This game really let me down.Fable 1 was an awesome game I loved it.Sure, it was missing some stuff that was promised but,over all it was a good game.Having said that,I thought for sure fable 2 would improve on Fable 1 and.....I was dead wrong...
The good -
-Amazing Huge world to explore
-Awesome graphics
The bad -
-Way to short of a story..I mean you can beat it in 8-10hrs
-BORRRRRINGGGGGG story.If you wanna call that a story.
-Horrible co-op.Give each player they're own camera.People have said "it's so they don't go around killing everyone in your city".
1.Just keep the safety turned on so they can't kill people(sure they can do rude expressions but it's not that big of a deal)
2.Do like in mercenaries 2.Where you have your OWN camera in co-op and had to be a certain distance away (I forget the distance but it was pretty big).
-Wheres the epic boss fights at?.A Troll,A banshee? darth maul??..really those fights bored me and were WAY to easy???...
-Lack of monsters (what like 5-6 different types?)in the game means you get to fight the same monsters over and over!!
-Horrible menus.Trying to change weapons or learn spells in co-op is a hassle and laggy and makes the other persons game freeze and wait for you to be done.
-Speaking of lag,This game lags bad for no apparent reason in co-op sometimes
-Really glitchy.Who ever the beta testers were need to be fired RIGHT now..
--spoilers below--
The last boss really?.Where was the character development at?..Hi!!!,I killed your sister and I'm trying to take over the world.You'll only see me 3 times in the game.1, at the beginning of the game and 2, at the end...
Just get 3 hero's and I'll appear and not try to develop and story.also,Don't worry about a hard last boss battle,I heard you don't even have to hit him!(which he dies in 1 hit anyways)
---Spoiler end--
overall,a decent game but could of been a classic game or a really good game, if only they actually tried.
I give it a 6 and a 6.5.
