TL;DR: The new Fable game removes the traditional good and evil morality system, focusing instead on a location-based reputation that changes with each settlement. Players won’t alter their appearance based on deeds but can customize their hero’s look with cosmetics and gear.
Not sure, but I certainly don’t get “it’s there” from “there is something else instead that feels completely different from the original design”.
We’ll have to agree to disagree about it feeling completely different then! Not least of which because I haven’t gotten to feel it at all, since it’s not out. It looks very cool and fun imho though! Still think the headline is unfair.
