Going corrupt in Fable 2
I first wrote off Fable 2 because, well, the first game failed to deliver on promises and I expected as much of the second game. However, the more I saw people on my friends' list playing it, the more I got curious. Then I saw it pop up as Joystiq's Game of the Year and my interest was piqued enough. I chatted up Ludwig about it and he kind of brought me down off the fence. So I've been playing it for almost a week now.
First of all, my guy is incredibly corrupt. Like, I killed an entire village corrupt. He's gigantic, covered in scars, and has huge horns. I guess when you drive up the rent on every property you own, it catches up with you.
Finally, some beautiful Kingdom Under Fire II eye candy
One of the lesser known things about me is that the first two Kingdom Under Fire games are among my most favorite titles ever. Don't believe me? Peep my reviews of each of the first two games right here.
So, that image above? That's totally in-game. I just hope that Kingdom Under Fire II toes the line between RTS and hack-and-slash like the first two games in the series did so well. Want to see some video and more screens? Check out this post over at Joystiq.
