Sable did not hook me in right away, but over time I did come to enjoy it quite a bit. When the game's intro sequence concludes, I found myself frustrated with the lack of interesting things to discover in the world. However, I was stopping to turn over every stone, when Sable's world lends itself much more heavily to exploring each landmark location thoroughly and traveling in a straightforward fashion from place to place. Once I made this shift in mindset, I had a lot more fun playing the game.

It isn't a perfect experience, though. Personally I was not really into the art or animation style, although I can see the appeal. The game goes down another peg for me due to the technical issues. I understand that a small team is responsible for Sable, but the frequency I encountered performance issues or UI/menu bugs became annoying at a certain point.
