the first was pretty good, you have access to melee, ranged, and spell attacks and can specialize in one or go into all three if you desire. Character customization is fairly deep(sans the female choice...which is coming in fable 2). my main gripe was boss fights(seemed way too easy) so hopefully the boss fights in fable 2 will be tougher and more imaginative than the first

The first one was alright. I borrowed my friends copy and I beat it pretty quickly.
Then I actually went and bought the extended version of the game when it came out and that was even more of a disappointment except for the final sword that you get. That thing ripped through everything!
I will give that the customization of your character was nice. Good or Evil and where you wanted to place your states.
Definitely not going to pick up the second one!

Fable 1 wasn't that good. My biggest peeve with that game was the fact that any time you got hit with a sword or sharp object, a fucking scar would appear where you got hit. So by the time i was an old guy, my face was like an old chopping board.

Did they get rid of lame stuff like that in Fable 2?

I heard they were going to do that but changed it so it wont do that because people didn't want ugly characters. Kinda sucks.
