15 Fan Demands For The Fable Reboot

15. Childhood

One of the more original hallmarks of the Fable series is that the games begin with you playing a younger and more innocent version of your character. While Fable III showed us a prince who had no idea about the world, the first two games in the series had players cast in the role of children to begin with. Part tutorial to get players used to the controls before the stakes were real, these sections were also used to set the story up.

The childhood section would be a great way to create unique characters, with both a set mission that will lead to adulthood and a series of side activities that further define the Hero before they've even dreamed of that title. Those getting into a lot of fights may start with a long-standing scar. Those who join a gang may have criminal contacts in the future. Those who are good and go to school will be able to read books that are beyond other characters. Those who work an apprenticeship may start with higher skill levels in that job and perhaps a little more money saved up.

Give players a meaningful childhood where they can invest in their future.
