the weirdest thing about the game is how your character's age is tied to his level. so by the end of the game he was a wrinkle-faced, white-haired old man (still built like a wrestler), but everyone else didn't age one bit.

Fable was something greater than the summ of it's part imo. No singular thing in the game was anything overly special (except the music) but it all somehow fit together to form something quite magical. When I think of Fable, I get a warm fuzzy feeling in my heart, it's a very "cozy" game, I still love it.

I mean, when you're young it's not really that you don't see story issues, it's more that you don't really care cause things are a decent time-waster. Fable always felt like a very simple, basic, don't-think-about-it-too-much story, but that was part of its charm, including your ability to do right and wrong. It's when we get older we naturally become more snobby and critical of things since we're no longer happy-go-lucky youths, and can't enjoy things as much.

to be fair, it doesn't say that the hero of oakvale actually did it it just says that its rumored to have happened shortly after or before the hero went to fight jack a second time point being its still left ambiguous, and its possible someone else got tired of the guildmasters shit. Though they have LOTS of mentions of the sword of aeons as well.. though that could be just the avos tear (they look similar in shape) but the only thing going for it is really shape. my guess is its the devs/writers way of trying to be like "this is most likely the canon options" without actually stating as such also remember in fable theresea mentions multiple worlds and timelines, so its possible some weird multiverse shit is going on, which explains heros in fable 2, and fable 3 jespar even mentions how your father designed something to connect and communicate with these other worlds, with other heroes.

I remember being too goddamned terrified to go into Darkwood when I was younger. It wasn't the area itself, although the creepiness didn't do anything to help, it was those bloody Balverine's. They came back in future games but they weren't nearly as annoying as they were in the original. In future games, you could stun-lock them and just kill them easily. They didn't get nearly as bad invincibility frames and were easy to avoid even with a young and not very tactical mind. But in this game, I mentally shat myself whenever they jumped in the air and would roll around like an idiot to avoid getting dropped on. They also never seemed to die to my master longsword which was really annoying too. Mini rant aside, there's so much about this game that I haven't found in any other game no matter how much I look for it. Maybe it's because this was my first ever video game but there's just something about it I love and will never be replaced.

NatarisX I disagree. I played “Fable: The Lost Chapters” with no context as to what the game was. I didn’t pay attention to game development at that time and played it about a year after it’s release. I was absolutely blown away by it. Maybe it would seem bland if you were promised an entire universe for a year and got something different, but that would be the same with any game. That wasn’t the case for me. It *was* ahead of its time. I’d never played a game where every small decision I made had such an effect of the world around me. How I was perceived by NPCs, my appearance, what I had access to, the environment... pretty much all RPG games these days have the morality system that started with Fable. It was honestly the best game I’d ever played at the time and it’s still in my top 3 today. Between Dark Souls and Shadow of the Colossus.

I always thought that the reason you lose the ability to use magic in jail is because the guards confiscated your Guild seal. I don't think it's ever stated explicitly, but given that you need it to teleport, I always assumed that it helped you focus your other magic powers, too. Like, will is innate to the user, but isn't really all that useful without something to focus and direct it with. Like wands in Harry Potter.

Molyneux is a massive liar, and a con artist. He made a game called Curiosity. Where players tap a cube. He sold DLC such as a $77000 DLC and others, all because he said the content at the center of the cube is worth it and "would be life changing" ... Then a person finally got into the cube, and there was a video of Molyneux saying "we could have just given the winner a ton of money, or a car, but we will do something better, we will make the winner into a literal God" and then Molyneux did an advertisement for his upcoming super shitty mobile micro transaction game, and promising the winner that they would get to influence the game "like a God" and would get "a small portion of the revenue". So okay, the winner tried to contact Molyneux, and the team replied that he will get his prizes later. He kept mailing them once per month until they stopped replying. Two years later he went to the press to say he STILL had not received the prize. Molyneux promised via the press that he would take care of it. But he didn't. That was in 2015. Fuck Molyneux, he is a con artist, a liar, and a shitty game designer who always boasts and never delivers. His bloviating mouth should be permanently sealed with cow excrement to shut him up.

Yeah, Fable takes the older, Ancient Greek definition of “hero” as the norm- being an unusually powerful demigod of sorts who is destined for great, if not necessarily good things. I actually always found that idea quite interesting, because other games just wouldn’t use the word “hero” at all unless it was good stuff you were doing. Also yes I think the Lost Chapter was originally meant to be for the vanilla game, since it was possible to bug your way to the Northern Wastes in the original XBox release from what I remember. No quests or anything, but the location is there.

