GBG!! Outside the Crucible. Lucien was defeated. Almost all quests completed. Pure saint. Everyone loves me. Owned a couple properties. $95k in the banksaving up for one of the $100k properties. Nice arsenal of weapons and potions. All abilities except for a for spells maxed out. Blast through the Cruciple again. Step outside, then 
BLAM. My ?Hero? just stands there, everyone and everything around still moving and chatting to me. So I fast travel to another region, same thing I just stand there. The sights I seen in the Cruciple must have put the fright in me. NOW I AM JUST A LIVING STATUE FOR PIGEONS TO POO ON. THANKS FABLE 2. (In all actually I was going to restart with an evil version once I bought a little more property anyway.) But come on!!

Just beat the game <20 minutes ago, got Inferno to rank 4, tried it, paused the game, (Completely evil, chose wealth) and then when i unpaused the game the D-pad selections didn't come up. No HUD comes up except for *Inferno* at the top of the screen. Went to a different region, and i still can't get my HUD to re-appear.

LOST EVERYTHING GLITCH
I havent seen this here yet so Ill post it. This is a major annoyance. But after you return from an event from the story,(where your gone for 10 years) I returned on the dock with NOTHING! No cloths, no skill, no weapons (all my unique weapons were gone) and my dog elixir is gone.....This happened twice, at the place I mentioned and at the end, which actually allows for a slightly different ending. But now I have to feed my dog treats to heal him, and I lost everything.
FORGETFUL WIFE
For some reason my wife still talks to me like im married to her, but there is no ring above her head. I also cant make babies anymore (no option) even when she says shes ready. If i buy her a ring, she marries me again(So far ive married her 12 times) So I killed her, waited 7 days and she respawned

I have quite a few glitches honestly...
GBG
DO NOT TAKE the gender swapping potion when you are married to a wife/husband that is NOT bisexual. The reasoning for this is that your child will remain, the house is considered occupied (Not rentable) but your husband/wife will completely disappear. S/he will NOT reappear. And at the end of the game once I got one of the "family emergency" quests, I cannot solve it, and it will not go away. I have no child, and no wife and the house is useless.
GBG
During the first part of the first leg of the quest "The Hero of Strength," do NOT speed through the process of speech with the Abbot. My wife (In real life, mind you) did this with her character and it became stuck. It is VERY similar to the same issue with Reaver. He should say you need more renown, and then suggest you do some quests. What he really does is become inert and acts like every other NPC, thus resulting in a need for a restarted character.
ANN
Be careful of diving into the water in Westcliff. It is extremely difficult to get out, and the only place to do so had me working on how to get onto dry land for about 30 minutes. It kept glitching and putting me back into the water.
That's all I have right now.

Every baby I have after my first born always disappears. If I'm lucky, the baby would mysteriously vanish after becoming a child. My brother has this problem too and whenever he loses a kid, I do too and vice versa.

Had the same thing happen to me. Had a second kid after the whole Spire thing, went away for awhile and came back, and he was running around with his sister, I gave him a couple gifts, etc. Then suddenly one day I went back and he was gone. His name vanished from the quest page for my family, and it was pretty much as though he'd never existed.
Looks to me like Lionhead put this game out about six months or so before it was actually ready. It's buggy as hell, to the point where no self-respecting developer should have signed off on it.
A fantastic game that is marred by unbelievably bad decisions to release it before it had been completely finished.

I agree to the above poster. This is a fantastic game, but the previous Fable had no where near the game-crippling glitches that I've had. I've finished and had to restart 2 times in this game. I'd like to just play around in the end-game content, but it seems I always hit a game ender glitch. This time around, no families for me, thanks.

Also, some other very minor glitches.
This is basically a blanket-type glitch. Happens ALOT.
Whenever the game shows information text (Spell Name, Character Name, Information), it may sometimes freeze on this. The only way to get rid of it is to switch zones (Doesn't always work), or hope it goes away on it's own.
It will also do this when you use Left Trigger to target people over and over. For example, if you're looking for someone, and you keep using LT over and over to find him/her, it may freeze on the last person you inspect and keep his/her name up there with the entire status bar. Incredibly annoying.

I've experienced a very minor glitch where certain animations stay for a long time. For instance, a lightning ball forms in mid air after a lightning attack. This is pretty common for me.

Has anyone had a glitch where your character doesn't move his/her legs when running? My hero looks like she is just floating around...I tried talking to people, switching regions, restarting, saving, and nothing has worked.
help!

Alright I'm currently trying to accomplish the "Infinite money" glitch. Where you buy a bunch of property, log out, set your clock ahead, then log back in and have a bunch of money. But my xbox makes me sign in, in order to access my saved file. And xbox live resets the clock everytime you log in. Does anyone know how to change this?
Nothing you do in WoW will matter, not even in WoW. "Here's some money, waste my time."

*Phew, this FAQ saved me a lot of trouble with the hero of skill thing. THANKS

I think the Bowerstone Furniture Store Glitch should be posted in bold on the first page here, because it seems to be happening to a lot of people and is very frustrating. The only answer I've read thus far is to kill the shopkeeper, and a new one will eventually come selling furniture. However, I read a post that said the shopkeeper was killed and he still had the problem of no furniture for sale. I would like to know if this is definitely true, before I kill my shopkeeper and run into the same problem - thanks!

I found a gold glitch, IF you own several houses or shops and set the x box clock ahead 1 year and re-load the game you be given the maximum amount of gold you could get from being away.
Nov 8, 2008 7:56 am GMT
Gold glitch was fixed in the original update...
