This was a surprise to see this game as a review, let alone in my recommendeds in 2023 lol. One of the best games created, and still games dont have some of the features this game did back in the xbox era. 10/10 all day long.
@@USNEM We didn’t have internet to overhype games when that game launched lol. Tbh when that game came out. Halo was over shadowing everything in that era
Like you, I played this game like crazy as a kid. Always wished games would be like fable. Just played the anniversary after playing TLC 20 years ago. What a great game. So ambitious.
Fable II was easily one of my favorite gaming experiences on the 360. Just loved it. Never got around to playing this though. Definitely will give it a shot! Very nice review by the way.
I played this game so many times back in the day. It was really fun returning to it after so long. I'm tempted to play through the whole trilogy now. Really hoping the one in development actually releases & ends up being great.
I got this game with my xbox when I bought it in 2004. This was the start of my love for gaming. Fable is still one of my favourite games until this day. Fable 2 was also very good but never came close to the first in my opinion.
I absolutely love Fable, and really enjoyed your review. I think the first Fable has the best story and really wish they would go back to the era of heros. I also can't stand the way they changed Jack's voice for the anniversary edition. His voice was perfect as it was. He is also one of my favortie villains of all time, such an amazing character design.
Thank you very much. I completely agree that it has the best story, and it would really be cool to go back to the era of heroes. It would also be cool to see a bit more of Scarlet Robe's (protagonist's mom) story.
I don't know where you came from, dude, but this is a great first video to see. Fable is one of my favorite games ever! I really hope Playground Games can get it right when they finally release the reboot.
@@pungentfunk I felt the same way about it but hopefully they pull it off and surprise us when it actually releases. It definitely seemed to lose the charm of the original games. I fear they will be making it too “realistic” when the original art style was part of what made them so great.
This game and many others around this time period were such fantastic games that today I’m simply left trying to scratch the itch with no substitutes that even come close obviously the graphic department doesn’t seem so great now but that in itself says something about how great they were I still consider this the pinnacle of gaming and I will die on that hill
now imagine they simply made a remake of this game, and applied Molyneux's original promises and the interactivity of BotW/TotK. I would never need to buy a new game again! XD
FINALLY someone else said it too! I really disliked the change to Jack's voice in Lost Chapters. Me, my dad, and my sisters all played the original a LOT. One day, somewhere around 2007-ish, walking through a thrift store, i go to the games section, to the PC stuff, and there's an unopened Fable: The Lost Chapters, for like $15. My dad bought it for me, and a few hours in, the change to Jack's voice was immediately noticed and disliked by me and my sisters. Otherwise, everything about it was just good fun. I found lost chapters to be way more silly with a lot me going yeah okay game, sure.
Jack is one of my favorite villains, and I really hope he's featured in a future game. Sadly though, I don't think we'll get his old sinister voice. It would have been nice if Fable: Anniversary had offered some sort of toggle for the voice option.
Really random that UA-cam recommended this video to me. But I'm glad it did. Nicely done video. You've got some great potential as a creator. I'll subscribe to your channel. Great work. Nicely paced, no dumb jokes, well written and excellent, clear narration. I'll keep an eye on your channel.
Love this review! I played the original Fable when it came out in 2004, but I never got that far into it. I haven't had an Xbox in a long time, but I hope Fable Anniversary plays well on the Steam Deck!
What a coincidence! I never had an OG XBox or 360 (until like 3 years ago), but Fable Anniversary has been on my radar since it was released. And here we are today with a recent review and a Spring Steam Sale on 2023... what a time to experience this old game that the XBox fanbase likes so much. Thanks for the review ~
I was unaware. I just read that it was due to Lionhead wanting to portray the demonic possession of the mask. I understand what they were going for, but I don't know if it was necessary.
im used to new videogames, i struggle playing oldies because of the clunky feel generally, but fable 1 is one of the very few games i go back to, such as fallout new vegas and stalker call of pripyat, fable 1 its a beauty of a game, great video!
