    Not sure what you're talking about. It was a fun game and I think Fable is usually talked about fondly whenever it's brought up aside from the Molyneux meming.

      He's talking specifically about the Anniversary edition.

    Ganker was harsh on it? I could only imagine it was for some artistic design changes? Isn't it the same exact game?

    Nah, Anniversary is a pain in the ass. The Lost Chapters is still the perfect version, feels nice to play and you can mod it. Anniversary feels fricking awful and the modding scene is dead because modding was made hard, even with a controller it feels like shit and even with a mouse&keyboard the menus fricking suck it's insane.
    Frick this version. Just play The Lost Chapters.

      Fable 2 + Fable 3 complete without GfWL on steam when?

      Don't say that too loud, contrarians will come out of the woodwork saying The Lost Chapters is actually the worst version and only the original is any good.

        If you dare say that you're not contrarian you're just trolling, that's bait, that's not being contrarian like you may actually believe it. I don't feed the trolls. Nobody in their right mind says TLC is the worst edition, it's just not possible.

      Can you explain why without sounding too much like a whiny complaining autist?

        No mouse support in the menus for starters. I immediately uninstalled my pirated copy when I fricking saw there was no mouse on the fricking main menu.

    Good old fable. Loved this game growing up, I must have completed it 3/4 times back to back. Going back to play this game is a punishment though

        It didn't age well, it's not a timeless classic

    Pretty sure the dev team consisted of inexperienced interns creating a graphic update on an existing game. I preordered it and on release it literally didn't even run for me, just kept crashing instantly, and they still denied my refund request. So frick them and valve.

    It doesn't matter because Fable is a bad game and all versions of it are bad. Instead of playing Fable you could play a good game.

    Wish they would've done a pc port of 2. If they updated the UI it would play a lot better, trying to eat or drink anything in that game takes fricking ages.

    Fable is such a weird series, probably DUE to Molyneux's delusions was the only reason they randomly hit the mark with 2 after a successful income from 1. 1's not bad, but 2 polishes off a lot of the jank and perfects the humor. 2 is probably a timeless game with the simplicity of combat and moral decisions, but the fun and meatiness of going from zero to hero with goofy sidequests and characters.

      2's "final boss" is such a joke though
      Dude will literally just kill himself if you stand there long enough

        Wow anon, nice powers of recollection you have there, very cool.

        Reaver shoots him if you wait, dumbass, he doesn't kill himself. How could you bungle that, you fricking absolute buffoon?

    I haven't played it but this remake/remaster/whatever looks like dogshit. The original still looks great IMO and has a great style.

    No, it was absolutely unnessecary and a massive downgrade of the visual style.

    No, it ruined the art style.

    The original was cute western take on anime.

    The remake was pig disgusting slop and ruined the aesthetic.
