[@ridanann]

It's not English humour it's basically Irish the game is made by English people but practically everything references ancient British themes Celtic mythological tropes even down to the name Albion for Britain which basically means the white place like Alba the real name for Scotland. Imitation is the sincerest form of Flattery it's flipside is cultural misappropriation the Fable series of games sits on this Razors Edge like french arthurian Legends never quite sure whether it wants to bastardize the original material. The English a bit like the Americans are a fairly new people who don't really know who they are yet nothing is truly English or American just a mixture of pre-existing things with nothing original happening. when you mistake something for being English you sure you don't understand the thing which means it's cultural appropriation rather than flattery just say British whenever you mean English that's what the English do unless they're racist in which case they say English because they're c**** the English are not their own thing they are simply the newest British people they will be assimilated into the rest of us soon enough. The timescales fable deals with are not actually that big they only look big because your country is less than 500 years old there is a belt in Scotland that is literally older then your country said to be made of the flesh of an Englishman it's not but it reflects the true Nature of the United Kingdom.

[@Fade2BlackSS]

Fable 2 is my favorite of the franchise and the best one in my opinion. More customization, better art design, more options overall for role-playing. I spent HOURS playing this when I was younger.

[@dingle2987]

For me, the change to the combat annoyed me. The removal of spells and how the new magic system made the spells play mostly the same bugged me. I also didn’t like not being able to strafe while using ranged weapons.

[@luisdoyer3260]

Same here, one of the first games I played when I got my 360 as a kid. Still a cherished game, shame that the franchise fizzled out.

[@planescaped]

2 was always my favorite as well. The first game was meh to me, mostly because I actually followed it pre-release, and heard all of Molyneux bullshit hype, and was both naive, and the games industry was early enough, that I believed it. So Fable 1 was very underwhelming. 2 was at least a fun game in its own right... 3 was once again very underwhelming. I never quite understood why Fable 1 is remembered so fondly and 2 isn't... Honestly, I think it's nostalgia goggles. Now I'm not saying Fable 1 was bad, merely that it's not the masterpiece some treat it as, nor is Fable 2 the travesty those drunk on nostalgia act it to be.

[@omlo9093]

Agreed, I would love to somehow replay it on PC!

[@velraven8944]

Another interesting story detail, honestly a borderline easteregg, is that when Lucien shoots you the second time and you're in the childhood sequence (what I call purgatory) Rose makes some comments that hint at the origin of you and Rose. I can't find it and I don't have time to go back and play through just to find it again, but Rose mentions your parents are on a trip and that there are bandits on the road to Bowerstone but that your dad will probably be able to handle them, or something along those lines. To boil down this little conspiracy theory, you, Rose, and your parents used to live on a farm outside of Bowerstone, but on a routine trip your parents were murdered by bandits and never came home, leaving Rose and Sparrow orphaned and forced to make their way to Bowerstone to survive, likely being taken there by the Gypsy's who travel through Bower lake and occasionally let the two stay with them during the winter. The detail that I really like about this is that it's totally possible that the bandits that killed our parents were Thag and his men, and if this theory is taken to it's logical end, that means that our first mission in Fable II was inadvertently avenging our parents, and that's my head canon regardless. If I end up going back to find her comments I'll edit this comment with her exact quotes

[@kintaro9577]

It's been years, but I recall multiple hints that Thag was indeed your parent's killer

[@honkhonk5000]

Dude I’ve played and replayed fable 2 a billion times and never thought about that. I always looked at that as a dream sequence brought on by the music box or tower. You had a chance to live in a perfect life where you weren’t orphaned. I never thought, “hey. Maybe this WAS your childhood at one point.”

[@dandogamer]

Theresa used to be part of a bandit camp, it's possible it was her gang that killed your parents. She plays both sides of the story. She tells lucien where to find rose and sparrow, she informs him of where to find hammer and consequently causes the abbots death so hammer has a reason to become the hero of strength. This is all so she can get the spire.

