The track "Temple of Light" from the game Fable on Xbox by Lionhead Studios. DOWNLOAD LINK rapidshare.com/... (Uploaded by MickealFreaks) Composed by Russell Shaw.
I remember leaving the game on pause, playing this song while I would go to sleep. Now I really understand why Fable made such a huge impact on me: It was the music. I felt that the game was kinda short though. Or maybe it only seemed so; time does fly when you enjoy it.
Fable, when you go into it around the late 2000s as a kid, is an experience that has a weird hold on you. The gameplay, the story, the choices, *the music.* There's some real magic here in these memories.
You didn't ask for this fate. The light emanates from your gloved hands, searing the leather. You look into the water and see your face, You see two faces staring back, the ripples fluctuating between the two. Both wear smiles, one sinister and one kind. Both wear crowns, one of horns and the other of light. You can choose either, but you have to choose one. But fate has sewn you to a path. You wish you weren't tied to this Fable so.
God..The first fable..such deep seeded story. I literally fell in love with this game. Everything about it was...just so deep. Honestly I don't care if this is sad but I have based my life on some of the things I learned from this game.
I'm feeling the same way as you. Today, 16 years after I have played this game, I am developing a video game. Even though I exactly know what you mean, I would like to ask you what exactly felt so deep for you. Input like this helps me getting inspired. I doubt you will answer after 10 years, but it's important enough to give it a try.
For me personally, it was the combination of so many things. The story, your choices, your actions and consequences, the characters, the landscape, the atmosphere, but the glue that held it all together for me was the soundtrack. The right music can help create a world you can get completely lost in. A certain kind of therapy for your soul you didn't know you needed.
@@Beta_FusionAmen brother. I wish Playground games know what they are doing and understand what legendary series they have been given, so we could’ve relive that joy again in Fable 4 when it will come out. It’s the most awaited game in my list.
Not sad at all. Totally understandable. This game showed us that life has choices and consequences. And being a young child with an impactful mind those choices were meaningful to us at the time. Imagination can be powerful
@@SuperNormalMan the crawler in fable 3 was more weaker than fable 1 was I think jack get more screen time than his Darkness itself did only thing dark the darkness said was lines like this ( ***>> ) - where the lines are like we was the darkness until we picked our regions to become lighter to show ourselfs ============================ ( ***>> ) are you bilnd yet - The childen want to play you are a fragile thing... You and your kind dissolve so easily - Like none of us know that before You feed us! You feed us - like darkness is part of the world - ( crawler ) without an anti-chirst than christians would be building their region for near no point crawler has been more right than christian wanted it to be a Evil Sign ============================ darkness is harder to dissolve than light because of one thing ( World was in darkness before us get put there to being the light which is half as good as darkness with problems by dark areas ) if you be 100% Evil than the crawler would be close to minor the player because he fall of darkness and by getting to become an tyranny is would makes the player as evil as the craweler himself so he over taken by the player because ( tyranny can`t overtake an tyranny new ruler ) because they done the same things ( wanted power over his land like the crawer wanted too
@@SuperNormalMan You do realise that Blue Box stood behind original Fable project and Lionhead was only helping them out to finish the product right on Microsoft demand?
I don't even think you realize how right you are. Sure, there's nostalgia in this, I played this from waking up to sleeping, but I'm not much for nostalgia, and I still have the creeping feeling that this game created nostalgia on its OWN. There's something about this game. The music. The characters. The story. And frankley, I don't care if I'm making into "more" than it is, 'cause I really believe it should be regarded as something to be in awe for. If I'd use a word, it'd be "haunting".
So beautiful... I sense innocence and lost of innocence at the same time. Good without knowing evil, until you find what evil is and suffer, not ever being able to go back.
I loved that cave in the dark forest when you are escorting those traders through the dark forest where there are werewolves lurking.. You find that talking stone head cave door person.. You solve the riddle and he opens his door.... Its this secret fucking garden in the dark forest with a fountain... a little lake... beautiful lights and stone with this mystical music playing...... Its like this hidden safe place in the dark dark scary forest in the night....
