economic and heroic progression, and combat is included. The game launches this Fall.
