Right now i'm very confused about which one I should get. Can you guys help me?

Here's some info that may help you help me...
-I use an Xbox 360.
-I loved the Mass Effect games a bit more than any sane man should.
-I hate repetative scenery and repetativity in general.
-I always think Medieval RPGs aren't Medieval RPGs without big scary dragons and stuff.
-I like more epic, serious plots in games without ridiculous amounts of humour.

So should I get Fable II or Dragon Age: Origins?

your post suggest you would be better suited to DA:O, fable is highly humorous and very rarely takes itself seriously, also, it has no Dragons and is more of an RPG lite- i enjoyed, but from the sound of it you may not

hope that helps

On the Xbox 360 I would still pick Dragon Age Origins over Fable 2.



It fits your bullet points WAY more than Fable 2 does.

fable two is good the first time you play it, but you finish it in like 3 hours and then it's impossible to play again without being bored.

Origins has some length to it and plays well with good replayability

Fable II: You get a stupid dog, and you get to play minigames like chicken kicking and pub gambling! Also, all the choices you make have almost no effect in game.



Dragon Age: Origins: Your dog can tank as well as most humans in your party. There are no minigames. Most puzzles can be avoided by killing something. The big scary dragon has big ugly backup. "Kill him" is a frequent conversation option and it works every time. Your choices have a slight effect on the world, without giving you a stupid halo or flies around your head. But if you chose to let people die, other people will know about it and remember that it happened and treat you accordingly. Also, if you cheat on your Significant Other in game, you will hear about it. At length. Be ready for it. :D

Not true, if anything your choices have way more of an effect than they do in DA.

The dog was awesome in Fable 2!! If you want fable two still (then your wrong) then you should wait for fable 3 to come out and get that...

Fable 2....High on gimmicks short on game play, and the less said about the story the better. Typical of Molynieux.



DA:O much better for all.

Not sure if I agree.  Certainly more effect on the world around you in terms of how people react.  But in terms of the plot.....DA choices had bigger impact.

Fable 2: Massacred a town? Destroyed a hundred lives? Never mind! Just dress well and fart a dozen times and all will be forgiven.

Fable I maybe.... and just maybe can be compared to the awesomeness that is Dragon Age... Fable II? It is not even funny.

Yep Fable 1 is far superior to 2.  But still no where on the same level that is DA:O.

I'm going to have to say Fable II. Dragon Age Origins is a great game but if you're going to play it you should upgrade your PC and play it on that platform instead.



Fable II is a terrific, wonderful game with lots of personality, clever humor, and a great world to explore at your leisure.

Fable II has it's issues, namely a fairly weak, cliched storyline and a number of technical issues but overall it is a great game. A superior followup to it's predecessor and one of the Xbox360's best games.

I don't see what the big issue is. Busomjack was merely stating his opinion and offering a suggestion.
So he likes Fable II more than Dragon Age Origins, or at least only when comparing the Xbox360 version. This isn't the Fable II bashing or Dragon Age Origins worship thread after all.  You shouldn't expect everyone's opinion to fall in line with yours.

Fable 2 is good at its core but it is just covered in nonsensical drivel that makes the game a silly chore. I will be different than the rest here because I did not like the first Fable at all, but I liked Fable 2 a bit. I'd give it a 7.5



There are better Zelda clones out there. Beyond Good and Evil, Mega Man Legends, Fable tries a whole lot but most of it doesn't add anything to the experience. And the core experience itself is rather light.

I enjoyed Fable 2, but it dose get boring after 2 plus play throughs.



But from what you discribed it sounds like Fable 2 is not the game for you. It's very repeditive.

Perhaps you could convey your opinion in a better fashion?  You know, like actually explaining why you dissagree with him rather than insulting him?  Lets try to keep the discussion serious here, ok?

Lets not and say we did.



Anyway, as Different ME is from DA mechanically, the setup isn't really that detached as BIoware does re-use some of their setups. However the second ME is a bit different in its setup.

Dragon Age. Fable 2 is a very boring, bland and short RPG. Nothing about Fable is extraordinary, it is just a very juvenile 10 hour action/adventure rpg. Rent Fable, Buy Dragon Age 8)
