First Game
Review:
Fable 2 *Spoilers*
Fable 2 *Spoilers*
Oh,
yes! Fable 2. One of the few video games that sparked my love for adventure,
and fighting. I can’t exactly straight out tell you that it’s good or bad. But,
I can explain my reasoning.
The game starts with your character walking with your sister. You come across a
stand selling a music box. (That music box will be referenced throughout the
game.) Any way you meet a mysterious lady telling you to buy the box. You get
the money, and wish to live in the castle. But, that doesn't turn out good, and
your sister dies.
Oh dear. Your goal throughout the game is find the other 3 heroes and get
revenge on the man who killed your sister. Lucien. He alone, has wronged every
one of the heroes. The Mysterious lady promises their sweet revenge on him.
I
have to say, I love the story and plot altogether. But, I disliked the ending.
Usually, you end a game off with something that leaves the audience breathless.
Something that makes the viewer’s speechless. Astonished! But the ending was,
you soil Lucien’s plans, and get ‘em good. That’s it. It kind of makes me sad.
You have to work so hard to even get there. And when you do, it disappoints you
greatly.
Enough about the ending though! The
middle, the actual story is where it’s at. The adventures are great. The
feeling of accomplishment when you level up a skill. The sweet fighting in the
Crucible, just for the revenge. The finding secrets and treasure. And the love
you find, and family you create. It’s simply wonderful.
Beside from the actual story, you can go on
side quests. Usually just for money and experience. Each have a significant way
of getting the player more involved each time. Some side quest are needed to
move on in the actual game. Heck! You don’t even have to do those! But, it
usually makes the game even harder, more so than it already is. Without money that is...
Over all if I were to give this game a score, it would be 8/10.
I highly suggest this game! Especially if you love fantasy, adventure.
