well thats exactly how i view morrowind, the be all-end all of rpg's. and could we help but compare the two? the way fable was described years ago, it seemed like it would be just like morrowind. thats what i was hoping for. i still like fable, just not as much as i liked morrowind.

I agree that morrowind has more to do but the environment isnt as fun to mess with. ie. its always dark and raining in balmora and well i hate the people that walk around and be mean to u. I would have to choose fable cuz its alot more fun than morrowind

Fable. Morrowind is too long for my tastes and the combat is just shit.>.<

Apples and oranges....comparing Fable to Baldur's Gate is a lot more fair...and Im really not sure which one would win. I think BG was at least as entertaining for at least as long...probably longer. Fable was a very enjoyable experience, but I dont think Ill ever play through it again..where as Morrowind is still calling. Ive done the fighter, mage, and archer(which ended up being a better swordsman than archer but o well), and I still really want to play a thief, and see how much of the Necromancer sidequest stuff I can do. Fable was a good game, but the trademark of a great game (in my opinion) is replay value...and if/when there is a Fable 2 (the non-linear, open ended, endless replay valued game that I was expecting rather than the BG #14 hack and slash that I got) hopefully it will join Morrowind on my "still jonesing to play a year later" list. This one didnt quite make it.

Well I like them both equally. I love the world of Morrowind. Its really big and has endless places to explore. What I love the most is that you can go ANYWHERE! land, sea, or sky. There is a huge amount of different weapons, items, clothing, armor, and fun quests. You can play forever it seems. YOU CAN PICK ALMOST EVERYTHING UP. Its just so fun. The number one thing about Morrowind is its total freedom and reality. The thing I like about fable is how nice the environments look and the way your character changes and looks. In morrowind the characters arent that pretty and you arent allowed the kind of customization that Fable offers. Tattoos, haircuts, scars, aging, hair color, eyes, halos and horns are all the things you can play around with in Fable allowing for a unique character every time. Also the music is very good opposed to morrowinds music which really got on my nerves. Both of these games have their ups and downs.. but what would be really awesome is if you took the natural character cuztomization from fable and threw it in morrowind along with the pretty environments and music, then that would be a killer game. Its like having your cool customized character running around a beautiful world with total freedom and unlimited opportunities, all the while beautiful music plays in the background. That my friends, would be the ideal game.

Fable for me. I can see how some people picked Morrowind.

Morrowind you can get a fishing rod, but you can't fish with it, unforgivable for me. Although you can just use your sword, lol those things are more like beasts anyway than fish.

I've put more hours into Morrowind around 60, but I just like how the characters show more personality in Fable for the most part.

Morrowind I get bored of looking at alot of the same environments too. Although both games didn't have season changing or anything.

I never did play Morrowind GOTY edition just the regular one. My pick is Fable though. You can't rent out houses in Morrowind, although you can put your stuff whereever you want. I liked the story in Fable better too, easier to follow less thinking.

I prefer Fable. Fable just seems like a more solid game. the graphics are beautiful and the fighting kicks ass. the character costumization kicks ass and it is just more fun all around. Morrowind is too big, the fighting sucks, and the world seems kinda dead. people just stay in one place the whole time.

Fable is more my taste... but kotor is best all around. i can't see how someone in an earlier post said it doesnt have that much replay value... come on, it has the most of all of them. u can be good or bad and the storyline totally changes whether ur good or evil.

i could never get into morrowind, just steal expensive stuff from mage guild and sell to creeper, then buy your skills up. Rinse - repeat . Maybe its simply because i played morrowind that way , rather than going through whole game ^^

My fellow gamers, all you guys need is www.adellion.com This game is like a massively multiplayer online Morrowind/ Fable/Starwars Galaxies.

But uhhh, as for me, I liked morrowind a bit better just because Im a klepto and love sneaking around stealing and stabbing people lol. Morrowind gave you more freedom.You could snipe people off roof tops, find alternative entries into buildings,and had a bunch of guilds you could join including a thief AND assasin guild.

And I have only played elder scrolls 3.

Fable isn't the greatest rpg of all time, but it is a hell of alot better than Morrowind. Morrowind was too slowly paced, it had not voiceovers and you had to read every little thing, and the combat was absolutley horrible. Fable's combat isn't excellent, but it is very good, the graphics are awesome, it is face paced, it is very fun to play. I like Fable much better than Morrowind.

2 things on fable:
#1- its too short, i beat it on accident within 8 hours, and its too easy to get all the ultimate equiptment
#2- no jumping, enough said

Morrowind has Fable beat in game length, and the free-roaming, larger, more complex 3d environment(though it still has no climbing to it). That's all...

Fable, in it's short life span, has Morrowind knocked out of the water on the fun factor.

I find Morrowind's scenery ugly, depressing, lifeless, and dull. As are the characters and gameplay. I can only stand playing for so long before it just becomes Bethseda's version of counting sheep.

Fable's environment is beautiful, the characters HAVE character and ARE interesting, and even though the quests are few, they are a hell of a lot more fun to do than anything on Morrowind. The story is more interesting. The character's appearance changes and interaction due to how you play is indeed original (to the best of my knowledge atm)...

I LOVE seeing the people flee in fear as my devilish villain struts through town, or hear the children laugh when I kick the chickens for distance. The guards taunts, the people's reactions to you and little whispers about you. On the other hand, the completed admiration and awe that they have when your hero returns to the village, sporting his new found halo.

Yes, there is room for improvement, as there is for any game. ESPECIALLY when they're trying something new. But if you ask between Fable and Morrowind... I'd say Fable everyday and twice on Sunday.

I like them both... Each have their advantages and disadvantages. I do like fable more though I like the combat system a lot better than in morrowind where you have to build your skills which determines how often you hit your target which is just retarted with the bow you can have your crosshairs right on and miss 3 or 4 times before you hit it.
I really like the aging and the stuff that forms your character that really gives fable an edge like the scars and the tattoos and how your guy gets bigger when you master the strengths and not to mention turning good or evil.

one other thing if a banndit or an outlaw in morrowind wants a toll for passing in morrowind you either need to pay up or kill him... morrowind you free to pass until you talk to him, and that happens on a couple of occasions.
Then there's the fact of reading all that stuff... I'm a slow reader so that just adds to frustration
