Not to derail this thread but I found Skyrim similarly overrated. It wasn't even an RPG really. Fable's closer to an RPG and while it's not as open-worldish, it's quite fun to play and unique in its own right.
Play Skyrim and then try to play Fable. Hate it or love it, Skyrim is an open world rpg. In Skyrim the main quest is optional, the game is not on a rail. I once spent six hours just exploring. Unlike the lionhead developers, Skyrim supports a mouse in inventory and main menu....while still supporting mods, the fable developers found that to be an impossible feat.
Then, once you find out that the modding community had to write a workable inventory interface for Skyrim (SkyUI), because Bethesda is too incompetent to fix their own games, you'll end up downloading a ton of mods that make Skyrim the game that Bethesda wishes they could really write.
All Bethesda games have notoriously short Main Stories, it's open world because if you follow the main story in a Bethesda game, you'll finish it around 15-20 minutes
I played Skyrim at launch, for 8 hours straight. I have seen this mod http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/3863/?. I have never used it, and my game plays just fine (arrow in the knee aside.) I know about Skyrims short comings and have complained about them, but let's get real, fable is to skyrim as whip cream is to a pile of turd(fyi Fable: A is the turd). You can compare Skyrim to far cry 2 and 3, Fallout 3 and new Vegas. I own Fable anniversary, and it's a piece of crap
