Hmmm this looks great at least. Sounds a bit like what they were trying to do with Fable, we will see.
Yup... We shall have to wait and see, though. It could turn out to be a visually gorgeous disaster...Quote:

I was tempted by Fable but never took the plunge. Now my next rpg will probably be Oblivion. From your comment, can I take it that Fable didn't quite live up to its promise?
Well, I really liked fable. But then I have no patience with the long games. It only took about 10 hours to finish.Quote:

I didn't even explore all of the cool features that were in the game regarding how other people view you.
This is the feature I have heard the most about and which intrigues me.Quote:

Hmmm... I tend to prefer open universe type games rather than story-driven ones, so I will probably just wait for Oblivion.
If you can get it cheap no reason not to, it has a great sense of humour and the whole 'being the hero' thing is done very well. It is just very short, and there is no challenge to speak of. It is fun to see your character change depending on your actions, but there isn't really any direction to take like KOTOR, it's all cosmetics. May sound a bit negative, but it is a good game.Quote:
