Article substantially fixed
I've been doing a lot of work on this article, and I wanted to check to see if this article has been substantially fixed, and what else might be needed to improve it? -Pacific Miles (talk) 17:16, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Who reverted the article to the 5 month old version?
OK, who's the wiseguy who reverted this article back to the messed up, GameFaqs version from 5 months ago? 128.252.251.44 18:59, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Article cleanup
This article is getting huge. Do we really need descriptions for weapons, monsters, items, characters, clothes, etcetera? At least in the same article?

I recommend that characters be moved into a "Fable Characters" page (this could also include any new ones from The lost Chapters).

Monsters/Bosses could both go to a similar page.

As far as spells and items? Is this information really necessary? This is supposed to be an encyclopedic entry for the game. Not a mirror of some video game site's description of it.

TotalTommyTerror 11:57, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

This isn't GameFaqs
Making some edits here. A lot of spell descriptions were pretty subjective in nature and used "you" a lot.

There's also a lot of information here that isn't really necessary for a Wiki page on the game. It's more faqish than it needs to be.

Also, I removed Divine Fury and Infernal Wrath from the spell lists. These are spells that appear in the Fable: The Lost Chapters game and not in this release. TotalTommyTerror 17:27, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Tommy, I'm not sure why you edited this part out http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fable_%28video_game%29&diff=34904721&oldid=34904344

It is factual and isn't gamefaqish in nature. It isn't even in any faqs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.72.195.33 (talk • contribs) 02:19, 25 March 2006

I've cleaned the spells section up bit, too....along with the rest of the page. Some of the phrasing was pretty awkward and assumed the reader was playing the game....yeah. That's been fixed. --Niroht 16:58, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Cheat Section
I'm pretty sure we don't need/want a cheats section. This isn't a walkthrough or FAQ, but I'd like the opinions of others on this matter before removing it. If it were put under something else like glitches or some such, like Super Metroid's speedrun and glitch things, it would be better, but this doesn't work. I'll clean up the inappropriate person and such as I always do, but I'm not sure it should be here at all. --Niroht 17:01, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Never mind, I took a look at it and it's blatantly FAQ-ish. It's gone. --Niroht 17:05, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

Merge
I think the Lost chapter should become a section in this article rather than an article on its own. It's just a different version of the same game. Having a whole new article doesn't make sense. Ace of Sevens 00:02, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Makes sense to me. For a start they are on different consoles, and they have some different features (new locations and missions). It seems to be sensible to have the versions for both games. Michaelritchie200 19:28, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

I disagree. It can have it's own page with a list of differences. There's a lot of games where their expansion packs have seperate wikis and do just that. TotalTommyTerror 11:52, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

A lot of the information in this article pertains more to Lost Chapters than the original 211.28.252.233 04:56, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

I'm in favor of a merge. What's acceptable for other games is immaterial; we're looking at Fable here, and I just don't think the content that The Lost Chapters adds qualifies it for its own article. IMHO, it would be like having one article about regular forks and the other for salad forks, the second being all of a paragraph long. I think it's better suited to divide things into sections. Ipso-De-Facto 22:21, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

We could list a subsection in this article summarizing The Lost Chapters and then link to the main article, could we not? Then the Lost Chapters would explain the differences. 68.115.90.55 15:40, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

Was at the top
Moving from Fable (computer game) to Fable (video game), as the title is available exclusively for a video game console. Would be more commonly known as a video game, not a computer game (it's not even available for computers). -Frazzydee|&#9997; 23:26, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