[@OutdoorBlues]

I just played this today, you’re right! She says something like ‘The Bandit Thag is heard to be on the way to the market, I hope mom and dad don’t run into him

When you get back, the town is heavily expanded and you get extra gold back

[@tylermunday2146]

I cannot explain how influential the fable franchise was in my childhood. I played them sooo many times as a child and even replayed recently and still enjoyed it just as much. Fable 2 was definitely my favourite, it was a fun and accessible game that had a really fun and vibrant stylistic world that i love. It will always be the most nostalgic and beloved franchise for me and im really keen to see if the new game captures the old magic, i will legit buy an xbox just to play the new one if its good.

[@HowDeepIsYourJesus]

Despite it's flaws, which are numerous, Fable II is a criminally underrated game/RPG in it's own right. It was charm incarnate and had some of the most beautiful and original game environments of it's generation. Still waiting for a PC port and some mods to iron out all the flaws!

[@bratticuss]

I doubt we will see a PC port of this game.

[@ThumbSipper]

You know son, I've got a lot of fond memories of this game. It was the first time I have ever played an evil character as a first play trough, roleplaying the protagonist as a little girl who's mind and moralities are broken after losing her sister (and banging her head falling from a tower) and decided to never, ever do anything for anybody other then herself. It's hilarious the extent this game rewards you for being a complete meanie head, haven't touched the game in more then a decade but I still grin thinking of farting, laughing and middle finger...ing in the face of the starving prisoners in the spire begging for food. Good times. And good video son, I'm proud of you 👍

[@jeremycarnes1656]

This game did the best job at emotional investment. I was sad to see Hammer go at the end. I was sad when Rose died, and hated Lucien. I was actually worried when I read the note when she resurrected. My dog being shot bothered me. The whole thing was good at this. Of all the Fable games, II was my absolute favorite.

[@kintaro9577]

I'm still salty you never get to see Rose again if you choose to bring her back to life

[@honkhonk5000]

I hated the dog my entire first play through. Annoying barky animal. I spent quite some time playing post game without the dog and came across a demon door that requires you to do a series of dog tricks and it brings back the ghost of your dog. He’s happy to see you. I swear to god it broke my damn heart seeing the spirit of the dog I hated, the dog that sacrificed its life for me, come back into reality for a moment just to help me again. I was amazed that I was moved. I hung out by the demon door for a while just to spend time with him again. Every playthrough afterwards you can bet the dog got fancy collars, fully trained, and I’d play ball with him. Yes I would throw the ball off of cliffs, but that still counts.

[@LilMizRandom09]

I tried so hard to be evil in this game to see the differences, but I never could. Even now I can't bring myself to be evil in a playthrough. I love everyone in these games so much. That said, just because I always end up being good doesn't mean I don't hoe around with half the town while I save up for a nice house so I can wife the furniture store shopkeeper

[@23iloveanime]

[@bobbobbing4220]

trivia.. at the evil temple, the eating of crunchy chicks is a homage to an exploit where you needed to show an evil act to a demon door. you could trick the game by opening your inventory, and eating 5 crunchy chicks.. worth -5 alignment each, to a total of 25 which was on par with murder.. this was also referenced in fable 3 as you attacked by evil chickens

You can ressurect your dog on knothole island. At the Cheeters Krypt. So you can pick sacrifice but still have your dog for the rest of the game.

[@DioBrandoWRYYYYYY]

I feel like Fable 2 is a victim of the realization that because 90% of the players will do a good playthrough on their first run, the studio, with it's finite resources, will invest a lot more in to the good path than the evil one because that's what the producers would demand from a business prespective.

[@dialaskisel5929]

"[The bosses] are just as simplistic and pretty *droll* ..." In the words of the immortal Inigo Montoya: "You keep using that word. I do not think that it means what you think it means."

[@maidan6425]

Fable 2 is a game that will always stick with me. I played it as a child, and found the game to be fantastic and bright just as I found it almost scary, especially the second half. The game starts so bright in the first half, but just keeps getting greyer and greyer in the second, really made the consequences feel dire. I also cannot forget when I played it when I was older, had a child in game for the first time, and upon returning to them in the second half of the game I was greeted by their pleas to not leave them again. No other game ever made me feel the emotions Fable 2 was capable of making me feel.

