Lionhead Comfirms More Fable 2 DLC Written Thursday, March 12, 2009 by Alan Pettit This isn't really something we didn't see coming. When a company uses only 100 of their available 250 DLC-based achievement points (or is 750, 300 or some other number now?), we kind of expect some more. Especially with these big games as I suppose Fable could be classified. The latest blog post on Lionhead's site answers the question "will there be any more DLC for Fable II" with a simple "Yes." Geez, thanks for the info, guys. At any rate, there you have it, more Fable 2 DLC on the way. | |

 | Comment #4 by Strategic_Luck Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:38:29 PM sold this game long ago, needed a patch more then anything =/ |
 | Comment #5 by darthmushu Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:39:03 PM Guess I have to borrow the game back from my friend. |
 | Comment #6 by icypinksmurf Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:40:40 PM hopefully its easy. :/ |
 | Comment #7 by BigFellaJake Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:41:30 PM Good thing I kept this game, hopefully the DLC will make me want to buy it as the Knothole one didn't seem that good. |
 | Comment #8 by xTastyBeveragex Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:43:41 PM Lionhead used to be my favorite company but now they make me irritated, they need to stop getting people's hopes up about stuff, prepare for some delays everyone. |
 | Comment #9 by hodge Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:44:37 PM Damn! I just got rid of this =[ |
 | Comment #10 by WaDiNhO Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:47:47 PM Bring it |
 | Comment #11 by Ingles55 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:48:57 PM Just the news I was waiting to hear! Now when will it be out and what will it contain? |
 | Comment #12 by DJSeth227 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:49:59 PM i hope the put the cost of the first one to 400 then ill buy it i got a lot of complaints of my friends of the DLC |
 | Comment #13 by The Mau5 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:52:07 PM Fable 2, the last game I played 'till the infamous RROD showed up... curses! Well, I still like to hang around and doing absolutely nothing in Fable 2 occasionally, I'll be looking forward to this! |
 | Comment #14 by ITD Soldierboy Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:54:28 PM I hope it is better then the first. I was upset over the first set of DLC. |
 | Comment #15 by JJ Bombay Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 02:58:59 PM You forgot to include a release date so they can push it back another 2 months. Turtle head = when a poop log pokes his head out and goes back in. Lionhead = a poop log that roars on out no matter how hard you try to cage the beast! |
 | Comment #16 by rubixcubed60 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 03:05:59 PM never grabbed the first dlc any good? |
 | Comment #17 by lordskorrkeeper Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 03:15:22 PM Damn it, I returned my friends copy of Fable 2 after the first DLC boo going to need to get it back now hahah |
 | Comment #18 by Tarvu Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 03:17:14 PM Hopefully this one will not suck. They should go Shivering Isles, or rather, The Northern Wastes style with it. A big expansion like Fable: The lost chapters. Hang the price. |
 | Comment #19 by hamthepimp Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 03:53:03 PM You people are fucking idiots. Everything people bitched and moaned about in the original game was fixed in the DLC. Don't want to eat celery to lose weight? Use a weight loss potion. Can't take augments out? Use the new augment remover or whatever its called. The DLC length was fine. My only problem was that it was predictable. Just because you all expected it to be another Shivering Isles and it wasn't you're all pissed at Lionhead over it. Get the fuck over it. Personally, I don't think I've ever regreted a purchase of anything more than I have with Fallout 3, which everyone for some reason loves so damn much. A buggy game that freezes everytime I try to play it is not what I had in mind. Not to mention the DLC was as expensive as Knothole Island, yet it took me more than an hour and a |
 | Comment #20 by DemonI81 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 03:53:13 PM I'm sure I'll get it when it comes out. I just hope it's longer/better than Knothole Island. Clocking 2 hours tops for $10 is a little ridiculous... Seems to be the standard with DLC lately though. |
 | Comment #21 by monk3boy Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 03:53:24 PM I actually enjoyed Knothole. It wasn't a huge quest, but the trading, armour and different weather effects were great. Not to mention the new potions that you could use on yourself. It wasn't awesome (like say Bethesda's DLC) but it was still a fairly solid experience. |
