Fable TLC is one of my favorite games of all time! It has a nice storyline and good gameplay that's even better than Fable 2 on the Xbox 360. The downside is that once the game ends you won't feel like playing that much anymore because there's no exciting quests left. But this is a recommended game if your looking for an adventure!

Easily my favorite game of all time. This is a brilliant RPG from Lionhead that still far surpasses any game I have ever played. The combat system is probably one of the best I've ever seen (I have no idea why some reviewers say otherwise), the story is neat without being overwhelming or boring, the choices that you make are quite satisfying and determine several factors further down the road as to what equipment/armor you will use and what story lines you unlock. Yes, the end result is ultimately the same, but I love that Fable didn't try to overextend itself and force several main story lines. It stuck to what it was able to accomplish, unlike so many other games these days are able to do. If you are at all a fan of RPGs or any other type of real-time game, you will absolutely love Fable: The Lost Chapters. I have played this game since the original was released on the Xbox years ago and I still love it to death. No, it is not as deep, complex, or involved as other modern-day RPGs, but that's what I love about it. My only wish is for a higher difficulty setting as the game is just a tad bit too easy, but otherwise this is the most incredible game I have ever played.....Kudos to Lionhead. I only wish they had continued the spectacular design into Fable II and III which are certainly two of the worst RPGs of all time. I can't possibly give this game any less than a 10/10.… Expand

A game for little kids. Bad controls. Terrible UI. Bad level design. Horrible, limited, narrow ethics system. Boring Quests. Naff and irritating voice acting. Bad camera. Boring, easy combat. I would say the user score has been manipulated by Lionshead staff. This game has some value as the kind of experience an adult could share with a child, and some of the writing is ok. For anyone serious about games or gaming definitely give it a miss.… Expand

Okay this was the first game that i every played on the original X-box and I loved it. I still play it today over Far Cry 3, Borderlands 2, and all the other block buster titles that i own. This game is worth it and for only 2.49 on steam you have to get it. Also Fable 2 and 3 were also great game, (more of 2 then 3), but no game that I have every had has been as good of this game... GET IT

This is one of the most fun games I've played despite it's many flaws. Sure it failed to deliver the majority of what was promised but what we got I still feel is a great game. It's reasonably short taking less than 20 hours for me to 100% it but with the amount of times I've replayed it I probably have close to a hundred hours in this game. The flaws just don't bother me as it's clearly not meant to be a challenging game. The ridiculous economy means you can get super rich right off the bat and the supply of potions available in Albion means you're as good as invincible. But the game was still fun for me, if you don't take it seriously you'll enjoy it a lot more. Some people may have expected an Elder Scrolls like RPG but Fable is a lot more light-hearted I feel and it revels in it's hyper-clichéd storyline. I spent a good deal of time with Fable Explorer as well, the only game I've ever really bothered to do any sort of modding with. If it was fun pillaging villages with fireballs and hammers, try shooting 50 bolts of lightning from your hand at once or Berserking till you're taller than most of the buildings in the village. It may be good for reasons the developer didn't quite intent but it's still pretty damn good.… Expand

I've missed this game when it came out on the PC, and I've walked it through only now. I can say that this game still looks and feels nice in 2012. I liked the "fairytale" atmosphere, the alignment features, plus the game has a lot of funny sidequests and minigames. Oh yeah and I also loved the awesome British accent of the NPCs.

Repetitive gameplay, unbalanced combat, a predictable and agonizingly cliche story, a pointless karma system, and tedious (and sometimes broken) side quests make Fable: The Lost Chapters an often boring and entirely passable RPG.

Fable 1 was for me something totally new. So when i started playing this i was like: Well let's see what this will be. After playing it for a few hours i was like. Awesome! I heard people talking about leveling systems and i was like: people is it that hard? It's a adventure game!. You only can but skills like you van buy weapons with money! But this game is totally a classic in his genre. Played it 4 times. Never get bored… Expand

a perfect rpg in every tense,the choices between good and evil,legendary weapons and secrets and a brilliant storyline.undoutebly one of the best games ever,by now the graphics are a bit outdated but the game still feels awesome,you have a whole world to explore,you can buy yourself a home or go adventuring and do loads of side quests although in my opinion the storyline is a bit short but you will pretty much hear that from any fable fan.… Expand

The only shortcoming of this game is the characters in the game do not leave any impression. (Any kind of impression). Well, maybe Jack has a little? Overall, still a fun game, and it is cheap now. If you looking for a fun game play, this is for you. If you looking for a game that has fantastic story, this might not suit you.

