I don't know if there will be pirates, but it seems logical that there may be some around the ports if the game is set 500 years after Fable:TLC.

I don't recall hearing about pirates in Fable 2. Where did you get this information from?

I don't think that guy's a pirate. He could be a soldier or someone else. Its better to wait for more details before jumping to conclusions.

Oh, that guy. I thought you meant that guy who was firing a gun in that hooded little girl's apparition. Hmm, the guy in green clothes, right? He doesn't look like a pirate to me. Looks more like a Robin Hood look-alike if you ask me.

If its set around the 16th/17th/18th century and kinda has a European/British feel to the setting like Fable did, then it could be anyone as they all wore funny hats and wigs back then lol.

I still think its possible they could include pirates, but I personally don't see the point unless they include boat travel etc. into the game. Pirates on the mainland will just be like bandits but dressed differently so I don't really see much point in them. If you were on a boat and they raided it and came aboard then it would work

If pirates are going to be introduced in the game, there could be a possibility of ship travel in the game though I'm just making a guess here.
