BTW, I heard that Fable will be released to the PC with TONS of new material, different quests and endings, etc. But they're not doing an update with that stuff for the Xbox.

As it should be

I thought I did as well... but I was wrong. If you guessed it correctly, kudos to you .

Far from it. Fable is a fun game, but its too damn short.

I have to agree. I loved Fable. I just wish there was more. That fishing subgame was addictive as Hell!

How's the replayability? It doesn't look like it will have much.

Supposedly, it's pretty decent. The 'Closed Fist' way differs from the 'Open Hand' and creates interesting alternatives to quests... or so I've read.

OKay, finished it last night! I was mostly right about the twist.

Spoiler:

I had guessed about midway into the game that Master Li would end up being the main baddie. So I wasn't the least bit shocked when he betrayed me. I was surprised I died, though...

I initially thought it would turn out he was Death's Hand, and that he had been secretly running the Lotus Assassins from afar for years. In a sense, I was right there, except he stopped being Death's Hand 20 years ago.

The finale was a bit of a letdown. I wanted a bit more of a drawn out conclusion after defeating Li. (btw, I found Li far easier to defeat than the Emperor, but that's probably because I maxed out my sword skills, which the Emperor was immune to but Li wasn't). But it ended right away without much closure (I don't count the cheap text wrap-ups as closure).

BTW, did anyone watch all the closing credits? Some funny stuff.

Spoiler:

Well, kudos to you. Li turning bad suprised the **** out of me. I thought Death's Hand would come in and beat me down and take Li again... I thought the twist was going to be the relation between Li and Dawn Star (or the main character).

And he wasn't actually Death's Hand. He just wore the uniform that would be Death's Hand later . Prince Sun Kim headed the Order of the Lotus, which becomes the Lotus Assassins after the Water Dragon is killed.

And Sun Hi isn't simply immune to weapons. He is immune to any attack based on what he has in his hands. If he has a weapon, then he's immune to weapons. If he has nothing, then he's immune to martial arts. Made him difficult to fight... Li could just paralyze if you got too far and he also had this thing that killed your health if you hit him (like the shield around you.. that you get). And he was the only bad guy that could go into focus mode. I hear it is harder on the Hardest Difficulty... maybe I'll go there for my Closed Fist character I'll do next.

The ending should have been better. Maybe a discussion between you and the, now powerful and reborn, Water Dragon. Just a wrap up. And in the 'where are they now' section, I would have prefered some movie scenes with the text of the scrolls underneath.

FWIW, I finished in the game in like 29 hours. So decent length, but no where near KOTOR I & II
