"Hil, you made me come out and comment now. happy
For a start, Fable keeps me busy for a long time, it's still keeping me busy, and it took me around 26 hours to complete the game, doing some side quests but not everything. Not talking to too many people either in the game.
With that said, seeing the sort of game Fable is, it will keep you busy for over a 100 hours. Just like the very lineair Diablo 2 kept me busy (and still does), or Secret of Mana kept me busy for over a 100 hours.
My dad would probably need his whole life to complete Fable, mainly because he's not a very good gamer. I know friends who played it (Fable) for five days and only just got 2/3s far. As I say - it really depends on different factors. Hil and Rob are probably very experienced gamers (I surely hope so!) and it's likely for them to complete the game quicker then someone else. Then again, I know of other journalists who reviewed the game and after spending 20 hours only got halfway trough.
The core quest completed in nine hours? Twenty two hours? Hell, I'm sure someone will beat the game in eight hours and thirty minutes, record it and put it online. Just to show of their skills and to set a record. Just like was done with Mario, and Diablo, and Zelda, and ...
If you feel like spending 50$ on a game and rush trough it as quickly as possible that's your call and that's a great thing to do. Fable does allow for some serious play, some serious long play if that's your fancy.
I respect Hil, and Rob, and anyone else who has a mature opinion - be it positive or negative - about Fable. I'm sure there's going to be lots of talking to come, I'm sure people will disagree, agree, call eachother names, and so on. It's my opinion that an opinion should be based on self experience, not on rumors and what else. I love you all."
