User Rating: 8.5 | Fable: The Lost Chapters PC
If you're looking for an addictive, fun and adventurous game you've found it, Fable The Lost Chapters holds a good story line, and great characteristics. It's not a massively big game but it is quite a lot of fun to play, due to a lot of small factors which make it unique. Fable's storyline goes for around 10 hours at average, not including all the side quests you can do, however there isn't allot of them. The main story line is about trying to stop The Famous Jack of Blades who was known as a hero, but is really a villain, the story has allot of twists and surprises, so i can't really tell you anymore without ruining it for you, but it does hold a full-filling adventure. There isn't a really advanced leveling system you collect orbs from where you kill enemies, and you go back to a shrine which can grant you to put the orbs into a certain attribute. The main attributes are Strength, Magic and Skill, each one of these attributes has their own personal skills attached to them, for instance Strength is more heavier weapons and how much damage you do, Magic is spells and how much Magicka you have, and Skill is like Blades and Bow skills. You can build your character to how you want him to be, and you can also have a mixture of all these, because even if you finish the game you can still go out and level up. Another cool feature about this game is you can change your hairstyles, get tattoos, get married etc, it really does how some interesting benefits within it. Your character will, as you go along in the game age, which is quite cool but the problem with this is it's actually rather annoying because your character ages way too fast, before no time you're at the age of 55 before you have finished the game, which is rather stupid because your 55 slaying monsters and doing things you should be at the age of 30-40, having your character age is really unique in a game but they could have made it a little more accurate. However there are ways you can decrease your age in the game but i recommend not bothering because within 1 hour of playing the game your age will increase 7 years. The combat in the game is pretty fun even though it's point and click he does different combos and moves, and this makes it feel like you're a bit more involved in the game. Even though Fable's main storyline is quite short and could be a bit more immersive, after you finish the game you can still go wandering around looking for new armor or trying to unlock chest or hidden items you haven't already got during the game. But on the topic Fable does lack armor and weapon types there's really not allot to select from, and in the end everyone will end up having the same type of armor everyone else does that plays the game. But despite Fable's little lacks of depth, this is still a terrific and addictive game to play and if you enjoy a good RPG, you will get your money's worth by purchasing this game.
