 Awesome Game March 28, 2007
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I must say I cannot believe it took me so long to know of this game. The game is really good. When given a quest, you are given the option to choose several paths so you can choose the outcome and later affecting the game. You can cast pretty neat spells, but I think it could be better if you could transform into a creature of some type, or at least summon one. The world is fairly large with a lot of places to go, although the areas can sometimes be a little narrow. One feature I love is that your gear appears on your character, so you can choose how he looks whenever you want. Overall a great game, if a second part is to be released I will most definitely buy it.

I wish I had listened to the people who said this game was buggy. It played OK the first few days, but the longer I play it, the worse my problems are getting. My two-year-old Dell computer exceeds the minimum system requirements. One thing I don't like about the game play is that some sequences take an hour to complete and you can't save in the middle. Now that the game crashes during saves, I probably will not be able to finish it. I tried reloading the game, but it didn't fix anything.
 Pretty darn good January 13, 2007

An excellent port to PC, faithfully retaining the fast-paced action of the Xbox version along with all the colorful world design and British humor. The graphics are, if anything, slightly better than in the original. The extra content is also very satisfying, as in the original your character would be getting incredibly powerful and fun to use just about the time that the game ended, making you feel a bit silly if you power-leveled at some point.
Very worthwhile game with enormous replay value.
Amazing Game with tons of Re-Play Value! January 3, 2007

I've been a fan of Peter Molyneux's work for a while. I waited for Black & White and found the concept was brilliant, but the game itself was a little lacking. Fable:The Lost Chapters fulfills all the expectations I had for Black & White. It's an amazing game where you can have a completely different experience every time you play it. Every decision you make within the game has an effect on the storyline, your appearance and how you are seen by NPCs within the game. FTLC does this without the boring peasant maintainence which was a major detracting factor of Black & White.
Visually, the game is stunning in parts and average in others. Characters hands seem to be unusually large in proportion to the rest of their body at times. There is nothing in the graphics that detracts from the overall enjoyment or playability of this game however. If you have a decent graphics accelerator, there's really nothing bad to say here. I found the graphics style fun and entertaining. It's a mix of realistic and cartoon art that works well for the genre.
The only suggestions I have for improving upon this game would be to make it longer. Once you start playing, it can be addictive and it seems to fly bye. There were a few avenues that developers could have taken to expand on this game, but the replayability makes up for this since there are so many different possibilities to explore within the limitations of the storyline.
I can't wait for Fable 2.
 Fun Game but I expected more December 18, 2006

I had pretty high hopes for this game as one of the selling points is how your every choice decides your character's fate and all that. It just does the typical point scale of good vs. evil. The other selling point is how your guide your character through his life from a child to manhood well that is not true you spend about 10 minutes as a kid, 10 minutes as a adolescent and the rest of the game having finished puberty and aging as you level. The game was also pretty quick/short as the side quests were usually short and I thought there were far too few of them.
Besides those drawbacks the game was fun and I enjoyed playing it the world has some interesting interactions like stealing and other activities but it just seemed too short to me. I would definitely recommend it since it is a fun RPG and very cheap now.