Fable always had a special way about it. It was a game that showed the adventure, the sadness, the treasure and the lose is such a way that even to this day, going back to your consoles, and finding fable, makes you want to sit down and replay it all over again, and experience the entire story all over again. For those who don't know the game and are interested, i can't recommend it, because i cannot tell you what to love, i can only invite you to try something that to this day is one of the most loved adventure games out there.
There was such a distinct vibe to this game, from the story and fusion of light/dark tonality to the music. Definitely a stand out title, which I assume every gamer who grew up playing will never forget.
Каждый год периодически возвращаюсь к этому треку, переживая моменты тревоги и беспомощности. Всегда хочется верить во что-то хорошее и светлое, и ценить, если оно в жизни у вас есть.
I played Fable TLC when i was 6. This music really remained in my memory so far. That place where Temple od light is played is so amazing, even though then i was really small kid it significantly impressed me
This piece of music is one of the songs that has been occasionally looping in my head for a very long time. Hearing it for real for the first time in ages gives me mega nostalgia.
Something about listening to this song in the dark, mind being empty, it gives me a sense of reality on how life is a mystery, and it will always be a mystery. I dont understand why or how it does, it just does
Finally someone more recent, felt like I was digging up old memories. This track has such a sad aura to it that these comments give me melancholic vibes.
How can a song be so earthly and celestial at the same time. The single most calming song ive ever heard in my life so far, im so glad i grew up watching my mom play Fable so much, its probably had a deeper impact on me than i know. Despite the bad choices companies make, media has a way of impacting people more than any of us can understand whether you choose to acknowledge it or not; same as consciousness itself. The Greek origins for the word "history" is linked to one of the Greek Muse's Clio, whom is "the proclaimer" and is associated (among other related things) with proclaiming the stories of heroic acts, thus a mythological & etymological origin for history is heroic acts and telling them to people (the other muses are examples of the different ways in which to share these stories). How has stories, the Arts (music, illustration, literature, videos games, etc.) impacted you? Do you let it or acknowledge it? Sometimes magic isnt about the circumstances of how things came into existence, its the fact that it exists because of life, creation, and destruction; and sometimes magic is just your own personal feelings. There is magic in the air itself, what people have done with our carbon dioxide excretion is a lot; but the things that have stood the test of time is the Arts, or rather the ones that was able to survive the many horrible deeds in that time. Maybe this is a too deep of a comment for a silly song from a silly game, as im sure many modern gamers would see this as. But as far as i see it, being a or into nerdy things wasnt just a hobby in the beginning. Im sure many things that have been popularized came from oddball, if not demonized origins of peoples interests but i can only think of 2 example for the modern era; video games and serial killers/"true crime". Being interested and (literally) reading into serial killers and murders used to be a very scary thing to be witnessed doing, you would've been seen as a freak and now its borderline normal to say youre interested in such things. We have come far in 2 decades. And being a nerd (although i dont know a lot about the history, or the grandfathers to our accepted nerdy norm) used to be a borderline magical thing. Finding good games and spending your time investing yourself into them, because they were really hard back in the day (and not in the rage style games that are made now that are intent on making you feel that) or you just wanted to find all the secrets, or you simply really enjoy it. The local group of nerds was a thing you had to find for yourself in just the right places if you weren't lucky enough to already have nerdy friends, and to see how you guys raised each other up because of this oddball understanding. I dont want to say a "true" nerd so ill say "classical" instead is genuinely socially awkward, not in a cute way either, in a borderline detrimental to yourself if you are socially active constantly. Thats why you had so much time to invest yourself into the games you love. Loving games wasnt about "whats the next most cool game by the best company that will make a ton of sales and everyone is gonna have it", it was about what made the nerd in you, your own person, spark in nerdy joy. Games were passion projects, at least the best ones can be, and if they didnt start that way it was still made with enough integrity that the player could find something good in it despite its flaws (glitches, bugs, saving errors, etc.) in fact sometimes it made it better, albeit more frustrating. My main point about "classical" nerds is that, for many this just kind of goes over peoples heads or they just dont care, but *a lot* of nerdy stuff comes from ancient (most of the time European) Pagan mythology. It is quite hard to look into throughly for reasons i wont get into rn because this is long enough already, but most nerdy concepts come from the remnants of Pagan mythology. I do say that mythology has been casted off as just stories, but they are just as religious as the bible is for Christians, but not in the same way for reasons, again, that i wont go into because this is long enough already; but a key word i have been interested in when thinking about this subject is "archetypes", thats all ill say. No matter how much people deny it, these timeless things have magic, and impact. The excuses or demeaning nature of the people caught up in the popularization of video games is sad, we all enjoy things how we do for ourselves, but when did it turn into a battle of how good the games are instead of the fact that we like them despite their flaws?
