Fable 2 info

Molyneux also said that he was depending on typical Hollywood storytelling techniques for the setup of the game. Like the first Fable, the sequel will begin with the main character (who can be male or female), and the conflict will be derived from an "unspeakably evil" enemy character. Molyneux said that this was particularly important to fuel the player's hatred in the game and hinted at some sort of incident with your family as a mechanism to drive this.
 
I'll so get Fable 3 too, if it's in a wild west-ish world... seems like this is more along the lines of the renaissance.

Let me guess, when it's on the PC?

20 bucks, BC, one of the best Xbox games ever, get it :mad: :(
I just got it. I fricken loved the first. Easily one of the best games ever. Only RPG I've ever liked.

Fable 2 > Oblivion, perhaps?

I seriously cannot wait for this.

The IVth one? I don't see it, but I'd hope so. The 1st Fable was great, and if they succeed with their respected improvements, I'll get it.

Nah dude, we got Fable on Xbox, need to get Gears and Dead rising and Mass effect too, soo I'm down with a 360 :o
 
I only hope Molyneux delivers on the promises. That's all the assurance I need to know Fable 2 will be the greatest RPG ever.

No, Mass Effect will be better. Fable < All Bioware games

Damn, Mass Effect skipped my mind. OK, if Fable 2 delivers, it will be one of the greatest RPGs ever made.
 
Molyneux > Bioware. I'm as big a Bioware fan as they come, but Molyneux is a talented, talented guy. Fable 1 was a game he had very little to do with, Fable 2 is a game he is working on hands on with, and that is going to make a huge difference in my mind. Probably not story wise, since Mass Effect has 3 30 hour games to tell it's story and Fable 2 has only 1 20 hour game, but pound for pound I honestly expect Fable 2 to end up as the better game. Even if they just take The Lost Chapters, give it a new coat of paint and some more length, it's going to be an incredible game, and we already know they won't just do that.
 
I reckon it will be a cute, fun sandboxy game to play, but will lack a sophisticated and engaging story just like the first one. Molyneux makes games. Bioware creates deep, involving worlds with memorable, 3 dimensional characters, stories that rival the best novels and movies, and great, openended gameplay to boot. The first Fable was all hype, and didn't do anything that the first Baldur's Gate didn't do. Sure, you can effect the world, and choose your path, but the only difference is that in a Bioware game, you give a **** about that world and it's inhabitants.
 
Your children will also be fully responsive to you. How responsive? If you are poor, they will be skinny and ask you to give them food. How cruel you can be? You can eat in front of them without giving a single piece of what you’re eating and they will beg for a bite.

cruel lol
 
Hmm no mention about the multiplayer stuff

Last, but not least, comes a feature Peter said it will be the one we game editors will write the most about and you, the gamers, will talk about it the most. This is the feature for which people will remember Fable 2, a feature the world of gaming will be surprised about; this is the &#8220;super secret&#8221; feature&#8230;. Unfortunately, we&#8217;ll have to wait until next year for Molyneux and company to reveal what this feature is.
He gave one hint though; this secret feature is in some way related to the &#8220;unconditional love&#8221; feature explained above in the way that it is all about &#8220;emotions&#8221; Molyneux wants you to experience when playing Fable 2.

What can be so secret about this super secret feature ? When the characters do it are they actually going to let the players see them do it or something ? Thats the only thing I can think of if its part of the "unconditional love" thing. If its something like that they better be ready to face the same problems GTASA faced
 
well Im still curious as to why the multiplayer talk seems to be avoided :o

They'll probably start talking about it at E3 2009.
 
Can you still have sex with people like in the first? I don't see why It would be taken out, you never saw anything happen.

Its an even bigger role in Fable 2, as you can have a real family(with kids). If you choose to create a female character you can even get pregnant. The game is gonna be no less than epic.
