Just got back from picking up my copy.. opening it now... and gonna play it. I'll post impressions later.

Ginkasa · 09-15-2004, 04:58 PM

I got mine yesterday, but I haven't had enough time to play it for more than 45 minutes or so at a time. What I have seen, though, has been pretty good. I've had fun.

I'll maybe post more when I get farther (unless someone posts something that says what I would say anyway, denying my extra post the right to exist).

Just played nearly 2 hours of the game.

I like it, I like it a lot. I'm not sure exactly what I could say besides that, you all know the basics of the game, can't comment on anything much more than that until I get farther.

But yeah, I love it so far.

I second that.

I'm a good chunk in, and I have to say this game is awesome. The only real complaint I have against is....marriage. What is the bloody point to it? I spent a good while flirting and flexing and posing for this brown haired girl and spent far more money than I would like on gifts. Finally, she started saying things like, "A wedding ring would look good on my finger." (subtle), so I went and spent a fortune on a wedding ring. I marry her and we move into a house I had bought (I had actually planned on renting it out, but then realized I'd to live in something besides the bar if I were married). I stand around. She talks about how happy she is and how cool I am. Several times.

That has been my entire marriage experience. I did get a dowry of 250 (that's two-hundred fifty....period...s'all), but that doesn't even dent the money I spent on her rather than good armor or weapons in my quest to rid the world of evil.

She's not even all that pretty.

I'm staying single when I get older...

Just KILL her. That's probably what I'll do when I get the game (hopefully soon)...I'm a sicky though.

I finished my first run through the game about an Hour ago. Finished all good (Halo and all) at the age of 55. I even had magic tats from my constant use of Force Push and Lightning. I was a strong guy though, Got up to 6 in Physique and 5 in Speed. Here's a pic of my guy. I had to take it with my camera phone cus the video camera left that green bar in the middle.

Dark Samurai · 09-16-2004, 10:30 AM

He looks like Zero from the KoF series.

Well I played about a total of 15 hours the first time through and I'm sure I missed A LOT. I only did about 5 sub quests and didnt buy any houses or even get all the tattoes/haircuts/keys/armor types. I still need to find the legendary weapons too. I'm gonna go through good again but this time I'll steal a bunch and wont use as much magic so I wont turn out grey and white.

Canyarion · 09-16-2004, 03:08 PM

How do you get older? In real-time or after certain actions?
I mean, can you play longer than 15 hours?

Acebot44 · 09-16-2004, 03:21 PM

Oh yeah. You can play as long as you want, but after you finish the main quest, no more quests will be given out at the guild, you'll have to find them on paths and in towns. You can still get married, buy houses, all that good stuff too. This game is all about the gameplay and not that much on story, so you'll play it as long as you like because you can find things to do on your own. Hell, walk around a listen to the different reactions you get from people after farting on them. Get people drunk, get yourself drunk, kick chickens, become champions in the bar games.

You age in three ways. 1. When you level up your skills you age about .7 years I believe. 2. When you finish a major point in the story, you'll go onto the next chapter and age a couple years. 3. When you use the will(magic), you'll gradually age everytime you use it, in real time, but it's so small you wont notice it that much till you look at your character after a while.

Fable is here... I am overcome with joy...

DarkMaster · 09-16-2004, 07:49 PM

Contrary to various reviews, this game isn't exactly easy. Especially the sub quests, having a lot of health potions doesn't mean jack all, don't know what IGN was talking about.
