I recently finished the main storyline for Fable 2, and I loved it. I've been considering buying Fable 3, but I've heard a lot of bad reviews, so I'm not sure. For those who have played Fable 3, what do you guys think? :/

Compared to the first and second one, it is shit imo. I beat the main storyline and never played it again..I was kind of confused about the character customization in that one too compared to the second one, and I never really bothered to go deeper into it. Try it out and see if you like it

It felt like you didn't get much freedom like in Fable II until after you beat the game.

There's a reason it's worth a paltry 6 dollars used.

The story is too quick. There is no real gain towards buying weapons, because they implemented allowing your weapons to grow. It's cool on paper, but it defeats the idea of variety. They reduced the amount of spells you can use (AGAIN). The DLC is "extra dog breeds".

They have Halo Health. No more health bars. Come to think of it, there's no mana bar either. No restrictions! Which means your game will be painfully easy. What happens if you die? Nothing! Except if you count having a scar. You just get right back up and fight again.

Kinda, it's just not as good as the other games in the series.

I had fun playing it with a friend, but there's little reason to keep going after the main story. All the constant bugs and glitches get quite annoying too.

well if you never heard the hype that damn peter claimed (i was new to fable and peter at the time) than its an okay game especially for the price you could get it, my biggest gripe with the game is i never felt like a king which was the whole point of the game. also it has the least amount of customization from the others.

the way i look at fable is that they are poorly made games that can be enjoyed if not taken seriously

so if you are interested and you can find it for real cheap then buy it

also this game will make you hate slow motion

It's the only fable I've played, and I liked it.
