i just beat the game and i did not die throught out the entire time i was playing. the lvl 5 spells make the game way too easy you cast one blast and every guy on the screne is dead and its prety easy to charge up for it.

Same problem with the first Fable.

Fable 1 - You were given so much potions and stuff, nothing could kill you.

Fable 2 - You literally can't die, you can only be "knocked out".

Very easy game, but it was still a fun experience. No point in keeping the game once you get all the achievements, in my opinion.

Yes, the game was very very easy. But easy does not necessarily equal bad. After all, they were going for a light hearted game that anyone could play. High difficulties don't usually go very well with accessibility.

it lack challenge and its simple game play and quirky emotes make for one juvenile game. Maybe I am am an old fart but its just a childs game IMO..

it was too easy because they gave the players the ability to level up too quickly and easily. if that was toned down about half or 1/3, it would have been a more epic and challenging experience.

Well, I had fun with it, although part of the fun is gettin smacked around so you can get some cool scars, but I just couldn't just like stand there while they beat me, so naturally I never got any :(

i guess im the old fashion one. What is wrong with a game simply being fun? Peter molyneux basically pounded that into our heads all leading up to the release of this game. it wasnt meant to be hard. its meant to be playable by all, mastered by some. if you truly are skilled, then you are able to level yourself up quicker and of coruse reap the benefits. He made the game with the Wii mentality: Fun.

i dont see why this game isnt replayable. i cant wait to be the polar opposite to the good, male hero that i am, and see how it affects anything or everything. and later on down the line, i know i will pick it up again and play through it however i choose. i loved fable 1 and fable 2 will be the same.

There were absolutely no consequences other than scars which seems a bit moot in the grand scheme of the game. However, it did prove to be a great experience while it lasted, unfortunately the longevity simply is not there.

If im not mistaken you would actually have to beat the game 3 times to get all the achievements. To me the game is replayable for sure.

Thank you , that is so true I'd played the first one like 6 time "good & evil" on my pc

but I can't stand the idea of playing fable 2 a second time ....

I'm sorry it doesn't deserve a 8.5

I don't remember the first one, but in this one it's very easy to max out ALL the skills and magics and whatnots in one playthrough, which basically makes playing again pointless. Same goes with good and evil. You can max out evil and the decide to get 100% good all in the same playthrough. Also, the "3 endings" achievements are easy to get in one playthrough. Just save before you get to that point, then reload when you get the chievement so that you can pick another ending.

Yep, I was never knocked out, not once. The game is an absolute joke when difficulty is concerned.

It was quite easy, it almost felt like the game was holding your hand and showing you what to do and how to do it. Where are the days of trial and error?

It sounds kind of wierd but I had the most fun when I wasn't playing persay. For me wandering the colorful landscapes and seeing the people was the most fun. I'm probably in the minority, but most of my game's value came from personal investment in my hero.

Well said. I enjoyed the hell out that game, until it was over. Felt a little short changed, but loved it none the less.

yeah it was easy... but i hate games where i am meant to be some kind of epic hero and i struggle to kill bandits because they want it to be "challenging". frankly i love just walking through the woods and being ambushed by bandits and just thinking to myself "i guess we are doing it the hard way..." then charging up to a level 5 spell and just going BAM.... and they are all liying on the floor moaning
