The problem is, that Fable 1 didn´t have to compare itself to anything.

Fable 2 has to be compared to Fable 1 and there is just not that much that sets it apart that really matters TO ME.

Fable 2 is more of the same with some things missing but then tries to replace these things with new stuff that feels a bit strange at times.

The shitty map is what really does it in. You cant be in an area and simply press down on the right thumb stick and get a detailed map that tells you where the road you are walking down goes. So you really have to rely on the auto travel. So you auto travel somewhere only to talk to one guy to have to auto travel back or somewhere different and you spend half of your play time watching a load screen. Everything in the sounds like a good idea but unfortunately it plays out like design flaw domino effect.

At least it didn't connect with the kids and we're getting action figures and stuff. Or are we? I haven't been to a shopping mall in weeks.

I think it has just enough sex and STDs and such to spare us from all that.

I just finished the main quest after 20 hours or so. I liked the game, but I feel the same way I do about much of Stephen King's work: good buildup, but with an ending that is rushed and unsatisfying after so much had been put into it. I may go back through it again with a different alignment, but I imagine it'll still feel the same. I give it a 6/10.

I thought it was alright. The style is very unique, and a change of pace from the more hardcore Oblivion. I liked the combat a lot, although dying is about as meaningless as death in Bioshock. Perhaps even less so.

death was a joke in fable 2

I didn't die once while playing Fable 2. Oxblood already pointed out the main flaws with this game, but there was never a point where I felt challenged or stuck that didn't involve the map.

I love the outfits in this game. All six of them.