Медленно вращаются аттракционы лунапарка. Мимо проезжают два чёрных брата В плавно прыгающем "Кодилаке". Мы с собакой плывём на космической яхте. Неторопливо я, без скафандра, Вдыхаю невесомость - выдыхаю сладкую вату. В руке банка "Ягуара" - это моё космическое топливо...
I can't even explain the feelings i get when i listen to this. . . and the memories of having a tough time and letting it out playing some Fable no other fable will compare to this masterpiece
I first played Fable when I was 8 years old on someone else's Xbox, maybe I was a bit too young for some of the themes but I fell in love with the atmospheric music and I've been into RPGs ever since.
13 years ago my bro's friend left this game (and Morrowind) at our house on accident. Slipping into this game felt like finding a portal to another world. 13 years later and I still come back to this song... there's just something so haunting and different about it
Grew up playing this game on the original Xbox. Every time I hear it, it brings a tear to my eye. There is something very unique about this track that really just encapsulates that era. There is nothing else like it. When you hear this track, it is hard not to get lost in your memories. Did a playthrough a few years back and it still holds up in my opinion. Such an amazing game.
i played fable 2 when i was 6 years old i was ensnared by the magic and mystery this game emanated. I love fable with all my heart, such a shame that the series died so fast.
One of my favorite songs ever. Just so simple and beautiful. Soothing, relaxing, but also eerie in a way. Like a lost soul floating through an empty abyss.
This would fit right into the soundtrack for Silent Hill 2. It is at the same time tranquil and peaceful, but also there is an uneasiness, a foreboding. It perfectly captures the duality of the game - the struggle between light and dark, good and evil. Truly masterful track.
This track feels so otherworldly, so mystical and wonderous Yet with nothing but the whisper of an almost magical chime, it feels so powerful in a strange way Fable didn't just tell a tale It created a world and a feeling that is so deeply intertwined with it I feel Fable is the definitive version of a unique kind of fantasy setting, one that we don't see often Despite how far the map stretches, you still feel there's so much the people of Albion haven't discovered And no matter how deep or intricate the guild's teachings may become, the libraries seem like they may never hold all the knowledge the world can offer Even the circular room with all the past events leaves out so much from the protagonist's own personal tale It always felt like there was so much more than what we could see hear or read, and i've never come across a fantasy world that felt like this before I so deeply wish the franchise was still around and well, for i ache so much to see more of this magnificent world And worst of all _No amount of donations to the temple of light has solved this problem_
Have you read the novels and short downloadable stories? Also the various books hidden throughout the game tell more and the talking stones in Snowspire!
Its sad, considering that the first Fable game was also the peak of the series, and you can see it even more with Fable 4. What a Melancholic game, both in game and the real world...
I wonder if I’m the only one who feels sad when I hear this. It’s an amazing piece, but it sounds sad to me. I still love all the fable games and wish they’d make a 4th one
Hi, since i was a child i always felt a kinda sad and dramatic vibe in this song, also nostalgia while i was playing it come back. This is a weird feeling but this song is more than that. I hope you will see my message one day.
