Commentary
I talked about this in an earlier commentary, but my policy is always that these commentaries are optional reads, and this "magic at no real cost" dealie and the ability to just use magic over and over indefinitely is something I want everyone on the same page on.
Also, an excuse for Susan being sassy.
To briefly recap that commentary, however, Slow Time, charge up offensive magic, boom. Alternatively just keep slowing down time so enemies move like they're in jelly.

Hey Dan, you might want to rename this post. It should be Parable 09.

2019-09-20 17:27:40 +0000 UTCThat would be balanced, sure. But Fable games are anything but. I remember my first time playing a Fable game (it was Fable II): I ended up at this arena as part of the main story. I was a dex build ("Skill Hero") but I just wasn't strong enough to take on the enemies in the numbers they were being thrown at me. I ended up struggling through until there was a round full of Werewolves. I entered that round looking like Orlando Bloom(EDIT: 0 magic XP), and exited looking like I was holding the Power Infinity Stone. (as stated in a previous commentary, in the original game you developed "magic glowing tattoos" as your magical abilities increased). For the rest of the game I insisted on using my cosmic omnipotence only when guns just weren't cutting it that day.

2019-09-19 17:32:38 +0000 UTCThe best part is it's a real exploit from a real game. By far the most broken decision Lionhead made for Fable 2 was to remove the mana bar from the first game. :D

2019-09-19 08:47:14 +0000 UTCYeah, this is an exceptional design.
Daryl Sawyer
2019-09-18 23:54:23 +0000 UTCSee, this is why she should focus entirely on using and leveling magic, it's just the smart thing to do.

2019-09-18 22:46:28 +0000 UTCSince when does Susan need an excuse to be sassy? BTW, nice exploit.
WillowD
2019-09-18 22:19:44 +0000 UTCAnd the sass (or is it snark; I never was sure on the difference). Whatever it is, yeah.

2019-09-18 22:19:21 +0000 UTCIt's player's slowed down time (in those games)

2019-09-18 21:34:17 +0000 UTCAll of the above

2019-09-18 21:23:19 +0000 UTCThe wavy hair? The casual confidence? The diminishing clothing? The well-toned muscles?

2019-09-18 21:20:33 +0000 UTCPanel 3 is a good panel. For at least two good reasons.

2019-09-18 21:12:55 +0000 UTCso, aside from the increased bust that came with her magic leveling up (I'm a simple woman. I like boobs. sue me. >.>), I'm not sure what exactly it is, but I find Susan extra attractive in this storyline.

2019-09-18 20:45:53 +0000 UTCIt's called "gaming the system".

2019-09-18 20:24:20 +0000 UTCumm, actually, narrator, iceballs are cool.
Otter Annason
2019-09-18 20:20:14 +0000 UTCI'm guessing you refer to how, while the rock, paper, and scissors are supposed to be equally good choices overall, a rock wrapped in paper wouldn't be nearly as "defeated" as crushed scissors or cut paper in reality.
Stephen Gilberg
2019-09-18 20:10:13 +0000 UTCI'd think that ideally, charge time would be world time and not the player's slowed-down time. But I'm not familiar with the game(s) in question.

2019-09-18 20:04:06 +0000 UTCSusan's expression in the last panel...I like it!
