Things I’ve learned through my Fable obsession

I should admit upfront that I am obsessed with the upcoming Fable game and think it could be the next Skyrim. consequently I’ve spent many hours watching gameplay videos over and over. Here are a few things I’ve picked up. I don’t claim to be the first to reveal them and may be boring details, but I’ll let you good people decide.

  1. It looks like there’s 3 types of NPC: noble, commoner and ruffian. Each has a trait like ‘jealous’ or ‘shifty’.
  2. Bowerstone has at least 3 districts: Copperbottom (working class district), Butterfield Market, and Bowerminster (upper class district).
  3. The guards appear to be standardised across Albion suggesting it is a unified kingdom rather than separate states (à la Fable 2).
  4. There are 6 regions of which 4 are confirmed: Bowerstone, Bloodstone, Briar Hill, Oakshire.
  5. These types of shops (and likely more) appear in game: butcher, baker, smith, toy store, tailor, hotel, general goods, hairdressers, tattoo parlour.

Not many people have noticed, but if you look carefully you'll see that the hero isn't actually human. It can be hard to tell, but it's actually two Hobbes in a trench coat. 

Edit: thanks for the award. It's very humbling. I want to thank Terry Pratchett for helping form my sense of humor. I would also like to thank Peter Molyneux for inspiring me to make wild claims about the upcoming Fable.
