Fable 2 says you age in the game. so im wondering can you actually die from old age or is it like fable 1 and you stop at 65 or you just keep on getting older

Well considering that dying of old age in the middle of a game would not only suck, but be a mood killer, I am sure that it will be like the first game. You'll probably age to about 75 and stay there.

I certainly hope so

It doesn't make sense to get the game treating everything as passing through time semi realistically then at a certain time it becomes completely pretend.

So you spend a large portion of your life doing side quests, having a family, etc. - and then you finally make it to the final mission, only to die of old age. I don't think so, man. Plus, tons of people like to travel around and do small things after the game is complete, so it only makes sense for the person to stay alive at a certain age.

Die of age?. Fable 2 sounds like it has alot of depth, but then again I've never played a fable game.

I doubt that you can die of old age in Fable 2. I sure hope you don't age as fast in 2 either. I was old looking halfway through the game.

Sounds good to me.

There's only a certain amount of time in any lifetime and only a certain amount of time until you run out of it.

Maybe hold off on the death until you finish but once that happens then keep that clock rolling and see how much you can get done before you finally run out of time.

I don't like the idea that the game tries to be as real as can be and then a Care Bear comes jumping out and everything is pretend.

:lol: Too funny. I definitely see where you're coming from, but still, I think you won't die "naturally" in the game.

Well if were going for real lets just cancel out stuff like spells and monsters and the such because that makes so much sense. Fact is most people wouldn't find it fun to have your hero just up and die in the middle of a quest so it will never happen that way. It's a game and it's meant to be fun :)

I don't like when games have a time limit. Makes me feel rushed, and I never enjoy the game as much. So I hope you can't die of old age.. lol

Yeah you also get Alzheimer and start forgetting things, like where you left your sword. Also, starting from the age of 75 you have to travel in a wheelchair and you start losing your sight. Fortunately your dog can earn the Guide dog perk to walk you around.

Why would you want a game with a time limit? Especially if this is suppose to be a longer game. I don't want to play, I dunno, 25 hours only to die of old age and have to start alll over again. That'd be the most retarded set up I ever heard of, you complain of realism yet you've no problem running around casting spells, fightig ogres and using potions to cure an axe wound to the neck.

it would be could if the had a fountain of youth quest in fable 2 because the aging is cool but then when you become a old man you wish you were young again they should make a way.

They experimented with that, and having the sons take over, but that didn't work so well.

They were gonna originally let you play your child to replace you when you died. But no, now you cant die of old age.

If the game wanted to be super-realistic, then you would die, and you'd appear in the afterlife depending on what your religious views during the game were. If you're an athiest, then yeah, game over...I guess...

if you buy garths tower and sleep in the bed in the top you look like you did when you first went to the guild cave but you have to rescue him first
