Fable 2 or Fallout 3?

This really does not have 2 do with game design, but because 2 of what I believe r going to be great rpgs are coming out soon I was wondering which one people where more excited about. I realize most will get both, but like I said I want to know which one your more excited about. I, like many will get both but I can not wait until Fable 2 comes out. I was in the middle as far as my love for the first Fable, it had a lot of good things about it but there was a lot of things that to me were not up to par with the buzz around it. I have been reading everything on Fable 2 and I believe it is going to be the equivalent of playing the original Zelda when it first came out ( Just in case you were not alive, or were to little when it came out...IT BLEW PEOPLES F#$@ING MINDS AWAY!!!). I think Fallout 3 will be great as well, but no where near what Fable 2 is going to be!

Are you a fan?

Are you a fan of multiple endings, in an rpg?
I personally am not a fan of them. In fact, with the exception of Chrono Trigger,I would go as far as to say I hate them. I personally think it's a cop-out, and it tells me the developer does not know how to create an excellent story. So instead he's gonna fog the vision of the player by giving him ton's of choices and endings, in hopes that they will not realize what a plain, boring story it really is. Of course it's fun to have choices in a game, but there's also a time and a place for them, and don't make those choices effect the outcome of the game either. That to me is not only stupid, but can also be frustrating when I feel like I didn't make the right choice, or I should have done that, or you don't want something to happen and you could have prevented it. And in terms of what it does to the story, well let's just say I want to read the book, I don't want to have to write it to. Most of my "Real life Friends" disagree with me, so it got me thinking... Is there anybody out there that is picking up what I'm thrown down? Even if you disagree with me I still want your opinion as to why. Just be cool brothers,My topics are all supposed to be intelligent conversations, meant to broaden your horizons, as well as my own.

What's important?

1]What is the most important part of an rpg to you and why?
2] Are you a fan of pacing?
3] and finally FF7 or FF8?

My reason for asking these question's are to find out what type of gamers you guy's are. I've been working on my game for a while, But I'm new to this site...
So I don't know anybody, and you are the one's going to play my game,. and although I will not compromise my story, It can't hurt to find out what type of gamers I'm dealing with. And to clarify FF7 is more of an in your face action most of the time rpg. While FF8 is more of a slow pace M.Night type of game. So that to me is a very important Question to ask people.