@@akiira3571 I saw your message the same day, hello. That’s pretty much how I feel, it’s just so well written, there’s hardly any game out there that has a musical piece in it that can literally change my thoughts and how I’m feeling. Purely amazing
I still play this game once a year. Every year... since 2005. May this piece of art, known as Fable, be preserved for all of the rest of human history. I have never loved a game so much in my life. This song makes me feel things, like I used to... Thank you so much Lionhead. Fable, The Lost Chapters, Fable 2, and yes... even Fable 3, helped me in so many ways. And they've stuck with me forever. But the original Fable feels like it is actually bound to my being. I hope I never know life without this work of art. And I hope someday, I can somehow completely forget it. Like amnesia or something... just to see it for the first time, all over again.
I can see myself all those years ago playing fable Christmas morning on my crystal Xbox so much has happened so much time since then but I hear this and I’m young again and the magic over takes me this game is part of who I am merry Christmas everyone
Pulled out my 360 and started playing the series again..its literally just as i remembered. I wish they made games as good and haunting as this one was
Peaceful, subtle, no threats, but a little eerie too. I can picture this actually kinda being for something akin to Lavender town. Only instead of "creepyness" it has a sense of loss and mourning. Which Lavender Town also possessed, but the creepyness outweighed it.
I honestly dont know why this game affected me so much. Ive played countless games since and before and nothing, no rpg or action game has come even close to creating the immersive and maigcal feel that Fable did for me. I remember even after beating the game I continued to play. And then fable 2 came out and for some reason the magic was gone :/ Its really hard to say what Lionhead did wrong. But heres to hoping someone or some company can recreate the fable magic someday.
В Fable 2 я играл когда я был ещё маленьким со своей мамой. Когда я Ложился спать, я поставил игру на паузу, и о черт, эту музыку можно слушать бесконечно.. Эта игра Самая лучшая в которую я когда либо играл
I miss fable, playing through it the first time and experiencing the music and the world, I may never get that same feeling I did as a child, but this song still hits me the same way it did all those years ago.
New fable announced, but looks like it might be woke and bad sadly. "Updating the game for modern audiences and sensibilities" which ruins the whole point as I remember the game as being very dirty minded and immature jokes that kids wouldn't get but adults playing along could laugh with, especially going back I notice it and makes me laugh.
DUDE i used to play this game a lot when i was younger at my babysitters house. but i never knew the name of it. thank god i clicked on that link cuz i wouldve never found the name of this game or this song.
I still remember the first time I heard this. I just figured out the Demon Door puzzle in The Guild. It stumped me for a month or two, but I got it. I step inside and I hear it. I see a pond, a chair and table with two big bookshelves, and a chest with a Willmaster's Elixir inside. It was, breathtaking. I instinctively put my controller down and just layed in my bed absorbing every pluck of the harps. The order in one harp and chaos in the other. Both peices coming together to form, life.
Am I the only one who got a sorta fairy tale vibe from the games? Like specifically Fable 2, playing it and listening to the music made me feel like I was in some old fairy tale book kept all the way in the back of a library, its cover faded and coated in a layer of dust, the pages smelling of that old book smell and the stories pulling you in and making you feel like you were in another world.
everytime they make a new fable, i buy it, hoping it is as wonderful and enchanting as the first. but it never happens, and that is why i cry myself to sleep everynight
I can stop playing the game whenever this comes on and listen to the music for hours, which is probably why i had a hard time starting fable 2 when that came out
Я один-два раза перепроходил Fable во многом за тем, чтобы под конец сюжета привести персонажа в коридор арены, украшенный величественными статуями героев, и, наблюдая за суровым взором их каменных глаз, послушать эту прекрасную мелодию.
This gives me nostalgia without even playing it in my life. My first time I saw a Fable game was when my uncle played the second one. I was too young to understand it, but when Fable III came out, my dad got it. I played it and I loved it. Since the second Fable, I fell in love. If only I had the same feeling for this one, for I get a nostalgic feeling for a game I’ve never played.
