Snoopers had one last Fable 2 video available, this one showing the combat system in action. And with this video, I can finally go get some much need sleep!
Loakum @Driftwood Awesome! I’m loving it! It does show a much crisper picture and the frame rate looks good! I was playing Stella Blade and Dragonball Soarkling Blast! :) (4 Weeks ago)

I don't get it Peter. Do you think we're going to get lost?
And yea Im guessing you can be pure magic as long as you only use magic to fight with.
Remember:
GTA IV:
Pure Storyline: 20 + - Hours
With Sidequests: 40-50 + - Hours
Oblivion:
without Sidequests: around 100 Hours
With Sidequests: 500 + - Hours...
Fable 2 with Sidequests: Around 50 Hours (whish)
I mean 12 hours is out of PR people's mouths, which means it's a veeery kind estimate at best. The design philosophy that games should be short baffles me, it's like their reasoning is that "if they wanna just get it over with, they can blow through it quickly enough". Who WOULDN'T wanna spend more than 12 hours in the Fable world even if they're not imaginative enough to mess around with random stuff?
I am a fan of downloadble content as long as its worth it, so hopefully they will go that route.

And by the way I didn't JUST focus on the main plot but that what I mostly did, I couldn't give shit about sidequests as in most cases they don't give much story or plot or feel to the world.
I prefer a game with a much much longer storyline and as little as possible sidequests, and if there is sidequests they gotta have a real purpose by adding plot to example learning more how the world works and history about places and things like that, not just go kill x and take y that most quests is games are like.
i did pretty much everything there was to do in oblivion, i got all achievements plus i did a ton more stuff that didnt really mean much, and it totalled 100 hours. i think if i ran purely through the storyline. where talking maybe 15 max. i mean, the main bulk of oblivion seemed like the guilds, and from what i remember, they where all completely optional.
12 hours does seem kinda dissapointing, but not when you consider i completely fable 1 in the same amount of time and that was EVERYTHING done, 100%. if its 12 hours, and theres a good 8-12 hours worth of side quests on top of that (not including stuff like marriage, pub games etc) then i'll be happy.
i mean, look at mass effect. that was like a 6-8 hour story, the only way to bulk that game up was to land on random planets and explore your ass off. and even then it only totalled about 20 hours...a lot less then practically all JRPG's and definately less then oblivion.

There is also a speedrun who completed ALL quests in Oblivion and that just a bit under 15 hours.

speed runs dont count. if they did i dont think theres a single game out there that lasts more then 2 hours.
Well I know what type of outfit I am gonna go with, something like Brotherhood of the Wolf and Van helsing, without the hat.
The shortness of it is a bit of a concern, but i'm sure i'll make multiple play-throughs, each time focusing on a different skill and choosing a different alignment.
too bad thare's no clothes physics...:P
Regardless the game looks really cool, especially the combat and story, but if it's only going to be 12-24 or so hours they are going to disappoint a lot of people.
