Fable 2 - The 2022 Review
Vložit
- čas přidán 3. 03. 2022
- Continuing our Fable series replay, we return to Fable 2. Fable 2 is often the game that is thanked for making the franchise one of Xbox's pillars as its RPG x Life Sim elements spoke to many more on the 360 instead of the original Xbox counterpart. The question as always is: Have this beloved classic held up after almost 14 years?

They truly don’t make games like this anymore fable 2 was a amazing so many memories
Good, Fable 2 is a baby game.
@@bigpileofpuke name checks out...
That's a good thing. Fable 2 and 3 was vile
@@josephsaade526 can't even compare the two.
@@josephsaade526 3 sucked but 2 was good
Fable 2's title screen music just hits me in a way that so few other games can, it's truly amazing
Literally scrolled down to complement to music! It's wonderful and a little bit raw, not too bombastic, just something I'd love to hear in a tavern or something.
have to agree in love with it
I mean dying light lmao
MAGICAL
the music they made for the game was so amazing.
I can’t explain fable 2 but it marks possibly the biggest game from my childhood.
It’s nostalgia is something I simply cannot describe.
It invokes so much raw emotion in me and for the most part I can’t even explain why. This is coming from someone who is typically quite stoic.
This may be dark for some but I even contemplate the bower lake theme for my own funeral music.
The game is truly magical
Summed my thoughts up perfectly tbh, the entire series has a charm to it that is unique and it makes the game so incredibly addictive, I must've beaten Fable I 10 times and Fable II over 20 and Fable III more than 5
I love these games, flaws and all.
I literally couldn't get enough of the fable games I even got my wife to play through one and two
Well said
I actually hooked up the Xbox 360 in my bedroom to play this game again. My oldest daughter (she's 20) saw me playing, and wanted to create her own character to play. I haven't been able to play again since..... She's always on it. 😂
i’m about to turn 20 and i’ve been playing this game since i was little glad to see your daughter loving it !!!
Game is amazing asf 🔥🔥 first played it in 09, the quality is forever there 🙌💯
Looks sharper and runs better on the Xbox series X and S
My dad played this game when I was a young child but didn't keep playing it. His favorite was always Fallout 3. But the second he let me get my hands on that controller it was my game from that point on. I played it every single day was a kid. My mom had to take it away from me or else I wouldn't eat dinner because I was too busy blacksmithing to grind for money lol. Fable 2 has always been my favorite game ever. I'm 18 now and it's still my favorite. I was so obsessed with it as a kid and to this day I still am. One of my fondest memories is of 5th grade where we got to pick any topic for a compare and contrast essay and I chose Fable 2 vs Fable 3. My teacher liked it so much she made me read it in front of the whole class and everyone found out how much of a video game nerd I am lol. I got super passionate about Rose's death in front of the class and I nearly cried while preaching about how much of a dick Lucien is 😂
Anxiety hit me like a truck for the first time ever early December 2020, a bit after I started to replay Fable 2 again. Maaan thank god for this game at that time. Helped keep me grounded at a time when I felt so much fear for seemingly no reason
Interesting - can you expand?
I am also anxiety patient games help a lot, I give you a little advice about anxiety, If your anxiety is too strong, do NOT drink any cup of tea, coffee or coke! And eat a lot of yoghurt, it gives you sleep and also relaxation.
I also used to have terrible anxiety, it was so bad that I even broke up with my gf because I couldn’t handle it. Jesus took all my anxieties away and gave me peace, also video games and working out helps.
Hope you are doing better now champ. I've had similar challenges and listening to Fable 1 OST makes me calm down
@@OghuzKhaghan agree. caffine makes anxiety way worse
Fable 2 was the first game I got for my Xbox 360. Glad you hit me with the nostalgia. Awesome game.
Ditto
The game was my summer of 2010. I spent the whole summer playing this game and getting all the achievements. Best summer of my life in terms of gaming!
Fable 2 is forever a game that will live on in my memories
I loved this game so much when it came out. Haven't played it since. Have been debating replaying Fable 2 for a while.
Definitely worth it! I just replayed for the first time in a long time and ran into things I missed. I think I appreciate the game more now that I’m older
do it!!