 | Comment #22 by Kirbster117 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 03:58:42 PM Cool another reason to keep playing it |
 | Comment #23 by Sakura4600 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 03:58:54 PM YEAH!! CANT WAIT!! |
| Comment #24 by DemonI81 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 04:07:46 PM @ #19 Your opinion matters much more when you speak calmly and don't insult or attack others for their opinions. When you go off like you did not only do you risk being banned, but you totally discredit yourself. This is just some advice, take it or leave it, it's up to you. |
 | Comment #25 by Krisko Disko Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 04:28:48 PM Frankly, I don't understand the appeal of Fable II, especially when you have Fallout 3 or even Oblivion instead. I know this is personal opinion, but I didn't find a single thing in Fable II that hooked me to want to play past the end of the main quest. |
 | Comment #26 by watson360d Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 04:35:28 PM i havent even bought knothole island yet. wonder when the new updates coming. |
 | Comment #27 by CrAb WiZaRd Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 04:35:29 PM YEAH! Bring it on! |
 | Comment #28 by l.maciver Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 04:42:23 PM intresting, ill consider getting fable 2 back to have alook at the new content. |
 | Comment #29 by awesomepizza Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 04:48:21 PM Knothole island wasn't great, but I did like playing it as I went through the game. I can see how much it would suck finishing the game and coming back months later to pay 800 points and then complete a short simplistic missions...but then again, what did people except? None of the game's missions were all that difficult or deep. |
 | Comment #30 by spilner100 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 04:51:55 PM rental anyone |
 | Comment #31 by brodieman36 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 04:57:58 PM I'll definitely wait for some reviews on it no matter what. I personally felt like I wasted my MS Points on Knothole island. I paid to shoot orbs back and forth for 3 hours. Concept cool, beautiful map, extras were neat, but the orb thing, I will never forgive them for that. There was no creativity there at all. |
 | Comment #32 by Jmashed Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:07:03 PM The only reason I'd buy the DLC for this game is achievements, big disappointment in a lot of areas. I know Lionhead put their heart and soul into this game but it still wasn't that great of a game(very over-rated), just a RPG that anyone could get into easily(unlike spending 20+ hours watching cut scenes in any newer final fantasy and another 20 doing the story with 30+ hours of extras). But then again I might just buy some arcade games, seems like a better place to spend my money. |
 | Comment #33 by Oultranator0731 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:08:34 PM i want: More sidequests which make the game have replayability. Worth the co-op More shops with new items and more areas Longer campaign than the dlc Good voice acting |
 | Comment #34 by eskEMO Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:14:51 PM Probably came about after Jonathon Ross mentioned it in his Twitter that he was offered a voice in upcoming Fable stuff. To help kill Fable 3 rumors. |
 | Comment #35 by ArmyOfPie Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:24:08 PM I can't wait for new DLC, I loved Knothole Island even if it was short. I would love to have a larger land to play on for the new DLC though, like maybe a really big new town to explore with some mansions and stuff. |
 | Comment #36 by Magicman10893 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:28:57 PM Sounds sweet. I thought Knothole Island was pretty good. All you guys complaining about the length, yeah it's short if you've already beaten the game, but if you play with a NEW hero it'll take you all the way to the Crucible to unlock the last quest. Plus, how could you guys not like, i don't know, the other god damned content! seriously, there's more than the quest. It had all those NEW legendary weapons |
 | Comment #37 by Gariom Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:36:03 PM Fable II is a good game, IMO. It pisses me off though that it's designed for HDTVs, which I don't have and probably never will. So half of my health and anything else on the bottom or top of screen is cut off. |
 | Comment #38 by lamboliochen Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:40:17 PM i get to max the game out for a third time woooo |
 | Comment #39 by HystericalNaked Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:43:52 PM Lionhead keep their answers like their games: short. |
