Best Fable in my opinion. My favorite.

PC release when?

What they should have is that if you play as a boy you play as Sparrow, but if you play as a girl you play as Rose.

Very much the best fable.

No PC release is a bummer.

Love this game. Should have been on PC instead of that shitfest 3.

Nah. They said they cut out the minimap after realising the entirety of the first game could be played by looking at the minimap instead of what was on screen, and they didn't want that in the sequel. Glowing trails and dog was great for making you actually explore the world.
>>
>>322062445
The game needs neither and instead a separate map screen. I'm not talking about that Sanctuary bullshit either.
>>
Why don't they make fun RPGs like this anymore?

They're either first person open world, hardcore jrpg or hardcore wrpgs now...

Fable Legends looks like shit and isn't like the others so I don't want to hear about that.
>>
>Glowing trail tells you exactly where to go in the worst example of handholding probably ever
>Clothes don't matter outside of how much people want to fuck you Which by time you get your fame up is 100% anyway

>Choices are either complete edgelord or moralfag with no sense of self

Still far better than 3.
>>
>>322062626
For me it had the opposite effect I spent all my time looking at the trail and never just stopping to look around. The minimap in the first one always let me know where I was but I was paying attention to the world around me.

To be fair you can turn the glowing trail off or on at any point. I personally liked it, it always led you to your current objective, which made exploring a little more fun because you never had to worry about getting lost and never knowing where to go.

Honestly Fable 2 is one of my favourite games from the 7th gen. You'll get people who say the first one or lost chapters is better, but they aren't; that's just salty mustards. It is strange how the second game never got a PC release though, considering the other two did. MS are a bit weird with what they keep exclusive to the Xbox and what they choose to release on the PC.

I have a weird issue with Fable 3 where the framerate dips down to 30 from 60 every 5 minutes or so. Alt-tabbing out and back in to the game fixes it for another 5 minutes, when the weird FPS dip comes back.

It is annoying as shit, and combined with the fact that Fable 3 is simply not that enjoyable at all I've never been able to play past 5 hours of that mess.

Does anyone have the same issue or a possible explanation? Googling my problem yielded little results. Although my best guess is a weird memory leak issue.

Oh yeah to add to this post, I had a 100% complete save on Fable 2. DLC and everything. Then about a year ago my Xbox 360's hard drive from 2007 shit out on me. I need to look into some way of recovering the data I had so many game saves. Really wish I would have backed my saves up.

If you are reading this and do not have your Xbox 360 HDD saves backed up please go do it now. The hard drives die just like PC hard drives.

I'm surprised they still haven't released 2 for pc yet. It's pretty retarded to release the first and third game of a series on pc, but never the second.

What a great game. Only to be massively let down by fable 3. I made the mistake of hearing Peter Molyneux sweet sweet promises about being a true king. Making decisions for the kingdom every day. Going on a full out war with your kingdom. I still loved the game because you could see the lands of Albion progress through time. There was so much potential just straight up missing from it sadly.

in short? No. It stripped away a fucktonne of features from 2, put in a bullshit timelimit before your kingdom gets fucke din the ass, and the quests are just dull and uninspired.

Nah, the spell/mana system in 1 was just better and flourishes didn't give you i-frames. Literally the gameplay was better in 1. In 2 you had to wait until you can fully cast a top tier spell. If an enemy was close, all you had to do was just flourish away.