I replayed back in July 2021 on the xbox series S in 1440p and the game still holds up fantastically and is a real blast to play. Absolutely give it a go again. Especially because with any luck, playground games will show off the brand new fable this year.
@@JudeTheCZcamsPoopersubscribe It’s on Game Pass!
@@KellyKMc I played All of them on gamepass last year :). Such amazing games.
Played Fable Anniversary and instantly bought Fable 2. Haven’t gotten around to cracking it open with all of the recent game releases but MAN this has me excited lmao
This game blew my mind when I was a kid. So much to do, your decisions had long lasting impact on the world, the lore was interesting and unique! I even liked the 3rd fable lol very excited for the new game whenever it may come
I personally believe they will show off the new fable at e3 this year. I hope I am correct I have been waiting very patiently since they announced it in 2020 and hope they show something this year.
@@JudeTheCZcamsPoopersubscribeyou were correct :)))
@@Viflo obviously e3 didn't happen but they did show it and I am excited. I hope they can show another trailer or some sort of update again this year in June.
Best game in the series in my opinion. Badly need a pc port as well
You can play it on cloud gaming from Microsoft cloud gaming
@@amrasculnamo7784 Does it play well? I'm planning on trying xcloud soon.
@ there is slight lag but nothing that stopped me from beating fable 2 im playing fable 3 right now
@@amrasculnamo7784 nice, hopefully I can make it work too, I wanted to play it for more than a decade lol
@ good luck ! Hope you have a fantastic time if you do
Fable II is one of my favorite games and holds a special place in my heart. The exploration, the secrets, the music... it made me fall in love with gaming.
I want them to hurry up and give us the new fable
I hope they gave fable 1 a good playthrough, and understand what people want out of a fable game. I feel like the series got worse with both sequels, and I hope that trend doesn't continue.
I personally believe they'll have a gameplay demo to show us this E3
It will probably be garbage just like most current games. Games are not what they were it's all about money now.
Facts, man.
I don't want them to hurry up, I want them to take their time and make the best Fable game they can
I really hope Playground embraces that Dickensian Christmas Carol art style that the older games had. It would suffer from a photorealistic reimagining. Keep that style, open the world and release around Xmas and it should do well.
No lie I recently purchased Fable II and III from the Microsoft store last month and MAN I'm glad I did...
This was the first game I played when we bought an Xbox 360 (which also was my first console when I got 12 yo, used to play a few games on my parents' computer before). I'm really attached to it and although I guess nostalgia plays out, thus disregarding some of its bad aspects, I really love that game.
I've been going back to it from time to time when I get hold of my 360 and it's always pure pleasure. There's something really appealing about Albion's universe which really is the definition of fantasy, with its haunting music and visuals (the lighting in this game) along with the very british humour. I really hope I can get back that feeling if they actually do a game in the next few years, I was sad to hear that lionhead went bankrupt back then.
Why Fable 1 n 3 have a 60fps update on the Series X but not 2 is beyond me.
Yeah I really wish they would do it. I know they're kinda done with the FPS Boost, but who knows. Maybe one day.
Fable 2 didn't have a pc port. So the physics and everything was tied to the 30fps frame cap. People on emulators have tried to run it at higher framerates and it just completely breaks the game.
Miss this game. I’ll never forget when I got the Daichi Katana on my first play through. Good memories.
Fable 2 was the first gaming experience I remember. I can see it now. Me sitting by my older cousin watching him play, and eventually letting me try. About a year later, i got my own 360 and it was the first game i asked for. Not long after that fable 3 came out. And i got to experience that on my own. Man those were the days!!
I was a little surprised the guns didn't get a mention in this review. They were a real game changer for me. I wasn't impressed when I heard they'd be coming, but they were beautiful, deadly & really fun to use thanks to the detailed aiming mechanic. Plus, they had the best sound of any game of that era. The way they'd crack & echo thru the mountains & reverberate in dungeons & caverns was so sweet.
Also, you didn't have to max out all your skills if you didn't want to. This not only changed your individual play style, but radically changed your character's physical appearance. My gunslinger build was a leggy, elegant femme-fatale & my mage looked like a being of pure light.