Fable is like most Peter Molineaux's games: it promises way much more than it delivers. The concept of this game is amazing: you start as a little innocent kid and make you way to become a powerful warrior throughout the years. There's also an interesting alignment system, just like Black and White (still Molineaux's masterpiece) do good things and you become an angel type of character: do bad things and you'll see horns growing in your forehead, and that is the best thing in this game, you can actually see the changes in your face and body, not only in your alignment, but also scars from battles, body type (strong, thin, tall short) tattoos... you can also have a life, buy houses, get married... the story is also very good (not great, but good).

That looks awesome, but the execution is not as good. First of all, despite the alignment feature, you don't have a lot of choices like the game makes you think you have. It doesn't matter if you're good or evil, the story is pretty much the same from start to finish, and the choices you make to get there are very limited. Another problem I have with this game is the aging system. You start as kid, complete a couple of quests and BAM! cut scene and you suddenly a teenager. A few quests later and BAM! cut scene and you're an adult. That's it. after that you keep getting older but this is not showed in a realistic way, and you face doesn't show much changes. However, that's not a huge issue, it's just a lot different and much simpler than I thought it would be when I got the game.

Another problem I have with this game is the repetition, when I played the first Assassin's Creed, this game came to my mind because they share the same problem: it's fun for a while but it gets kinda of boring when you noticed you're doing the same stuff over, over, over and over again, but fortunately this problem is minimized for the great battle system. Still, it gets boring eventually.

Marriage is pretty lame, your wife (or husband - your character is a guy, but you can be straight, gay or bi in this game) does nothing but say 1 or 2 words when you talk to her. You can have sex but the game goes to a black screen when you do. You can't have kids. The title system is a joke and the worst thing in the game: You get fame by completing quests, so people start to recognize you and show respect (or fear, depending on your alignment) and they always reefer to you by your title (chicken chaser, deathbringer and so on). The problem is that those titles are not gained for what you do in the game, you just go to a merchant and buy those, just like you buy food or a new tattoo. It's ridiculous and annoying.

Like I said before, the battle system is good, very arcade gameplay, like other people already pointed out. Battles are probably the best thing is this game, you have some great skills to learn, and you can build different types of characters (warrior, mage, rogue or a mix of those) and to me that's what makes this game a little above average. There's also a lot of different sets of armors and weapons to use that are also great. Anyway, despite all the bad aspects, it's a good game if you don't expect too much. I had fun playing it. Peter Molineaux surely have great ideas, and he already prove he can make games that are more than a game but a work of art. Black and White is a masterpice and it's because of that game I keep waiting for the next game from him. The problem, like I said in the beginning, is just that: great Ideas not executed so well. I haven't played Fable 2 (not on pc, why?), and I'm on the fence in getting Fable 3 (probably will) so I can't say if those problems with the first game (or what I see as problems) were fixed or not. For now I can only hope someday I'll get my hands in something made by Molineaux so great as B&W.… Expand

Great game, but not the greatest. It has some drawbacks such as areas of combat that are too difficult, and the leveling system isn't my favorite. Some of the more positive things are the re-playability of the game. You can choose to be evil/good or somewhere in between. Both sides have their ups and downs. If you have an extra 10 bucks layin around, and want a game to kill some time, I would recommend going to steam and downloading this game.… Expand

This game started it all for me, all the video games I play now, the reason I am a PC gamer is because of this game and it has won my personal title of favourite game. The game play and storyline are all very solid and even competes with todayâ

It's one of the best RPG-like games! Very good plot and it's very beautiful! When it was first released i was playing it on and on! And when i've ended it i had started it again!