I have play fable one, fable the lost chapter and fable anniversary. for style I would say first fable Jack's voice did sound more sinister. They did change jack of blades voice in lost chapter, more than likely to make sound more demonic.
I use to work 3rd shift working with special needs, so id play my og xbox to stay awake at night at work.... it was hilarious to play this the one night i had a coworker there... shes in no way a gamer so the whacky dialogue had me cracking up .. she was listening to it sitting on her phone
If I remember correctly the Lost Chapters was where they upgraded Jack Of Blades Voice. I'm still gutted to this day they never continued the 'Blades' storyline which was heavily hinted just prior to the release of Fable 2.
I'm with you. But only time will tell. Though I'm glad I didn't buy an Xbox at the mere announcement this time, as I did with the Xbox One. At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if a newer Xbox model releases first.
I love this game and I’m currently playing the whole trilogy rn , I also like that every protagonist after the first game are the first fable 1 hero’s descendants , I think it adds to all the games being connected too . I also wonder how is the fable 1 hero’s sister in the second game because fable 2 takes place about 500 years after fable 1 . I plan on going the evil side and marrying lady grey .
If anything deserves a complete update.. The original Fable. Not an HD upgrade.. a remake! I'm excited for F4, I only hope they don't screw it up.. but I don't trust devs anymore. I'll wait till the game is out for a while and lokk at spoiler free reviews way before buying.
Canonically, the Hero of Oakvale wouldn't dress as another Hero. Though a fantastic addition, I agree it would much better be suited as loot. That would require much story reworking as you hunted down each Hero (easily done) or witnessed their retirement by other means. For aesthetic, I used the Assassin's Chest Piece with Bandit Head Gear. I wanted to mimic the intro Lionhead character.
Same here. I'm very concerned that we didn't really get to see any gameplay after waiting all these years after the initial teaser (on top of an entire console generation with a canceled game).
Fable, a masterpiece! I remember reviewing the Anniversary years back, my verdict was "Why?" it's a very minor upgrade imo and the original visuals hold nostalgic value, whereas the newer ones do not, and are only mildly "better"
hob goblin cave for leveling was goated for sure. I would love to see some off the wall Hob Goblins revenge type shit in the new Fable and where the old Hobby cave was an enormous hobby pops out and start wreaking havoc...... ahhh my dreams
I decided to give the Fable games a try and of course I'm starting with this one and real talk... Why am I feeling nostalgic to a game I've never played!?
The best way to earn lots of gold in Fable is to become an apple merchant LOL🤣🤣🤣 no seriously. Man after all of these years i still love this game. Other than that a great video keep up the great work👍 And greetings from the Netherlands🇳🇱
I've heard that buying & selling goods between traders is the quickest way to earn gold, but I've always collected rent. In the original version it was much easier to purchase all properties with the time freeze glitch.
I’m playing it now for the first time in steam deck. It is a fun game I can’t believe it was created in 2004. Even the original looked way better than other games from that time. The gameplay is great I hope fable 4 just improves upon it instead of completely changing it
i played the game when it came out in 2004 and i loved it, i still have my copy of the original game and TLC and i bought Anniversary, Fable 2 and Fable 3. i'm actually replaying the trilogy right now, i'm on Fable 3! a note on Jack's voice though, they actually changed that in The Lost Chapters and ya it made me sad. his old voice just fits so much better. i'm excited for the new Fable though, i know a lot of people are ragging on it but that seems to be the norm these days, to dog pile on a game before it comes out because, hold on * checks notes * one of the characters looks ugly. yup. sounds about right.
I still have my original copy from 2004, as well as 2 and 3. I hope to have time to replay the sequels sometime soon. I hope the new Fable ends up being good, but the fact that gameplay wasn't really shown, especially after waiting all of these years is a little worrying.
I recently played through it again for the 5th or 6st time. I played the Anniversary edition and enjoyed it just as much as I did the other times. I really wish they'd port 2 to the PC.