One reason dogs are so omni-present in modern games is because of Fable 2. My dog was my best friend in that game, for good reason. My whiney wives & cherubs never stood a chance. ;)
Fable 2 is so fantastic. I want a port of it on PC so badly man. One of those cases where I am here willing to throw money at microsfot if it was just on Steam but they just are still not that great at PC support no matter how much they talk. I am really hoping they they remaster the trilogy and give it some love in time for Playgrounds Fable
I've seen people on the Fable reddit (I'm weird, I know) running Fable II on PC. I think if you buy Gamepass Ultimate you can use their cloud gaming shit to play it on a PC.
Though, I too am praying for a remaster. I desperately want Fable 3 to get a remaster. Everyone hates it, but I can't help but love the game. Genuinely the only steampunk-esque RPG I've ever played, and I adored it.
@@rookiedrifter4273 Fable 3 would benefit greatly from a remaster. You don't need to tweak anything too major to solve some of the issues in the game (add in a health bar, warning before the 121 days skips to day of the attack, etc) and maybe up the saturation on the colors too because Fable 3 looks so washed out at times.
Im surprised you didn’t delve more into the music, honestly this game was the height for the music, the battle themes slapped, the ambient tracks were so distinct and whimsical
the fable series is a typical example of developers trying to fix what isnt broken, Netherealm studios are going through the same thing right now with mortal kombat, the constant rewriting of their lore and lack of legacy fighting mechanics is hurting their brand but still they feel the need to reinvent the wheel every sequel - in regards to fable, each sequel got progressively worse after the first, I still remember the impact the first game had on me as a child, I had never played a choice based adventure game like that before where my actions shaped the character, world and its people and I have never been able reach that level of immersion again all 20 years later, games like Red Dead Redemption, Elder Scrolls Oblivion and recently Cyberpunk 2077 game close because of their unique experiences but Fable was like nothing I had ever played before, it blew me away and still to this day no game has come remotely close to doing fantasy adventure choice based RPG as well other than Baldurs Gate 3but BG3 is more of an MMO than RPG
I love so much about Fable 2. I think my favorite part is that, somewhere, you get to read thar the guild master from Fable was found dead with the words "Your health is low" carved into his skin.
To be honest, Fable 2 was my first fable and it was amazing! Beautiful and peaceful! When I was a young teenager I often get scared at the Hollowmen but then I remember it was in the game. I love it even tho it's an old game! Great video tho, keep up the amazing work! You should play the DLC for this game and fable 3! Highly recommend it!
wow forgot how much i loved this game as a kid man. watching the gameplay and cutscenes on here just blasted me back wow
I need to go back and replay all the fable games before 4
Fable 2 was my first fable game. it is for sure the best one in the franchise.
Randomly had the urge to play this game after last playing it in 2008/9 and I was 10 years old. 23 now and this game is stands the test of time! My favorite in the series
Imagine this title on PC with mods
That intro though. We need more of this CHAOTIC ENERGY Matty.
Fable 2 is a pure masterpiece i replayed it few months ago it was so cool
Fable 2 is SOOOOO good, I talk about it more than I probably should but I want more people to appreciate it. I bought a Series S just to play it again.
Forever love Fable
I remember playing Fable 2 when my 360 Red Ringed on me. Great game and franchise though. I'm glad MS has since gotten their act together with their hardware.
Best Fable.
I'd buy it again if it were made available on PC.
Fable 2 is my favorite fable game..but yes it has a few over sight..the co-op exp oversight basically allows you to max out your character after 1 min of play...it's ridiculous
It sucks this isn't natively on PC..I would buy a fable 1 2 and 3 bundle on steam ASAP.
Man I miss this game I want to have a remaster for PC
For fucking real.
This is one of my favorite games ever, probably top 5. Can't wait to watch the video this evening!
MrMattyPlays, This is fantastic! I subscribed right away!
Fable 2 is a game ive completed many times and still play to this day. I love visiting my Serenity Homestead and Bower lake. Ive given Millions away to new starters along side some mission items like Regal Purple dye or Crucible nuts. Its simply amazing game. In comparison i completed Fable 3 once.