I yern for this feeling Fable The lost chapters was by far the game I enjoyed from start to end, The feel of the world the story....omg the story it had such an impact on me. I would feel so conflicted and sometimes agitated when I had to make certain choices especially with this theme playing it was like i was drawn between good and evil. When i first found out my sister was alive I nearly cried the dialog and impact you made on the world! Ugh this is and always will be my FAVORITE rpg of all time, I still replay it to this very day. It has a special place in my heart this was the first rpg I Played and I fell in love so quick with it. I even enjoyed Fable 2 I thought it was actually pretty fun and compelling with its story and the stuff you could do. I even liked Fable 3(Least favorite) but then again it could be because the Fable series in General really does have a special place in my heart I remember coming home from school and seeing my cousin had bought me Fable 2 I've not felt joy like that in so so long! miss those days..
Im glad someone feels the same way I do about that game, some truly magical about that game, maybe it was the fact that the hero didnt speak, and that the storyline as one of cliche or classical. But it was done so beautifully. My favorite single player game of all time, nothing even comes close.
this is one of the greatest video game songs ever.
I was 14 when this comment was made, we must never waste time boys, lest our stories run long with no real payoff.
I played this game when i was 9... Memories
Wtf i was 8, however it might also be one of the greatest video games
I first played this when I was 5. Still play it to this day but the remastered version 👍
I was 10 when this comment was made, i started playing The lost Chapters when i was 8, amazing times on the original xbox
The fable series really had a special magic to it.
PyroTentacle past tense ... the games aren't really relevant anymore so past tense would be correct.
peachylin the first one was unique though
hell yeah.

I felt that the game was kinda short though. Or maybe it only seemed so; time does fly when you enjoy it.
such a thing occurs when something speaks to your soul and echoes within you

You didn't ask for this fate.

You look into the water and see your face,
You see two faces staring back, the ripples fluctuating between the two.
Both wear smiles, one sinister and one kind.
Both wear crowns, one of horns and the other of light.
You can choose either, but you have to choose one.
But fate has sewn you to a path.
You wish you weren't tied to this Fable so.

@@SuperNormalMan
the crawler in fable 3 was more weaker than fable 1 was
I think jack get more screen time than his Darkness itself did
only thing dark the darkness said was lines like this ( ***>> ) - where the lines are
like we was the darkness until we picked our regions to become lighter to show ourselfs
============================
( ***>> )
are you bilnd yet -
The childen want to play
you are a fragile thing... You and your kind dissolve so easily - Like none of us know that before
You feed us! You feed us - like darkness is part of the world - ( crawler )
without an anti-chirst than christians would be building their region for near no point
crawler has been more right than christian wanted it to be a Evil Sign
============================
darkness is harder to dissolve than light because of one thing ( World was in darkness before us get put there to being the light which is half as good as darkness with problems by dark areas )
if you be 100% Evil
than the crawler would be close to minor the player because he fall of darkness and by getting to become an tyranny is would makes the player as evil as the craweler himself so he over taken by the player because ( tyranny can`t overtake an tyranny new ruler ) because they done the same things ( wanted power over his land like the crawer wanted too

The local group of nerds was a thing you had to find for yourself in just the right places if you weren't lucky enough to already have nerdy friends, and to see how you guys raised each other up because of this oddball understanding. I dont want to say a "true" nerd so ill say "classical" instead is genuinely socially awkward, not in a cute way either, in a borderline detrimental to yourself if you are socially active constantly. Thats why you had so much time to invest yourself into the games you love.
Loving games wasnt about "whats the next most cool game by the best company that will make a ton of sales and everyone is gonna have it", it was about what made the nerd in you, your own person, spark in nerdy joy. Games were passion projects, at least the best ones can be, and if they didnt start that way it was still made with enough integrity that the player could find something good in it despite its flaws (glitches, bugs, saving errors, etc.) in fact sometimes it made it better, albeit more frustrating.
My main point about "classical" nerds is that, for many this just kind of goes over peoples heads or they just dont care, but *a lot* of nerdy stuff comes from ancient (most of the time European) Pagan mythology. It is quite hard to look into throughly for reasons i wont get into rn because this is long enough already, but most nerdy concepts come from the remnants of Pagan mythology. I do say that mythology has been casted off as just stories, but they are just as religious as the bible is for Christians, but not in the same way for reasons, again, that i wont go into because this is long enough already; but a key word i have been interested in when thinking about this subject is "archetypes", thats all ill say.