I really liked fable anniversary only thing I wish they tweaked a bit more would have been the lock on the arrows sometimes you will be locked on a enemy and 3 feet away and your arrow goes the opposite direction, but i actually really loved playing the game you can tell they put a lot of thought and effort into making it a good experience
Did you know if you add a sharpening augmentation to the Bereaver sword the attack power equals 315. The same stat as the solus great sword. I would usually add the lightning augment so it can be the opposite of the solus great sword. There was a trick to the increase in attack power, you had to either add it in the 2nd or 3rd augment slot.
Yes, this would be great. Characters have always been somewhat customizable with haricuts, tattoos, and outfits, but a little bit more control over the appearance of our Hero would be awesome.
i would love to see a universal port not just switch I think these console exclusive are an outdated buisness moddel and only hurt the gaming industry far more than it helps one comapny or another
lol, I know that's more efficient, but it's always the way I've done it. Granted, the first 50 times I played I did have the time freeze glitch (original release).
IMO the jack of blades voice in the remaster was honestly a welcome change. 2004 jack voice : 🤓 did u know hes crowned arena champion? 2014 jack voice: seems deeper and a lot more intimidating.
Glad to know I wasn't the only one who hated the new Jack voice. It just sounds comical. Before he actually sounded intimidating.. now it sounds like they tried to make him sound intimidating.
Ive played through the game 5 times. The only other game thay i can say the same for is morrowind. The game is pure fun from beginning to end. Great video.
"based on and lovingly parodied by the UK". While yeah, it was very british... It was made in Britain, lead by British Peter Molyneux.. I think it was more a British take on the RPG genre, if anything. You can't parody yourself, it was just literally british humour.
Why doesn't xbox make cool games like this anymore? We got Halo Infinite, and they took a huge break. They've been saying the games are on the way for the last decade. Finally Starfield will be out soon, but I don't understand how PS is able to push out game after game, while Xbox who's acquiring studio after studio doesn't have hardly any exclusives.
The first game is still the best by far. The sequels just became convoluted. Sure guns were a cool concept.. but to me, they took away fromm the game.. rather than added to it. In 3 your weapons evolved as you used them.. why not just be able to customize them? They dropped the ball on 2 and 3 IMO.. they were okay.. but nothing close to the OG.
Fable 1, even in 2004, wasn’t all that great. It was underwhelming and didn’t deliver on its promises. I remember being so hyped for it and it was just mid. I don’t understand the people who absolutely love this game and actually have the audacity to call it a masterpiece. In the early to mid 2000’s we had so many bangers releasing and fable just can’t compete imo
The og xbox version performs much better in my opinion, i found the 360 version almost unplaybale when there is lots going on like when in bowerstone. Not to mention i feel the og version looks better visually as well.
@@medalgearsalad1419 its not a series x version, it's a 360 version with slightly better performance because of the series x. The problems still exist, just not as bad. The og visuals still look better as well.
@@medalgearsalad1419 the 360 version honestly for how it looks and performs, feels more like a remake and not a remaster. It looks so different, and it plays so different as well. A shitty fuckin remake though
Anniversary lost all the charm of TLC with it's hideously "improved" graphics. The atmosphere was a lot "grimier" and if you look at the original version it possesses an ethereal, dream-like quality that is notable by it's omission here. The menu system is horrendous, the original was fine on PC and it wasn't the worse thing on console. Fable 2 & 3 never happened, the series went downhill very quickly. Then there's that new trailer....ouch.
Who tf makes a review a decade after the game was made? Just make a video about the game if you want but a review is dumb and pointless. It's true Albion is based on the uk. It makes sense. With all the monster, chaos and ugly npcs running around.
@@dannyd4339 It makes you feel good to put others down. Doesn't it? Your insecurity is being directed at others to provide yourself momentary relief. Try more productive ways to make yourself feel happy. I hope you find that.
This was a surprise to see this game as a review, let alone in my recommendeds in 2023 lol. One of the best games created, and still games dont have some of the features this game did back in the xbox era. 10/10 all day long.
I'm really hoping the new one lives up to the original. Let's just hope for it to actually be released first though.
