Fable II, the official thread.

[Amnestic]

Has anyone else made the connection that...

Spoiler

Theresa is the Hero's sister from Fable 1

Or am I just retarded?

Spoiler: Indeed!

Yup. The whole "blind" thing twigged me onto it straight away, considering that was more memorable then her name. Though that of course means that canon wise the Hero of Fable 1 didn't kill her, whereas in my case I did. Brutally. Stupid *****. It also means she's been alive for a couple of hundred years. I can only wonder (and hope!) that the ending is going to lead up to a Fable 3 in the far future.

Spoiler: Nothing major, but you still may want to finish the game first

So am I the only one who loved Reaver. His every line made me chuckle, Hammer was just retarded and Garth was too dull. Out of the three heroes he was by far the best. But no where near as cool as me.

I didn't like him at first. Thought he was a pretentious twat(still do). Plus because I was playing a Good game I got my youth and beauty sucked away and ended up with big glowing red eyes. The whole "I'm handing you over to Lucien" thing kinda annoyed me too. He kinda grew on me by the very end of the game though. I appreciate that he stuck with his "In this for myself" viewpoint the whole way. He was a Rogue with no allegiances, and for that I gave him begrudging respect, even if that betrayal thing still made me want to headshot him with my rifle.

Oh, and I almost forgot. He shoots photography man. That annoyed me too. Not as much as say...someone kicking my dog, but it still annoyed me. That guy had been around as long as my dog had

Hmph...

Spoiler

Is there any way to save your dog? I'm crushed...

Spoiler: Endgame yo

Choosing "Love" (Centre) option when Theresa gives you your Wish returns your faithful furry friend to you for the after-game. The other two choices, Sacrifice and Money, don't to my knowledge.

 

[Bling Cat]

Was anyone else impressed by

Spoiler: Hero of Will quest

The choices in the spire? They were clear cut, but the way you had to choose: Evil points and experience, or good points and loss of experience, realy impressed me. I felt it was very effective.

I own Bowerstone market, Old Town, West Cliff. Still got Oakfield and Bloodstone to buy before I am queen of albion.(Also, I make 90k gold every 7 hours of not playing ) Also I got a nice sword from the temple of shadows on my other guy.

Spoiler

After getting 2000 points at the temple of shadows sacrififce 3 temple of light monks and your wife between midnight and 1 am.

Also how do I get a lute for the bloodstone door?

 

[Bling Cat]

You can just buy them at general stores I think. Bowerstone general should have one.

Yeah, that was a really good quest.

Spoiler

I got lots of evil points by pointing and laughing at the starving prisoners. Screw loosing experience for those fools to eat. Shouldn't have got kidnapped in the first place.

Oh, so did I. I'm a sleazy business man! What do they expect me to do? After all, I was saving up for sub-targeting. Dang, shooting bandits in the crotch never gets old.

 

[Alone Disciple]

I have to ask this, in your opinion, is it worth buying? or is it worth renting?

fill me in

also, how long does it take to beat the game? (not including the extra side missions)

don't forget to post spoiler warnings guys

Very worth the purchase, I beat the story in probably 12 hours, and it does require a tiny bit of side questing to beat.

As far as the 8 spells, each spell has two effects, a targeted effect, and an area effect.
EX: Inferno functions as a fireball when targeted, it works as enflame from Fable 1 when non targeted.
Control Time when non targeted just slows time, when targeted you teleport behind the target.

You beat it in 12 hours?

Well, I suppose kudos to all those that beat it in 10-15 hours. Now go back to play angain...and this time ENJOY it. By that, I mean, go explore all the little amazing things in the world..play with your dog...look for all the hidden goodies...and do side quests.

Maybe I'm old fashioned...but when I spend $60 on a game...I want to savor the whole experience, explore the hell out of it, find all the tricks and wonders..not make a bee-line to the end to say I beat it in less than a day.

You youngins' today.

 

[Aginor27]

I've gotten hold of 4 legendary weapons now, I've been trying to get the one that you are awarded from the shooting range, but i'm such a slow aim.

If anyone else is trying to get it, try doing it after you invest in westcliff. When this is done, instead of having to shoot villagers, you'll be asked to shoot bandits, which are bigger targets.

Well I am guessing he is estimating because he would need quite a fair bit of change buy a master weapon.

I just ran through the main quest quick as I could. Now I'm taking it easy and exploring, lovin' my dog and looking for a nice home to settle down in.
Also, where that hell are all the ranged legendary weapons. I have three melee ones, but I want a nice shooty gun.

A drunk just wandered up to me and said "There has to be *hic* a kebab shop somewhere!"

Kudos to the designers for recognising that Kebab shops > all as far as British drunk food goes.

I just spent the last 30 minutes trolling around Albion trying to find 5 Crunchy Chicks for me to eat in front of the Temple of Shadows man to gain entry. Finally get them all, pop over and he gives me five straight off. DAMN YOU! *shakes fist*

You are using a clockwork firearm yes? If not get your ass out and buy one so that you don't take so long to reload.

 

[Aginor27]

My character's morbibly obese, and nothing seems to help.
Vegetables don't help a thing, and the SECOND you eat meat or pie or whatever you get even fatter.
My character drank 3 beers, then he was a lard ass.

When you are looking at veggies click the right thumbstick right. Look for veggies with thin in the top most stuff.

Eat Celery, it works wonders.
