Fable 2

Re: Fable 2

thanks for the input guys...it sounds like a MMORPG...but ends at some point lol. i suppose the MMORPG's do end at a point ie: you get so leveled up that running around doing quests get boring and such.

What's also great about this game is missions that unlock after beating the main quest. There is a whole lot to keep you busy with this game, much more than the 10hr. main quest, which is a very good thing.

Question: Anyone else get blackmailed for being a bigamist? :wink:

Re: Fable 2

I'm pure evil and corrupt and I don't have any flies following me so I don't think that's it. Maybe it has to do with what you are eating.

If you have too many people following you, perhaps a turn to the darkside is in order. The temple of shadows could always use more victi...I mean converts. No one follows me, they flee.

Re: Fable 2

I want to be Pure and Good this run through. Is it true you can only have one hero at a time?

Re: Fable 2

No, just start a new game. Looks like you can have 5 or 6 at the same time.

Re: Fable 2

Ah, ok. Being good is fun and all, but I keep thinking that going through as a bad-*** wizard/witch would be a lot of fun as well.

Re: Fable 2

I like playing Keystone. Hit for like 1500 last time I was playing.

Re: Fable 2

I found the stone cutter and bought the ghoul augment and the gold augment. I just need to pick up a master cutlass with augment slots and I'll be set.

As for the attractiveness, most of my clothing has aggressive +%s attached - I'm not sure if there anything with increased attractiveness that I'm wearing, but I think renown plays a big part too.

Eh, just go get the Dai'ichi Katana, best 1h weapon in the game.

Go up to Garth's tower in Brightwood, get on the top of it, there's a broken piece of guard rail up there and you vault off of it into a well. Go through a tower with some pretty easy puzzles and the chest is at the end of it. Best Katana in the game by far.

Sweet, thanks.

How many Legendary weapons are there in the game? And how many things do you have find for the woman in Fairfax Fields next to the excavation site?

Re: Fable 2

There's quite a bit of legendary weapons, most of which aren't worth using.

Here's a list: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genme...topic=46113689

I use the Dai'ichi Katana and the 177 damage Enforcer gun.

Re: Fable 2

So, a couple things about this game that I've been thinking about:

The camera - I wish it was closer to my character as I have a hard time to see some of the more subtle attributes (ie: scars, facial hair, etc).

Maps/Regions - I really wish there was a map display during gameplay. I don't like pausing the game when I want to know where things are at - especially since the pause menus take a little bit to load. I agree with others that have said that while the world is noticeably bigger as whole than the first Fable, it still feels smaller/closer together since nothing really connects to each other.

Dog - I love the dog. It doesn't make going out on adventures/exploring as lonely as the first game. Maybe I need to find more war dog books, but my dog doesn't attack very often. I do like his nose for treasure, though.

Art Direction - I love the look of the game and the feel of the atmosphere of the different regions and the game as whole. There's a real-world basis, but then it also feels like a fantasy. I love the music during the game, especially in the creepy areas.

It is. I completed the game with a pure+good character halo and all, and I didn't have as much fun as I'm currently having with my corrupt+evil character.

re: the camera, if you click and hold the right stick for about 3 seconds (and keep holding) the camera zooms in on your character.

Ah, awesome. Thanks.

Re: Fable 2

Also for those who have beat the game:

Spoiler

Man the end was intense, I almost came to tears when the dog died. The three choices were really hard to make, I couldn't see not having my dog back. He just grew on me.

Spoiler

I chose wealth. Molynuex said if he got you to care about the dog in anyway, he won - well, he got me to care, because I miss my dog.

I plan to play through again as neutral character and I will definitely be choosing love.

Also, did Thereasa come across as being evil. The way she said the Spire belonged to her did to me. Maybe an expansion?

Molynuex pretty much confirmed DLC prior to release:

"Without any official announcements, I would say that we'd be pretty dumb not to plan it. What I would say, if we're going to do DLC then I definitely don't want it to be just a whole load of new weapons and armour. I just don't want it to be that. It needs to be something a bit more tangible and it would be nice if you didn't have to wait months and months for it as well."

My guy got pretty fat from eating too much meat when recovering from health. I see celery can take off the weight. Time for my guy to get on a diet! lol
