"Set out to overthrow the ruler of Albion and then take the throne for yourself"
Here's the news from the page copied and pasted.
"To start off Microsoft's GamesCom press conference, Peter Molyneux took to the stage to reveal none other than Fable 3. Before Molyneux talked about how Lionhead Studios could surprise gamers with the game's story and provide something "new, fresh, and different," he made a curious comment about something wrong with Fable-like RPGs. "I think there's something fundamentally wrong with RPGs like Fable... It's a mechanic that's been there since the eighties. I'm going to take that foundation stone and throw it away." Of course, Molyneux is keeping his lips sealed about just what that "foundation stone" is for the time being.
You might be wondering just how this ties into the recent hints we've been getting about the project Lionhead is working on. Mimicking the historical figures and leaders that Lionhead has been posting pictures of, your goal in Fable 3 will be to become the ruler of the world of Albion. Molyneux said, "You are going to become the ruler of the whole of Albion. You've played in this land in Fable 1, in Fable 2 you became a hero; this time, why not rule Albion? Why not be a king or a queen?" He added, "I want players to feel and experience what it's like to be a ruler."
You'll take up the role of either the son or daughter of the Hero from Fable 2. The first half of the game will center around gaining support and starting a revolution against the current king. "Ultimately you overthrow that terrible tyrant who rules Albion, but to do that you have to make some promises," said Molyneux. But it's up to you to keep those promises about help the poor, lower taxes, and so on. An example of the decisions you'll have to make is your ability to do away with poverty by spending all of the money in your treasure room -- or you can just save it for yourself, but either way, there will be consequences. And as ruler, you'll be able to have a family that naturally take up the roles of king or queen and prince or princess.
It was quite a long presentation with lots of details -- expect to hear plenty more as GamesCom rolls on. Fable 3 is scheduled for a release in 2010, but as Molyneux says, "Don't expect it too early in 2010." "
