Anybody remember Fable 2?
Reaver.
That son of a ***** betrayed me more times than should ever be allowed in a game where I can't kill plot-related NPCs.
He killed the photograph guy, sent me on a fool's errand to steal my youth, sold me out to the main bad guy, and while said villain was giving his final monologue,
HE STOLE MY GODDAMN KILL!
Anyway, the writing in that game was bad all-around. Besides, you can't stay mad at Stephen Fry.
I usually get pissed off only at stupid villains, or games that make have wierd sense.
So, Reaver from Fable 3!
You see him brutally murder some poor innocent guy right in front of you. You ascend to the throne, to become king.
And you allow him to become a GODDAMNED LAWYER!?!? WHAT!?!?!?!?!?!?!? (I cannot pucntuate this enough)
I get that they were trying to show, clearly, that whatever choice he was giving was the evil choice, but cmon! That's freaking elementary school logic! It's like Fable 3 didn't know whether it wanted to be child-friendly, or an M-rated game, so it just threw both types of writing in there and went with it.
But the story for the entire game was absolute rubbish. I mean, you can't just explain to your citizens "Hey, so next year, there is DEFINITELY going to be this horrible attack against us, and we really need to figure out how to stop it. So for one year, you'll just have to support and bear with us as we make some hard decisions to ration out goods and work on military stuff. It's only for one year." ?
But that goddamn Reaver, he deserves to be burned!
