Fable

Easily one of the most quotable games ive ever played. Compared to the usual open-world RPG, it doesn't really take itself too seriously which is a nice change of pace - definitely a game you can chill out to whilst playing - yes, there's a fishing mini-game.

It's not what the makers promised it was going to be; the storyline doesn't reeeaaally change from the choices you make and there are the odd glitch and bug (e.g you can get the end-game weapons at the start by wall-clipping)

but the beauty can be found in the droll dialogue, the charming soundtrack and the characters - i found the side-quests and their often humerous npc's the most enjoyable parts of the game, along with mixing up the basic-yet-flexible combat system

If you're looking for an easy-going, short-ish RPG then look no further, farm-boy.

OK its just as good as I hoped......AND BETTER MUCH BETTER I mean at first I was thinking of almost Morrowind graphics (not that there bad) but this game excels in every way I have played it for 8 full hours it rocks the story the graphics I am just so fully impressed with this game cant wait to hear more from you all its such a fun game there's so many choices you can do so much and its not confusing at all to get started in I am so impressed I hope to see more from these creators but I just don't know if there will be any way to give it this games same Majesty its just an all around fun game so lets see what everyone else has to say

A VERY SATISFIED CUSTOMER

10/10 in my book

P.s. ITS NOT HALO 2 IF YOU WEREN'T PAYING ATTENTION IT IS A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAME PLEASE QUIT COMPARING THEM

Do not take this the wrong way. I'm not really disappointed at the game. I believe it performs well as evidenced by the excellent graphics, the musical score, the voice-overs and yes, story (short and childish as it may be.)What did you expect? Its called Fable.

The advantages overcome the cons only by a hair. However, the game fails to deliver when it comes to fulfilling its tag line

"For every choice a consequence."

yeah, Right. To say that this game gives you freedom is an exaggeration. I've seen better freedom in games like Fallouts 1&2 and Morrowind. There is rarely a chance to do great evil in the game (like chopping off the head of someone you were supposed to rescue and showing it to the person whos looking for them, now thats evil.) Instead evil is gained by randomly killing innocents which is kinda boring. And i got the feeling that it doesn't really reward evil that much. I'm sorry but Fable is just too short and limiting when it comes to quests and side-quests.

However, this game almost seems like a breath of fresh air from other RPGs out there today and it deserves a pat in the back.

this game gets 8 outta 10 quest cards for me.

Even after all these years this game is still a pleasure to play, Fable is one of my all time favourite games and was such a revolutionary game back in it's day.

The anniversary version is a great update with remastered visuals & addition items & quests adding in the Lost chapters which adds an extra 3/4 hours on to the end of the original game tying up loose ends and giving you a proper final bad guy battle

Fable is one of the better RPG games out there (from someone who's been playing RPGs for 20 years). The storyline, though basic, does allow for a lot of wandering and exploring, as well as side adventures not related to the main quest though entertaining and worth taking. This is one of the first games I have seen that has the amount of interaction between the PC and NPCs. The creatures do become progressively more difficult, and you have to always be ready to try something new to defeat them, but learning and mastering the basic skills are what will keep you alive. If you are looking for a game that has a solid storyline, but gives you relative freedom to explore the world, this is a fun, enjoyable, entertaining game.
