A few little tips to answer some question:
1) To make love I always found out it works if you have a condom on you. Even if your character is female ( I was having trouble with my husband, got a condom from the dresser in the house then he wanted to have sex)
2) Fat Character are brought by two things: a lot of points put in strength to make your character stronger or eatting alot of pies, beer, beef and bad food. Easy way is to take exp out of the strength or eat good foods such as celery (like someone said before) Carrots and Apples.
3) STDs are funny to see in this game but can cause harmful affects on you such as lower exp gain, lower life regain, weaker, and appearance.
4) Magic (will) showers you power in the runes on your body the brighter and more runes you have the stronger you are.
For anymore Tips feel free to message my tag on live I don't mind doing co-ops or run threws to help people out :3

My only complaints with this game are minor trivialities at best. Nothing game-breaking in the least, but they do break up the action sometimes.
-No on-screen map. Makes it difficult to get around if you don't know where you're going. The objective trail usually solves this problem, but it doesn't show you where your home that you forgot the location of is.
-The text is tiny, and some of it is cut off the screen. I can understand this; mostly everyone now has huge, HD TV's. There's no need to clutter the screen with gigantic lettering. But on my 19" SD tube TV, it's kind of hard to read anything, especially button icons. And since the screen is curved at the corners, 80% of the time, I can't see most of my health bar. It's not very helpful when trying to determine how close I am to death.
-No short-cut for item use, and every time you use an item, it goes back to the main screen. Say you have five experience potions you want to use. Well, you have to pause, go down to items, go down to potions, select the potion, and gather the orbs. Then repeat this process four more times. This isn't a big deal if you have one or two potions you want to use, but if you want to eat a big bunch of celery you've collected, it can get a bit cumbersome. Same with books and all other items.
-Typos and grammatical errors. There are a lot of these. And they're really obvious, too. I'm surprised no one caught them in testing. There's even a huge one on one of the achievements. When I get back on I'll post which one it was.
Like I said, these are all very minor things, but fixing them would have made the game that much better.
I'd also like to ask a few questions. Namely, how do you take people on dates? And what happened to my "Fable 2 pub games: free with pre-order" that I never got?
EDIT: Also, does anyone know if running a lot decreases your weight?

Basically, seduce her (see Y card for how) and then when she propositions you, give her the thumbs up. She should start following you and when you take her to a bed you should be able to get with the babymaking. Now, if you could just get her to man a forge while you're away...Bulletinmybrain post=9.74815.848624 said:
I haven't played it yet; mainly because Australia gets everything about 6 months late.
Anyways, I'm a huge fan of the original, the way the sequel is looking, I am going to be one very happy man.

He actually said that? I guess it's easy to denigrate your own game once its not selling anymore. The expressions system is still sorta iffy. I would like both the expressions and elder-scrolls conversation trees. It's ok not having it I guess. It makes it easier to role-play every all on your own. What gets said and everyone's feelings and all that.

I also have a bit of trouble with my "bread crumb" trail not always keeping up with me at a full run, or sometimes randomly appearing behind me (then when you turn around to goes back to the direction it should be in).

Yea the weight gain is a pain in the but, so i've made sure to dump all potential weight gain foods and stock up on vegetables any chance i get. In order to lose any previously accumulated weight, i headed to Bowerstone, bought all the celery from the produce guy, ate it (losing a bit of weight each), slept for 7 days and bought it again...Repeat as needed.
Tis sad that no amount of running seems to shed the pounds.
Yea at full pace the breadcrumbs just cant keep up and you find yourself constantly stopping to see where to go.
Was I the only one really irritated by not having a mini-map on the screen! That thing was so handy for navigating first time round.
Love the game though. Playing through as a good guy with a cute little halo.
I'm loving this game. Got a cool looking hero, who just got his first scars. I was in
and when I got overwhelmed and got KO'd then hit by lightning, now I have a load of burn marks on my back. I don't see why everyone is so fussed about them, same as in real life, I think scars tell a story.

I have barely started the main quest yet I've played over 20 hours. Go real estate agent trying to support multiple families!
To take people on dates just use the "Y" button to see what they like best, then use the "follow me" expression. You also don't need to wait for others to ask you for sex if you have the "come hither" expression found in the Bowerstone bookstore. Just use it when they like you a lot, and they will follow you to your home.Shadow Tyrant post=9.74815.849835 said:
For your Pub Games with the pre-order, you should have been given a card with a code on the back when you placed the pre-order. If you didn't get one, better hope you still have your sale slip.
And I stand by what I said before. This game kicks ass.
So you just take them to their favorite place and...Do some expressions? I already knew about the sex thing. I've gotten both of my wives just by walking up to them and doing manly arm pumps and such.qbert4ever post=9.74815.851275 said:
No, the store I got it from sucks balls. When I pre-ordered it, they didn't have it in for two days after release. We went and complained and they got all uppity and scared, so we got the LCE for the price of the regular game.
Also, I can't wait for the dashboard update so I can put this game on my hard drive. These load times are killing me.
Yes the load times are terrible, They also try and fail to load while in game. But the fail is in that it will do it at anytime.
Also the constant crashing.