Sorry that I don't comment enough but love these reviews where you go back on cool games, replay them and review them again. Agree with you on Fable 2. Great gameplay with not so great story choices but a really cool and for me addictive economy system taking over Albion
The demon doors were my favorite thing about this game. Winter lodge was creepy and beautiful. "oh, I wonder if I can own this cabin!? FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF"
To me as somebody who grew up on fable 1
The hype leading up to fable 2 was amazing, Granted PM lied and promised a game 30 yrs ahead of its time, he infact delivered a game 15 years ahead of its time
It's fantastic, if you dig deep you really can do anything
I tried fable 1 when I was younger and it was a clunky ass x and y spam sim
If I give the the series another shot and it sucks (with me, having more experience and struggling way less with objectives) I will come back and sauté your balls.
@@Medroizz LMAO like a year ago I went to try Fable Anniversary and then in the beginning of the game I beat that guy in a race after trying like 30 times and then the game didn't save so I quit and vowed to never play it again because my beloved Fable 2 would never do that to me 😂😤
There is certainly NOT a game like Fable…likely ever. Fable is such a unique and long loved experience that I feel like it’s hard to replicate. Something about the soundtrack of Fable 2 instantly transports me into the best kind of happy nostalgia. I’m so so so nervous for the new Fable because I fear it won’t be anything like the original 🥲
I played Fable 2 and 3. I don't think I ever played the first. Fable 3 was ahead of its time. You could buy and sell property, the reputation system was amazing, the music was really good, you could start a family, etc.
This is really weird. I was just playing Fable 2 a couple hours ago for the first time in a year and then this video shows up. What a coincidence.
I just realized my mentor is my sister from the first game Theresa. Shes blind and everything
I love fable 2, it was great and the gameplay is unmatched. But it's insane how the last part of the game wasn't a boss fight and as epic as Jack of Blades was. Fable 1 will forever be my favorite.
That reminds me, I need to collect my rent from half of Albion. I wonder how much money I'll be getting after about three years....
My noblewoman wife might be happy to see me too, lol.
I love seeing people currently reviewing games from the 360/PS3 era for me it was the best generation of video games when it comes to games.
Loved this back on the Xbox360 days. I really hoped to see the Fable Anniversary Collection rumored to come out soon (twitter thing about 🐔).
But anyways I'll just play the backcompat version 😁
title theme is another version of the song that would play inside the demon doors. super nostalgic
Fable 2 is a masterpiece imo 💕🥰 can't wait to play it again getting a Xbox series S soon 💯
Isn't Teresa also part of the original bloodline I mean she the original hero sister right
Yes
fable 1 and 2 changed the game, glad i played 1 before 2 dropped so i could truly appreciate how crazy it is to deliver that much with that many expectations
Ahh fable 2 brings back good memories
What a nice coincidence. I just got done playing the first one for the first time ever. And was looking into part 2! Nice video bud
I remember Fable 2 being fun af. I tried playing a bit of it late last year.
Times were simpler and I guess I was more lenient back in 2009 when I first played it 😅 I can still find enjoyment in however.
Can't wait for your thoughts on 3, played that to completion last year as well and had some good fun. Not as much as I did back in 2010, but I was mostly coasting on nostalgia in that playthrough.
I just finished all 3 since January first. I hear nothing good about 2 or 3, but I've loved them. Easier than I remember, but fun!
@@EdwardLuce175I think the people who hate 2 probably loved the first and got over hyped for 2.
@@Thebossatmserfgsd probably. I loved the first and was initially disappointed in the 2nd until my 2nd playthrough
Just beat the 3 games again recently, and this one is just so amazing. A classic rpg and one of my favorite
I just recently played and completed this for the first time last month.
I’ve never played fable, should I play them before the new one comes out?
Looks surprisingly good on the series x.
The best thing about fable 2 is the life simulator and the writing, this was back in a time where people knew how to write jokes and stereotyping the british was ok, I hope they keep the humor going forward and the life simulator, I also hope they don't make the game world too unnecessarily big, fable's world was always condense but so much richer for it.
I replayed fable 2 12x the first year it was out. I was mildly obsessed
I dont know how young I was but I was young as shit I bought it cause I didnt have enough for fable 3 at the time and I loved it spent days playing when I didnt have to go to school
It's better than 3 so you got lucky
Still waiting for Fable 2 PC edition.
