will/appearance

this is just to state something that would have been a nice touch so i dont really expect too many replies on this

ok so heres the thing: it would be great if using certain spells alot affected your physical appearance, for example: using alot of lightning causes a constant pulse of electricity through your body

or maybe using physical shield would make you naturally weaker to melee because of the fact that you are not actually taking hits?

that's a damn good idea mate! =) if only eh?

also if Fireball was your fave Spell, as it is mine, instead of the cacky glowing aura you get around your hands... which i might add is very annoying when your wearing Gloves... wouldn't it be nice if fire replaced that?!

it would look extremely cool if you were Evil!

or maybe if you use enflame alot then instead of the evil guys stupid red mist you would have flames? satanic style!

lol... that would rock! although i've grown quite fond of the red mist... in a strange way =P

i dont think theres enough red mist, and what about the good guys? why dont they get some white mist?

when you're Good, you get butterflies and a heavenly aura from above... but only when you're standing still! unlike the red mist that is constant, even when you're running...

thats basically what i mean, the appearance changes for an evil character are so much more obvious then for a good character

which i don't mind, as i prefer playing an Evil character! >=) but it is a bit annoying in the long run... you would've thought that they'd try to make each alignment roughly with the same amount of changes, noticable changes that is... but hey, another post-game whinge lol =)

yea i seem to be making alot of post-game-whinges recently, maybe its because ive heard of the new fable for pc i want these things to be added or fixed?

lol ditto =| i'll stop whinging sometime soon... hopefully

as for will and the appearance changes it would have, another thing to add, i like the idea of becoming physically weaker against Melee attacks the more you use Physical Shield! that's a top idea... maybe a little to indepth... but still a top idea! =)

also how about making it so, instead of just getting better at everything, each Spell you use changes some aspect of your character in a certain way... be it strength, defence, etc! =)

i like the way your thinkbox works!

i should work for LH =P

penguin_king · #13 (**permalink**) 03-19-2005, 06:10 AM

yes you should, it would be nice if some of the ideas from these forums actaully went to some sort of higher wisdom(i say wisdom i really mean peter m)

3V1L 0N3 · #14 (**permalink**) 03-19-2005, 06:18 AM

lol who knows, maybe some of the ideas do get passed around, maybe LH has a sneaky peek at Fable forums from time to time... would be better for them if they did, there's some nice ideas flowing through peoples minds at the moment...

they'd be daft not to take note, after all, this is what Xbox gamers want from Fable games... would be a revolution if designers listened to their targetted audience! =)

on that note i have to leave lol... have to see a man about a dog! =) catch ya later p_k =)

agreed, just reading up on all this is great, expanded plot and everything.

for example: i rented the game for 2 days and was half done it =P corse then i bought it and iv been running around alot instead of doing quests (cant ruin the fun there)

will tatoos should be darker for an evil character, it gets anoying with the red mist then little bluish on em, although i am mainly a melee fighter

also, what is the best way to train for most of the things? iv been increasing my strength and skill, but havnt paid much attention to will, is it really any good?
