Fable 2

Re: Fable 2

With my main character I didn't really use magic much at all. I got Inferno up to level 5 but I was pretty much a ranged character.

Having all your skill abilities maxed out makes you pretty hard to touch except against those spire commanders and that one spell they use.

The resurrection shrine in Knothole

Spoiler

There have been hundreds of people sending us emails, complaining and even threatening us because something happened to their faithful dog. Obviously I don't want to spoil the Fable II story for anyone who hasn't finished the main story yet, so I'm not going to go into the details. A beloved editor of gaming blog Kotaku (who will not be named) even has been sending me multiple emails claiming "I am not talking to you people. You made me sacrifice my puppy for the greater G o o d [Good]."

Since the DLC Knothole Island will be hitting Xbox LIVE marketplace tomorrow, I wanted to draw the attention to the following bullet point from the site;

• Unravel the mystical secrets of the resurrection shrine.

Now I'm not going to spoil Knothole Island for you either, so while I can't really say a thing (or the infamous PR police will hunt me down and kill me to death), I think it'd be fair to say that you won't be playing Knothole Island without a trusty friend on four legs....

Clear enough? Gna gna gna!

Woot!

Re: Fable 2

I noticed your dog will now follow you into pubs. I don't remember this happening before the patch.

This game runs so nicely off the HDD. Menu lag and small hitches when running are completely gone. This was one of the louder 360 games too and it's nice not having to listen to that anymore.

Re: Fable 2

I just started this game last week and have finished a few quests. My question is...should I wait until I finish the game to buy and install the DLC or should I do it now?

Re: Fable 2

Do it now so you'll get more use out of the new items.

Re: Fable 2

Finished the DLC. It's pretty cool. I didn't rush through and it took me about 2 1/2 to 3 hours to finish. I still have some exploring and item collecting to do. The dungeons themselves aren't really anything special, but a lot of the items you get and can buy are great. I'm hoping for some more meaty DLC in the future though, like a proper expansion.

Flawless...can you answer my question above...should I dl the DLC now or wait until I have finished the main quest....or does it not matter one way or another.

Re: Fable 2

Well, it sounds like you're still early on in the game, so I would wait. According to the latest video diary, you can't do any of the quests until you're about half way through the main quest and you can't do everything until you have completed most of the game. Of course you could go to the island and open a few treasure chests that contain some things you might like to have.

Re: Fable 2

After playing it a bit I'm changing to wait. There's some powerful enemies around there.

Bring this stuff...

Pretty Necklace
2x Table Wine
2x Puny Carrot
Marriage and How to Survie It (book)
2x Crucible Peanuts
3x Crunchy Chick
2x Murgo's Big Book of Trading
Eternal Love Ring

There's more but I haven't got that far yet.

Also yay for the shrinking potions. My first character doesn't look completly rediculous anymore!

It's called Hal's Rifle.

How much space does it take up to do that? Also..how do you do that?
