"well done, lad. The beetles are all dead" gets me everytime

[noctisocculta]

As a kid, I married my friend's character to an old man while he went to the toilet. He came back in while they were consummating their marriage. He angrily snatched the controller out of my hand, then decapitated his husband. We have never spoken about it to this very day.

Sacrifice to evil gods - 40 evil points.
Divorce - 600 evil points.
Yep - England during Henry VIII reign alright.

The Lady Grey romance was so good, I remarried her resurrected corpse 500 years later in Fable 2

[faurier]

>Fable is now considered retro

I'm turning into dust as we speak

[AnonymousJohnAutobon]

"An experience all of us can relate to, having your parents killed and your village burnt to the ground" oh yeah... I forgot sseth grew up in eastern europe

[gregjuly]

I remember watching my older brothers play and when choosing haircuts we learned that I think it was bald that woman in the world found most attractive and laughing about it. Knowing that Peter Molyneux made this now, it all adds up.

He's just cranking them out now isn't he. The Merchant's Guild must be holding his family hostage

"tfw foreskin caught in the zipper"

Peter Molyneux understands marriage better than ANYONE I've ever met.

"You can even choose to marry people in this game!"


>shows clip of main character punching a woman
yes

[CreepsMcPasta]

This game was my childhood jam


Shoutout to anyone who dug up and resurrected Lady Grey's bones in Fable III to marry her again

[Amyante]

If i recall from way back when i played this, you could actually get a whole bunch of Rogue (yellow) XPs in the tutorial. When you're supposed to hit your tutor with a weapon, just stand far away and keep hitting him with a bow. Eventually he'll get tired of it, but you'll have gathered so much yellow XPs (which make you taller for some reason) that your character model becomes too tall for the orphanage cutscenes, making it look like you're some creepy adult stalking the kids there.

Good times.

Peter Molyneux is just a hard corporate contractarian and simply wants us to understand the joys of contract based morality. In marriage you both swear to “now and forever be together” so by breaking this, you are a dirty oathbreaker and deserve the highest extent of punishment by the law. While on the other hand, little rascals who sacrifice others to the dark gods never promise to NOT sacrifice them, so their slight is only surface level. The victim should have explicitly had a non sacrificial declaration submitted to the local government if they were so against it in the first place.

Your health is low hero. Do you have any potions, or food?

[nastybedazzler]

"As your fists might unintentionally kill your wife, use heal between beatings to keep her healthy and to get rid of any bruising that might be used as evidence against you in a court of law." - That is priceless. I could listen to you review a potato for an hour lol

[Ogryska]

I'm more hyped for this premiere than any other movie for past 3 years

My favorite scheme I ever did in this game was buying alcohol, using the give command to give it to a shop owner who would then immediately drink it, do this enough and they'd become drunk, then through the use of carefully running into them you could push them out of the shop and they'd stumble around town drunk while I stole all their shops items.
