By all accounts it’s plain to see this is not the system selling ‘best RPG eva’ it was touted to be 5 years ago. I have no problem with any decent ten hour game, it’s the half decade of hype preceding it that makes the situation laughable. How any of you can sit there with a straight face and say it shouldn’t matter is a marvel to me.
Glad you finally joined in...The hype is on a individual basis, you either read into it or you didn\'t. I stopped reading up on Fable probably a good year ago if not longer and I have almost no idea what was intended for the game.
When you sit down and play the final product it doesn\'t matter what didn\'t make it in. The game came out solid regardless of any broken promises.
As for the five year development...Star Ocean 3 was also five years in the making and from what I read it had quite a bit of hype surrounding it (in Japan anyway). The review I read says it\'s a 40 hour rpg with a possible 80 if you do EVERYTHING...
[mm]OMG, five years!!!11, that RPG should be 200 hours long just because and I don\'t have anything else to add so I\'ll just keep saying that!!11[/mm]
The reviews/previews read like a short version of Summoner with updated graphics and the option to play the hero as a sadistic prick, complete with red eyes and phallic symbols growing out of your head. Plus, with it supposedly being almost impossible to die- what’s to keep the fun from ever ending?
Then I guess it isn\'t Summoner now is it:p
Guess you\'ll have to play it for yourself to see what the fuss is about until then why don\'t you keep an open mind towards it.
