Tags: Fable: The Lost Chapters; Lionhead Studios<http://pc.ign.com>IGN[/url] have got a review of Fable up and ready for reading. They rate it 8.7/10.
At the most basic level your character's abilities change based on how you play. Though the majority of experience points you earn will be put in a common pool to spend on any of your abilities, you'll also earn bonus experience points based on which abilities you're using. Swing your sword a lot and you'll gain plenty of points to spend on physical abilities. Cast a lot of spells and you'll find that you'll have more points to spend on will powers. Since it's impossible to be good at everything, you'll find that there's even more incentive to go back and play through the game again taking a different path.Killing monsters with lightning bolts instead of killing them with a sword hardly counts as replayability in my book as long as you're still just killing the same damn monsters.
