Solid 7/10 games some parts done well others like open world flow not so good. Im just hoping with this next one they nail the gameplay. Cos style wasn’t an issue for fable.

One of my favorite series. I was really disappointed they didn't mention anything about a Fable Collection (for PC especially) during the event.

The first Fable sat loose in a random stack of discs in my house for months before I ever played it. I think somebody left it behind and just never came to get it back. I seen it sure, but knew nothing about it and didn't ever bother as I didn't play my Xbox that much....and then I decided to check it out. I played through it at least 4 times. Absolute classic. From there I got the other two as they came out and loved them.

Demon Doors were such wonderful additions. Always fun to try and figure out how to unlock them, and then wonder what treasures were inside.

@@Kopjekoffie980 Fable is so high on my list solely due to it's reactivity and Art-Style. Very few games are even half as reactive. Kotor 1 I don't agree with at all, Kotor 2 I do. But, it mostly just because it doesn't deal in absolutes. It's a novel concept, the fact that very few... anything entertain the idea that not everything is exactly as it seems makes it seem better then it actually is. Fable and Kotor 2 are different kinds of RPGs though. Kotor 2 is CRPG and Fable is... I'm wanting to say Reactive RPG, it's obviously an RPG there is no debating that (I've seen some argue it's not) but it's also obviously a very different kind of RPG you rarely see. Say what you will about Peter Molyneux, these kinds of Reactive games were his specialty. Crackdown kind of does something similar, but only takes it a quarter of the way. The reactivity only really shows in your character and eventually all the Morphs start to look the same. I have a creeping suspicion the new Fable will not live up to the old one. But, if anything of note comes from this it's that hopefully Microsoft will Remaster Fable 2 and port it to PC.

Oh and my one HUGE hate about Fable 2 and 3. Not being able to thump Reaver… or even kill him because he’s such an evil twit.

I liked them all even Fable 3. Ofc 1&2 are better but still. So excited for a new Fable. Was so sad after what happened with Lionhead so glad it’s back baby.

Having only played 3 as a kid I loved it. Still hold it near and dear to my heart, can’t miss what you ain’t had after all.

When the music kicks in at 0:38 , DAMN that took me back. Just made all those original Xbox memories come back all at once. Fable, Kotor, Halo CE, my official Xbox magazine, Gorillaz CD and Mountain Dew.

Fable is one of my all time favourite RPG series and actually the first RPG game I ever played with my older brother when I got my first console. Got a lot of love for these games and can’t wait for the new one!

Always been interested in this series, never learned about it, super excited to hear your take Matty

Your right on the money with fable 3 as that was my first fable game and even after i played fable 1 and 2 i still love it for getting me into the series and for just being a reminder of a simpler time.

Fable 1 was my absolute favorite! I have both the OG Lost Chapters version and the Anniversary Edition! When I was growing up, some friends that lived a few doors down from me had an Xbox and had Fable, and I remember watching them play and was just very impressed at the rpg mechanics at the time. I remember back when you had to buy things with Microsoft points, I bought this on XBL and played through it on the 360, and had lots of fun! I want to do another run-through on PC before the new one comes out! I remember not liking Fable 2 or 3 as much though..

Fable 2 was always my favorite. Playing that game as a kid hit so different. I havent played 1. Fable 3 wasnt just great story wise, but i liked the variety of mixing powers together

Fable TLC was the game that broke me out of WoW addiction back in 2009-2010. I was pretty much a one game Antoine at the time

its a whole nother experience playing this game without knowing about molyneux as a kid. Great game for me who never played a game like this before then

I just started fable anniversary and I’m going to play the rest. I’ve only played 3 as far as I can remember. But I knew only one person on KZread would probably have a full video on these games. Thank you for the content!

Good job posting this video right after the new game reveal. May the algorithm be in your favor

Beat you to into the am lol I have multiple purchases from the site. I love it! Glad you're checking it out bro!

Yes! I remember being on Christmas break and staying up super late working at the blacksmith shop so I could buy a house in Fable 2

I love fable, The Lost chapters+anniversary is one of the couple games I've done countless playthroughs of, there's just something there that's become part of me. I don't hate 3 nearly as much as it seems most people do, after reflecting on it I do think that part of my attachment to 1 and 2 relies on the protagonist being silent. It looks like the new Fable's protagonist isn't silent so that's a shame however I am very open to seeing what kind of game it ends up being, it is never going to be the same as the Fable I love but I am not going to completely disregard it as "not fable" because of a change of direction, I'm going to have to wait til I have the game in my hands to truly find out what I think.

I remember playing fable when I first got my og xbox from an older cousin. This was after the 360 came out, but he had a few old games including Jade empire and Fable tlc. I was around 7 at the time and I remember fable was the first "Video game" I've played. The music and the character history made me super intrigued about the story and anytime I hear the music the nostalgia hits me like a truck. It really is a great game and to many a nostalgic experience.

hyped to see your game matty

I was such a big fan of the first fable I wrote a eulogy to the guild master for a presentation for school.

Fable TLC is my favorite game of all time. I don't think any other video game gave so much personality to it's towns and villages. Nothing really slaps you in the face like hearing the Oakvale theme, or starting the Darkwood escort mission quest.

That music in the beginning god tier

I was a PlayStation kid so I missed this one. This review makes me want to pick the remaster up on pc. Thanks for this throwback man 😎

Fable is just pure magical and special. Absolute must have!

