I became king in this game and bought ever single f*cKing house bought a mansion and it took me two whole f*cking days to do it and after all that I get no Royality bonus no one saying "How you do King" Why the H3ll Would you allow someone to be crowned King and then Tell them You can't do anything with your powers you can still get arrested you can walk into bowerstone and kill 1000 people and your only penitaly is doing a quest to kill some troll to Repay your debt its just retarded Thanks Yahtzee It really gives me pleasure on wendsdays when you take games that are full of themself and Tear that Aszhole Up. :D | |
In Bruges, maybe? It's also got two fast-talking, smarty pants hitmen. | |
"Why can't I marry my dog?". Love the little dog animation with the wedding veil, haha. | |
As much as i truly love the game and its predecessor, this review was spot on in my opinion. Every issue brought up was relevant and true, but it left me wondering... Why not mention the other(admittedly) more obvious flaws? | |
Agreed! Too bad thousands of other people apparently think the same, because I can never get to the video till somewhere around 22:00 (or 10PM, if you're American). | |
Chips is not a proper name for a dog! Also, good lord, the way the Escapist is whoring themselves out to Nuts & Bolts, I hope Croshaw doesn't review it... they might break his legs or something if he gives it a bad review. | |
I don't know escapist is out to make a dam and he WILL review and hell tear it that sh!t up because its bound to be terrible | |
Get off the forms peter and go back to Lionhead...dam Brisish... | |
So far the videos have been playing fine for me, once and a rare while they freeze or lag a bit. I use Firefox, but as for some of the complaints on the game adverts at the start and end of the video, well that's just business. Gotta advertise to keep the site free to the general public, I'm willing to suffer the ADs if it means getting to watch these great reviews. I'm grateful to my friend who introduced me to this, keep up the great work! | |
I find it bloody hilarious that when the first review came out for this on The Escapist which praised its arse off, I called that they were full of shit and were only praising it because it was being advertised all over The Escapist. Im glad to see that they waited for the Fable 2 advertising campaign to end before they allowed Yahtzee to tear the living shit out of it, which I knew he would do. And when I called that the review was full of shit, most of you Escapist fan boys (You know, the ones who seem to think their opinion matters on a forum site made for gaming but still find it acceptable to have debates about religion on it) got in my face and backed up the review. Now yahtzee has done a review completely different and you are jumping on the band wagon. Get your own brains and think for yourselves you sheep. *sigh* gaming politics, oh how I love thee. | |
haha awesome.. I had a rant at uni the other day how fallout 3 didn't let me kill the kids and yahtzee has the same opinion! the kids in question needed to open a door for me to progress... I could see the pulley but it wouldn't let me use it, i needed to get permission from the "mayor" before they'd open it.. I thought "fuck this!" and tried to shoot the little girl protecting the gate, it didn't even upset her! stupid pretend freedom -.- | |
I am also providing exhibits B,C and D for you to examine. These ones are all from Pro Childkillers. | |
It's funny how he tells us that just like the first game, you only need melee one second, then tells us you only need magic the next, and meanwhile, I've played through the whole game just shooting people. The truth about combat is that it's just like the rest of the game: you can do it however you want, and there's no real incentive for anything either way. | |
Actually I was wondering how the dog is around for so long too. I mean the thing looked pretty big when you saved it as a child, and it stays around when you grow old. About the game... it got pretty boring. big let-down. | |
I do not find myself, nor my actions, moderator-esque. If I did, I would probably be a lot kinder and more patient with the things that irritate me. Because I have no such official requirements, I'm a lot more verbal about things that bother me, the above included. As far as the whole post, I'll do so now.
This is the meat of your post, at least what of it that isn't referring directly to Yahtzee. As such, I do not believe Yahtzee himself reads these comments, or if he does, makes no effort to visibly reply, to my knowledge. As well as the commentary on Fallout 3, I don't believe seeing any review should ultimately affect your gameplay experience. Sometimes you'll notice things you didn't before, but if it makes a game un-enjoyable, then you're probably focusing on the wrong aspects of the game. No, I made the statement that this forum is not 4chan, I not once said you were a chan-tard. I'm simply saying, posting something like that, even as a tail, is very out of character for these forums. Apologies for my previous post, but posting further things like this sort of thing will do little more than further offending me. | |
Hilarious review I still like the game (I'm on my third character) still review was awesome as always keep up the good work. | |
Give it a rest, everything is extremely violent these days and seeing people die in TV shows, movies and video games is common. Basically video violence isn't the same as blood lust in real life, but it is true there are some crazy people out there that get the wrong idea. Killing a computer kid or dog is not any different to me when I slaughter millions of soldiers who do nothing wrong but defend there country or honor or whatever. You might as well complain about violence altogether, personally exploding corpses is not needed in games. Just have it like Counter Strike or Perfect Dark, I don't believe you need to get more violent than that. | |
The game was was not as good as the first one, magic system sucked, and the people were really annoying. End note Yahtzee was way to nice on this one. | |
I managed to keep a straight face until the end | |
That was some funny shit. | |
This one was brutal...Yahzee must be in a bad mood this week. That is, more bad than usual. Still hilarious, though. | |
So Peter Molyneux personally contacted you? Sheesh talk about trying to convince everyone he's the shiznit. | |
I laughed for a full 5 minutes after that end part. | |
No, I'm dead serious. I was laughing my ass off through the entire end of that mini-quest. | |
My brother played this whole game through in about a week, and while watching him kill his 5th wife just for laughs was good for a giggle, I found the ending to be completely STUPID! You can be the most evil of evil, killing towns for breakfast and then when it comes to the magical all powerful wish granting time, the most evil option available is....wish for money. Seriously - what the hell - at least in the first one u got to kill your sister and run around with a big ass sword. Pretty poor if you ask me. | |
Amen, though I feel you should have covered the fact that wether you play good or evil the ending is still the same save 2 lines of changed dialoge and the story was actualy a downgrade from fable 1 | |
You may be thinking of Assault on Precinct 13. Little girl gets shot in front of an icecream car. Not accidentally though. Very intentionally. | |
After the HUGE disappointment that was Fable TLC and after seeing that Fable II looks & plays a lot like Fable TLC I thing I will just stay awayfrom this game until it's for sale for $5 somewhere By the way... you can't kill kids in Fallout 3 either... | |
Hilarious review, as always. Haha! | |
Isn't Fable 2 really more like Fable 1.5? All the crap the first one was supposed to do and a dog too. Yahtzee never fails to nearly make me piss myself every week. A seriously funny dude. | |
"So the whole RPG aspect of this action rpg is a bit of a mess the combat is easily broken and even if you try and challenge yourself, say playing without magic while someone sucks you off..The lack of penantly for death and the shortness of the story quest means you can plow through it to the end credits before you even come." So...its like Bioshock? *hides* | |
No...but you can dail up the console click on them type in kill hit enter and they die which is good enough...and mods will be coming around to fix that issue so.. meh unlike 90% of games that are broken out of the box and left unfix by the devs because they have cocaine habits to spend on...er..wait not the devs as much..the publishers more so... Even if FO3 is almost as unfinished at BS was/is at between the devs actually trying to fix things on it and modding for it its going to be a awesome game. BS just gets a preqaule but no more patches no more fixes no more balance work I regret spending a dime on it.... I do so much like FO3 but good god sicrom and some drm codecs the game installed has fcked over my system... | |

I gotta say... this review was everything I actually expected it to be. The humouresque tone of the Charismatic Stallion aside, Fable 2 was exactly what I'd expected it to be upon researching it. It's just an upgrade of the original, with less freedom than it promised. Good on yer, Yahztee for reading my mind again.
