ok i dont care what fable says, this one looks like the be all end all of rpg's, and i will stick with that until proven otherwise.
Believe as you will, which is just as you should.
I've seen the great, the good, the bad and the ugly in roughly 25 years of computer gaming--and every single last one of them had multiple features that never appeared in the final release, and were easily the best game to ever be made. So I don't get my hopes up, and just wait for the release. If the game's great, I'm surprised and delighted, while if it's bad, I'm not disappointed in the slightest. Works best for me.
