Am I the only one that thinks fable 2 story-line suck a lot .I mean the first one storyline was expect this one was week and predicable and never really got started.I was very disappointed especially wen i could of got gears of war 2

 

No, most people hated Fable 2's ending, I'd imagine. IMO, it's because they lack insight and understanding of what makes an ending good. Their expectations were challenged, and they hated it. These people are your usual popcorn movie entheusiast who loved Transformers and Spiderman 3. They also just go gaga for a happy ending, and anything that doesn't conform to their expectations, is frowned upon.

Newsday said this about Brotherhood:

Verne Gay:

"Brotherhood" is sharply written... Nevertheless, a heavy air of predictability hangs over "Brotherhood," which has a tendency to confirm viewer expectations instead of challenging them.

That's the real issue at the divide between reviewers and a general audience. A general audience wants fluff. They actually WANT their expectations to be met, and not challenged. Verne writes this as a negative, when in actuallity, audiences love shows that conform to their expectations. In a videogame, all you really are is an audience, if you throw all the gamer elitism aside, and Fable 2 didn't confirm expectations, it destroyed them, and that my friend...is great gaming.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
