Fable 2
Best game ever? Well one of the best anyways. To anyone who here who has played it at the part where you go to the spire, the cinematic, it's like 30 seconds long. However it took 2 weeks to render on their computers. That's some dedication. Although i feel that the sprites used in the game were very poor, the scenery on the other hand was really good. In any event keep it up.

Wanted to play it, Blockbuster was out though. So I went home and played Fable 1, and just started attacking guards in the hero's guild for 9 hours untill I got to Legendary Renown, and did the Ice troll quest. Good times.

It's a fairly decent game. I don't think it quite lives up to the first one, but it's good so far. Not quite done it yet.

ahh ok the ending is slightly stupid in my opinion but what ever, in this Fable it has also been SUPER hard for me to get rid of being evil, not matter what i do it seems to just keep coming back. Although im sure the x98 murder, x22 Vandalism,x6 theft(totally worth the achievement) didnt work but still!

Yeah, I beat it last night. It's passable, but in most ways it is inferior to the original. There's less variety in just about everything, but the game's longer. You can own businesses now, but you have to do stupid mini games to get money, since quests only give Renown. Even killing mobs doesn't give you any gold now.
Legendary weapons are all about nonexistent. Due to the era in which the game is set in, armor no longer exists.
Augments suck, there are less than a dozen tattoos in the game. The plot is in many ways similar to the first one, except less awesome, obviously.
It's not bad, but it's not really great either. I would have liked the game better if they didn't try and push with the 500 years later Enlightenment-Era-Setting crap.

I agree that it's inferior to the original; if you mean when the original came out. The fighting in Fable 2 is just better, although Magic is arguable. Melee now is very well made, although the opponent AI is poor. The jobs are actually kind of cool, although I agree that they shouldn't be the only good way to make money. Working for the assassins guild, or the guards should rank up just like normal jobs. And you can get an augment to get gold from creeps.

I'm on the fence with the new clothes system. The dye idea was really nice, not original or anything, but a good addition. The lack of armor rating is lame, but the last game was even more lame with no variation in end game characters. They did look a hell of a lot cooler though.

Agreed, yes, and agreed. Although the last one's story could have been better. Did they hire a novelist to write the game? Big name writers should write for games more often.

I liked it actually, it's different. The clothes were pretty ugly though.
The game tired to do too much, and in the end it just killed itself. The whole social system was terraible, and it felt abusive. They should have made people take far longer to sway from liking you to hating you, and they shouldn't have focused on the different actions to just spam at people, but have had a few as a giggle bonus like the last one. Instead, what you do in the plot should have more effect, and your general habits, like stealing or helping people.
All in all it's medicore, I would rent the game, get your week out of it, and only pay $5. I wish I had spent my money on something like Gears 2 instead of being impatient.

I have the gold augment on my pistol. But you shouldn't even have to do that. The dye was a cool idea, but the clothes all looked like shit, so it didn't really matter.

I just beat it, and I have to say all up until the LAST thing you do, it was fairly awesome. Loved the childhood dream part. But with no epic boss battle like I had hoped.... bleh.
Also, was wondering, Theresa, the blind woman that guides you, that's not THE Theresa from the first, is it? Also, I'm not sure but I believe she's voiced by Sara Kestelman, who also did Kreia from KOTOR 2.

I agree, i was expecting a huge ass boss battle, then wow! you shoot him WTF? I think some more thought could have probably gone into that. Also the game seemed kind of short in my opinion. I wish it was more like Tales of Symphonia length, and yes add armor. That in my opinion would have made the game a lot better. Not saying its a bad game though.