No matter how much people deny it, these timeless things have magic, and impact. The excuses or demeaning nature of the people caught up in the popularization of video games is sad, we all enjoy things how we do for ourselves, but when did it turn into a battle of how good the games are instead of the fact that we like them despite their flaws?
I think that's one of the deepest things I've read
This song is so good it makes me nostalgic for a game I never played.
That's called Anemoia.
Медленно вращаются аттракционы лунапарка.
Мимо проезжают два чёрных брата
В плавно прыгающем "Кодилаке".
Мы с собакой плывём на космической яхте.
Неторопливо я, без скафандра,
Вдыхаю невесомость - выдыхаю сладкую вату.
В руке банка "Ягуара" - это моё космическое топливо...
I can't even explain the feelings i get when i listen to this. . . and the memories of having a tough time and letting it out playing some Fable no other fable will compare to this masterpiece
hope you're still playing
Made a similar comment. The feeling is *unique* to say the least.
I first played Fable when I was 8 years old on someone else's Xbox, maybe I was a bit too young for some of the themes but I fell in love with the atmospheric music and I've been into RPGs ever since.
13 years ago my bro's friend left this game (and Morrowind) at our house on accident. Slipping into this game felt like finding a portal to another world. 13 years later and I still come back to this song... there's just something so haunting and different about it
Grew up playing this game on the original Xbox. Every time I hear it, it brings a tear to my eye. There is something very unique about this track that really just encapsulates that era. There is nothing else like it. When you hear this track, it is hard not to get lost in your memories. Did a playthrough a few years back and it still holds up in my opinion. Such an amazing game.
i played fable 2 when i was 6 years old i was ensnared by the magic and mystery this game emanated. I love fable with all my heart, such a shame that the series died so fast.
One of my favorite songs ever. Just so simple and beautiful. Soothing, relaxing, but also eerie in a way. Like a lost soul floating through an empty abyss.
This to me is more Fable than the actual Fable theme
To me, this track is more that just Fable
omg nostalgia! miss my childhood
I love this, when I first heard it I melted
This song never fails to take me back to simpler times.
2022 here saying that we really need a simple slideshow of badass moments in Albion accompanied with this song.
Is there another OST that sounds this magical, mysterious and beautiful but really sad at the same time
"Secunda" from Skyrim is similar to this one.
Silent hill 2 soundtrack
This would fit right into the soundtrack for Silent Hill 2. It is at the same time tranquil and peaceful, but also there is an uneasiness, a foreboding. It perfectly captures the duality of the game - the struggle between light and dark, good and evil. Truly masterful track.
Absolutely love this game.
And so our story begins
But who is the hero of our tale?
Then let his/her destiny unfold
Damn you made me wanna replay Fable 2
@@Menma933 haha, good, very good
This track feels so otherworldly, so mystical and wonderous
Yet with nothing but the whisper of an almost magical chime, it feels so powerful in a strange way
Fable didn't just tell a tale
It created a world and a feeling that is so deeply intertwined with it
I feel Fable is the definitive version of a unique kind of fantasy setting, one that we don't see often
Despite how far the map stretches, you still feel there's so much the people of Albion haven't discovered
And no matter how deep or intricate the guild's teachings may become, the libraries seem like they may never hold all the knowledge the world can offer
Even the circular room with all the past events leaves out so much from the protagonist's own personal tale
It always felt like there was so much more than what we could see hear or read, and i've never come across a fantasy world that felt like this before
I so deeply wish the franchise was still around and well, for i ache so much to see more of this magnificent world
And worst of all
_No amount of donations to the temple of light has solved this problem_
there will be a new fable :)
@Char Aznable then watch this please th-cam.com/video/jdxE1j0hBJg/w-d-xo.html :P
Have you read the novels and short downloadable stories? Also the various books hidden throughout the game tell more and the talking stones in Snowspire!
