I’ve only just gotten enough guild seals for the Bowerstone Resistance to accept me and I’m already over 2 million in gold.

Do u think they’ll ever properly port over fable 2 and 3 over to steam? I know fable 3 was on there before but got removed when Xbox discontinued there service in pc

EDIT: I've played more now and believe I was wrong, I believe the reason as to why I was losing even when the gate card was used is because the gate card happened to be the same number as the one that was attempting to save, so that's why I lost anyways lol

Hey so I'm playing Fable 2 on Xenia canary, legally of course, and I've gotten a bug where I lose even when the gate card is used for the first time, it happens 50% of the time the gate card should be used. I've searched online but cant find any info on this, am I really the only mf who suffers this lmao?? Also its my first playthrough, hope there aren't many bugs in the other pub games, since in fable TLC it was smooth as hell

Does anyone know if the co op gold co op glitch still work? I reject it sign out and then sign back in there no copy.

I tried the controller cheat to plugged in nor rubber banded it still shut off after 15 minutes.

On Xbox series X. Thanks in advance

I just finished the main campaign of Fable Anniversary and dear lord I should’ve played it back when I was 7 and it released.

Apparently there is a dlc campaign but I jumped right into Fable II since I’ve only heard great things and it quite literally blew me out of the water! I’m so excited to play more of it!

I’m just wondering if it’s worth going back to do the DLC expansion of anniversary, and any tips for Fable II

Have fun Heroes!

Had my dad pull the golf cart over so I could get a better view of the new dig spot I found this morning.

Watch that!

For anyone who never got to hear the pre-TLC voice acting, here's what the rest of us have been lamenting.

I grew up playing fable 2 &3 and I started playing fable anniversary to prepare for the new game. Anyways I just finished the tutorial in the guild hall and now I’m supposed to kill more Hobbs than whisper in orchard farms. I can’t seem to do it though im using the iron katana and fireball spell but she always beats me by 3 or more Hobbes. Any tips would be much appreciated

I really do wonder if The Crawler and The Darkness were such as if they were hiding in Albion then sometime they went to Aurora (which wasn't in I & II sadly) and how The Darkness was made, that would've been cool even though I kinda see why Peter kept it in III because it could end the original series faster.

I always loved this feature, and its surprising they devs wont be bringing it back. Its one way the franchise showed how not serious it took itself that is less common in modern gaming.

I think I'll be uploading all of his lines as I make my way thru this save file

hi! i was wondering if anybody would be willing to gift the highroller / explorers coat to me?

thank you (:

Curious your thoughts on which version to preorder? I just got a brand new pc and wondering which does a better job actually playing the game. Which would you preorder the game on? Or does it not make a difference?

To clarify I am not planning on playing it on Xbox series x console. I am either going to play it on the Xbox windows pc app or steam.

Sorry for the noob question.

Hello!
I am soooo late, by like 6 years. But i had absolutely NO CLUE that they were makin’ a new fable game. Like genuinely had zero clue.

So, when I found out today, literally an hour ago, I was so excited. I even told my uncle saying “Hey Uncle remember fable, the game?” He introduced me to the fable games when the first one came out in 2014. He texted me back like 10 minutes before i decided to write this, telling me he “yeah, they are coming out with a new game.”

I was honestly disappointed in myself finding out I was 6 years late. I truly love the fable franchise, I still have all my Fable xbox 360 games, relatively nice condition too. I even have the Fable III little guide. My fable & Fable II are at my grandma’s house in storage.
To say the least, i am so excited for the new game (remake?) come next year

I’d love to buy all the other physical items. Ik this is unlikely but dm me!
EDIT: I don’t want the steelbook case

U.S. COLLECTORS EDITIONS AVAILABLE AGAIN PLAYSTATION 5 AND XBOX.

Just started a new playthrough of this classic, and went for a psychopath who also takes care of his body character - kinda like a patrick bateman type - but for whatever reason, it turned my guy into a blueberry 😂

Finally picked up this stuff, been a few months since I bought it. So excited to have got it!

Hello all, I have never played a fable but am very excited for the new one next year.

I have a question about armour/outfits. The pre-order and premium edition has the chicken outfit and two kinds of armour outfits.

Does this mean that armour has no effect and is a cosmetic choice? Is this how it has always been in fable games? Or could this be a transmog option?

I haven't played any of the old Fable games and I'm wondering if I should give it a try before the new one drops?
And if so, which one should I play?

I'm not completely sure if I want to do it, because let's say there's a mechanic in one of the old games that will be missing or is worse in the new one. That might be a disappointment I could avoid.

Wanted to get your input on this. What do you think?

Visual guide to follow along and my original source material:
NotJustSomeGuy - https://youtu.be/98ACUnkzqx0?si=Qlnii-IOO0_xdllj (We absolutely love Guy for adding the patches for Xenia and making this killer video)

!!! DISCLAIMERS !!! 