This game is fantastic, even to this day. The combat is still solid enough to meet today's standards in well made games. There's plenty of different armor sets, and you can mix match. I played this game when it first came out, and I still play it today-- the story line is a gripping one, and lets you choose here and there what you want to do based on bad or good. Your appearance even changes due to the choices. There's multiple ways of making money for an Action RPG, from just killing monsters, to renting out houses and collecting the money. I have played all the Fables, and the first is still by far the best. If you haven't played it and are skeptical on buying it, I highly recommend this game.… Expand

One of the first RPG games i ever played (first played on the first xbox!), You cant knock this game as it was the same gen as Elder scrolls Morrowind etc in my opinion sucks (but Skyrim rocks), anyway Fable TLC = 10+++ A+++ and altogether geneius!

a very good rpg with a lot of stuff to do many secret items and quest ! a very good and strange story that i havent expect it ! it was a lot of fun to me i have play it for a lot of hours its so bad that falbe 2 and 3 wasnt even close to the first title.... :(

Best rpg out there, puts lesser rpgs like baldur's gate and Fable III to shame. ggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooodddddddddddddddddddddd game.

One of the first games to offer a variable experience and a main character that changes dynamically depending on the player's actions. A real pioneer. Any fan of RPGs (old and new) should give it a try.

The best game I have ever played.
I must have completed this game 30 times yet I still am not bored.
Best of all fable games you just go in their with your beastly plate mail armour and mash up the enemy,s
I recommend this game to any gamer i also have this game on Xbox but I would go for the pc one because of the sharper images and higher graphics capability.

This game is an absolute master piece compared to the other 2. I loved this game, the date i was set in and the story was enough for me. This game has a very large world with many great secrets to be discovered. The story and gameplay is what separates this from so many other games of its type. Obvious buy you will not be disappointed.

You can assume that when it's literally painful to press the "off" button while playing this game, it's a phenomenal game.

This game is one of the best I've ever played. I've been playing it since it came to PC, and I have to say I enjoyed it even more than it's Xbox 360 sequel. The game is thrilling and open, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a great time!

For all its potential, Fable is a cautionary tale of what happens when developers buy their own hype. From underwhelming combat to disappointing lack of options and unintuitive controls, Fable fails to produce.

The whole ideas in which the games is based are fantastic. It is however less wonderous than the literature about it suggests. The very interesting concept of actions having a repercussion on your character is superficially explored. Bad things are black, good things are white, no moral dilemmas in reality, and it's consequences are not that grave. I have rouble with games that give you a divinely rendered world that is filled with the impossible places to go (invisible walls, no jumping over fences, rocks.... well over anything). Story is not very enticing, or, for that matter, interesting. Very common RPG fare and predictable at several spots.
Graphics and ambiance are very nice. Voice acting is superb and many instances of it quite funny. CHaracter faces have a lot of personality. Many nice details and proto-ideas, but that is all. Unless you devote yourself at just the exploratory side of trying all chance games, getting all tattoes, experimenting with all magics or physical paths, the games is a breeze. Super short. I think I understand why this chapters had been misplaced to begin with, we don't quite get to see them as a real treasure.… Expand

Asume game with a good balance of hand to hand fighting, archery, and magic. It's great because you can play for hours and still not be finished. THere are tones of side quest to gain gold and experiance from and many other things to do. It is awsome that you can control almost every aspect of you life from being good or evil to getting married. I would recommend this game to anyone.

I loved this game. I just got it a week ago, and I'm already on my second playthrough. The age system is interesting, especially since the more you use magic, or "will", the older your character gets. It's also fun to be a dirtbag :).
Also, I love how the guy who didn't have English as a second language typed better than most of the other people here. (reviewing people can take that last part out if they see fit)… Expand

A boring, super-linear play experience with flat characters and a broken leveling system. The magic is totally unbalanced, and combats are impossible unless you use the one spell that makes them too easy. And let's not forget that if you complete all the side-quests, your character ends up 55 by the time you save your 40 year old mother.

It was a very good game although the story line could have been better and a bit longer and the graphics could have been better this game was ok (for $19)

This was an alright game. Can't really go anywhere with this game. The quests seems boring. It could have been better if it had a more complex plot to the whole thing. I agree that it is good if your under 10 if not don't buy this game. It gets kinda boring......

