Fun to play RPG with a good vengeance storyline, moral choices, and be a property magnate at the same time.
Deals with morality.
Many unique quests to do.
Combat is pretty fun for an RPG.
Interesting characters
Dog!
The Bad:
Too easy to do some things, like becoming fat.
Wayyyy too easy to get Cash.
Some jobs are quicker money makers than others.
Fable II is a fun game, no questions asked. If you wanted a fun RPG with a sense of humor, and a bunch of stuff to do, this is the game for you.
The game starts out simply. You're a little kid with a big sister, and you see a magic musical box for sale by a trader dealing with exotic items. Your sister doesn't believe it, but a mysterious stranger convinces her to believe it. The training for the game takes place in trying to get the 5 gold coins for this music box.
The main portion of the game however, deals with trying to take revenge on the main villain of the game. You have 2 main characters: You, the hero, and your best friend who runs around on 4 legs. NO, I'm not talking about that weird zombie standing next to you, I'm talking about your dog. This companion is a constant source of laughs, of happiness, and of pity.
The jobs section of the game is... interesting. Most of the jobs just involve waiting to press the A button when the cursor goes over a green spot, but others don't. In the bounty hunting missions for example, you use your combat skills.
Speaking of combat skills, the combat in this game is fun. You have 3 weapons, melee, ranged, and magic. The combat is fast paced, and rewards you for mixing it up in the fighting with magic, and melee, and ranged, all in one battle.
Family wise, you can have a wife or husband, and a daughter or son, and they'll want you to visit them from time to time. If you don't, your wife or husband will divorce you :(.
Finally, the expressions. These will be needed to impress people, woo people, and most importantly, win people over. There's a variety of expressions, some that will make you laugh out loud.
I can't explain every little niche in the game, but if you want to try it, borrow it from a friend or rent it, and then buy it. Playing it will always be a better judge than words. If you're not a fan of RPG's, I might not suggest it, but otherwise, it's a great game.
