Numerous side quests, the free character development, beautiful fights and weapons, cool spells and free choice.
All of these things can be found in Fable and they make the game a pleasure. Have particularly pleased me little things like nicknames and people's reactions to the main character. One is a shining hero, they look up to and admire one. Then come questions like "Why do you call him a mask?" or statements like: "I thought that would be bigger!"
Assuming, however, the dark path, avoiding a people and fear even before the "hero".
These are all nice little things that make the game a pleasure.
The biggest drawback of the game is (everywhere it is the same reason) the short playing time. One can play through the game in a very short time. The but only if you're running through the main quests! If you take time and care you are side quests and explore the world a little, comes loose one, light and fluffy to twenty hours of play. Runs to the golden main quests afterwards, so do you manage the game in less than half the time.
Conclusion: Who is fixed only on story and simply complies with only one task after another, we have little to worry about the short play time with Fable.
However, if you have time and like to deviate from the main quest, which was to bring Fable!
