Good follow up to Fable 1. Fails to deliver on some promises made.

Fable 2 is a quality game that should be played. That said, it lacks the depth of other RPG's in terms of character development and story. I think the guys at lionhead think that you can replace character and story development with sandbox elements. You cannot.

The main story takes under 7 hours to complete. It is a very easy game. The combat is quick to master and there is a golden trail that leads you exactly where you need to go for every quest. Add to that map travel and no death penalty and you have a recipe for a quick ride.

The sandbox element and achievements are worth a look.
However, the shear lack of armor and outfits is ridiculous. Very limiting

Overall, Fable 2 left me wanting more. I have played through 2 times, collected all the property and weapons I wanted. Got my achievements and got out. I hope they do some good DLC in the future.

They need to add weapons and armor. Although about weapons, your best weapon is maxed out magic.