Hearing this music many years later brings back something of me that i’ve lost as the time passed.
Purity and beauty of childhood
Its sad, considering that the first Fable game was also the peak of the series, and you can see it even more with Fable 4. What a Melancholic game, both in game and the real world...
I wonder if I’m the only one who feels sad when I hear this. It’s an amazing piece, but it sounds sad to me. I still love all the fable games and wish they’d make a 4th one
Hi, since i was a child i always felt a kinda sad and dramatic vibe in this song, also nostalgia while i was playing it come back. This is a weird feeling but this song is more than that. I hope you will see my message one day.
@@akiira3571 I saw your message the same day, hello. That’s pretty much how I feel, it’s just so well written, there’s hardly any game out there that has a musical piece in it that can literally change my thoughts and how I’m feeling. Purely amazing
@@dudders___1684 Yes i agree, you respond quickly lol, i will never forget the feeling that i get from it.
just all these memories that come over me when i hear this really brings tears to my eyes
I still play this game once a year. Every year... since 2005. May this piece of art, known as Fable, be preserved for all of the rest of human history. I have never loved a game so much in my life. This song makes me feel things, like I used to... Thank you so much Lionhead. Fable, The Lost Chapters, Fable 2, and yes... even Fable 3, helped me in so many ways. And they've stuck with me forever.
But the original Fable feels like it is actually bound to my being. I hope I never know life without this work of art. And I hope someday, I can somehow completely forget it. Like amnesia or something... just to see it for the first time, all over again.
I can’t wait to show this to my son he’s turning 5 this year
Yes
Amen
Anyone else thinking about replaying it? =]]
Just finished it yesterday
I can see myself all those years ago playing fable Christmas morning on my crystal Xbox so much has happened so much time since then but I hear this and I’m young again and the magic over takes me this game is part of who I am merry Christmas everyone
This makes me think of how I’ve grown and I’m not a kid anymore. Time flies
This music embodies the many memories fans have of playing the 'Fable' series. Nothing conjures the feeling better.
Pulled out my 360 and started playing the series again..its literally just as i remembered. I wish they made games as good and haunting as this one was
Peaceful, subtle, no threats, but a little eerie too.
I can picture this actually kinda being for something akin to Lavender town.
Only instead of "creepyness"
it has a sense of loss and mourning.
Which Lavender Town also possessed, but the creepyness outweighed it.
I imagine, that this is what plays on our way to judgement, or whatever is directly after life.
Back then when times were simpler... 😕
I honestly dont know why this game affected me so much. Ive played countless games since and before and nothing, no rpg or action game has come even close to creating the immersive and maigcal feel that Fable did for me. I remember even after beating the game I continued to play. And then fable 2 came out and for some reason the magic was gone :/ Its really hard to say what Lionhead did wrong. But heres to hoping someone or some company can recreate the fable magic someday.
Forever.
В Fable 2 я играл когда я был ещё маленьким со своей мамой. Когда я Ложился спать, я поставил игру на паузу, и о черт, эту музыку можно слушать бесконечно.. Эта игра Самая лучшая в которую я когда либо играл
I miss fable, playing through it the first time and experiencing the music and the world, I may never get that same feeling I did as a child, but this song still hits me the same way it did all those years ago.
New fable announced, but looks like it might be woke and bad sadly. "Updating the game for modern audiences and sensibilities" which ruins the whole point as I remember the game as being very dirty minded and immature jokes that kids wouldn't get but adults playing along could laugh with, especially going back I notice it and makes me laugh.
DUDE i used to play this game a lot when i was younger at my babysitters house. but i never knew the name of it. thank god i clicked on that link cuz i wouldve never found the name of this game or this song.
I still remember the first time I heard this. I just figured out the Demon Door puzzle in The Guild. It stumped me for a month or two, but I got it. I step inside and I hear it. I see a pond, a chair and table with two big bookshelves, and a chest with a Willmaster's Elixir inside. It was, breathtaking. I instinctively put my controller down and just layed in my bed absorbing every pluck of the harps. The order in one harp and chaos in the other. Both peices coming together to form, life.
