Fable (video game)/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Alas, Poor Villain: Maze
  • Complete Monster: Jack of Blades.
  • Evil Is Cool: Jack of Blades is probably one of the most popular characters in the series.
  • Evil Is Sexy: Lady Grey.
  • Hype Backlash: The development team had promised several features that weren't in the game upon its release -- tanned/bleached skin, the ability to plant an acorn and for it to grow into a tree -- and people didn't take to the lack of these features. The sequel didn't receive as much ridiculous backlash mainly because the devs learned their lesson from the first game and didn't promise everyone the moon this time (except for the whole dog gameplay mechanic, anyway.)
  • Magnificent Bastard: Jack of Blades. Hideously, extravagantly evil, yet cunning and manipulative at once.
  • The Scrappy: The Guildmaster.
  • They Changed It, Now It Sucks: Jack of Blades was stripped of his sociopathic Creepy Monotone in The Lost Chapters and given a deep Go'a'uld sounding voice as a replacement.
