Meeshka's tracking down the family tree...
Fable Franchise Fable is a critically acclaimed action role-playing game series set in the humorous and whimsical world of Albion. Created by Lionhead Studios and published by Microsoft, the series launched in 2004 and is famous for its unique blend of deep moral choice systems, British humor, and player freedom. Every decision you make — from helping villagers to robbing them, or being a noble hero versus a ruthless tyrant — permanently affects your character’s appearance, reputation, and the world around you. With memorable storytelling, charming characters, and gameplay that lets you grow from a young adventurer into a legendary (or infamous) figure, Fable remains one of the most personality-driven and fun RPG franchises in gaming.
Fable Anniversary is a re-release of the 2004 game Fable. The Anniversary version includes higher quality graphics, different interface, and mod support. The game takes place in the fantasy land of Albion. You play as the nameless protagonist child whose village gets destroyed by bandits. He gets saved by a member of the Hero Guild, an institute that trains and educates heroes. Heroes are elite mercenaries that after graduation are entirely independent of Guild. The protagonist starts his training and guild to find his lost relatives and revenge bandits. The gameplay represents the open-world action-RPG game. There are several story quests, and many side missions and different kinds of optional activates like fishing, gambling and arena brawling. The combat mechanics are based around using ranged and melee weapons and different skills that can be acquired via gaining experience points. The game is also noticeable for its morality system that depends on the player’s actions and his chooses in story-missions.
Set 50 years after the events of Fable II, the continent of Albion (where the Fable series is set) is under the control of Logan, a tyrant king and the Hero's older brother[1]. The player's character, the "Hero", is forced into a quest to become a revolutionary leader to defeat Logan after he reveals his true personality to the Hero. Over the course of the first half of the game, the Hero will overthrow Logan and become ruler of Albion themselves. During the second half of the game, a strange force from Aurora, called The Darkness will threaten Albion and the player has to decide how to react to it.
Fable 2 is the second game in the fable series by Lionhead Studios, it is an open world role-playing game. It has a simple story line where the hero needs to save Albion from the evil Lord Lucian by collecting together the other three heroes to defeat him. Interactive cut-scenes are a large part of the game however the main character never speaks and all dialogue is uncontrolled. The game features a large variety of game play and freedom, allowing a player to shape the world around and the characters appearance and moral standing based on decisions throughout the game. The player can also get married both same and opposite sex and bring up children to childhood but no farther, expressions are a lot more interactive with NPC's than before
Fable was expanded and rereleased as Fable: The Lost Chapters for Xbox and Windows PC platforms in September 2005. The game was later ported to Mac OS X by Robosoft Technologies and published by Feral Interactive on 31 March 2008. The Lost Chapters features all the content found in the original Fable, as well as additional new content such as new monsters, weapons, alignment based spells, items, armour, towns, buildings, and expressions, as well as the ability to give children objects. The story receives further augmentation in the form of nine new areas and sixteen additional quests. Characters such as Briar Rose and Scythe, who played only minor roles in the original game, are now given more importance and are included in certain main and side quests. Other character-based augmentations include the voice of the antagonist, Jack of Blades, sounding deeper, harsher and more demonic, and the ability to uncover (and resolve) the murder mystery of Lady Grey's sister. The updated edition of the game also applied fixes for certain glitches, such as the "dig glitch," in which the protagonist would move backward each time he used the shovel, pushing him through solid objects and sometimes trapping him.
In Fable, the players' every action determines their character's skills, appearances and moralities. Life stories are created from childhood through adulthood and on to old age. Players may choose the paths of righteousness or dedicate their characters' lives to evil; observing as they transform into reflections of their actions and decisions. As players' characters develop, the world reacts to them and their actions. People comment on their successes, failures, appearances and behaviors. Their many opinions are expressed through applause, mockery, trepidation, panic and even flirtation. With each person characters aid and every creature they slay, the world is changed forever. In Fable, gamers decide: "Who will I be?"
