Looks good but I’m not going to spend that much for an HD version of what I already have
Thoughts?

Is it actually an update if you’ve already played the PC version? It says a new lighting system but I don’t know.

I don’t know about the PC version, but the console version is apparently fucking awful. (Source: Polygon)

In so many ways, it’s a only-somewhat playable mess, a collection of parts that feels less tightly sewn together than it did all those years ago. Take the camera, for example, which might charitably be called unfocused. It would more accurately be called wildly broken.

Even here, there are problems: Fable Anniversary’s performance is an embarrassment. The framerate drops precipitously and seemingly at random, making the series’ traditionally soggy controls even less reliable.

Fatal quest problems from the original game that would halt progress and require, at best, a load of a much earlier save, have been preserved for this new release. Fable in 2004 was notorious for hardware crashes; in my time with Fable Anniversary for review, the game locked up my Xbox 360 six times. A simple Google search in the week since release reveals numerous users suffering from problems that Fable veterans recall from their initial playthroughs. In 2004.

I’ve played the original PC version and it works just fine for me. Issues seem to just be console only.
