    Dont worry Bacon, money is so easy to come by eventually that its laughable. I have over 4 million easy on my character and I got over 1 mil the other day because I got the DLC and wanted to play it. So I can easily get over 1 mil in one daY of playing with a paycheck of somewhere around 18,000 (and Im a good guy who lowered every house to -20% pay)

    Last night I played for a bit and decided to quit without saving to try all the new potions and weapons. Then I decided to bring my dog back.

    I am amazed at the actual real life emotion I felt when the doors opened up and it was MY DOG. Same name, same collar he had on at his death.

    Its gonna be REALLY hard as a hero to stick to my "no dead citizen" guns and not bring him back for real.

    Oh come on they're brainless half-twits, its not like the citizens have any depth to them whatsoever :mrgreen:

    I was pretty disappointed that the whole destruction of the Heroes Guild by murderous citizens armed with gunpowder weapons were so completly ignored. I thought it would have some kind of story significance, considering the blurbs about the history of Albion on the Fable 2 website but I guess that part of the story simply went nowhere.

    It was centuries later, to a group of unpopular figures at the time. It makes sense for the emotional impact of that event to be lost over time.

    also: I want to dye my dog.

    It really is a pain in the ass (i got it ), but its amazing how many times you do a good round (like 60) and then do a not so great (35). The guys commentary can really throw you off at times especially when it doesn't even relate to whats going on "What a crummy shot" when you are just aiming.

    I keep losing my zoom, and I don't know why... I'll be aiming, fire, and all of a sudden be back zoomed out. Kinda annoying. :|

    Five times at 174 now. :(

    Yeah that happens to me also, you have to keep holding down y after you shoot (almost instantly) its a pain :(

    If you aren't already - try doing really well on the first stage (I underestimated the amount of points I could get there at first). Last round (you just really need to be pumped up) so drink caffeine or something.

    On the bridge, it's best to ignore one half, and just focus on anything that pops up in the other half. I prefered aiming at the right half, because it's a bit closer. Also, whenever you get a headshot (I assume you're aiming for headshots, because you absolutely should), don't move your aim for about a second. Very often, especially in the bridge stage, a target will pop up again in the same place after you shoot one. It might waste a few seconds, but you'll get a lot of free headshots, and it's definitely worth it.

    That's what I ended up doing... finally got it, too. With 201 fucking points. :P

    Reward is hot shit, though. I'm especially happy since I'm a ranged guy. :)

    So I just finished this.

    Why are the choices so hamfisted in this game?
    YOU CAN DO THIS, WHICH BENEFITS YOU. BUT, IT IS EVIL. OOOOOOHHH *waves fingers around* make your choooooiiiiiiiiiiiiice! x100.

    Having said that I absoloutly loved it and will be playing it again.

    Fantastic game.

    I think thats why I really didn't enjoy this game. It seemed to go out of its way to become every rpg cliche all rolled into one.

    I would say the combat being way too easy pretty much ruined it for me. Even the trolls are not tough, unless your doing co-op.

    The best thing was the demon doors. A nice, unique puzzle idea that was fairly entertaining.

    I think they do, but only after that event. Meaning, until you go there, they are babies and will stay babies. Afterwards, any new babies will very quickly grow to toddlers.

    I hated the town cryer so much. I wanted to stab him repeatedly, which I ended up doing. I just wish some of the characters wouldn't respawn if it was desired.

    I really do think the developers should decide if they want to pursue a more serious route with Fable 3 or just go with the whole whimsical (nothing means anything) approach (e.g. the goofy expressions, 1 dimensional villagers,etc.).

    This is a big one that may not be in your log but you should do before departure:
    Someone will ask you for investment money in westcliff. PAY THE MAN.

    And it was overrun by shadows and hollow men.

    Will anyone ever come back or is that it? No more temple of shadows?

    I think I'm in the same predicament, did you by any chance
    save the Temple of Light?
    In which case, I suspect it's permanent.

    I didn't do it because I couldn't decide which one I wanted to side with, so I left it before going to the spire, to decide later.

    I finally decide after finishing the main quest story, come back and the decision has been made for me I guess

    So, about the Knothole Island ending:
    So the chieftain offered me 10,000 g at the end and...immediately after he says that, I earned 17,000 g from my real estate profits.
    I have to say, his offer was suddenly even less appealing than it was to begin with.
