In the game Fable, you can get married. There’s a specific sidequest in which you can get married to the sexy-but-evil Mayor-ess with her big house and get a legendary weapon. Me wants. Alternatively, you can expose the mayor and become mayor yourself. Good times.
Now, there are two ways to marry said Mayor. The stright-up way is to do a series of quests for her hand in marriage, or at the very end you can reject her and marry another girl, who is poor but even sexier, and actually a good lass. Me likes. However, she vanishes if you marry or expose the mayor.
Has anyone found away to expose said mayor and marry the good girl? It seems the geniuses at Lionhead linked the two quests together as a cheap and cheazy way of forbidding you from messing things up. So you finish one and the other ends immediately, even if this makes no sense.
I can confirm that is not correct. In fact, the quest to expose her is an alternative way to get maried to her in the first place, and it is impossible to expose her if you are already married to her.
You’re right, hmm… I don’t have Fable installed at the moment, but judging from the walkthroughs, if Poor Girl automatically disappears when you expose lady grey then it’s probably impossible to do both.
I’m not even sure they actually finished coding that quest. Lady Grey walks out with a dire warning that she willl be…back! “Dun Dun DUUUUUU-uuuun!” But ntohing comes of it. In fact, your hero just sort of lets her slowly walk away, even though I was pretty well willing to decapitate her on the spot.
They didn’t quite think this game through when they made it. Probably because the designer was too busy talking to the press about all the cool things he had no actual intention of putting in the game.
I was severely upset when I solved the whole thing in, like, four days (and I am not a hardcore gamer), and I realized I probably missed 75% of the game. I didn’t feel like replaying it. It was fun, but man was it…lacking.
No,m you really didn’t miss anyting. I’m slowly going through and doing everything that takes my fancy, and I would have been done long ago except I play in tiny segments. The bar-room minigames are incredibly obnoxious.
Not entirely on topic here, but I remember when I played it years ago I married her. Then, after beating the shit out of her up and down the roads of town she divorced me
It always pissed me off that no matter how bad you beat her she just wouldn’t die.
Man, that was a fun game to be a horrible piece of shit in.
The only other game I enjoyed being such an ass in was KOTR I.
When you have the wookie kill the blue alien runaway chick. Man, that was the only time I ever felt guilty in a video game.
