Fable: The Lost Chapter

An Action-RPG game from Lionheads studio of Peter Moleneux the man who concieve Populus, Dungeon Keerpers, Magic Carpet, and Black & White. In this title you will play as a hero set out to fulfill his destiny and he can choose to be either good or bad in the process.

The concept was to allow you to play as good or evil the way you preferred. But in reality, you will end up with just the different look of your character and that's it. Plus it was much easier to play as good guy instead of bad guys since the monsters you have to defeat for experince will increase your good alingment. You will probably end up working a lot harder in the game just to stay evil. Still the game is quite fun :)

With the unique concept of your stat points will affects the phsical of your character. At first he will be short and rather scrawny young man and eventually you will max all the points and became tall muscular man :) For magic users you will also get shimmering bluish arcane patterns all over your body as well.

There are several hair style, facial hairs and tattoos so u can customize your characters furthermore. Also these customization will affect your attractiveness which will affects how will the other villagers behave in your present. There are also many sets of armors and clothing for every occasions and for both good and evil character as well. In the stealth mission, it would be a better idea to wears asssasin cloth sets instead of big shiny heavy armor set.
Graphic wise the game looks decent, despite the fact that it came out on PC a year after the XBox version. The soundtrack was ok although it was not all that much remarkable. The story itself was rather cliche but what else could you expect from a Fantasy RPG game :)
Despite being an Action-RPG game the control is easy and responsive although it can be frantic at times. Overall the game is quite easy, the weapons have cool elemental effects and quite easy to collect them all.
The picture above is my character :) Isn't he looks cool?? You can click on the photo to see the full size picture.
