Consider this a mixed rant at Fable 2/ Discuss Fable 2 topic. Spoilers BTW.

First off Ill ask those who have played it to stand up.
Second, Ill ask those who have encountered game breaking bugs in the game to keep standing.
Lastly Ill ask those whose dreams and aspirations of the game to quietly sob to themselves in despair.

Now heres why Im having this rant, I bought the game as soon as it came out, anticipation and eyes all a'wonder after years of dreaming. It was a good game, I played it and enjoyed it thoroughly.
Until the bugs started to show through.

My dog got lost, not dead nor sleeping (not even 'he ran away' as my mother used to tell me) he dropped off the side of the fucking map for 3 days of me playing it. Upon which he casually strolled up to me and made no comment on his dissapearence save 'Bark, Bark *dig up condom* '

Next I got married. Albiet to a prostitute, but a fine prostitue she was (and cheap!). With my wife preggers I decided to move us into a new house. Upon which the game DUPLICATED my family (in the Family drop out menu only, not actually in game) I was then subjected to the BIGAMY quest because of this (Yes, bigamy . Of the same freaking wife!)

This was, as I thought to be rendered moot as I completed The final story quest, which rendered my family dead (although the game says that my invisible duplicate wife is still alive and 'Wants Sex') and despite this last niggle I prepared to move on with my life and get married again.

So, through various quests and such, I found myself with a zombie wife via the Lady Grey quest. We had a child, moved into the most expensive house in the game and had myself dubbed KING. And all has been fine for years (in game time that is)

Until last night when, after making sweet zombie love to my deliriously happy wife I exited the Fairfax gardens to Bowerstone market to get her a present (an hour's journey time in game) upon re-entering Fairfax Gardens where my wife spouted she wanted a divorce (with me having no option to discuss it, win her back, or figure out how the hell after 2 hours and years of a Very Happy relationship this was all happening)

Grabbing my son (Orgionally called Pete, then Eamon, then HorseCrap) she runs to Bowerstone Market upon which a note appears telling me she divorced me, the next that she has died (from travelling from one safe region to the adjacent next) and the last that my son has been placed into an orphanage.

All within 5 minutes of hot, sweaty zombie sex.

Oh and then it auto saved. Yay.

So with my rant over, and me being quite glum about how my charecters awesome life is now shattered, whats everyone elses opinion of the game?

I eat babies. Also, read my fanfics.

So...do you have any interest in necrophilia?

*Is still standing*

Fuckin A dude. I was really hype and I enjoyed it all the way through. I was maxed out, had like five families, twelve kids, and life was good. I was loved by everyone, I chose to save my family and dog, I owned everything so I was making millions of dollars constantly. Life was good. And then I went down under Fairfax or wherever and found the accursed gender swapping potion... As a joke (just to see what I might look like) I said, "I'll take a swig of this and then just reset and leave without drinking it." So I did. Auto Save. FUCK! So then I was a big ugly, white haired, gargantuan woman with scars over each eyes, a huge bosom accompanying my grossly muscular body, and blue streaks covering my goodies. FUCK! So I got screwed, and I got pissed...

Alas, I thought, "I'll try again, and this time I can do better because I can give myself good weapons and lots of money to start out with and I can live the luxurious life. So I got my cousin to get online and I gave him all of my legendary weapons, most of my later game clothing that I liked and a few million dollars. Then his Xbox froze before it autosaved (for once) and I lost it all. So I said fuck it and haven't turned the game back on since.

Lady Grey was a good lay for me too by the way.

Xantar: And for your information, I didn't call on any minions. They got into this on their own, and they seem to be having a blast.

Marci: Screw you too, I'm not your minion.

Xantar: Also, Makokam is not my minion. Just thought I'd point that out.

Oh god, I laughed so hard at the 'Lady Grey was a good lay for me too'' :D

I was quite lucky when it came to the gender-swap potion, I thought it might be an auto save and had my finger on the 360 power button just as it started to change my appearence but before the autosave. Loaded it back up and yep, still had a penis. It's a good thing Lady Grey is bisexual but I dont know how my Hero's son would have taken to having an undead mother and a transexual mother.

Thats harsh what happened to all yer items man, I dont think I could keep playing if that happened. It makes me wonder what the testers actually did for this game, as theres so many horrible, horrible glitches that could and probably will put off people from buying any more games from them.

It's really unfortunate because it is quite enjoyable too.

Yeah, I did enjoy the game up until that part. Slightly disappointed at the length of course, and the ending blew in my personal opinion. But otherwise it was quite good, I loved the dog and the families and all, even though one of my little girls in Oakwood glitched into the wall and just stared at it for most of the game.

Lots of annoying glitches yeah, but I did enjoy it. I just wish I could have enjoyed it for longer.

I played Fable 2 briefly. It was alright although the dog annoyed the hell out of me... kinda like my puppy!

I never got to have my character freak someone out. Although both genders loved her >;3
