Fable II (not disappointing anymore!)

[MinisterofDOOM]

I got the legendary Turret Rifle and Blunderbuss today. The blunderbuss is insanely powerful and the turret rifle has a nice set of augments and reloads very fast.

Are they hard to get?? I beat the shooting range with a clockwork pistol, scored a 190. Got the legendary pistol for it, i love the pistols they shoot so ridiculously fast, i just tear through everything. I wanted to get the legendary sword from the temple of shadow but i dont think i can anymore, this guy is good, and when i went to the temple yesterday i just got attacked by a bunch of shadows and a banshee. Killed a shadow monk because he wouldnt talk and that was about it.

Nope, not hard.

The Turret Rifle is in the Wraithmarsh demon door. You need to be pretty well renowned (I think I'm at 75000 off the top of my head...maybe it's 7500) so you can have a lot of people follow you. Then you get as many as possible to follow and travel to the demon door (it's at the far northeast of wraithmarsh). Best way to get there is to fast travel to the flooded farm, then RUN past the banshee so she doesn't kill any NPCs. The demon door will perform a "play" before his "audience" you've provided, then open. The gun's inside.

For the blunderbuss, you have to buy Brightwood Farm (so you need to do both quests "Cold Comfort" and "Blind Date"). The gun is in the cellar that Giles warns you not to enter in the note you get when you buy the farm. The cellar entrance, by the way, is in the barn to the left of the house.

So I finally got my copy. WOW! I can't believe I picked Fallout 3 over this game. The graphics are great. I like the lushness of the forests and over all game design. Controls are good, the elimination of the Mana and bullet system is great. You can just have fun attacking and not have to worry about running our of bullets or not enough mana.

This game is a must play especially for those who played the previous one. Unlike Fallout 3 which I sold, after I finished it, I think I will be keeping my copy of Fable 2, because it's that good.

This game reminds me that being bad sometimes can feel so good.

-anybody down for some Coop? mykill818

Fallout 3 has ten billion seven hundred million times as much content as Fable 2.

And it has around forty gajillion times as much replay value. Once you hit the end of Fable 2, there is NO POINT to playing any further. You can buy the DLC but it's maybe a couple hours of gameplay at most. Then you're done again.

I'd be down for coop if it wasn't intolerably broken. Shared camera and I can't bring my hero? No f**king thanks.

Fallout 3 abruptly ends the story, then you have to buy the 3 DLC to keep your story going.... I think I will wait to get the GOTY edition. So far Fable is fun, Fallout was fun too but I felt like I was managing y inventory half of the time.

I guess I will give the final verdict once I've finished Fable 2...

[MinisterofDOOM]

Actually, only one of the Fallout 3 DLC packs will continue the story. The other two are side-quest content that must be finished before the end of the game.

Fable II is fun, but doesn't really have much value after the end, either. You can collect the legendary weapons if you haven't already...but since the game has ended there's no point to having them anymore. And you can buy everything...but again, the game has ended so there's no point anymore. The DLC ads a laughably miniscule amount of content with rewards that aren't even worth earning. I finished the game, owned EVERYTHING, and had all the legendaries long before the DLC hit. The DLC was easy, the rewards were CRAP compared to my character's gear (the "special" DLC-only clothes you have to work for have poorer bonuses than the regular clothes I just bought at a store long before I finished the game...WTF?!).

At least the gear you get from the Fallout 3 DLC is worth getting.
