One of the big touted aspects of Fable was that it was ‘supposed’ to be extremely open ended, letting you go and do whatever you wanted. Sadly, the game is not as open as some people might hope. The map of Albion is divided into several small roads that branch off in different directions, leading you to more roads. You must stay directly on these paths and there is little to no wandering off for exploration. For those who are looking for a game that contains vast landscapes to explore, I’m afraid that you won’t find them here. Each section of the map is clearly defined and presented to you when you enter specific areas; some may see this as a fault, but it seems that giving Fable the same huge world maps to explore (such as the ones in Zelda) would only pad in extra hours of gameplay that may not have necessarily benefited the game because of the way the game is structured.