Very surprising that’s why I clicked. This game will always be dear to me.
The game was ok. Mid at best. It was hyped up too much.
@@USNEM We didn’t have internet to overhype games when that game launched lol. Tbh when that game came out. Halo was over shadowing everything in that era
Agreed. That's why the old games are better
This game was ahead of it’s time. I’ve yet to see similar mechanics and lore replicated.
i got fable the lost chapters when i was 12 for $5 at best buy. that game was my entire summer. get so nostalgic watching these kinds of videos.
Seriously one of the most charming games of all time. I play through it ever year haha
Like you, I played this game like crazy as a kid. Always wished games would be like fable. Just played the anniversary after playing TLC 20 years ago. What a great game. So ambitious.
UA-cam has been recently recommending a lot of small channels that do excellent video essays and reviews, like this one, and I am HERE FOR IT
I have noticed this too and have found new channels with good content to subscribe to.

I'm glad you found it useful. I hope you enjoy the game & I'd love to hear your thoughts once you play it!
The new voice for Jack of Blades has been around since Lost Chapters, and there's a VERY good reason why his voice was shifted down a few octaves.
I was unaware. I just read that it was due to Lionhead wanting to portray the demonic possession of the mask. I understand what they were going for, but I don't know if it was necessary.
Fable Anniversary on Switch would be amazing!
Truly ahead of it's time
Took me a while to realize a medieval version of "Pumped up Kicks" was playing. I love it.
im used to new videogames, i struggle playing oldies because of the clunky feel generally, but fable 1 is one of the very few games i go back to, such as fallout new vegas and stalker call of pripyat, fable 1 its a beauty of a game, great video!
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback. Fable is truly a gem!
I just wish fable 2 ever had a pc port, that was my fav in the series, fable 1 is my 2nd fav
Ive been playing pretty much every video game my parents never let me play as a child and i recently beat fable anniversary and loved it
Out of curiosity, what are some of the others you've been enjoying. I'm currently working on a script for the next retro game(s) I intend to review
@pungentfunk half life, half life 2 and its episodes, portal 1 and 2, og doom, halo, and assassin's creed
@@sword_racer185 very nice picks. I've been considering replaying the entire Halo series in co-op with my brother.

"Oy, look at the chicken chaser!"
If I remember correctly the Lost Chapters was where they upgraded Jack Of Blades Voice.
I'm still gutted to this day they never continued the 'Blades' storyline which was heavily hinted just prior to the release of Fable 2.
I agree. I would lose it if they brought Jack back in the new one.
20/10 I really really hope they don’t ruin the upcoming fable 😢. Great review!
I'm with you. But only time will tell. Though I'm glad I didn't buy an Xbox at the mere announcement this time, as I did with the Xbox One. At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if a newer Xbox model releases first.

you sir have my subscription just because of fable 🎉👍i love Fable ❤
I loved the first game. Such a great game. I never finished Fable 2 or 3. I really meed to go back to them 😊
they're totally worth playing, but the original has always been my favorite.
I would have to say my favorite game ever.
I'm really worried about the reboot coming our way.
Same here. I'm very concerned that we didn't really get to see any gameplay after waiting all these years after the initial teaser (on top of an entire console generation with a canceled game).

lol at the medieval version of pumped up kicks in the background
It sure if it’s the beers I had or the video but either way I am sold lol.
My favorite game of all time
I’ve been wishing for a Switch port for a long time!
this game was the last of the golden era an ended it well it pronably one of the best of all time aswell had everything in it , good times
I would absolutely love Fable tlc on switch!
Betty white out lived the queen take that brits!!!
hob goblin cave for leveling was goated for sure. I would love to see some off the wall Hob Goblins revenge type shit in the new Fable and where the old Hobby cave was an enormous hobby pops out and start wreaking havoc...... ahhh my dreams

Enjoy the bard covers used as background music; great review mate. ^^
Appreciate it, thanks! Most music used was directly from the OST, but covers were indeed used as well. Artists listed in the description.