One of the best ever adventure game. I haven`t seen better game in this category for a long time.

This game is freakin awesome! still trying to get that sword in the stone...but i'll get it, but this game is the best PC game I have played in a while.

A good Action-RPG with great graphics, sounds and voice acting. This game is probably not for pure RPG enthusiasts, however, as it only allows you to control one character in a very Legend of Zelda manner. The plot seems facile at first but becomes rather horrifying later on, giving one the sense of playing through a fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm. Jack of Blades is perhaps one of the most memorable villains in computer villain history. This is one case, however, where the expanded content is less impressive than the original game, almost making you wish that the lost chapters had stayed lost allowing you to finish with an otherwise tight story.… Expand

I love this game! What I have found in other games where you can be good or evil, I have found being good to be boring and unrewarding. However, in this game, I actually find being good fun. Also, it is very hard to remember all the things I am supposed to be doing. And I mean that in this best possible way. Once again, I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!

This game was infantile from the very beginning. Do not buy this game if you are over the age of 10. The quests are boring, combat is simplistic, and the graphics are pretty... but even on a good PC (not top of the range I admit) it stutters like a crazed monkey.

For those who liked final fantasy this is the most comparacing to it; for me it's even better because you can draw your destin as you were in real life. Also the items, magics and all that are the best. The only less good thing is that the graphics could be better. But they're above the normal.

Decent game. Too much running around, not enough action. Also a lot of repeated areas, just different things to do in them.

The game is great fun but every time I try and spend my experience points it crashes. I have heard that there a quite a few bugs in the game that causes crashes. Things to do with video cards, sound cards, themes (mainly from people who use Windows Blinds, which by the way sucks since it uses alot of system resources), and what ever it is that causes the game to crash fro me. I have not figured that part out yet since Microsoft and fourms are no help. I would definately recommend the game (having finished it for Xbox so I know what the whole game is like) if you can get around the bugs.… Expand

Gothic style but better because you can chose your own future.

This game is hands down one of the best action adveturs that i have seen in a long time. Fable brings character customization to an all new level. There are no other games like it on the market. Its a must have for all xbox fans!

Go Lionhead Studios. Even if this game is rather short - but it's so damn fun you'll want to replay it a good number of times to get the full experience. Fun, that's not a word you hear a lot anymore in video-game-land. Everything has to be an immense challenge, graphically stunning, and introduce groundbreaking gameplay. Fable really has none of that, but it's a great time. You'll spend more time playing this game than any other game you've bought this year. Not out of an obligation to get your 50 bucks worth, but because you're having too much fun.… Expand

Superbly crafted game with solid graphics, could use more quests though.

This is an amazing game- although it is a little shorter than some other rpgs it more that makes up for it with the costomizability, and choices that other RPGs wouldent even think of giving you.

I rate the PC version 7.9/10 I rate the XBOX version 7.7/10 I

It is fun.

Well this is the best game I have play for a loooong time... but wondering... why isnt the world bigger?

Really great rpg very arcade gameplay and a good history.

Probably the second best game to be ported from the xbox, first being full spectrum warrior, imo this game is what rpgs of the future will be like, i'd like to see somthing that wowed me like FF7 did on the PS1 but i dont think its ever gonna happen it looks like realtime action/adventure rpg's are the way things are going sadly no turn based rpgs :( that said, Fable is easliy worth 15 hours of gameplay, close to 20 if you really want to drag things out n do all the quests n stuff id've liked it to be open ended so you can continue after completing it but still my best game of 2005 thus far.… Expand

Good game. Might do with a little tune-up on the quest explinations (for instance the one with the "Fout Blue Mushrooms", where u can't find-out exactly where one is if you didn't pay attention at first) and on the skills. being a mage gets you relatively easy past all the monsters, because you get to use really powerful spells, but as an archer you pretty-much don't stand a chance. As a global idea, the game is worth playing, it being a good spare time-filler. Aaa... I particulary liked the new ideas, like tatoos, haircuts, fishing and digging for treasure. (English is not my mother language, so sorry for the spelling. Enjoy the game!)… Expand