Fable 3 was a total summer game for me. Got it on summer vacation between my sophomore and junior year of high school and couldn’t put it down. Been replaying it on PC this year actually

I loved these games! Brings back good memories

i loved all 3 fables when i was playing them, but the older they are, the less i remember about them now. I barely remember 1 at all, except for the fact that i loved it. In 2(?) i do remember running around a lot wearing the chicken costume that you showed. I think there was one point when i was a green ghost for part of the game, and i was dressed as the chicken, so I was a clear green chicken ghost. I took a photo of it which I hardly ever did back then. 3 I remember the most. Buying and selling property, how part of the land was moving into the steam age, the hidden gnomes(???) which i was still missing at least 1, the super cool quest where you became a d&d character and ran around on someone's table game, and most of all, accidentally doing the ending when i wasnt ready, and i got upset and quit playing

The christmas feel i think comes from the Cristmas Carol setting like you might see Scrooge walking down the street, that and the Elfman sounding soundtrack echos Christmas in Edward Scissorhands.

Damn the new Fable really is hitting the mark. Will we get a Retro Rebound opinion on the trailer? There's something to be said about all the "controversy" around the hero's appearance and I think, not to be unkind, that is part of the point, they're a person! A very charismatic one which for the player character is a must! Actually, as a thought, maybe she's a side character?

Never finished the first fable but i really like your content so maybe i will give it a try until the new one comes out.

how do the collars fit for INTO THE AM shirts? i hate when theyre loose

5:00 That is so true.. I get nostalgia thinking about reading the guides in the game back in the day on the way home. Sometimes I reread those things until they fell apart even after I play the game just because 😅

To answer your question in one word, YES! Fable and Fable II are absolute gems and Fable III, is not bad. It just didn't take the series anywhere really new or exciting.

Fable was the game that got into RPGs I had a best friend who use to play the games finish and let me borrow or have. Don’t know where he is to this day but hope he’s doing good

The original first Fable game is the only one i played because later ones were X-Box exclusive and were not on PC as far as i know so don't know much about those but the first one was a real special one for me, i really liked the story and the style of the game itself, a very fun game to play

My cousin got me Black Ops 1 for Christmas and I didn’t even ask for it so it’s always been a Christmas game for me lol.

Actually started plying through the Fable 1 again about 3 months or so ago… nostalgia is VERY strong with this one… totally enjoying it.. Range/Magic still my fav..

I just played fable for the first time today and finished it in one day can’t wait to play 2&3

I’ve very happy we are getting a new one. I replay 2 and 3 every year. Not so much to completion these days. But I’ve actually never beaten the first one. I was new to rpgs like that as a kid and got stuck. I’m planning to finally go back and play here soon now that I do have a series x.

Fable two was the first one I played then when anniversary edition came out my mom payed 40 dollars new for it and I was in love. The third was amazing for me aswell bc it was just the next interation in a franchise I grew up with

For fable 1 I have the lost chapters and I think I still have fable 2 I’m not sure but I personally prefer fable 2 over 1 mainly cuz of its story

Love all the fables. What other game do your choices actually follow through the whole game the way this game does. I hope the new one takes all 3 and makes its 10x better.

Excellent review my friend

I always wanted to play fable, but I played a lot of mmos in the mid 00s and early 10s a kid. I did play fable 1 and 2 in 2010, freshman year my homie lent them to me. Had a lot of fun with them

Fable III is my favorite. I like that you have to actually rule the kingdom and make decisions. The co-op is also great. Just another one of those things where I'll never understand the hate.

Fable 1 on Xbox, we played it all night for New Years 2004. Ahh the good times.

I’m playing all Fable now and is pure love Haven’t finish the second one but definitely I will and 3 too 💚

old stickers are easy to remove btw 1: remove manual, game and box art from case. 2: use some hand sanitizer to soak the sticker. the higher the alcohol percentage the better. as it soaks rub untill the paper rubs off. this should leave you with the sticker residue, if so 3: get some "goo gone" , they sell it at the dollar tree, dab light amount on to a tissue. then lightly rub said tissue in small circles on the case the sticker residue as well as other built up grime should come off easily. allow to air dry about 5 min then reassemble your collectible! :)

I loved both Fable 1 & 3 despite the flaws in both but haven't done Fable 2 justice yet. Interested in what they will do with the new fable game & hope they keep the soul from the original series but improve almost every aspect..

Funnily enough when i played the game Kingdoms Of Amalur I kept thinking that was more the game i wanted Fable to be

Fable 4 needs to stick to the core of the Fable franchise. It’s all about making choices, facing consequences, seeing those consequences reflected in the world and in your character. And, of course, it needs trees you can plant that grow in real time.

If that last part actually happens, that would be funny.

I was hoping that someone would remaster the trilogy like BioWare did w/ the Mass Effect trilogy. I would love to replay the trilogy w/ graphical upgrade, bug fixes, improved combat & AI, etc. I tried replaying Fable 2 (which is my favorite of the trilogy) but stopped after a while b/c of bugs I kept encountering... The final straw was a demon door that wouldn't work. I think the series is popular enough that a "legendary" remaster would sell well...

Off topic but regarding the sponsor in the beginning for T shirts, accessories and clothes id recommend "Red Bubble." I don't know why it hasn't been anyones sponsor. Far more custom options. 10/10...Also Fable is goated haha

Amazing , thanks for revisit

Fantastic video. I remember in high school, my friend raving about this, and always thinking it sounded so cool. I’ve never had Xbox anything, and now you have me thinking I should buy an old Xbox just to play this. If I did make that investment, what do you think should be my entry move, going from someone with zero Xbox currently around me? Buy an old console and the first? A true start?

I remember on the 360 changing some time settings to get more gold or xp and it was a cool little glitch that was before youtube was blown up with tutorials

Fable is the perfect RPG starter, it's what made me fall in love with things like Skyrim later. My daughters will be playing some Fable as soon as they are old enough.
