Sable

BORING AS HELL

A really gorgeous no-stress open world exploration game. It took me a couple hours to get used to the way that the game looks (it uses a heavy cel-shading filter, defaults to be locked at a low frame rate, and is generally kind of visually glitchy), but once I got out of the starting area it really hooked me. I'd played and enjoyed Caravan Sandwich last year, and everyone compared that to Sable, so I figured I'd better try it. Sable has no combat and no fail states, so it ride entirely on the strength of its exploration, world building, and look, and it's excellent in all these respects. The game has an illustrator-y look that is really striking- I don't know if I've ever played a game where every screenshot that I take ends up looking like it could be a page in a graphic novel. The use of color is extraordinary; each zone of the world has a different color scheme, and that will also change dramatically depending on the time of day. The world is interesting and surprising, and while it's not a difficult game in any way, the exploration is just undirected enough to give the player the feeling that they're doing something active rather than ticking off map markers.

I really enjoyed Sable and would recommend it: 8/10. Sable is like a Zelda BotW, without the battles. It's fun to just explore, complete missions, and work on getting a better bike. At 18 hours I 95%'ed it, skipping completing the grindy objectives - and letting my daughter explore for an hour or 2. Frustrations: Poorly optimized, even with a 4090_mobile I found framerates cut in half in the town. To help I ran the game locked to 60 fps and then used Lossless Scaling to boost to a targeted 120fps.

Loved this game so much! Beautiful visuals and music, so much to explore. Very peaceful and engaging

Sable más que un juego, fue un viaje para mi y me encantó. Si en algún momento te aburres, te invito a que lo dejes un tiempo y regreses cuando quieras. Entiendo que como no dispone de elementos de combate el juego es bastante lento, eres tu recorriendo todo el mapa yendo a donde quieras, descubriendo un poco del lore, ayudando a la gente, teniendo interesantes conversaciones, personalizando el aeromoto y tu vestimenta.

Nice change of pace Very warm and chill No combat just quests and exploration Discover a world that is not hostile with your hoverbike

Relaxing game with standout exploration.

Ich liebe die phantastisch künstlerische Grafik und den schwebenden Sound. Alle Gespräche, Aufgaben und Mechaniken waren so, dass ich erst etwas üben musste ohne je komplett überfordert zu sein. Es war eine magische und kontemplative Reise die ich schon wiederholt habe.

Très agréable à jouer pendant plusieurs heures grâce aux musiques et à la beauté des environnements. Cependant ces mêmes envrionnements sont parfois trop grands pour le peu de zones intéressantes qu'on peut y trouver. Pour un jeu fait par un petit studio, les quêtes sont nombreuses et sympa. Tout au long du voyage on rencontre de nombreux pnj qui ont pour une majorité une petite histoire intéressante à suivre mais, pour ceux que ce n'intéressent pas, le lore est facilement skippable. J'ai adoré jouer à ce jeu et obtenir tous les succès !
