The int score doesn't give you different speech/technology options? Am I forgetting something about that game?

EDIT:
Wouldn't actually know. Thought tech was for wuss-faces.

Yeah, I never did Tech either.

The int score DOES give you different speech options; a very low score such as Captain Dumbshit's makes the game hilarious but significant portions of it unplayable (unless you quaff some of those potions that temporarily raise your score). Pretty much if you're a half-ogre who is not a complete moron, everyone acts very surprised.

You can also be a high int and have the dumb options if you are an idiot savant character.

That's why I asked, you see.
I think Savant had a flat-rate int decrease though, so if you added something like an extra 6 points to int, you'd chatter at (almost) the level of your real genius.

Norondor · « **Reply #44 on:** October 24, 2008, 12:28:44 AM »

nah, it always sticks you with the dumb options, even up to 20+ int.

It is difficult to customize my appearance the way I want to in Fable 2 because: using too much magic makes ugly blue lines appear all over my face and I can't remove them. Apparently. Even unlearning that one third-level spell didn't take them away.

In the original Fable, you could make them gradually disappear by making a greater number of your XP generating actions be physical attacks.

BTW:
My original fable build was a ridiculously magick-y dude, with maxed out physical shield (getting hit/scarred is for losers), multi-hit (melee), and time-stop.
I bet you can guess what my (and every other halfway intelligent player's) strategy was, but at any rate, I never got the blue etchings on my face unless my every single attack was coupled with a multi-hit.

I'm saving up to buy Bowerstone. All of it. Only then will I proceed with the plot.

Classic · « **Reply #48 on:** October 24, 2008, 01:33:46 AM »

D-doesn't progressing the plot open up new $$$ opportunities?
O, make a thread babbling about fable some, I want to have a ~~reason~~ ~~excuse~~ place where I won't feel guilty about asking all sorts of systems questions.

Our benevolent and obsessive-compulsive Administration will surely split such topics into their own threads.

The best way to make money is by owning stores. The fastest way is by getting a high multiplier in a five-star job. The most fun way is by digging up a Golden Touch Augment.

I have autograph cards and I have kids who ask me to sign my autograph, but I cannot find the Sign Autograph Button.

But, for example, is my beloved physical shield still in the game?

How will I maintain my impeccable, body? Unscarred except for the deep etching of magic coursing through it?

Use the gift emote, select autograph card. Cards are like $5 from a general store vendor.

I just completed the quest to find the will user. Holy crap that's a fun plot arc.

So is Fable 2 still a game you can complete blindfolded, with your wrists tied behind your back, and a chick in leather stepping on your fiddly bits?

Not that, er, that's how I beat Fable. But I have it on good authority that you can, since all you really need to do is reach the attack button with your tongue. Theoretically.

MadMAxJr · « **Reply #55 on:** October 24, 2008, 08:39:20 AM »

I have actually died a few times. There's a few fights where the enemies have serious mass numbers on you, and I swear my dog was going 'Nice knowing you, I'm out of here!' because he was nowhere in eyeshot that entire battle.

Combat is very easy though, yet I still find it's actually enjoyable.

Also, if you get your physique up high enough, then do the 'slap' emote on a villager you kill them.

So if physique makes you HUGE and magic makes you have glowy shit, what does guns do?

Ah. That'd be an origin, then? It's been a few years.
