The trailer for Fable 2 actually worries me, though I liked the first one and generally love RPG's. It just seems like it' still on those paths like the first one vs. free-roaming like Oblivion. Maybe it's not, but it looks like. And the environments just look so static to me. Pretty, but not much going on. The jury's out for me there.

What are you trying to say? That Fable 2 doesn't seem to become a free-roaming game? And free-roaming á la Oblivion is a great thing, right?

 Well I prefer it.  It's hard for me to really believe that I am a living breathing character in an RPG when I am forced to walk in a straight line through the woods.  Just my own preference.  That's why I said it worries ME and the jury's out for ME.  I certainly don't assume everyone would have the same opinion.

This thing worries me too. Instead of a straight line, there is supposed to be an arrow who points the right way to the goal in Fable 2, but still I'm afraid it will not be a free roaming experience.
