Fable II Pub Games: Broken or Devious?


So news broke a few days ago about Fable II pub games being incredibly easily cheated in order to accrue an obscene amount of gold for use in game.

Giant Bomb bought up an interesting point in their latest podcast about the possibility that it was a deliberate ploy from Lionhead; Pay $10 or preorder, Get free money.

I have another possibility.

What's a new feature being pimped for Fable II? Purity VS Corruption. See where I'm going with this?

Could it be that Lionhead left an easy exploit in their game to see who could be corrupted by the temptation of free money?

I am betting yes. Time will tell.

So will you be starting Fable II a penniless innocent or a rich dude with a big set of fucking horns?

Update: I guess not. It was a nice theory....
