Fable: The Lost Chapters vs World of Final Fantasy
Fable: The Lost Chapters
Fable: The Lost Chapters is one of the most groundbreaking adventure RPG back in the day. Why was it so unique? Well, the game is designed with one major concept in mind - your every action in the game, including which dialogue options you chose and even how you treat people, will affect your reputation, which in turn will change the skills you have access to and also your character's appearance (like a reverse Dorian Gray) as he ages or collect scars from battling enemies. So, in other words, the character development is beyond impressive. The game doesn't really penalize you for your actions though, but there are consequences for every good or bad actions that you do and these consequences will affect the world around you, giving you the sort of freedom that was pretty much unheard of back then.In some way, Fable can be regarded as a legend-creator - a game in which you can literally craft your own legend by forging your own path. It also has a rather whimsical tone to it, making the adventures you embark on fun and lighthearted. Of course, there are plenty of exciting storylines to uncover and hidden secrets for you to find as well.
Fable is one of the most popular RPG series of all time and if you love RPGs, this is definitely one game you'll want to get (or maybe you can get the Fable Anniversary Edition instead - despite its flaws, it does have better graphics).
World of Final Fantasy
World of Final Fantasy lets you set off on an exciting adventure across a mysterious land along with two siblings in hopes of finding their lost memories and learning more about their past. There is a host of likeable characters to meet and interact with, some of which are the familiar Final Fantasy heroes that you've known and loved. Unlike the Final Fantasy formula used in most of their main games, the gameplay in this one is quite different. It is a lot like Pokemon where players get to collect, grow, evolve and battle iconic monsters, but here comes the twist - you battle by stacking these monsters to create strategic monster towers. There are several factors, namely the monsters' size, element and order, in combat that will determine your chances of victory and I'd say make the most of these and game the system. In fact, you can even ride the monsters you've caught as mounts to hasten your travels.World of Final Fantasy may be "merely" a spin-off game, but it is still a Final Fantasy game through and through. The art style and the characters that are in the game is a testament to that. The gameplay in this game is very innovative as well. So, if you think you'd like this game, you might want to check it out.
