Fable 2

The first Fable was somewhat over-hyped but still delivered a fun fantasy RPG experience. Fable 2 takes a more serious turn, leaning even more into the weight of your decisions. Relationships are expanded heavily and it’s possible to have children who you have to care for (and even rescue if they run away from home). You have to get a job to earn money; different stats will influence your appearance upon leveling up; and depending on one’s actions, your appearance can become nicer or meaner. This can influence your dog’s appearance. In terms of presentation, combat and really immersing you in this fictional life, Fable 2 knocked it out of the park.
