* FranchiseOriginalSin: The first ''Fable'' had plenty of advertised and promised features that never materialized in the finished product. Audiences didn't mind, because ''Fable'' was still an impressive technical achievement and an interesting new game of its kind. It was only as the years rolled on, with ever more elaborate promises leading into ever more disappointing games, that audiences turned on the franchise and the creator.

* CatharsisFactor: You can completely humiliate Thunder, if you so choose. Namely: you can kill his sister (who has the same condescending attitude), steal his wife, humiliate him in a fight, and then in the Lost Chapters, you have the choice between killing him for good measure or letting him live with his failures.

** Theresa has an incredibly cool backstory and character design: An ActionGirl DisabledBadass who's also a BlindSeer, having had her eyes gouged out as a child by the BigBad, then MadeASlave by a group of bandits, only for her to rise to the position of second-in-command of the gang by her own merits and killing anyone who stood in her way. Unfortunately, in actual gameplay, all she gets to do is being a DamselInDistress and MrExposition. There is never an opportunity to see her famed skills for yourself (for instance by teaming up on a quest), nor interact with her and maybe catch up in a way that isn't strictly about the Hero's destiny and the game's main plot.

*** Battle Charge makes the player character invincible for it's entire animation and Charges can be strung together with repeated casting to keep the player invincible, while also doing some damage.

* ItsEasySoItSucks!: Fable originally had only one difficulty setting and it was practically impossible to get a 'game over' due to easy availability of instant healing items, the Resurrection Phials, as well as Physical Shield which is essentially invincibility so long as the player has some cheap and abundant Mana potions. Eventually a 'Heroic' difficulty mode was added as a response to this criticism. Selecting the Heroic option for a new game would make enemies more damaging, more abundant, and remove Resurrection Phials.

** Nymphs spend most of their time rapidly flying around while invincible which makes them hard to keep track of when not locked-onto. If the player does lock on to a Nymph the speed and odd angles at which they fly can make it hard to keep track of other enemies and can even be NauseaFuel due to how fast the player's perspective is moving around. The only times they become vulnerable is when shooting AreaOfEffect projectiles at the player or when using their MookMaker summon ability. Scoring a melee kill on nymphs is especially annoying as normally they can only be hit by melee attacks while they're summoning minions.

** Marriage, since there's exactly one character in the game you can marry who isn't a generic faceless NPC. While the later games in the series add more interactions with spouses such as the ability to go on dates with them and raise children, here your interactions with your spouse are quite limited to waving hello to them, doing expressions, and having (blacked out) cutscenes of going to bed with them.

** The player character has 'Attractiveness' and 'Scariness' stats that have a mild influence on N.P.C reactions, mostly in the form of the offhand comments they make. Attractiveness makes N.P.Cs become attracted to the player character more quickly, which can be useful if you're trying to get a spouse but it is mostly influenced by the player's choice of hairstyle so gaining attractiveness is very easy.