 | Comment #40 by x deadboy x Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:51:41 PM Its about time that the single player is finally getting noticed. Enough with the map packs. |
 | Comment #41 by tnargus Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:54:04 PM @ #39 - Well said :) Will rent this game out and complete the DLC achievements one day. I completed about 900/1000 and the story and side missions in about 4 days when it came out. Great game, far far to short. |
 | Comment #42 by some Irish guys Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 05:56:29 PM I'm going to agree with #30, definitely a rental. If people would look past the length of Knothole Island, it was the most fun part of the game. It added all of the new potions, armor, and achievements, and my only complaint is length. So, as I wait earnestly for the new DLC, and hope it is just as much fun and a lot longer, I won't keep my fingers crossed. |
 | Comment #43 by Freshmaker Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 06:07:20 PM YESSSSS!!!!, I will defiantly be getting this, can't wait, hopefully it comes sooner than expected, it would be nice to try some new content for Fable 2 =) |
 | Comment #44 by BlackTitan666 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 06:17:54 PM #4 what needed to be patched in the game. i had no problem with it |
 | Comment #45 by UCanSadaA Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 06:19:23 PM Do want. |
 | Comment #46 by UnerringBiscuit Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 07:04:27 PM Hopefully it will be better than Knothole |
 | Comment #47 by Loosewheel Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 07:16:52 PM I cant be bothered getting this new dlc unless they start bringing updates out for knothole island as its messed my game up completely. :( |
 | Comment #48 by Dragon Antares Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 07:23:15 PM I hope that this one will have more Gs then the last |
 | Comment #49 by Infomouse Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 07:53:16 PM Why don't they go back to when DLC was good?? |
 | Comment #50 by RedRum253 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 07:56:14 PM yeah i knew they were making more. i hope they do one that continues the storyline like the original cause they left a few unanswered questions. |
| Comment #51 by GhostSpider Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 07:56:53 PM I need to buy this game. |
 | Comment #52 by narcolepticshee Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 07:57:57 PM Just thought I'd give the heads up and say that 'Comfirms' is actually spelt 'Confirms' Peace |
 | Comment #53 by Grouchu Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 08:11:05 PM I just hope they provide a worthy boss to fight. |
 | Comment #54 by Jose0102 Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 09:11:11 PM Thats cool I'm still missing a few of the other achievements. |
 | Comment #55 by The Magic Doty Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 10:02:34 PM kool... i loved fable 1. fable 2 was good hopefuly this DLC brings the love back |
 | Comment #56 by Soviet Milenkov Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 10:52:11 PM Coming this fall... christmas... whenever, please welcome the new Fable 2 DLC, titled "Lionheads attempt at a decent ending" |
 | Comment #57 by LG Whitesnake Thursday, March 12, 2009 @ 11:21:20 PM The first DLC was pretty cool to me you know with the new weapons and items but the length of it was too short you basically did the same quest 3 times. I just hope it does add to the main story or adds a whole knew explorable area. |
 | Comment #58 by artphobia Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 12:26:03 AM Sounds cool enough, I like Fable2. Though would be great if I could get my final achievement before they add more. Stupid dolls! lol Anyone here mind helping a fellow gamer let me know personal message style :) |
 | Comment #59 by Genesis Demon Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 03:34:43 AM cant wait, although it means i wont have 100% the game anymore lol |
 | Comment #60 by N3XXIS Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 04:34:15 AM Fable 2 DLC = Epic Disapointment. HOPEFULLY we see something more..... full in this upcoming DLC? I also sold this game a short while ago. Not worth keeping, but I can just borrow it off my friend when need be. Keep on shipping DLC's LH Studios and MAYBE you'll recover from your partial fail that was Fable2. P.S. I actually LIKE the game, its just a disapointing sequal to what Fable 1 was. |
 | Comment #61 by ZLU CORONA Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 06:36:36 AM yes!!! |
 | Comment #62 by Simonizer1986 Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 06:45:06 AM I LOOOOOOOVE FABLE.... =) |