I started playing these games at Fable 2 and I loved the game I still re play it once a year now in 2023 but in highschool someone said to me the first one is miles better so I bought fable tlc and not wrong that is one of my all-time favourite games even better then a game I loved so much I non stop played these games for years every choice bad or good until I got to fable 3 and it wasn't a bad game but it wasn't really good for me didn't enjoy the industrial age of fable the story and the enemies just didn't feel the same but still a great trilogy of games
That Commander still fuqs me up! Thank you for making this!!!!!! From a fellow Fable fan
The game has lots to offer. Certian chain quests continue after the main story is done.
What are you playing this on to have such minium motion blur, or what tv settings is your xbox using
I remember buying Fable 2 but didn’t play much cuz I was still in Fallout 3 world and then went over to Wrath of the Lich King release
This game will always be one of my top 5 games
What I love about fable is the Color. So much beauty
i started this game today (never played mmo or anything like this in my life) AND I LOVE IT !!!
Probably a hot take but I'm loving this game so far. Even more than oblivion. Yes, hot take like I said. But I love how easy flowing this game is. I'm almost never confused, I always know where to go etc. whereas in a game like oblivion, I almost always felt confused. Be it quests, story wise etc. unless I did my own research. And there's so much freedom in this game. There's several jobs where you can literally make as much money as you want, buy as many houses/businesses as you want, marry a bunch of people etc. And the quests for the most part have been pretty entertaining. Great game this far.
It really really sucks that Fable 2 and 3 are locked on backwards compat. It is available on cloud but damn is input lag so bad it made it unplayable. We just need digital copies of these games. They need to be rereleased! They just aren't available.
Yep that intro hits different, but I know why I love it so much, it’s basically the same as new Vegas
What the hell Microsoft. Remake, remaster, rerelease this series. It’s your final fantasy for goodness sake
Fable 2 is one of the best games ever made
As much as I absolutely love Fable 1, Fable 2 is my jam. I find it a bit more Unique in its setting than Fable 1. Or more like it actually evolved and grew the setting to be something more than just 'another medieval fantasy setting'. The kind of 15th-18th century vibe where you have Guns as well as Sword and Sorcery was really cool and something you didn't see that much back then.
Fable 1 still has the best story and the best villain.
But Fable 2 has the best setting. And the best gameplay.
Fable 3 did not do it for me at all.
Surprisingly the castle looks the same even after millions of years
what do you expect from the new fable ?
Fable 2 is one of my top 5
I've played it a dozen times or more. It's a masterpiece.
Fable and Fable 3 are wonderful of course, I think Fable 3 gets a lot of undue hate, (perhaps some due) but Fable 2 is just so good.
Excellent video, truly. Started watching when you were pissed about Elden ring not being released 😂 we are the same age and have played the same games as kids lol
Fable 2 brings back good memories.
I really hope the original Fable Trilogy gets remastered
I hope so just so I can actually get all of the achievements. In the 360 versions I can't get anything that requires multiplayer.
the new vegas cameo was absolutely fantastic 😂
Persona 3 2022 review when Matty? :)
i play through fable 2 and 3 once a year i only played fable 1 for the first time last year. i only can hope 4 will be as good as 2
There's an exploit with the multiplayer exp, before leaving the cave.
Max lvl, can craft if buff, tall, etc
I got a buddy on xbox to try fable 2. He played it and said wtf combat etc is ass. I said fable is about the sand box etc. So he played it again and payed more attention to the sandbox like getting houses wives and so on and he said yo this is fucking awesome x"D
fable 2's title music is amazing
Great video. When will the triangle strategy review be out?
Fav game in series
I wanna start playing fable, do i need to start with the 1st fable release? Or can i just start at the latest game
You can start any we're but I say it's best to start with fable 2
Cool review. Definitely looking forward to the new Fable. They should have used you on the cover of AC Valhalla. Never would have guessed you'd behave like Paulie in Goodfellas. Good for you. Lol, multiple wives and they can fight each other? That's hysterical. Also, that theme you showcased from the score, very magical. Looking forward to your Fable 3 review. Awesome video dude. Loved that theme.
This game introduced me to storytelling on videogames. This game impacted on gaming and more and I dream on it for a PC port. No remaster or anything, just want to play it again.
You can play it with Xbox Gamepass on PC as a Cloud-Stream.
hey yall know Christopher nolan's brother, supposed to direct the fallout tv show, told gameinformer posted about it that its supposed to start fimling gets me hyped fr
