You getting it?
Your thoughts?
Concerns?
Graphix?
Gameplay?
Anything else really...

i'm not getting it, stage demo's just show like a minute of combat then the rest is just doing normal everyday stuff in a city to get money, get married, boring stuff that you can do IRL...i don't wanna pay for a video game where i just live some dude's life. (except the sims, they pulled that off in a strangely fun manner)

Did you ever play the first game? There's much more than just "living some guys life". That is just stuff added in. Plus, this game offers so much more in the manner of action rpg instead of whatever kind game the sims is... Ah well, i'm not here to argue. Thank you for your input.

You should never, EVER put your opinion out on Fable until you play it. It is one of the best, if not THE BEST RPG out there. You're not "living some dudes life." It's an absolute entire world.

well then maybe they producers are advertising Fable 2 wrong, don't fucking take it out on me... all i've seen is walking around cities, not my fault that they don't show anything else.
true, i've never played Fable 1, not very much into RPGs (except KOTOR)
i'm sorry if i offended you by deciding not to buy the game, goddamn, are you brainwashed or something?

now just ease up, man, you're taking this way too seriously, it's just my opinion about the game, you don't need to get pissed off at me.

alright, i'll think about it. but keep in mind that i don't want to pay for something just to try it. if anything i'm going to borrow it from someone who does have it

edit: it doesn't SEEM like you're angry now, but before you edited your post it was a lot more...hateful...than it is now...i do believe you called me a retard :?

if i play it, i say fuck civilization, im just going to run around killing everything i find, messing around in cities just seems like a boring needless new feature

I edited it.

And yes, you can say "fuck civilization" and run around killing shit. There's a good and evil path (although in the last game, the choice you made at the end could change you from completely evil to completely good and vice-versa >_>).

Throughout the entire game I was like 100% good. But at the end the sword looked way to badass to pass up. So I was a bad enough dude to kill the girl.

Sigged :P

I Pre-Ordered the Collectors Edition, but I was a bit gutted when they announced the Removal of the Tin Box, Hobbe Figurine and Fate Cards. THat aside, I'll have it on the 24th(Release date here), and I'll probably be playing it all the next week.

I've been hearing some Rumors concerning Online Co-Op, that they will be releasing a Patch to allow it, anyone heard about this?

Supposedly, day of release there will be a patch for online coop. I just hope whoever I visit online has forgotten to protect their world, so I go in and destroy it :twisted:

I'm not sure about the online bit but there is a very high chance that co-op is going to be in fable 2, in the form of a patch.

It was going to be included, cut last minute then re worked on or something along the lines of that.

Watched some gaming show and they interviewed fable 2 makers, went through the game aspects ect, and it is going to be released not too far down the track. Im not sure if that means weeks or months but something to look forward too ether way.
For a Picture less sig, you can have up to 5 lines of text.
1024 pixels left to right, which is about as long as this sentence, when it ends that is.
don't forget top to bottom! 768 pixels for that!
Wow! so much I can write! hmm.... what should I? to late for a pic.
Damn, better think of somthing witty fast or I'm gonna be the laughing stock of Hal...

There's local coop from the get go and online coop to be added via patch later, it has been said that it is expected to be released at the same time the game comes.

I played the second one, a legit copy, my friend got it, and I hate it. He said he could get me a copy, but I wouldn't waste half the price they're retailing it for on it.

And I hated the first one aswell.

Here are my opinions..
Online - A joke.
Gameplay - Boring, I'd rather sleep.
Graphics - Fine I guess..

That is all.
