Fable is visually a beautiful game. There is so much detail in the backgrounds; villiages; people; buildings...just beautiful. There are many things you can do in the game that you can't in many others. You have a lot of freedom to move around (warp) to and from places. The little side quests that it sends you on help build up you experience but can be annoying.
The game is very forgiving in that it warns you before you die to save yourself. My only real complaint about this game (which I found truly disappointing) is that it was way too short. We've all waited and waited for it's release and it only lasted about 16 hours for me. Of course I'll go back and try different roles, but I was really hoping it would last alot longer than it did. You fight to get to Jack Blade; you beat him and that's it!?? I'm sure I'm not the only out there that felt cheated in the ending. I hope that in the sequel (which I'm assuming there will be one) will be longer.