 | Comment #63 by noddegamra Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 07:08:12 AM This is what Jonathan Ross must have been on about when he let it slip about doing the voice for "Fable 3". He probs meant Fable 2 DLC: http://www.gxpblog.com/2009/03/fable-3-announced-accidentally.html |
 | Comment #64 by MasterSparky Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 07:13:09 AM Last one was a bit rubbish, Though Ill probably get this next one to... (Rollseyes) |
 | Comment #65 by AngelArmed Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 07:51:44 AM I just hope there aren't any more silly achievements that require me to destroy a town's economy to get an item or trade dolls. x_x |
 | Comment #66 by R-Dawggy Dawg Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 08:40:12 AM R-Dawg Hungry For Achievements!!! |
 | Comment #67 by IWi11KickU Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 08:44:47 AM I've always wanted to comfirm something.... coMfirm... it has a nice ring to it. |
| Comment #68 by ReynoldsM Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 09:18:23 AM I could never really getting into Fable 2 no matter how much tried and I doubt this DLC will bring me back to it to be honest. |
 | Comment #69 by -Cameron- Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 10:03:34 AM Good thing i didnt sell it when I got the 1100G on it! I knew there would be more. |
 | Comment #70 by ibeatnu69 Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 10:07:21 AM IMO Lionhead should just keep it coming with DLC. I didn't enjoy this as much as Fallout 3 or Oblivion, yet it is an enjoyable enough game. With DLC extending that enjoyment. I will get anything new to keep it going. Balls |
 | Comment #71 by xgonscm2 Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 10:19:57 AM lol @ 70...u and your Balls! comment, makes me laugh everytime |
 | Comment #72 by wizzard_of_tha_hood Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 11:42:47 AM guess im not gonna trade it just yet then |
 | Comment #73 by Sandman1000 Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 01:36:56 PM Great news so it coming of course more dlc for this game |
 | Comment #74 by kelnoker Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 02:08:48 PM that's a really nice game but i don't buy DLC of it as i only rent it |
| Comment #75 by jakedale1 Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 03:21:20 PM i think the dlc should be about ur hero becomeing the new ninja worrier coz the old ninja worrier one has long gone and the place needs 2 be proteced like the hole thing should u being traind 2 comea ninja worrier and right at the end some one is trying 2 do someting 2 the place and u hav 2 stop him i think that would be gooooood :) |
 | Comment #76 by Spinach D Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 03:44:48 PM Hopefully the Knothole Island DLC will be a candidate for Deal of the Week soon. I would consider picking it up for 400 MSP. |
 | Comment #77 by ROA5T BeeF Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 06:24:20 PM I enjoyed the two hours it took to beat the first DLC. If it was in the original game, I'd consider it to be the best side quest. Hopefully this one is just longer. |
 | Comment #78 by ThIsIsThEpErSoNuFeAr Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 08:18:26 PM Typo in Headline Lionhead Comfirms More Fable 2 DLC. Confirms is the right way. Not being a jerk just telling you. |
 | Comment #79 by ddpacker Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 09:02:11 PM @ #24 Your opinion doesn't matter at all. He wasn't speaking, neither was he being rash. It's the fucking internet, if you think ANYBODY even ACKNOWLEDGES your condescending opinions, than you should blow your head off. You cannot be banned for that. He's telling a select few that everyone thinks is stupid, that they are stupid. Nobody cares about whether or not you advise for or against something because... wait... I don't understand why you even think you garner any respect, are you like... 5 or older... or a mod... or something... I doubt it. Anyway, nothing could get me playing that game... ever again. |
| Comment #80 by ddpacker Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 09:07:12 PM @ 49, Like When? |
 | Comment #81 by DSM_DARKSIDE Saturday, March 14, 2009 @ 12:49:44 AM DEMON u are a champ ppl who just go off are fools anyway im stoked to hear new DLC is coming was considering trading this in since ive got all 1100 but ill hold on to it i think cheers X360a keep us posted |
 | Comment #82 by harry Saturday, March 14, 2009 @ 08:11:51 AM sweet |
 | Comment #83 by Mike Langlois Sunday, March 15, 2009 @ 09:26:00 PM Good to know, Fable's never disappointed me, but then again, i never expect anything from games nowadays. Had my gaming heart broken too many times by developer lies and pushed back release dates |