[@digimon360]

If you wanted to go full magic (without time slow cheese) you could make use of the summon spell for free meat shields, the tornado spell, or the force push. I actually didn’t bother with time slow in my magic play through. If you didn’t you should really try the summon spell out. It doesn’t just summon the little dudes. It summons the recently deceased prioritizing the most powerful first. Having a squad of balverine ghosts is just easy mode.

[@dunnejos8423]

Little minor correction, If you play Fable: The Journey you learn the real reason why Theresa lived so long was because she tried to use The Spire and it didn't work as intended. She was using Sparrow and Lucien to rebuild and restore the mana of the Spire.

I love both 1 & 2. One was a ground-breaker and number two was probably the most rounded and well-thought-out sequals of all time. Didn't like three as it felt too limiting - plus I didn't like the setting. The only thing missing is an anniversary version of two. Surprised they haven't milked that cash cow yet.

[@dingle2987]

3 had issues, but I felt it did some good things. The Road to Rule system may have been limiting, but it made the combat more difficult. Especially on the PC versions hard mode. The co-op was also much better IMO. The story was also the best imo as it avoided being a copy while doing something new. Also they didn’t overdo the bloom lighting and the framerate felt more stable. Unfortunately, everything else is a step down.

Good work son, great video. Fable 2 is my favorite fable game, so many things I love about it. The setting, the jank, the choices being more gray and of course the spire sequence is by far one of my favorite “you won’t be back for a while” quests in a game. Loved seeing Lucian being midway through his quest just like you to see how far both have come but not quite ready to settle the score.

[@zackhicks5320]

I think my only issue with your thoughts on the good-evil system is how you’re always looking for a reason for something to happen. I think that’s the point of the evil play through in this game, you do evil things for no reason other than because you’re bad. There doesn’t need to be ulterior motives like trying to get power or revenge. There’s just evil people in the world, it’s how it works

[@dustinfritzfarr9529]

They think they are right in their ways and everyone else is just wrong. So if the dog is helping you out, it makes no sense for you to punish it. It makes much more sense (at least to me) to praised the dog, since it is helping furthering your(evil) goals.

A rich, greedy, pompous, uncaring, regal, Reaver type pistol only Skill hero in Fable 3 who's whole purpose in life is to live for himself and himself alone An all good Skill only rifle wielding Ranger who lived among the Gypsies in Fable 2 rescuing innocents from bandits and monsters An all evil bandit clan leader who didnt use weapons, only his fists and sheer strength to murder innocents, kill an endless army of guards and hulk out using specific strength enhancing magic in Fable 1 (this was by far the hardest playthrough) A Strength only Great hammer male Bandit leader who's moral system is mostly good but hes also corrupt, focusing on destroying other bandit clans and leaving innocents alone but hes a womanizer, alcoholic who jacks up the rent prices for max gold in Fable 2 An all good Will user in Fable 3 who lived among the nomads, living a simple life in the snowy mountains as the guardian of the mountains The character archetypes you can make in these games are pretty much endless, giving so much game replayability and adds challenge in each playthrough, its great fun!

I spent two hours trying to kill the final boss with my fire will that I had put all of my skills into only to realize they wanted me to use lightning when the game glitched and no one would continue with their lines. I didn't play again for a while. 😂

fable 2 is still my fav fable of the trilogy if the ever remake this game that would be sick!! 🤩😊 I hope they also keep the fable II mechanic that you can earn money even if your not online in the new fable form playground games 🙏

Fun fact: if you disabled the internet connection on the 360, went into the settings and changed the consoles time/date to the max year, that would factor into the offline time progression in Fable 2. In other words, you'd make ridiculous money from owned buildings. Simply reconnect to the internet once you're back into the game and then rinse and repeat for infinite money.

Fable II was my introduction into the Fable series so it holds a special place with me. Never changed my name since "Sparrow" since the name was mentioned in the cutscenes. I also hated that death was removed. Marrying Alex was also incredibly buggy in the game and she was IMPOSSIBLE to keep happy

Slaughter a town full of innocents? Absolutely, bring the hotdogs cause I'll burn them all down. Punish a dog?! Absolutely not, that's totally evil and nobody could do that.
