and with the The Lost Chapters. Amazing memories playing this
My only problem with The Lost Chapters is that they changed Jack of Blades’ voice to a generic deep demonic-sounding one. His original voice was better.
I worked on this game in QA. When we got new builds, I was the one who got to create save files for the rest of the team so they didn’t have to start from the beginning each time. Got to the point where I could beat it in about 6.5 hours and minimal upgrades (only the time-slowing spell, iirc). Not bad for a chicken chaser!
Ain’t no grind like retesting the same shit over and over as QA
I played this game as a kid, and I remember it being really hyped, but I also remember the game feeling pretty short. I think I beat it in a day close to launch and never really picked it up again. It’s very believable that you could beat it in 6.5 hours.
Childhood??? Fuck i’m old!
I’m playing through “Fable: Anniversary” right now, and the nostalgia is like a drug.
I found it dated and rough, I really want a remake now
I remember playing this on PC when I was like 18… once I found the infinite money glitch with the trophies, I literally ragequit and never picked it up again
Being able to marry the dockworkers, great RPG.
Even though the world wasn’t tremendously large, it was extremely immersive. All the nicknames and the cool ways in which your character developed based on how you played was awesome and so much fun. They tried to recreate it over and over and all Peter Molyneux had to do was make what he made bigger
It’s truly incredible how Microsoft just completely let the ball be dropped on this series for over a decade. This could’ve been one of their huge exclusive properties. Guess it still could, depending on if the reboot is any good.
I got an Xbox second hand after being a PlayStation family all my life. It had this an another similar game that I think had dragons that were both so much fun.
Yall need to check out Dene’s (the good dev of Fable) new game Moonring. It’s in the style of the old Ultima games (more nostalgia!) and it’s FREE. (Highly recommend going with the “beta” branch as he’s updating on a regular basis there and much less broken than the main.)
Tried it again recently and it’s rough. Very dated. Still love it, but I want a remake now.
They’ve remastered games from 4-5 years but haven’t touched this one yet… It’s due for a good remaster
It does have a remaster though?
I think it has an anniversary edition, but not a new gen remake
that is the remaster. It’s updated graphics and audio.