Am I the only one who got a sorta fairy tale vibe from the games? Like specifically Fable 2, playing it and listening to the music made me feel like I was in some old fairy tale book kept all the way in the back of a library, its cover faded and coated in a layer of dust, the pages smelling of that old book smell and the stories pulling you in and making you feel like you were in another world.
She was a fine hero
Just as soft-hearted as you
Qui est encore là en 2024 pour écouter cette masterclass ?
Who is still here in 2024 to listen to this masterclass?
Memories :(
Most mystical sound ever.. only played fable 2 but damn it was a good game..
I never played the fable series as a kid, nor have I really ever played it but it still feels nostalgic
Who’s still here in 2021 then ❤️🖖 live long and prosper heroes
It’s been 7 years since we had heard of this song
I swear to god if this is not in the new fable
It's literally all that I want from the new Fable.
Are they making another one?
@@antipsychotic451 Yeah, it's a reboot.
Fable has a special place it my heart. The game felt like a bedtime story, the hero always struggling but prevailing against the big bad at the end.
god i feel freaking old!!!
This song wispers to your soul....
The first fable was magical.
Can't believe they couldn't remotely keep the same energy.
I played this game when I was only 5, I will never forget Fable II. I would buy a Xbox just for this game.
everytime they make a new fable, i buy it, hoping it is as wonderful and enchanting as the first. but it never happens, and that is why i cry myself to sleep everynight
I can stop playing the game whenever this comes on and listen to the music for hours, which is probably why i had a hard time starting fable 2 when that came out

Я один-два раза перепроходил Fable во многом за тем, чтобы под конец сюжета привести персонажа в коридор арены, украшенный величественными статуями героев, и, наблюдая за суровым взором их каменных глаз, послушать эту прекрасную мелодию.
I always have chills when i listen this music *^* It's so beautiful, so peacefull ! I praise this soundtrack !!

This gives me nostalgia without even playing it in my life. My first time I saw a Fable game was when my uncle played the second one. I was too young to understand it, but when Fable III came out, my dad got it. I played it and I loved it. Since the second Fable, I fell in love. If only I had the same feeling for this one, for I get a nostalgic feeling for a game I’ve never played.
be generous with your soul.... and your purse
Donate to the gods GIVE US YOURE FUCKING MONEY
Charming. That is the word.
@Char Aznable Yes. Very charming.
I yern for this feeling Fable The lost chapters was by far the game I enjoyed from start to end, The feel of the world the story....omg the story it had such an impact on me. I would feel so conflicted and sometimes agitated when I had to make certain choices especially with this theme playing it was like i was drawn between good and evil. When i first found out my sister was alive I nearly cried the dialog and impact you made on the world! Ugh this is and always will be my FAVORITE rpg of all time, I still replay it to this very day. It has a special place in my heart this was the first rpg I Played and I fell in love so quick with it. I even enjoyed Fable 2 I thought it was actually pretty fun and compelling with its story and the stuff you could do. I even liked Fable 3(Least favorite) but then again it could be because the Fable series in General really does have a special place in my heart I remember coming home from school and seeing my cousin had bought me Fable 2 I've not felt joy like that in so so long! miss those days..
So mysterious, sad... yet peaceful...
Стабильно прихожу сюда пару раз в год. Великий саундтрек, моментально находит отклик в душе
i'm having nostalgia even though i haven't heard this game nor play it before. it's music is so emotional and powerful
This song has a really specific feeling that I can't place. It's beautiful
Im glad someone feels the same way I do about that game, some truly magical about that game, maybe it was the fact that the hero didnt speak, and that the storyline as one of cliche or classical. But it was done so beautifully. My favorite single player game of all time, nothing even comes close.
I still come back here from time to time, playground games please don’t let me down.
I have the CD soundtrack and played this song repeatedly
I’ve never played fable yet this music makes me feel nostalgic
My favorite game of all time.
this track could fit easily into a silent hill playlist. great classic xbox game.
