About Fable II

"Now let's talk about the opening of the story, as I said, you can be a man or a woman, the story starts in classic computer game style. It's all about this regal bird, flying through this amazing and incredible landscape, through down valleys, over mountaintops, through city streets, the bird just comes to rest on the top of this tower. The camera follows the dump down, it comes down, the crap lands on this kid's head - that's you. Anyway, that's the style of the game. You're nobody, you're nothing, you live in the sewers, everybody, you know, just disregards you. Your destiny is to be a truly great hero." --<i>Molyneux at X06</i>
