Fable: TLC trumps this...

I rented Fable II, beat it to satisfaction, went through the endings and didn't hesitate to return it to Blockbuster.  Honestly, good game, not great.  What made me kind of peeved was that all the way during the game, you were being told how much stronger, bigger and badder the heroes of Old were.  
Indeed, I remember how physically huge and powerful my character in Fable: The Lost Chapters had become (bigger than Thunder).  Compared to my hero after the story ended in Fable II, who was still considerably smaller than town sheriffs even though my physical stats were maxed out...

The entire time while playing Fable II, it simply made me want to go back and play the original Fable.  I never really felt like a "hero" during Fable II.  Did anyone else feel this way?  

Side Note: To anyone who enjoyed Fable II, you'll love Fable: TLC (if you can find a copy).

Nope.

I was kind of annoyed how fat my hero looked for no reason later in the game tho.

No, I didn't feel that way at all...Fable 2 was much more enjoyable than TLC.

The characters in Fable 2 were too big for themselves already. Who cares if you weren't as fat as a town guard? You could slice him in half or fry him with lightning at your own whim.

You weren't fat for no reason, you were fat because you eat too much.

In terms of story yes, Fable 1 is superior.
But. Fable 2 is much better in alot of other ways.
If there were no bugs and a better story (e.g one with a boss battle were you actually fight) Fable 2 would be a 5 star game.

I found it extremely annoying that every time I increased my skill allowing me to deal more melee damage that my guy would become bigger. I don't want a giant douche. This left me with leaving that skill fairly low which made doing melee damage later on kind of pointless. I was forced to use lots of magic (although, the fire and lightning when maxed pretty much rapes everything).