One section in particular which blew my mind was when my character was sent out to the spire to work for eight years. By the time he came back the family he left behind grew up and had little personalities. It was tragic in that I missed out in seeing them grow up but the family which was completely optional to have with a random girl, changed because of the choices he made. Also he got fat when he ate pie. Please review

you forgot the mystical frying pan........its a side quest to find a frying pan for someone in a town or something, but the frying pan is made with mystical properties so at the very end you must toss something in that's mystical not just the sword. so at the very end when you take the sword, switch out the sword for the frying pan and toss that in and it willl think you tossed in the sword. then sit through all the credits, do NOT just hit the x button to skip the credits. once they run through, it'll ask you to continue and you'll play after the last saved point WITH the sword. my faorite bit was augmenting a strong weapon to gather mana energy each time it killed an enemy and then enter berserk mode which gives greater strength and endurance with slightly slower speed (unless you dash). once you max your stats for damage then you one hit monsters in normal but remember you're in berserk mode and since your weapon is refueling your mana you never leave berserk mode while you're continually attacking, sooooo that's why i like going to the grey house and just getting rich cause each monster also drops money so if they are never ending and you are just one hitting with invisibility then you go ham.

This is the last game I truly enjoyed playing. I was at the end of my rabid gamer phase so I maxed out every aspect of Fable and loved every minute of it. I was never really able to get into a game quite as I did with it and even tried again with Fable 2 but I lost the magic. A lot of people blame the games for not being as interesting or good but fail to realize they are the reason why and have just grown out of the phase where they can truly enjoy playing. Some people are able to bring the joy of playing into later life and some cannot. Life just got too complicated for me to be able to invest the time needed to really enjoy games. I am much sadder as a result. I loved this video tho, it brought back a little blue to the gray.

The music in this game was second to none. The music, the art style, it all has this.... soothing effect. Wandering through Bowerstone and Greatwood in the first game was just enjoyable and pleasant. Fighting the Balverines in the Darkwood was terrifying. A great game, and will always be missed.

I strongly disagree that the evil ending in The Lost Chapters is more compelling. If you read the hero's journal, it's revealed that the mask still contained the essence of the Jack of Blades. He completely possesses the hero, mocks him for having a journal and declares in it how he has everything he needs now to dominate the world. The Sword of Aeons with the heroes' mother and sister's essence in it, and the heroes battle-tested body. Why would the player character, even if he's pure evil, surrender his body and soul over to the Jack of Blades? It's a complete possession, too. Jack writes something along the lines of "he's gone, only the Jack of Blades remains!" or something like that. It's not a merging of souls. Why give his mind and body to Jack when Jack has caused all this mayhem in his life? The "Hero" may be evil, but, I presume he wouldn't want to give his entire being over to the bad guy who he killed in the first part of the game and who has constantly been taunting/insulting/mocking him throughout both the original and the DLC/expansion. It doesn't really make sense. If the player is evil, then Jack is more of a rival than someone you'd want to give your unlimited power to. Even in my evil playthroughs, I threw the mask away immediately after trying it once and discovering the journal entry. I would get a buttload of karma for doing it but then I'd go sacrifice some folk to Skorn to make up for it, haha. Anyway, just my two cents. I found this ending to be more compelling until I saw the journal and the implication it gave that the player was now Jack and he had fallen for Jack's plan.

it's less of an implication and more of a statement honestly, jack of blades is immortal- this we keep getting told by books and his general reputation as being roughly 10-20x stronger than all the top teir heroes which seems legit if you've ever fought thunder... the mask IS jack the body is just a fool who wore it thinking that he would become that strong....he doesn't (jack gets a weak body but he himself is powerful, combine his strength and he's unstoppable but still only jack not you)

"Wear me, wear me and gods will envy your power. Wear me, and the world will bow at your feet. Wear me, and you shall be immortal." This is what the mask promises you. Power, immortality, ruling the world. It's not your character willingly surrendering body and soul; it's a trick claiming he will gain even more power (not that he necessarily needs it at this point, but I think it's plausible an insane evil character wanting all the power he can get). So by accepting the mask you aren't willingly inviting Jack in, you believe you're simply going to be stronger. Which is why I think this was an awesome ending/twist-in trying to become more powerful than...anything that has ever existed, the evil Hero loses themself to the mask-like previous heroes have done, continuing the cycle. Alternatively a good hero throws the mask away, defeating Jack once and for all.

Fable would go down as one of the best action RPGs of all time had it not been for the unreasonable promises and hype. What it was and what it did was extremely innovative for its time, and it was presented in a fairly clean package without a lot of unnecessary bloat (which is my problem with later installments). It's just a fun game with a lot of character and a good amount of unique mechanics in a very streamlined package.

With regards to Fable's charm and style, the closest things I can think of that match the game's character are the Discworld and Overlord series (both of which were penned by the Pratchetts, incidentally enough). Comic fantasy with a dash of dark humor and wit.

At about 4:45 when you say the game heavily pushes you to be heroic, look at it like this. Maybe seeing your entire home village burned to the ground, seeing people being slaughtered in the streets, finding your dead father. The psychological trauma from this could manifest itself later in the hero's life causing him to become a horned redglowing sith lord.

I always feel disappointed when I hear how much content was cut from this game. The open world, the amazing ideas like being able to change the world around you, not just your character. You can tell the developers tried their best to iron out what they can and make a solid game with what they had. I have been playing the game annually, ever since I was a kid and I honestly don't see that tradition ever changing. Thank you for the amazing memories, Lionhead Studios and may you guys find great work elsewhere.
