FWIW IMO XBox Fable is very good
#1
While I wasn't crazy about Black & White, I've been very fond of titles some of the creators of Fable have worked on in the past (Populous, Populous 3D, Magic Carpet I & II) so I'm not surprised to be very impressed with Fable (XBox only, afaik).

To me it is as if the gameplay that interested me in Daggerfall, Betrayal at Krondor and Drakan had been redone with a more aesthetic simplicity of design in glorious modern graphics (and very good voice acting, as these things go).

I am very very happy that this game is not multiplayer nor as extensive as, say, Morrowind, because then it would be a huge (instead of substantial) time suck.

(I do not consider the game to be "spiritually" in the same genre as Diablo, even though both could be called RPGs, so I really have no idea if a jrandom Diablo I/II player would be likely to also like Fable... that's why I mentioned all those titles above that I really like, to give you some context for my heads-up on Fable).