The following text is moved here from Fable which already has a "See also" link to this article. Feel free to incorporate it into the text here:
 * In addition Fable is a popualar video game in which the game focuses less on the makers of the game and their story line but a storyline that the player carves out of the game for himself. This is a new type of RPG that allows the player to choose his own path through his avatars life. An avatar is a physical representation of the player. This is a completely new concept because the AI power of the game must be massive to cope with every NPC (Non Player Character) remembering every action that the player has done. In this way every NPC knows if the character is an evil doer bent on destruction or an angelic doer of good. This concept allows for an unprecedented amount of customizability. A new age of RPG’s will ushered in thanks to this revolutionary new game. In the game the player takes the reins of a little boy’s life from boyhood to old age. As of now it is only available on the X-Box. In addition to the ability to be evil or good you can further customize your character with bigger muscles, war scars, tattoos, and hair cuts. All of this and more is available to the player. However the game is fairly short at only 11-15 hours of play time if you finish all of the nooks and crannies it has to offer 15-17 hours of play time can be garnered. The replay ability options are massive which means you can double or triple the amount of play time by simply replaying it. I strongly advise getting this game, I couldn't take my eyes off of it!

I'm not at all sure we should incorporate that text. It's pretty far from NPOV. --Yamla 03:04, 2005 Mar 2 (UTC)

What other planned features weren't included in the final product?


 * --Hakusa - Wiki addict: 23:19, August 31, 2005 (UTC) Things that were missing from the final release of Fable. (Xbox)

(Came back and edited some. the reply below is not inaccurate to original post.)
 * Public vandalism.
 * Having children
 * Permenate death
 * The whole "everything you do" factor seeing as most actions had little or no effect.
 * Futher more: A very non-linear gameplay experience.
 * I'm sure I missed plenty.


 * You can die in the game. It isn't that tough.  Also, there are children in the game, though I don't think you can have any yourself.  Or your wife, for that matter.  Vandalism, not vandelism.  Also, I think you meant linear and experience.  I'm assuming you mean the gameplay is linear rather than this being something missing from the game.  Anyway, what is your point?  That the game was overhyped before release?  There's already a whole section in the article on that topic.  --Yamla 20:43, August 30, 2005 (UTC)

--Hakusa - Wiki addict: 23:19, August 31, 2005 (UTC) The point? The post above my original asked what wasn't in the final product that was mentioned. I answered him.

Molyneux also mentioned multiplayer in the game, that never made it into the final version.

It's discussed in some of the developer diaries IGN hosted.

It was essentially a system where players competed for fame. (Where player 1 may be the hero of the game up until the point where player 3 started being more popular.)

But broken promises don't belong in a factual article. As such, I think the Hype section should either be removed or at least put lower on the page. Though it should still be mentioned that P.M. did publicly apologize for the game.

TotalTommyTerror 18:53, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

I also removed the template for Gamespot's top 25 Xbox games, it has no place on this page.

I suggest the deletion of the "Story Depth" section. It is poorly written and isn't completely necessary for the page.TotalTommyTerror 19:04, 16 November 2005 (UTC)

Story depth has been removed. This page isn't GameFaqs, there was no need for all that. TotalTommyTerror 20:24, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

I'm going to go and remove all of the enemy/spell/area stuff. It's not wikipedia's job to have such info. Feel free to put it back, in a more...user friendly way. No more long lists of everything in the game plzkthx. Grymsqueaker 13:27, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

Becoming secretly evil?
I think it should possibly be mentioned that you can secretly do things without the NPCs noticing. Such as, you can kill someone and kill all of the witnesses (no one lives to tell the tale), or steal things, and if the NPCs do not notice, they will treat you as a good guy still. I think before they mention this, they should also mention that there is a special number near the mini-map that tells the player how many NPCs can see what they're doing. CrazyNekoRun 00:10, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, makes sense. I'd say the awareness indicators would go into gameplay somewhere, and the secret evil under the same area as alignment in general. It's probably also a good idea to note that if the player's alignment goes far enough into evil people will be scared regardless though. --Niroht 00:46, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

"Victorian" setting?
How could the setting be described as Victorian?

There's little industrialization, there are no overseas colonies, there's no centralization of control (indeed, the island is divided between polities with little control over the lands outside of their walls, with bandit country in between), there is 0 evidence of progressive scientific thought, there are no railways, and there's certainly no movement towards conservative moral philosophy- nobody is "lying back and thinking of England" here.

