Huge yay. The game was kind of a disappointment for me when I first played through it. But I played through it a second time and something about it just hooked me. I've spent the last month trying to get all 1100 points out of it and so far I've been more than successful. I have one achievement left in the game and I should get it in a day or two.

I got it a week ago and it's pretty much the only game I've been playing since I got it.

And I havent even finished the main quest yet. I really love the admosphere and the humour in the game.

So it gets a big Yay from me :D

It is kind of a yaynay to me. I liked it traded it it because I used to trade in games. I will probably buy it back because I realize my mistake and I will get the DLC.

NAAAAAAAAAAAAY

It loses its appeal very fast when i first got it i loved it then the story finished in a flash and was basically the same story from fable 1 except worse and the ending is so cliche you see it coming like a train and there are not many quests to do after the story but i didnt do them because i couldnt be bothered. Seriously there is no benefit to you for doing these quests except more and more 'renown' but by the end of the story every one in the whole land knows you and the world is small and linear compared to oblivion or even morrowind. You dont even die you just get a 'scar' which doesnt affect gameplay in any way. And having to work for your family is the biggest drag. And I distinctly remember Peter Molyneux saying that the female characters would get pregnant but after youve done it all there is is a cutscene and you have a baby and it does nothing and all you can do is 'expressions'. You cant talk to people for some reason maybe you dont understand their language. Peter Molyneux is not to be trusted and i will never buy another lionhead studios game in the entirety of my existence.

It is amazing! The only thing I didn't like was the glitches, but they were fixed now (at least, the ones I ran into) with the patch, so now it's just pure awesome.

Yay, but only for a while. It doesn't stay entertaining for too long after you've beaten the main quest.

I had a bit of a mixed reaction to it. At first it was quite fun, the jobs were entertaining, the side missions were fun, and the different types of items were cool. After the second day it just fealt repetitive, especially with the main story. So I'm gonna' have to say nay.

I am still trying to decide myself.

I can't give you a postive or negative answer, but I am curious to see what everybody else says.

im in two minds about it because it seemed unfinished, it had one of the worst endings i have ever seen but the premis of the game was good and hooked me. if i was two make suggestions about it i would say they should have made it more epic, and sorted the evil out, when maxed out u look like a camp demon not like i have seen one, but there is so much they can do with the evil side of the game differet designs, base designs off listed demons and have a system where you work your self up in rankings in order of the demons power obvisouly the devil would be the big don, you would change demon type and apperance, in sted of looking like purple deformed human with twigs strapped to his head- just a little point lol

I'll probably pick it up when it gets cheaper. I really didn't like the original Fable much, and it doesn't really look like they have added anything significant.

Yay .. I had a lot of fun with Fable 2. Yeah I do agree that the main story line was a bit short. And I agree that the ending was horrible. With that said I still feel like there was something there that made it hard for me to put down. So many side quests, areas to explore, and Hobbes to kill. Lots of fun.

Well there are some yay and some nay : Yay to : - the world looks beautiful. - the interactiions with the environment and the people is quite good at least at the beginning - the fighting is so cool : you can create lots of different strategies based on combination between skills and the magic...I still love so much the time control to teleport in the back of ennemies and finish them with a big sword stroke ! And the head shot with aim weapons is a paramount ! the Nay : - Am I too used to GuildWars ? But where the ---- did they have their mind when they designed this map system ? oO' It is a map system for blind people or seriously retarded ones : it does not rely on cartographic cues but name of places...so for example if your are looking for this castle overlooking the sea...you will remember it was in the place called XXX but you have no clue where this place is located in relation to the rest of the world...this is a mapless world...this could have been fun btw that they would have introduced a cartographer that you could recruit to design the missing maps and then sell them, making you famous as an explorer for exmaple...but no...just follow the glittering line...boring...Would it have been so difficult to integrate a bloody radar in the upper corner that represent at least a portion of the map ? And why no general map of this world ? so big Nay there ! - Too easy to get money by overriding the Xbox Clock...after 2 days playing I already owned all Bowerstone...well at least you don't struggle to buy expnsive items...tehy just all seem free ;) - Loading times tooooooooo loooooooooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnngggggggggggg....it seems that you spend your time waiting for the Xbox to allow you to play... But still all together I would say YAY...this is highly addictive and satisfying...you just identify so well with your character due to the fact that you can actually play so many different combination of behavior... I play it for only a few days but I love it....albeit I think that the addiction will fade replaced by boredom pretty quickly indeed, as pointed out by others previously. It is still a lot of fun though. Yay.

Nay. Completed fable II an 2 days, just like the first one with better graphics, had less monsters only decent thing was the story which just like the first one got annoying in some parts. First one was better took 3days to complete had more monsters but lacked story.

I bought it last week and I've been enjoying it immensely so far. I spent a good deal of time just messing around, or buying and selling between vendors to make some money and buy some stores. The emote system is pretty good, though it seems too easy to get people to fall in love with you. I hate having twenty people in a zone all in love with me, so I started flipping them all off.

The combat system works really well and is fun to use. Lots of different techniques you can try, and I enjoy the magic system the most. Getting beat on a bit while you charge a level 5 fireball and then destroying everything in the general area once it goes off... rather satisfying.

I'm probably only halfway through the main story so far, so I don't agree that it's short. I guess it's short if you do only the main story, but with all the other stuff that can be done in this game, it has some good lasting appeal.
