Quick and simple:

Although Fable 1 was a letdown (I loved it but in contrast as to what it promised it was a letdown) the game had alot of wasted potential. So, what do you think Fable 2 could be? Alot has been promised but will it live up to what it promises. It could be great, it could be a promise breaker.

What do you think Fable 2 will be?

I'm sticking with "A crappy game that does nothing but break over ambitious promisses." until it's released. I was sp hyped for fable but man that was a horrible game.

Elderscrolls games have alot more lore, better atmospheres and places, and better devs of course. I'm not excited about Fable 2, I'm more excited about the Oblivion SI expansion and Mass effect.

This one could swing wildy into either glory or mediocracy. The original failed because they ran over time and over budget, but at least the first won't happen under MS's management.

I think it'll deliver much more this time around, there was too much pressure with the first as it was Xbox's major RPG bar Bioware's outings, there's much more selection this time around so the decreased pressure could result in a better game, or backfire and slip under the radar with other quality RPGs out.

Fable was supposed to be a let down but still a good game where sa killzone was both a bad game and a let down.

If they go by the mantra: "release it when it is done" then the game will be fantastic. If not, it will just be Fable with a bit more stuff to do and nice graphics.

None of the alternatives really apply to me. Seeing how I learnt my lesson from Fable I won't be disappointed, but I think the game will be good.

Why don't you wait until you see something more about it before bashing it.

It's the games that fall half way that bother me. Either make it totaly fantasy and/or arcade like or as realistic as possible.

Well, I think Fable 2 will be a great game, the 360 has the power now to deliver what Lionhead has been dreaming of.

I think the first Fable suffered from the same problems the PS3 is now facing. Not delivering on your own promises. People expected the earth and got slightly above average.

Will Fable 2 dissapoint in graphics ?

Not a chance in hell, Fable really took all xbox had to give, so will Fable 2, it has every chance to be the best looking 360 game

Will Fable 2 dissapoint in battles and fun ?

No way, it was one of the most fun to play games i ever played, really fun and zelda like but with spells too, rpg action heaven x 100 in Fable 2

Will Fable 2 dissapoint in things Fable 1 did (Story, length) ?

In the sequel they have knowledge of what brought Fable down 100%, now they go fully for a huge story and a huge in length enperience, plus they will have all they promised for Fable and was not in

Will Fable 2 innovate ?

If we consider Fable was the first RPG of lionhead, we can safely say that now they have 100% more experience and tools to use for expanding what they did great in fable with new things, the fact that they will not waste time with physics and AI (they licensed two engines for those), makes it even more possible that they will now focus on innovation

So, everyhting is really favourable this time, from the new immensly powerfull hardware, to the experience they gathered with Fable, to the fans comments, to the already perfect things like battle and art of the first game, etc

If they focus more on the RPG elements than the gimmicks, it could be really good. A great story backed up by some classic RPG gameplay, lots of items and character customization and excellent supporting cast. If they focus more on horns and sex, it will suck.

What made Fable so great was that they didn't really focus on RPG elements. It featured some well done customization, great animations and effects, and a fantastic combat design. I was one of few who didn't hype Fable before it released, and I thought it was a fantastic game that I've completed well over 9 times (Lost Chapters included).

If it's what Peter (can't spell his last name :P ) wants it too be then it will be revolutionary imo,just as the first one was supposed to be,but it fell a mile away from being evolutionary.

I dident hear the hype for Fable, so I wasent hyped for it, when I played the game it was a pleasant surprise, I loved it, I've played it through 8 times, lol. I think Fable 2 will be a great game, that wont dissapoint me personally, but I don't think it'll be revolutionary.

That's not a game. It's a big gimmick. Fable was a terrible RPG, probably one of the worst ever made because the story sucked, the characters were generic, the gameplay was repetitive and the customization aside from the gimmicky "good / evil" BS was incredibly lack luster. The game completely lacked any of the things that make an RPG a ROLE playing game. I don't know how you can call Fable 'great' for not focusing what makes an RPG fun to play and instead focusing on ridiculous, little meaningless tidbits that in the end should only be an ASIDE to the game, not the ACTUAL BLOODY GAME. That's the most utterly ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Fable was a terrible game and a terrible RPG.
