Fable?

[quote name='juicedup1']Is Fable, an RPG like Zelda (action RPG)? Or is it like Final Fantasy style?(boring)[/quote]

:rofl: A well-asked question, if I do say so myself.
 
That avater a pic from True Fantasy or Dark cloud by any chance Adam? And yah, Fable has awesome combat, best in any RPG for a long time. The magic is really fun to mess with in battle.
 
Fable is action based, yes, but it is also only about a 10-11 hour game... i beat the whole thing in 11 hours including side quests, getting married, and such, I didn't play it as the "evil" side, but I don't feel like I missed anything. I got it at release, beat it in 6 days, and traded it in and counted my loses...

For every choise a consiquence my ass.... it's more like for every choice... people will either scream when you walk by or chear and you'll either have horns or not.

Had a similar experience, being evil was pretty disappointing. Everybody screaming in terror gets old pretty fast. Even killing a town didn't do much for me.
 
I still can figure out why so many people like this game. I didn't even bother finsihing it because it was so boring.

I got so bored I turned my chracter gay for the hell of it.

So if you get bored one day at home you are just going to engage in some wild gay sex? Nice.

No amount of boredom would ever get me to do that.
I only did it to my Fable chracter because I heard you could and I was like, "what the hell theres nothing really left for me to do now." and I all ready had a wife in every town and was even married to that bitchy queen lady. And Hitting on his sister was going no where.

Uh huh, classic case of a closet homosexual.
 
I thought Fable was a blast while it lasted. I could even see replaying as an evil character at some point.

Hey, 13 months after joining, I am finally a Regular!

I still don't know why people are saying that they did everything they could in the game and beat it in 11 hours. I'm 12 hours into the game, and I have really barely started. It's alot of fun just messing around in the game. I have only done a few quests because I've been doing other things that are fun.

Fable is a great game if you experience it the right way. Have fun in Fable. That's what games are for. It's atleast worth a rental. :)

I'd have to lean towards juicedup1's feeling. I'd much rather get a good 10-15 hours out of a game than a tedious 50 hours....

I agree...Fable was a blast. I'm one to take my time, build my character up, turn over every stone I can, explore, etc...I just don't get those that rush through a game.

Somedisapointment was once to advance to the point-of-no-return, quest-wise...it's extreamly linear from there on out - however if you can make it through the credits and save your game, you can continue on and finish up the rest of the quests - haven't ventured that far yet beyond the end of the game yet but I'm all set once I choose to.

Another gripe of mine was that there was no real motivation (story-wise) to be evil - other that just to BE evil...get it? There's nothing in the game that prods you in either direction - by default you're good - but you have the opportunity to do evil things...I guess it's more of an insane evil. Maybe others have a thought on that.
 
i agree with the lot of you thankfully i only rented the cursed game and had fun for about 3 hours then i died and to do a bunch of bullshit over again
 
I've never liked RPG games but i enjoyed Fable when i rented it & played for like 6hrs because it involves more action. It intrigues me to be able to play a game "good" or "evil".


What it really boils down to is price.
When it gets to the $20 or below range i will buy it.

Definately. My friend got it as soon as he got his X-box and told me he shut it off after the first hour because it was too uninteresting. A lower price would probably persuade me to get it. Renting is a bit annoying. I also HEARD that if you press the black and white buttons at the same time (or something of the sort) your character will fart. Is this true? And if it is... Why?

You can fart without all that crap. There are a number of actions you can do to make people like you or dislike you. Farting is one of them. You can wave, show a muscle, laugh, burp, etc.
 
I thought it was really fun if you take it for it is and not complain about all the stuff that was left out. At it's heart it was a very fun, short, linear hack and slash RPG that was absolutely beautiful to look it and fun to play.

Yes it had it's share of faults, but if you just take it at face value and like hack and slash games, you'll love it.

Why?[/quote]I don't know about that, but Fable has a (sort of) relationship system. Farting is one of them (yeah, I know it seems stupid).

As you go through the game, you get more interactions to use with villagers. In order to get married, you must flirt with someone and give them gifts and then give them a wedding ring and if they have a big enough heart above their head, they will marry you. After that, it will go into a cut scene about how joyful the wedding is. After you get married, you can have sex at night. :D

A friend of mine asked if it was likie Sims in that regard. I told him no since the way they keep how good a relationship and how you get someone to love you is different.
 
You can also swear and give the middle finger. It is a fun game the first time through but you really cant play through it again because you know waht is going to happen
