He has this habit of, you know, making outrageous exaggerations. If you didn't notice from Fable.

In Fable 1, you were supposed to be able to plant things in the earth that will later grow into tree. That didn't happen...

Fable 1 isn't even half of Morrowind, so Fable 2 shouldn't be bigger than Oblivion.

Fable 1 is a great game if you completely ignore all of what had been said about it prior to release.

What annoys with Fable 1 is that once you've finished it, there's nothing else to do. Of course you can own every buildings in every town (did it, it's fun to kill every one), except Bowerstone because you have to fight with only your hand, so it's pretty hard to kill someone (I wonder if actually can); or you can get married to everybody (men and women), but it gets boring fast.

But then again, I didn't buy the expansion .

Pretty much. Also why I don't listen to hype any more.

QFT. What happend to all that stuff?

It was alright, but the whole "past actions affect your future" thing was non existant, even if you are as good as can be all you need to do is slaughter a town and it will be like your angelic past never exsited, and vice versa. With the usual part near the end of the story that gives a diffrent end film, but youd be stuck to find a game without that.

I doubt Fable 2 will live up to expectations either

Meh Fable 1 was good. Not epic as Oblivion or Morrowind. I thought Fable 1 lacked in content. Would be cool if they made Fable 2 into a MMO.

I played the Lost Chapters version and it was okay.
I only really hated how the main character aged so fast and nobody else did.
I didn't want a beard!
Also there was no point in wearing light armour. It made no difference at all.

agreed, my guy already had white hair before facing the final final boss, i mean, wow, like 70 years old, muscular shape, running around like a youngling and carrying a big sword :rollseyes:

and heavy armor made no difference either, you kept getting scars under it =/, unless you mean dark/light, the only "light" armor was at the coliseum, and at my only chance to buy it i had bought a few houses T_T and missed my leet shiny armor.

There's a trainer for the PC version that allowed you to change a multitude of things, and one of them (thank bajeesus!) was age.

My biggest gripe about Fable was that it was a bit too easy. The combat in itself wasn't terribly difficult, but the fact that you'd pretty much trip over about five thousand of those resurrection vials really threw out any consequences for dying.

I loved Fable. From what I've seen so far, Fable 2 looks pretty damn good. I'm excited about the whole co-op thing, playing with a friend would be awesome.
I hope in Fable 2 they give you something to do after you beat the game though.
But I don't think they're overdoing it like the massive failure Halo 3 was. Seeing how Fable 2 wont be out on PC for a while.. I'll have to go and buy a 360 since I strayed off from console gaming..

Not without BioWare Corp or Obsidian Entertainment developing it.

Nah, I don't think it will be. In Fable 1 it said you have "choice", but in the end it usually comes down to Mother Teresa or baby-eating.

Good job of ripping off Yahtzee's review on Fable: The Lost Chapters. You fail.