If there's no defence to this, I propose the "Victorian" attribute be removed.

It was also me who took out the Holy Roman Empire things. I'm note sure who wrote that, but I am sure they have little grasp of the history of the period.

-User Scorrar


 * The buildings have a victorian theme, despite not being of a victorian age. The game resembles the gunpowder age more than any. --Eiyuu Kou 17:18, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

dont need to kill
You can make a house available if u have the owners follow u out of the town and have them wait (I'm not sure if this works with all places, but it works with the barber in Bowerstone South).--Age BBH 20:56, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

i think it should be noted somewhere in the article about how to get skorms bow because it is a great weapon —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jackjohnson15 (talk • contribs) 19:33, 23 April 2007 (UTC).

WP:GAMEGUIDE There's your answer.

I agree in fact why doesn't someone put a legendary weapons section for the game.72.22.226.59 (talk) 14:24, 19 July 2008 (UTC)
 * That's because focusing on details like that is frowned upon in Wikipedia. Please refer to the link above (WP:GAMEGUIDE) as well as the WikiProject video games article guidelines. --SilentAria talk 13:54, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

the war on trivia
What is wrong with a trivia section in entertainment articles? I think it's one of the great things in wikipedia, although of course it's not really encyclopedic. But what encyclopedia would document every game or every episode of every tv show? --Jaibe 06:53, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Ironically enough, trivia sections ARE documenting every little pop culture reference, real world reference etc. which contributes nothing on what the game is actually about. -Theodorel 19:48, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

PC Version
Is there a PC version of the game? Or is it only for X-box. In the platform section, it says for Microsoft Windows and X-box. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.158.78.104 (talk • contribs) 01:04, 27 June 2007

AFAIR, a PC version exists. --217.91.92.94 13:47, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Spoilers
Whoever the idiot who wrote this article is, you want to refrain from spilling major game spoilers casually when it could easily be avoided? Or at least drop a spoiler warning?

You don't exactly need to give away a major character's death to say "the hero occaisonally speaks"... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)


 * As much as I see the point in your argument, you may want to read WP:CIVILITY before you go on posting in this manner. Additionally, you may want to take a look at WP:SPOILER, which states: In Wikipedia, however, it is generally expected that the subjects of our articles will be covered in detail. For purposes of style and clarity, the use of spoiler alerts is generally avoided unless a plot spoiler appears in a truly unexpected place. You were right in removing the spoiler you mentioned, but you can't stop the spoilers from popping up in appropriate sections of the article. -- SilentAria talk 16:56, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Proposed merge
As per the suggestions above and the suggestions in the Fable: The Lost Chapters talk page, I've formally proposed a merge. Please post your opinions/suggestions so that we can reach a consensus regarding this matter. :) --SilentAria talk 00:04, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Lost Chapters Feature section
The lost chapters feature section is too long. In addition, it uses bullets when it can be better presented in paragraphs. I have tagged it .--Voidvector 08:16, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Has anyone noticed how much drugs and characters taking drugs are in this game? Thats crazy. sheesh —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.36.89.42 (talk) 16:47, 9 December 2007 (UTC)


 * wikipidea is not a forum if you have comments about the game take them to a forum or some one who caresJackjohnson15 (talk) 20:04, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Easter Egg
I've noticed plenty of easter eggs, one of the harder ones to see being the following: In most towns, when you look at the headboard of a bed's posts, you can see a smiley face. I was hiding from the guards in a town and happened to be a near a bed. So I looked around and on the bed posts, I noticed a smiling face on the ball part of the posts. Just a little something you never normally notice. Is an easter egg section ok for Wikipedia or is it frowned upon? Tyler Warren (talk/contribs) 05:21, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm not really sure, but the guidelines over at WP:CVG, state: "A general rule of thumb to follow if unsure: if the content only has value to people actually playing the game, it is unsuitable. Keep in mind that video game articles should be readable and interesting to non-gamers; remember the bigger picture." I think that somewhat rules out devoting an entire section to Easter eggs. :-/ --SilentAria talk 06:26, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

