Alleged Fable concept art which is claimed to have leaked via an unnamed developer's portfolio seems to point to a Fable 2 location being ion the reboot.
And changing yourself. Frequent magic users would get old and spindly, I believe occasionally glowing. Axe swingers would get ripped. Your character would be a literal representation of your playstyle and that was cool as hell.
I’m actually pumped the Forza guys are making this. They’ve done a pretty good job with that series, but obviously racing is a whole different ballgame.
And I completely agree with your opinion above. If this turns into some overarching parody of western folklore, I’m out. That’s not the tone I’m hoping for.

It was both more and less involved than that. Putting XP into the Strength stats made your character buff, Skill stats made them tall, and Will stats gave you glowing patterns on your body, except in 3 where they made your tattoos glow instead. What you actually did was irrelevant, just how you spent your XP. In Fable 1, buying levels also made your character older, but age became connected to plot in 2 and was dropped as a morph in 3. Moral alignment in all three and ethical alignment in 2 and 3 also affected character appearance, but the specifics varied a lot between games.
