Why is fable rated m

Other than that the character does portray somewhat of a positive role model, when they inevitably remove the evil brother and your character runs the kingdome responsibly.

This title contains: Positive role models. Parent of a 8 and year-old Written by What3v3r June 12, Disable Sex where? My main concern now that we're experiencing the game is I cant figure out how to disable sexual content as touted on this website and others. I have done several internet searches and browsed the game menus but no luck. I am aware that my son can choose to not partake in such adventures but some of the quests sound harmless but then ask you to "seduce" someone out of the blue as part of the quest.

Had I not been there to explain what that word meant he wouldn't have known what he was about to embark upon. Anyways, just a word of caution for parents who think they'll be able to throw a switch to off and walk away. This title contains: Sexy stuff. Adult Written by duddy May 25, Fine for 12 and up This game is not as bad as Common Sense Media makes it out to be. The violence is not very bad at all, just a tiny bit of blood.

Cursing does come up a bit, but not too excessive. The main problem is the sexual themes. If you charm people enough, you will be able to have sex with them no matter the gender, but nothing is shown, only sound effects. Overall, not as bad a a lot of other games, but not for little kids. Adult Written by branson12 May 1, I dont know why this game is rated Not for Kids The violence is definitely not as extreme as many first-person shooters that teenagers play Halo, Call of Duty and sexual content is optional.

Any curse words are no different from what a teenager will hear in any high school. The only thing that parents need to decide is if your child is mature enough for the option of the sexual content. The screen is blocked out when the character engages is sexual intercourse, and again, nothing is said that any teenager wouldnt already know. The game teaches that actions have consequences, and I am happy for my 13 year old to play it.

Parent of a 2-year-old Written by unlikexthexrest March 16, Teens are fine, younger kids may get the wrong idea. As an adult, it's my favorite game. But for a child I wouldn't recommend it unless they have a clear sense of what's acceptable in real-life. It's entertaining, and your character also has moral choices. They also learn that if they are evil, people will act accordingly i. Booing at you, makes it more expensive to buy things and being a good moral person will make people like you and give you store discounts.

Adult Written by Evadog1 January 9, Educational but Parental Guidance Needed to Play I am impressed by the discussion questions generated by the decisions the main character makes throughout this game. I believe they create avenues for critical thinking and moral reasonng. I think some of the sexual content in the game can be used for an avenue for discussion as well e. My biggest concern with the game is some of the violent scenes, and the ability to be evil and kill innocent villagers.

I see that as extremely innapropriate for any age. I belive this is a good game for parents to play with their older children and young adolescents. This game can present learning oppertunities, but isn't the best game for unsupervised play, especially online. Educational Value. Parent of a 2 and 9-year-old Written by gcsears December 4, Hard to recommend, but a good game if comfortable with child's maturity and your ability to manage moral content..

I think this is an excellent game, and with a mature enough child a good parent child game for navigating moral choices. The strength of the game is it provides reinforcing messages for making the "right" choice, but it is also its downfall. I would not let my child play this in my absence. Star Wars Marvel.

I guess in its content thats more or less right, there is a great deal of suggestive content such as the bordello and the violence does include decapitations. Saying that it is all done in a light hearted well spirited kind of way, the overall story theme for instance is quite dark when you dissect it but it is never handled in disturbing way. The overall theme is as close to british humour as you find in a video game, the suggestive sex is no worse than your average carry-on film, always landing on the side of tongue-in-cheek as opposed to smutty.

In the end its your call, when I was 13 I would have been appalled at the thought of any censorship but there weren't any games as explicit as they are now and this is one game that really wouldn't register close to any of the more notorious titles such as GTA or GoW.

Thanks alot : 3DS Friend Code : User Info: masterjed User Info: khrulez. I think it's fine, honestly.. I was around I think when I bought this game, and I really loved it. I guess it depends on your kid, if he's really childish for his age, can't deal with violence well, and giggles like an idiot at the mention of sex, I guess it's not for him. If you really wanna know though, watch some videos, perhaps even go to a gamestore and ask if you can try it out, so you can judge it for yourself.

I mean the ultimate goal is to get the ball in between User Info: RazorX3. I was 13 when I first had Fable and, unless even the site of blood is too much, this ain't a bad game.

The swearing is legit, sure you can do grown up things like have sex or get drunk, but thats more to do with the freedom in Fable than showing things for "viewing pleasre" the sex scenes are just a black screen with some dialogue.

Lets see, you can behead people and even kick their heads which is more for humors sake than anything. The game is just overall great fun and sometimes I view the M rating as a misjudged conception because Fable carries a lighthearted attitude towards it's atmosphere where most games of today don't. It ain't your GTA, which is still the only game series my parents "prefer" I don't play.

And I still won't.