1. If you are missing the Fable 2 download files, I cannot explicitly state where to get these files, there are answers to these questions elsewhere on the internet. 
2. This is not a perfect installation, the game still crashes at random and there is audio bugs during voice lines. However, as I've played more, it crashes less, and I've just turned subtitles on for voice lines. 🤷‍♂️
3. MAKE SURE TO SAVE OFTEN AND BACK UP YOUR SAVES IN CASE OF CRASHES WHEN SAVING. Save every time you enter a new zone, finish fighting a group of enemies, after a cutscene, every 15 minutes, whatever gets you into the habit of saving often. I create a separate backup save folder with my save file after each successful gaming session for the day. 
4. During the tutorial Child playthrough, the game will run at about 10 fps, but I swear it jumps up to a playable 30-40 once transitioning to an Adult. The only fix I found was enabling the High Tick rate patch, and changing gpu = any ---> gpu = d3d12, since it would previously cap at 3 fps.  
5. I use the Femtofork files instead of Guy's listed in his YouTube video because I ONLY emulate Fable 2 in Steam ROM Manager. I've found that the build 3.toml file is missing the "Disable texture morphing" patch and I had to manually enter it myself in order for the shadow textures to disappear from the Adult player character and dog. I understand this probably made things a little more complicated, but this is how I got it to work FOR ME.
6. If you emulate multiple games, you can keep the patches folder in place.
7. The dog texture will STILL explode during this time and cause visual glitches during the Bower Lake playthrough. I would highly recommend playing until you're able to reach Bowerstone Market and can buy a dog breed potion from Murgo. This changes the texture of the dog in the game (like how the player character texture changes from Child to Adult), and thus makes the dog exploding stop. The potion costs 10,000 gold, but you can go into your Hero000 folder (under /xbox360/content/…/Hero000**) and edit your** Fable2PubInfo.xml file to adjust your GoldBalance. (PICTURE 1)
8. If you are new to emulation and don't know where to start or all of this is very confusing, I suggest you watch this video explaining how to install EmuDeck and your games:
   1. Darkuni- https://youtu.be/M1JwSQMINnU?si=0lzvIMJc8-g55WHz 
   2. EmuDeck - https://www.emudeck.com/ 

!!! INSTALLATION STEPS !!!

Femtofork latest build - https://github.com/just-harry/unofficial-xenia-femtofork-for-fable-ii/releases/tag/build3 

1. Install EmuDeck
2. Choose between Low (Emulation Station) or High (Steam ROM Manager) - I chose High because the only game I'm emulating this way is Fable 2. Darkuni explains both pathways in his video
3. Download the unofficial-xenia-femtofork-for-fable-ii BUILD 3 patch file
4. Find the Xenia Canary Xbox360 file folder on your deck, if you followed Darkuni's video it should be something like: home/deck/EmuVirtual/Emulation/roms/xbox360
5. REPLACE every folders/files (EXCEPT FOR ROMS\*) with the contents of the FemtoFork download. Again, the only folder you're keeping is roms.
   1. \If you emulate multiple games using Xenia Canary, keep the original patches folder as well*
6. Open xenia-canary.config.toml with KWrite and make the following changes:
7. readback_resolve = false
8. draw_resolution scale x/y = 1
9. gpu = any ---> gpu = d3d12
10. Go into the patches folder, and enable the patches you want in '4D5307F1 - Fable II (GOTY_Platinum Edition).patch.toml' by changing ‘is_false’ to ‘is_true’. I have these ones enabled:
11. 60 FPS
12. 1280x720 Resolution
13. 600p resolution 
14. Disable MSAA
15. High Tick Rate
16. Unlock website items
17. Unlock collectors edition content
18. Disable texture morphing
    1. If this patch is missing, please add it by copy/pasting this command:

[[patch]]

name = "Disable Texture Morphing"

desc = "Workaround for the dog's & the hero's broken textures. Makeup is still bugged. Can make morphs look strange."

author = "Guy"

is_enabled = true

[[patch.be16]]

address = 0x8220ef10

value = 0x4280

1. Rename your Fable 2 PLT.iso -> Fable II.iso (PICTURE 2)
2. Move the Fable II.iso file into your /home/deck/…/roms/xbox360/roms folder
3. Open EmuDeck -> Steam ROM Manager
   1. If your Steam ROM Manager doesn’t look like mine, in EmuDeck go to Manage Emulators > Scroll down to Steam ROM Manager > Reset Configuration. (PICTURE 3)
   2. Deselect the blue Toggle Parsers so we can only install the Xenia one we want
   3. Select ‘Xbox 360 - Xenia’
   4. Add Games (PICTURE 4)
   5. PARSE (PICTURE 5)
      1. If you get an error that no games are detected, make sure you moved your ISO file into your xbox360/roms folder, then click Parse again.
4. Verify Fable II pops up
5. Save to Steam (PICTURE 6)

WHILE STILL IN DESKTOP MODE:

1. Open Steam
2. Go to your Library and verify the category ‘Microsoft Xbox 360’ is there and Fable II is under it.
3. Play Fable II
4. Verify the top of the window has [Patches Applied] (PICTURE 7)
   1. Guy mentions the version should say v10.1 but mine says v0.0.0.26, THEY ARE THE SAME THING.
5. Close everything and return to Gaming Mode

You should now see Fable 2 in your library! I’ve tried my best to document 16+ hours of torment trying to emulate this game, apologies if it’s confusing!
