Looove swords, but I really hate how the hero looks with physique maced out, so I only have 1 or 2 levels of physique - but I still own with quick slash and counter ^_^

I want it so that you can modify how your character looks.
Of course you sortof can do that now.
By deleting skills.

If I'm not mistaken, you can buy potions on Knothole Island to make you skinner or shorter without deleting abilities.

Yeah that's nice, now all they need is a potion that makes you look weak with maxed out physique ^_^

That's basically what the 'skinny' potion does if I heard correctly.

Re: What is your favorite ability?

Beyond the first part of the game, I find guns (the red dragon really helping here) and magic (shock, raise dead and time control playing a large roll) very powerfu compared with melee combat and I usually end up with twice the experience in those individual areas than strength. If I were to decide between skill and will however, I'd choose skill. Since the two are quite close for me however, I've voted for skill and will.

Re: What is your favorite ability?

I like all three equally. The problem is, sometimes I'll make a new game and think "I'll just be a Skill Hero this time", but then I end up being weak in close combat, meaning I'll have to spend some experience on Toughness or Health, but then I think "Forget it, I'll just max everything again". There should be some way for you to get through the game easily on just one discipline. Sure, you can easily beat the game as a Hero of Strength. But how is a Hero of the Will going to survive in the early stages?

Re: What is your favorite ability?

I prefer Skill, though I did find it a bit unbalanced because at the start of the game it was quite tough and it just seemed to take ages in battle, but nearer the end (especially when I could do headshots etc.) everything was very easy. But I guess that's probably true of any ability.
Plus I definitely prefer the guns in fable 2 to the swords/maces etc.

I go through the game on only one discipline all the time (or sometimes a combination of two). It's how I keep things interesting.

Anyhoo, if you want to get through the game on skill alone, you need to utilize your roll ability...a lot. That way, you can dodge your enemies' attacks, and you won't need a high toughness level. You could also put a ghoul augment on your gun or crossbow to get some health back if you still find that you're loosing too much of it.

As for will, it might be a little bit tougher than strength or skill, but for the very early stages of the game, just keep hitting those bandits with level one spells, and roll around just like you would with a skill-only game. Just be sure you have a weapon out so you can roll. As for later in the game, use time control, raise dead, or chaos to buy yourself time to cast those level 4 and 5 spells.

Re: What is your favorite ability?

I'm a strength junkie, something about whacking enemies with swords (or katana's in my case) just does it for me. I like the head shots, so I always build up all of the abilities. I never have fully embraced the magic abilities in Fable 2, I find them to be difficult to use even though I will use them on occasion.
