Your Hero. Your Choice

I know I've been talking this entire time about how Fable 3 has this whole open world but that it does have consequences. Well, I figured it was high time I told you about them. In the game, you come across multiple instances where you, as the hero need to make a decision. Sometimes these decisions are simple and don't have very far reaching repercussions. However, there are other times when you need to make a decision and you don't like either choice, but a decision still needs to be made (trust me you'll have to make a decision like this very early in the game and it isn't pleasant). A few of these choices happen later in the game as well and I applaud Lionhead for upping the adult and maturity factor on the choices in these decisions. If you ever pick up the game or have already, you will know (or soon will if you decide to pick it up) what I'm talking about. These far reaching repercussions are seen within the game, and can sometimes be obvious from the choices you've made, such as building an orphanage for the street children, or putting them to work as forced labor. Others can be subtle, such as deciding who is the victor in a law case, and dealing with the angry noble who you stopped from stealing someone's land or the farmer now destitute because of you. Like the title of this post says; "Your Hero. Your Choice."
