I expect Fable 2 to be pretty confined and linear really...
Same here, I think the freedom thing will only be in certain area's, doesn't bother me either way :)

i would never expect TES like freedom either way, but i did expect more then what we saw in fable 1. i mean, one of the promises for this game was that it would address that issue of linearity. its just a shame its only in specific areas.

what i wanted or at least expected was an area to be essentially a box, with linear paths running throug it, but where that whole box is actually explorable. the simple addition of beaing able to jump a fence to cut a corner or 2 adds a lot to these types of game and make them feel less linear then they really are.

it not an issue that technically bothers me either, if it did i would cancel my pre-order, but its something i wanted to see, especially after what peter. M has been saying.

Well Korn, we've seen so little. There are many different areas in this game, but the game has to have those more linear sections. It's part of what makes fable fable.

What I'm looking forward to most is not even the story (although I will enjoy it and I hope it is epic), it's the exploration and finding all the limits of stuff to do in the world.
Like how much of this game is free to explore, how far do the limits of good and evil reach and how customizable and different can people's characters be.

And are those things like marriage really gonna be extensive and not just a gimmick like in the first game.. Are your kids gonna grow up and be hero's themselves, or will they allways stay 4-8 years old.

And one thing I'm not sure about is the co-op:
Can I actually play the whole game co-op or is one person the main character and the other just a henchmen who acts as a guard instead of a true co-op experience

"Molyneux made the surprising admission during our exclusive interview with him at a recent London press event.

"There's low spots in the game," Molyneux explains. "It's no one's fault that these low spots are there, it's just there's a lot to this game."

He then explains other gripes he has with Fable II. "I think the lip-sync is pretty bad, you know, the quality of the animation falls off, you know, quite a lot, I think the navigation can be a bit dodgy sometimes, I think the dog can... get a bit fractured sometimes."

Check out the full interview to find out why he feels these flaws won't matter

kinda worrying to hear from the man behind the game...but im still looking forward to it

I think he's just trying to not overhype his game. He's good at hyping things up but he's also modest.

He is just being honest, as this is the same for most all RPG'S out there, theres so much going on that there is bound to be a glitch or two around, just look at Oblivion (GOTY) for example, every time i play it there are glitches, its the nature of the beast with rpg's.

Read all the new previews out there, and my hype meter has now go up further for this game if that was even possible, just reading the previews drew me in, i can tell i going to loose allot of daylight to this game.

watched the embedded interview with mr molyneux and the end kinda surprised me when he said he doesnt want us to play the game twice, but i can see where he's coming from. personally i played fable twice, first time evil, second time good, and i have to admit the second time was almost a chore. it didnt seem to work with multiple playthroughs even though on paper it sounded like it should have. not as well as other games anyway...but screw him, im playing through twice for fable 2 as well, just to see how the character evolves by doing the complete opposite actions.

i'd be interested to see everyones character by the end of the story tho, just to see if they do turn out as different as they say. cos i remember fable 1 having very limited choices in terms of armour, so all evil warriors ended up looking the same as every other person who played as an evil warrior.



everyone i know who played evil turned out looking like that.

They cut out the hobbe figure from the LE!!

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

http://kotaku.com/5057688/fable-ii-lce-drops-in-pr...

It looks like Peter Molyneux's ability to promise features for his games that never arrive extends in the world of retail box sets as well. (We kid because we care)

Due to a "supply chain issue" the Fable II Limited Collector's Edition will no longer include the premium box, five printed fate cards and Hobbe figure, Lionhead Studios today. To make up for the missing feature set, the collector's edition will now run for about $70, instead of $80.

The Collector's Edition is expected to hit on October 21 in North America and Asia and October 24 for Europe and will include:

* Fable II game disc
* Bonus DVD with new ‘Making-of’ Feature
* Bonus in-game content (requires Xbox LIVE®)
o ‘The Hall of the Dead’ Dungeon
o ‘The Wreckager’ Legendary Cutlass Weapon
o Spartan armor and energy sword

Lionhead is also giving away a Fable album they created for the game as a free download. The download includes a selection of music from Fable 1 and three brand new tracks from the upcoming Fable II soundtrack.

To grab the music go to this link starting on Oct. 6 and enter “FableCollection” as a promotion code.