What promised features were not included?
Why doesn't this article mention those features which the developer talked about but ultimately didn't deliver? All there is is a link toa single forum post, presumably by Peter M., which clues me in about one thing, that trees did not grow as promised What were the others? --Peter Knutsen 08:57, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Primarily because of a lack of sources. I only managed to find one source wherein Peter Molyneux discussed the game's features before the game was released; I added the information from that source just now. What was written in the previous revision of the article was based on what was written in the posts included in the forum thread link, because the way Molyneux himself responded to the complaints indicated that there were probably several more features that the players were complaining about. If you can find any additional sources that actually mention more of these omitted features, feel free to add them to the article. --SilentAria talk 09:57, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Downloadable Content
What was the Downloadable content and should it be added in a trivia section or something? (Fable: TLC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 61.68.123.13 (talk) 08:51, 3 December 2007 (UTC)
 * What downloadable content? I played Fable: TLC, and all I remember is additional content found in the game itself. Additionally, trivia sections are discouraged on Wikipedia. --SilentAria talk 10:47, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

lost chapters?
"[brom's] tombstone can be found on the lynchfeild grave yard" is this on lost chapters or which one? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jackjohnson15 (talk • contribs) 19:42, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

The Lost Chapters content
In the article, it says that the player can "examine their character's basic details such as romance information (which includes sexuality, number of spouses, number of weddings, number of divorces, etc.), or other details such as their title." You could do this in the original Fable as well. BubbaYoshi (talk) 14:43, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Why is Maze not included in the Characters section?
He certainly plays a substantial role in the game - larger than several of the other characters listed. This seems to be an odd omission! PMaranci (talk) 18:38, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

 * I don't know who kept on reverting your edits previously, but I'd like to let you know that I removed that bit about the experience potions entirely. Sorry, but this is supposed to be an encyclopedic article, not a game guide or a walkthrough. Trivial details like that shouldn't be included in the article, as per the WikiProject Video Games Guidelines. --SilentAria talk 11:09, 26 July 2008 (UTC)

Modding Fable

 * I've done a lot of modding on Fable TLC, and have been part of the core modding community; http://fabletlcmod.com/ They also have a wiki containing a lot of info on modding Fable and the file formats.

But there is a lot of information about modding Fable out there, so. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.177.214.210 (talk) 18:57, 16 October 2008 (UTC)

Release date discrepancy
At the top of the page, the NA release date for Fable II is mentioned as October 21, whereas at the bottom of the page the EU release date of Oct 24 is mentioned. Either the country of release should be mentioned, or one date should be decided on and mentioned in both places. 199.88.20.8 (talk) 15:36, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Storyline
I think this area of it should be edited....

"It eventually becomes clear that it was Jack of Blades himself who hired the Hero's mentor Maze to destroy the Hero's home. Aided by his blind sister, the Hero makes it his mission to defeat Jack of Blades one way or another, either through good or evil. The Hero tracks down his mother, and attempts to rescue her from Bargate Prison, where Jack has kept her since the day of the Oakvale raid. However, the Hero is captured and spends a year in the prison"

You don't know that Maze is working with Jack of Blades until right before the final battle, and I don't rememeber too well, but I don't think you even realize what Jack is up to until you escape bargate, where you can stay for a minimum of 1 year.

Also, I think that the Lost Chapters "section" should be lengthened to include a synopsis of the story line. Jn motto (talk) 16:21, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Storyline Indiscrepancy
"The first Archon's rule was peaceful and prosperous until he came into possession of an ancient and powerful sword that gradually began to corrupt him and, eventually, his entire kingdom."

