Apparently, Lionhead mentioned something or other about a patch for Fable II a while back, but it’s been so long I can’t even remember them promising anything concrete in the first place.
Regardless of my horrible short-term memory, the all-inclusive patch I’m referring to is still being worked on. According to the Lionhead dev blog, the update is in the final stages of testing and will be certified … soon?
No tentative release date is given — probably to prevent our hopes and dreams from being crushed — so there’s no telling when the update will go live. The tone used in the blog linked above makes it sound as if the wait won’t be much longer, though.