And now compare it to nowadays rpg games: battle pass, paid dlc, endless microtransactions, paid cosmetics. This was a great review, keep it up
I appreciate that, and yeah, I seriously hope the new one doesn't follow all of those trends.
my childhood ♥
With as many pc games I end up having to turn off v-sync for anymore, it's more like v-sabotage for me.
I’m playing it now for the first time in steam deck. It is a fun game I can’t believe it was created in 2004. Even the original looked way better than other games from that time. The gameplay is great I hope fable 4 just improves upon it instead of completely changing it
What makes the game so great? Is it a game you can get lost in for hours? I'm tempted to get it for the Steam Deck too.
i played the game when it came out in 2004 and i loved it, i still have my copy of the original game and TLC and i bought Anniversary, Fable 2 and Fable 3. i'm actually replaying the trilogy right now, i'm on Fable 3! a note on Jack's voice though, they actually changed that in The Lost Chapters and ya it made me sad. his old voice just fits so much better.
i'm excited for the new Fable though, i know a lot of people are ragging on it but that seems to be the norm these days, to dog pile on a game before it comes out because, hold on
* checks notes * one of the characters looks ugly. yup. sounds about right.
I still have my original copy from 2004, as well as 2 and 3. I hope to have time to replay the sequels sometime soon. I hope the new Fable ends up being good, but the fact that gameplay wasn't really shown, especially after waiting all of these years is a little worrying.

Yeah, it would be great to have them all on PC. Hopefully with the new one coming out, they'll eventually make a collection like the did with Halo.
Jack's voice actually wasn't changed. Just altered to be far deeper. They're otherwise the same audio clips of the same performance.
That's interesting. I still miss the original version of Jack's voice though. I feel it sounds a lot more sinister.
@@pungentfunk well, his performance was just that good that they felt they had to keep it rather than revoicing them with a new actor. 😁
Love the video keep it up
I really liked fable anniversary only thing I wish they tweaked a bit more would have been the lock on the arrows sometimes you will be locked on a enemy and 3 feet away and your arrow goes the opposite direction, but i actually really loved playing the game you can tell they put a lot of thought and effort into making it a good experience

I did not know that. It's crazy to learn something new about a game I lived on two decades ago.
@@pungentfunk yeah it was a neat little secret I just discovered by accident . Idk if it was intentional, but fun overall.
4:03 is that... Bardcore Pumped Up Kicks?
As far as Jack’s voice goes, it feels like they just took the original and deepened it a bit to sound more demonic.
Still my favorite in the series
okok, im gonna play fable anniversary AGAIN
never a bad choice!
I hope they add a character creator in the new game
Yes, this would be great. Characters have always been somewhat customizable with haricuts, tattoos, and outfits, but a little bit more control over the appearance of our Hero would be awesome.
Great video
great vid
Thank you very much!
The best game ever made😉👍
i would love to see a universal port not just switch I think these console exclusive are an outdated buisness moddel and only hurt the gaming industry far more than it helps one comapny or another
I'm surprised you didn't go wolf of bowerstone Street and partake in the buying and selling of trade goods and manipulate the market with that stuff.
lol, I know that's more efficient, but it's always the way I've done it. Granted, the first 50 times I played I did have the time freeze glitch (original release).
Strength - makes you bigger
Skill - makes you taller
Will - makes you have blue skin
IMO the jack of blades voice in the remaster was honestly a welcome change.
2004 jack voice : 🤓 did u know hes crowned arena champion?
2014 jack voice: seems deeper and a lot more intimidating.
Glad to know I wasn't the only one who hated the new Jack voice. It just sounds comical. Before he actually sounded intimidating.. now it sounds like they tried to make him sound intimidating.
I replayed and completed recently on my steam deck, I got like 5hrs of battery life
Wish this is available on switch
Ive played through the game 5 times. The only other game thay i can say the same for is morrowind. The game is pure fun from beginning to end. Great video.
Thanks! I've never played Morrowind, but perhaps I should give that a try once I have a bit more time.
