Knothole Island reportedly has a special shrine that does a certain special thing relating to the end of the game. I'm not going to say more for fear of giving out spoilers. 😛

List of fixes not related to the DLC.

Today there was a Title Update (aka patch) for Fable II, fixing the issues that were reported on our forums and that we could reproduce. Below is a list I've mentioned earlier, I'll try and get additional information regarding other fixes and report those when I find out.

There has also been an update to Tales of Albion with the addition of Knothole Island. You can now find it on the Albion map in Today's Travels.

- The Ritual/Monk?s Quest ? Fixed the issue with the Abbott becoming unresponsive if you leave Oakfield before he finishes talking. This will fix the problem if you?ve already hit it, too.

- Rescuing Charlie/Rescue My Baby ? after rescuing Charlie, you can now able to interact with objects. Will fix saves made when this bug was active.

- Guild Cave chest ? resolves any issues with previously inability to retrieve items unlocked from Limited Collector?s Edition, website or Chicken Kickin? game. If you?ve already hit this bug you should now get your items. If you?ve already hit this bug you should now get your items.

- The Spire (Pt2) ? no more issues with ship captain being unresponsive. This will fix saves with this bug active however in order to free the captain you must go to Wescliff, leave the region and then return to it.

- The Hero of Skill (Pirate King) ? you?ll no longer get stuck during Hero of Skill quest (Bloodstone). Should prevent the problem and fix if saved in a broken state, in some cases it is necessary to go to reavers mansion and allow his cutscene to play out in order to free up the hero.

- T.O.B.Y./Trouble In Bloodstone ? you?ll no longer get stuck during T.O.B.Y. quests (Bloodstone). This problems manifested when a player hit one of the pirate king bugs above and so these may be remedied as above in cases where a save was made in this state ? i.e. by returning to Reaver and allowing his cutscene to finish. In some cases this will not work.

- Your child - will no longer be chosen as an assassination target. This will clear the assassination quest if it was saved with your child as the target.

- Furniture Shop in Albion (Bowerstone) will now always have something for sale, it will fix cases were a save has been made in this state.

- Additional unspecified fixes

I got the patch on Saturday. I queued up the DLC to download when I get home tonight. I honestly buy more marketplace stuff now that I can just use xbox.com to find it.
 
Ahh, always terrible timing with this stuff. Just got Saints Row 2 and deleted my Fable II install. Looks like this will be put on hold until I get through that and probably Left 4 Dead. Hopefully they'll drop the price by then - $10 seems steep.
 
I also just deleted my Fable II install. I was ready to play this in December, but now I'm not so sure, especially since I have another console and a boat load of games to play.
 
Already did 2 quests this morning. Probably not worth the 10 bucks but its still fun and added more to a great game.
