Lenticular_J Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 FABLE II IS COMING OUT IN OCTOBER?!? CRAP I NEED MONEY. AND FINGERS TO TURN OFF CAPS LOCK. Seriously though, that looks awesome. I can already imagine my guy with a badass rifle and rapier or something. Fighting crime. Kicking chickens. Awesome. Graphics look like a cross between Oblivion and Fable, too. Can't resist Fable's charm and swords and guns and magic. Hope it doesn't have a somewhat short quest thingy and then just boringness, though I doubt that will happen. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenticular_J Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I hate Fable, I don't know why. You're a terrible liar. And yeah, that was probably my biggest problem with Fable. Short storyline, then nothing worth doing after that. This looks similarly sandboxish, but with actual things to do. Shovels to build sandcastles and the like. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevepole Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Absolutely one of my most favorite xbox gaming series of all time. I can't wait for Fable 2 to come out, ever since I saw the first teaser was released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alg Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Fable 2 looks great so far. Have to wonder how the dog will turn out though. I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisc6 Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I liked the first one but i didnt like how easily you could just switch mentalitys and how one dimensional the combat is. I wont be playing it because i dont have a 360 but eh it could be another overpromised underdelivered like what happened with fable.Molyneux telling us that this will redefine the genre with fable 1 and fable 2 makes me remain reserved.

RichieMcD Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I normally never buy game magazines but I did the other day because it was the first actual gameplay test of it by a journalist and......well.....I nearly creamed myself when I saw the pictures / read the article. This game just sounds amazing, so much better and more realistic than the first. There is new qualities to your character as well, not just good and evil, now there is corrupt / pure and cruel / kind. There is so many little differences added to the new one which add so much realism, if you run in and kill off a town, in 20 years time there will only be ruins, not a re-populated town like in Fable. While if you defend the town from say a Bandit invasion you will return to find a prospering town in it's place. Owning everything that you would even want to own in the game sounds amazing, can't wait to be the mayor of good ol' Oakvale :lol: I seriously can't wait for this game, I've had it pre-ordered since the first release date was announced and have the game fully paid off already so all I have to do is go in and collect it when it's released \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniseCookies Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 Fable I was fun. Beat it in about 7 hours though so all I did was buy all the houses, max out my stats and get the best bow/sword (Forget what they're called). Hopefully Fable 2 will be longer :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabyPunchers Posted August 13, 2008 Share Posted August 13, 2008 I've played Fable a number of times. All with different allignments and stuff like that. I thorughly loved it. However i've just gotten Oblivion for the xbox360(behind on the times but i've never heard about it before i saw it. :-# )and that game completely blows it out of the water. But as it seems, Elder Scrolls V won't come out for a long time since Bethesda has to work on Fallout 2 first. That means Fable 2 won't have any competition at all. Fable 2 just has to beat Oblivion. Which shouldn't be that hard since Oblivion is almost 4 years old now. Plus, Fable has co-op. Hell yeah. Thanks to all those who have messaged me concerning a revamp of my Range-Slayer guide. Because of you all I will start rewriting it asap.[/color] Formerly RobinHoodie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Th3_Crusader Posted August 14, 2008 Author Share Posted August 14, 2008 Didn't Oblivion take like 4 years to create? For Elder scrolls V I'm sure it'll be along time after fable 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supanova Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 i loved Fable. bought it when it first came out and fell in love with it straight away. clocked over 200 hours total play time on it :oops: then my brother stole it from me and his dogs got to it and so i ended up with no Fable :( but then Fable: the Lost chapters came out, and i fell in love once more really cannot wait for Fable 2 to come out, it's going to be awesome :D might download Fable from xbox live, to remind myself of what i once loved before number 2 comes out. anyone else watched the diary things you can download on Live? and one last thing, what do you think would happen in game if you were to, say, accidently loose a few bullets in the direction of your canine companion? :-# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichieMcD Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 and one last thing, what do you think would happen in game if you were to, say, accidently loose a few bullets in the direction of your canine companion? :-# He'd grab them in his mouth.....In mid-air!!.....and turn around looking towards you........and K-9 Roundhouse kick your [wagon] for shooting him!!!!!

Lenticular_J Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I don't think I'm gonna get Pub Games. For one thing I'm an awful gambler, so I'd probably end up in debt, which is supposedly gonna be bad in the game. nd for another, I wouldn't want to start out super rich or poor. I'll just mooch off my friends. (YES WTFMULTIPLAYER) catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquariusman Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Co-op sounds awesome. Especially since all the other players are just purple orbs floating around until you join/invite them. The dog feature seems to have been focused on too much, it really shouldn't be a large part of the game at all. This is Pet Shop 2, this is Fable 2. I also don't like the idea of guns, unless they mean really simple, single shot, black powder, take a minute to reload guns. That would be fine, since you'd be sacrificing speed for lethality, just like the crossbow but actually worth the trade-off (Crossbow was just too slow to make up for its extra power). Also, the idea of 1-button magic intrigues me - How is it going to be used? Will there truly only be one button involved, or will the spell have to be chosen, and the one button is just a shortcut. I quite liked Fable's magic system. It was melee where I found faults, such as being much too vulnerable when being surrounding by enemies, or even just facing an enemy 1-on-1. Never once did I use blocking in the game, save for the combat tutorial. And switching to magic was much too fast in my opinion. Should have been like ranged and melee, where you have to put away your weapon (Maybe need a staff for offensive spells?). Despite all this I am eagerly looking forward to Fable 2, alongside Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. Those two games should keep me busy for a few months I also have $400+ dollars that I'm trying to hold onto for the holiday/Fall release of games. Gears of War 2, Fallout, BK:N&B, Fable 2, GHIV, Rockband 2, Halo Wars, Portal Still Alive, and maybe even Final Fantasy XIII. The games I buy from that selection will probably equate to $300 There's no such thing as regret. A regret means you are unhappy with the person you are now,and if you're unhappy with the person you are, you change yourself. Thatregret will no longer be a regret, because it will help to form the new,better you. So really, a regret isn't a regret. It's experience.

Alg Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 While Molyneux has stated that the player can complete the main story in 12 hours if they rush through it, it would take much longer to complete everything in the game So, still relatively short, but much more after.

Lenticular_J Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 Meh, that's really pretty average length for most games these days. Should be fun all the same. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonerohi Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Lenticular, depending on if I manage to get a 360 and Fable 2 anytime soon, and I'd like to have a coop contest of who can butcher people in the most gruesome way. Interested? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenticular_J Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Musket balls to the kneecaps! Musket balls to the kneecaps! Why sure.

RichieMcD Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Musket balls to the kneecaps! Musket balls to the kneecaps! Nice idea, but I think a Broad head Crossbow bolt would be most effective, It would lodge itself in the knee and need to be pulled out, it wouldn't just shoot through the other side : I'm thinking more of dislocating peoples limbs with a Obsidian Warhammer and then making them run for their lives, hopefully the game will allow me to do that? :-k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sonerohi Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Ahh, I had something in mind along the lines of causing my wife a sword-forced abortion in front of my other child, then butchering said child and selling them at the deli. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenticular_J Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Or you could give your child a gun and make him "accidentally" shoot you, causing your dog to rend him limb from limb. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
