According to this pic on IGN there is dual wielding. The hero in the picture wears black and with a scar, and is holding two knives. Is there any information on this?

Holy crap...that picture was big! it took me like 10min to download with isdn...well i hope u get duel wielding...if this pic is real u should get it

I believe we have discussed this before because of that exact image, but the one we discussed looked more fake than that one. I'm guessing since it's genuine, but I'd still have to say that the character displayed is just an NPC. Nothing more.

Its probably some sort of test character. A mock-up done by BBB for the opening sequence or just for screenshot purposes. Dual Weilding would be cool but since there is only going to be a basic one button attack system it makes more sense to limit it to one weapon. Though they did say you can have a two-handed weapon.... not the same but at least its something.

It was probly just a rendering done by BBB for hype purposes. I dont see how they could get a screenshot like this from the game no matter what they were running it on. A TV's resolution is 640x480, and HDTV can only go up to 2046x1080, Moniters cant even go that high.

It is concept art, but they already stated there are no dual-wielding for the main character, just NPC's

well if this is an npc, then it must be an other hero, it does not look like a ordenary npc...but i may be mistaken, i havent realy looked in to the npcs so much...well well...no dual wielding, ill manage with a great sword

No, I'm not saying that that is an NPC, that is concept of the hero, but in the actual game we cannot wield 2 weapons at once.

I do wish they were in, but maybe they tricked us? I doubt it though. They said they would have to come up with to many different animations to do it.

i hope you do....i wonder wht id wield....long sword for blunt damage purpuses and mayb a magical dagger or something....i dunno cant wait....

I dont think Dual Weilding would be that great. And it wouldnt really matter in the long run if you have two bad weapons doing small damage vs a bigger weapon doing more damage at once.

I have a few ideas....

1)Hes right, u can duel wield
2)Its a pair weapon.. meaning that its one weapon that is actually 2 daggers...A set.
3)Its a cinemetic...(Im new to the love of fable so does that look like the real graphics?)
4)Its fake...
5)Its a specialized Image for magazines etc.
6)Like someone said...Its a NPC...

I hope its number 1

Developers already stated it is concept and not in the game
