crumas2, I'm with you, since I've picked up my copy of Fable 2 on launch day. I've dedicate as much time as I can to the game, but I made the mistake of getting my wife motivated about playing the game, and she's not a gamer, and always whines about me spending too much time playing WOW and other game...lol...now she's ABSOLUTLELY HOOKED on Fable 2...and i mean HOOKED. The reason is for this very fact...you feel like you're living in the game, and not just going around questing and killing monsters. She's trying to own everything and she'll probably log more hours in Albion then me.
Back to my gaming in Fable 2, I'm trying to get nearly maxed by the end of the game. I'm not al that interested in some epic battle to kill the final boss, as I'm more interested in the story telling aspect, so my sense of accomplishment will be in the fringe achievements, like Blacksmith and Woodcutter. Also in getting to be the leader of Albion is an achievement I NEED by the end of this game. I'm not sure how Fable 2 ends, but i DO know that DLC looks to be rip for this game, and I don't me just the minor addition, but instead a massive $20-30 DLC patch to extend the game's life thru 2009. I'd love to see it for next year this time, with some minor additions in the meantime. Fable 2 was hyped, and it delivered 110% for my expectations.