We know from "Tales of Albion" that William Black(AKA Scythe), the first Archon got the Sword of Aeons BEFORE defeating the Court and becoming Archon. I'm going to fix this paragraph. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.76.164.245 (talk) 21:14, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Unavailable quests
Perhaps it can be described that some quests appear in the beginning of the game as seamingly playable, yet actually aren't. These are: Snow Troll Attack, Suppress Uprising and Minion Camp. See http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/xbox/qna/516688.html?qid=15774 The quests are not available in Fable: the lost chapters neither. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.246.159.77 (talk) 09:09, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Oakvale actualy Erbert
If you play fable 1 and then go to oakvale then you will see a memorial page on a tree where it says in memory of the murdered people in the city of erbert.

They change the name from erbert to oakvale after the massmurder. That means that the name of the burn down village WAS NOT Oakvale instead the name was Erbert!


 * Right... I've never seen this tree you're talking about. I'm a huge Fable fan and I started yet another playthrough last Monday. Trust me when I say you're wrong. Play Fable and listen to the opening words by Weaver. "Deep in the forest of Albion lay the small town of Oakvale, unchanged by time and untouched by the sword." So yeah, you are either very confused or a troll. Take your pick. -- Thejadefalcon Sing your song The bird's seeds 12:49, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * OK, if you still dont belive me asshole!!! THen why dont you just email Lionhead and ask them if the name of oakvale used to be Erbert before the massmurder! Please ´´Special contibuter in my ass!´´
 * I should report you or something! Use your fucking brain if you have any and dont correct anybody if you are wrong!


 * PS: I know that the massmurder was called the Oakvale raid but it is still incorrect becuse it doesnt matter what the raid was called or anything else. The only thing that matters is the sign on the wallboard in oakvale in fable 1! I am sorry that i said tree before but i meant wallboard, my english is not so good becuse i am from sweden. You can find the wallboard on the left when you are entering Oakvale in fable 1! The wallboard is next to a tree! And when you realise that you are wrong then I want a god damn apologize!


 * Now please do NOT edit this again and DO NOT report me! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.248.110.140 (talk) 07:49, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Oh, facepalm... I know what you're talking about now (sighs)... Through my elite hacking skills, I've ignored running through a quarter of the game and just ripped it out of the game with brute force. Erbert was a builder. End of topic. "This sign commemorates the death of Erbert, killed in an accident during the rebuilding of Oakvale." In the face of this proof, you are very welcome to take a screenshot and e-mail it to me (see my userpage for contact information). Until you do that, I'm going to revert any more changes of this nature without discussion. -- Thejadefalcon Sing your song The bird's seeds 14:06, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

What does "created the platform" mean?
"Feral Interactive ported the game to the Mac platform on 31 March 2008, & Robosoft Technologies created the platform after a delay of more than two years due to licensing issues." I can't tell from this sentence what Robosoft Tech created. The "platform" in question is the Mac, so the current wording asserts that Robosoft created the Mac. If Feral Interactive ported the game to the Mac, what is Robosoft's relationship to the Mac port? According to the information in the sidebar, Robosoft ported it and Feral published it. This seems to be accurate based on some Googling. Either way, this sentence is a confusing mess as it is written.

British English?
Eh, not really too big of a deal, but since Lionhead is a British company (as is Peter) and the series is mainly Britain-themed/based (off the top of my head since playing III I can remember the slang words "sod", "bugger" and "balls"; I'm pretty sure those are used mostly in British English, although that might just be a cultural bias on my part) it might be worth changing this to British English rather than the current American English. Basically, that just means changing "colored" to "coloured" and "humor" to "humour". Nothing big. – Harry Blue5 (talk • contribs) 01:56, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Original, original website?
Anyone remember / know how to find information on the original website for fable/project ego? Before the game came out, there was a flash website with a storybook theme.

The article is misleading
As currently presented this article appears to assert that all the Fable games use a game engine called "Unreal Engine 3 Anniversary".
