Fable 2 DLC: Knothole Island Review

Posted by Xyiko | Posted in , , , | Posted on 7:14:00 AM

After you dole out your 800 MS Points (13.50 if you have zero points) and download the DLC. You meet a man named Gordon at the Bowerstone Docks, who’ll give you a few special items after you agree to go to Knothole Island to help with their weather problem. Now begins your adventure in EPIC LACKING! (It only took me two hours to beat at a slow pace.) The expansion contains three main quests which require you to leave the island and then come back to the ONLY! town on the whole island. Dungeons are more of a giant hallway with Flit switch moments (lets make the game take longer, cuz we can’t think of anything else to do) that could have simply been enemies battles instead. The two other quests are for the “I must find everything” people (even then it doesn’t take that long). There is even a resurrection shrine for those whose dog was killed.

While I was sucked in at first by all the awesome little growth, shrink, thin, fat and scar healing potions; I soon found myself bored with the real lack of meat in the content. A Halo rifle and suit of armor is no replacement for story.

WHAT I WOULD LIKED TO HAVE SEEN:

* Instead of just one town with three different dungeons. I would of liked to see three unique towns each with it own Dungeon and then a central final dugeon in the center of the island.

* Couple of new “weather” related spells or enemies.

* The Resurrection Shrine as a Dungeon or Quest, where you would have to kill a certain amount of enemies/NPC to resurrection your dog.

* Potions to increase or decrease your good or evilness.