Morrowind is the best game, I still play it today. I wanted to try Fable, but I know it wont be as good as Morrowind, so I never buy it
Weird how I could play this game 20 years ago...but it looks too complicated for me to play it today. (As I get older...I get dumber).😕
"based on and lovingly parodied by the UK". While yeah, it was very british... It was made in Britain, lead by British Peter Molyneux.. I think it was more a British take on the RPG genre, if anything. You can't parody yourself, it was just literally british humour.
I actually liked the new voice
I don't think it's bad, but I find the original to have a more insidious quality to it. It's also more nostalgic for me.
Why doesn't xbox make cool games like this anymore? We got Halo Infinite, and they took a huge break. They've been saying the games are on the way for the last decade. Finally Starfield will be out soon, but I don't understand how PS is able to push out game after game, while Xbox who's acquiring studio after studio doesn't have hardly any exclusives.
Faster then my bullet
Fable going to the switch is not a good idea cuz they don't know how to run a bunch of other cross console games
The first game is still the best by far. The sequels just became convoluted. Sure guns were a cool concept.. but to me, they took away fromm the game.. rather than added to it. In 3 your weapons evolved as you used them.. why not just be able to customize them? They dropped the ball on 2 and 3 IMO.. they were okay.. but nothing close to the OG.
I feel like valheim music was inspired by fable
Hope your waiting for the new fable teaser this SUNDAY. I GOT RECOMMEND THIS SOMEHOW. Just sub cause i wanna se what u post about fable.
Most definitely am. I really hope they actually come through this time!
Fable 1, even in 2004, wasn’t all that great. It was underwhelming and didn’t deliver on its promises. I remember being so hyped for it and it was just mid. I don’t understand the people who absolutely love this game and actually have the audacity to call it a masterpiece. In the early to mid 2000’s we had so many bangers releasing and fable just can’t compete imo
It's a great game but was definitely oversold.
Based o the UK, where youre not even allowed to own a knife, let alone sword and bow
'twas a different time
The og xbox version performs much better in my opinion, i found the 360 version almost unplaybale when there is lots going on like when in bowerstone. Not to mention i feel the og version looks better visually as well.
Have you tried the Series X version?
@@medalgearsalad1419 its not a series x version, it's a 360 version with slightly better performance because of the series x. The problems still exist, just not as bad. The og visuals still look better as well.
@@medalgearsalad1419 the 360 version honestly for how it looks and performs, feels more like a remake and not a remaster. It looks so different, and it plays so different as well. A shitty fuckin remake though
@@kurrupoppo6937 The Series X version runs at 4K at 60 fps. Def play that version bro.
@@medalgearsalad1419 the og version still looks and performs better
Such a great game. And now it looks like it’s legacy will be destroyed with the abomination they are currently working on.
Fable
Baby's first rpg , one of the worst games I have ever played it's shit !
Anniversary lost all the charm of TLC with it's hideously "improved" graphics. The atmosphere was a lot "grimier" and if you look at the original version it possesses an ethereal, dream-like quality that is notable by it's omission here. The menu system is horrendous, the original was fine on PC and it wasn't the worse thing on console. Fable 2 & 3 never happened, the series went downhill very quickly. Then there's that new trailer....ouch.
Who tf makes a review a decade after the game was made? Just make a video about the game if you want but a review is dumb and pointless. It's true Albion is based on the uk. It makes sense. With all the monster, chaos and ugly npcs running around.
It’s an old game, I never played it and never seen a real review on it. So I appreciate this review
@@Chris-cx6wl 🤡🤡🤡
@@dannyd4339 It makes you feel good to put others down. Doesn't it? Your insecurity is being directed at others to provide yourself momentary relief. Try more productive ways to make yourself feel happy. I hope you find that.
@@Chris-cx6wl nice projecting clown
@@dannyd4339 Do better for yourself; if not, do it for the people in your life. They won't say anything about it until they have enough.
Used to be my favorite game!!
im a simple man, i see a fable review and i watch it
