Is Fable 2 up to the bar set by Oblivion?

I've just finished doing about everything there is to do in fallout 3 and oblivion and am looking for a new rpg. Is Fable 2 any good? I've only heard indifferent opinions on the game.

Well they are very much different. I enjoyed it alot.

well fable 2 is not (by far) as long or expansive as oblivion and fallout 3. Although this is true, it does stand alone as a decent rpg title that will last you quite a while with dlc and a decent replayability value.

I honestly cannot recommend Fable 2.. I've had to restart 3 times now because of quest bugs that prevented me from progressing further. When I play games, I put 100% into them and that usually means I hate replaying them. So you can only imagine.. But while it was working, it was fun...

its pretty fun, but as good as others.

They are a lot different but Fable 2 is a very good game imo.

It's fun fun fun. But light as a young girls laughter, it also makes me laugh like a girl.

If you're after some light relief it the proverbial dogs gonads. If you're after the depth of the games you mentioned, you will be dissapointed.

Saying that though, Albion is a very immersive world.

Kind og agree, although I loved both Oblivion and Fallout. Gave up Oblivion after 150 hours and had hardly touched the story. Still in Fallout and adore it.

Fable 2 is a fantstic game and achievement by Lionhead.

I thought the combat in Fable 2 was MUCH more fun... however everything else seemed better in Oblivion.

IMO Fabl2 and Oblivion are the two most dissapointing 360 rpgs so far. There are alot of better rpgs on the 360 imo then those two (Lost Odyssey, fallout3, Mass Effect, Last Remnant).

How is Oblivion dissapointing at all?! It's easily one of the top 10 games this gen. What's next, is the Orange Box a rip off?

I can definetly see whysomeone wouldn't like games like Oblivion and Fallout 3, especially comparing them to the last game in their series. You can be disappointed in weapon selection, lack of good books to read, how easy it is, not as many interesting things to explore, the world is big but doesn't have much going on in most parts of it, ruins aren't fun to explore, enemies level with you, etc.

There really isn't much of a difference between Fallout 3 and Oblivion except for the combat and a little more detail in the world for Fallout 3. I can see why a few people would like one and not the other but for the most part if you liked one there is a very very good chance you will feel the same way about the other, unless you really hate guns, mostly blunt melee weapons, and grenades or bows, magic, and swords.

Fable 2 is good, but not as good as it was said it was going to be, the first one was great, but I hated the second one...I recommend you try a different RPG, but if you can't find one, Fable 2 will be there.

Plus, you could become a werewolf :D

fable 2 downed the bar set by oblivion. it was short, constant respawn guards, no armor, can't travel around like you can in oblivion AND theres no dialogue from your character!!!!

It's a good fun game but it's not Oblivion or Fallout 3.
