If they add animals (meaning not just a dog) period, I just hope that the animal thing doesn't look incredibly dumb like in the game FATE. Sure even if it's still a standard house dog or animal of any kind, I just hope it even looks like it could physically put up a fight (like a rotweiller or pitbull or somethin, not a little fru-fru like spoiled rich dog).

The whole catching and taming sounds a bit too much like World of Warcraft to me, but to each his own.

Catching & Taming and/or using pets for battle, that also sounds a lot like Jade cacoon, Jade Cacoon two, Dungeon Siege 2, Every Pokemon Game, Yoshi from Super Mario, Various final fantasy games that allow beastmastering, Digimon, Neverwinter Nights, Neverwinter Nights 2, Icewind Dale 2, Temple of Elemental Evil, Titan Quest, FATE, Diablo 2, Black And White 1 & 2, Dungeons and Dragons 2nd, 3rd, and 3.5 edition, and about a hundred other games.
Originality in video games has gone completely down aside from graphics, but it's also the least quality focused on in many reviews, as mainly gamers want customization and gameplay hours rather than complete originality.
So Fable 2 having different animals that you can tame and use for battle, it may not be original but it's an additive quality that would probably help the game more than hurt it.
