    Absolutely - It's what started it all. It's one of the best games of all time in my opinion and a must-have for any Fable Fan.

    Re: I played fable II first, is the original any good?

    I believe the first was superior. One of the reasons is due to a spell that made the game less difficult (it prevented you from receiving damage). There are other reasons, but if I go on explaining them it would not be the same if you experienced it yourself.

    Yes Fable 1 was so much better than Fable 2, if you liked Fable 2 then you should love Fable 1.

    Fable 2 was a disappointment. The original Fable, get the lost chapters version, is the greatest game ever.

    Get TLC. It's a really G o o d [Good] game, minus the melee combat. My favorite way to play is to be an archer. It is a lot different than fable 2, but in a G o o d [Good] way. The story and dialog are really G o o d [Good], and the character are very memorable. Just talking about it makes me want to replay it again.

    Post what you think, it will be interesting to see how someone thinks after playing fable 2 first.

    Re: I played fable II first, is the original any good?

    I also started with Fable 2.

     

    Then, when they released Fable 1 downloadable, I figured I would give it a try.

     

    I LOVE it!

    Its an awesome game, if you like Fable 2, you'll like Fable 1 Stick out tongue [:P]

     

    I do like Fable 2 more though Stick out tongue [:P]

    ah the classic, where I would have armor and a quick-change broght will user set for the villagers. I liked the characters there, they had more of a "life" than in F2.

    Re: I played fable II first, is the original any good?

    Fable: The Lost Chapters is in my top three favourite games of all times. It beats Fable 2 with ease and has my personel record of most completions with a game (I have completed it so many times I cannot remember the amount - yet I am still in love with it Big Smile [:D]).

    Re: I played fable II first, is the original any good?

    yeah the original is real G o o d [Good]. I would say get TLC though if you can get hold of it as Fable just leaves you hanging at the end.

    TADA!!! Big Smile [:D]

    Re: I played fable II first, is the original any good?

    OMG the first was my favorite and will always be because the game is getting worse Sad [:(] Fable 2 dissapointed me. But I have replayed FableTLC several times. If you're getting Fable, get FableTLC (The Lost Chapters)

    Have fun playing!

    Re: I played fable II first, is the original any good?

    The First was Godly......
    Get The Lost Chapters now..
    Arguably the best game on the Original Xbox.
    The story was great, the weapons, the Armor, and the spells were fantastic.  

    Now that's thinking with your dipstick Jimmy!

    Re: I played fable II first, is the original any good?

    TLC is an excellent game. I like stuff you can do in F2, but TLC is probably still my favorite. It just has a certain charm that lacks in F2.

    Fable: The Lost Chapters is great!  I've spent many hours playing through the game becoming G o o d [Good] or E v i l [Evil].  It is quite fun! Up [:up:]

    Re: I played fable II first, is the original any good?

    The world had more of an immersive feel and sound than the second, there were some fights that were semi-challenging ( whereas the commandant is the only really noticeable boss fight in F2), the "jobs" weren't official, but you could be a trader, a fisherman, or just a champ at a game.  No dog to lead you by the nose, so you felt like an explorer, on your own against the world (unless you hired a merc).  The characters were more immersive (Jack was a real villain, not a deluded nobleman on a construction project).  Your family (sister and mother) actually mattered in the plot.  There are other things, but I won't go on at the moment.

    If you can take the step back in technology... It is totally worth it. I think Fable 2 was a huge improvement in some areas of the first. But in The Lost Chapters the controls are better, the will set up is better, and its a bit more difficult.
    TLC will give you a lot of historical input from the fable universe.Its pretty awesome in my opinion.
