 Acos's recommendation | |
Linear but open ended.
Tons of social interaction for the single player.
Moral choices require thought.
Starts slow.
Somewhat repetitive.
Too many load times.
Here's my view on Fable: I'm not an Role Playing Game (RPG) player. I'm more of a First Person Shooter (FPS) type. Halo and Halflife are my favorites. But I thought I'd give this game a chance. I started with the game and quickly became disinterested with the slow beginning. But after a few days, I came back to it and decided to see just what I could do with this game. After a couple of hours I became completely engrossed in the game. It's become something I look forward to when I come home from work. The character development, the aquisition of power, strength, and guile, and especially the will powers. I find the use of magic in the game simple to use (which is not common) and very useful. Too often RPG's are too complex to hold much interest for me. But, in the end, I found that the interface with this game had become second nature. I would almost not call this an RPG, but more of an FPS with bladed weapons and magic, as well as character development. I know it's not perfect, but for a game, it's highly enjoyable and visually stunning. And the most fun is playing single player with a girlfriend that constantly reminds you how to treat the women...laugh out loud.
