Fable III User Review

This game made me laugh plenty of times, but there really wasn't anything new about it.

The Bottom Line:
"Just plain fun"
Hey, haven't i played this before? No? That was every other RPG? Oh.

I'll still take it.

There may not be anything revolutionary about this game, but it was enjoyable and well put together. The slapstick and bathroom humor they put in this game continually made me chuckle, and the combat was easy and fun. There wasn't anything surprising about the plot, but the characters still stuck with me. They were underdeveloped, but I still found myself caring about them. The death of a couple main characters actually partially saddened me.

Graphically this game is average. There wasn't much pop-in for an open-world game, although loading times were somewhat annoying. It ran fairly smoothly and the animations were good. The definition in everyone's face lacked detail, but artistically this game was very well done.

Combat is where this game shines. I used melee weapons mostly, but if I'm getting shot at i would pull out my rifle or send an ice wave at my foe. If I found myself outnumbered and surrounded, magic always got me out of it.

And this brings my to the biggest drawback of Fable 3: This game was waaaaaaaaaaaay too easy. You never actually die, you just get penalized a few hero amulets when you get knocked down. All damage done to enemies is still there, and you don't have to go back to a checkpoint. I like feeling invincible, but not when it take all the challenge out of the game.

Still, I liked this game. It was funny, well made, and satisfied my need for a decent RPG and could just sit down and play.

  3. Fable 3 tries too hard to reinvent and innovate the formula from the two previous games. While good, it is lacking.

  4. Boros returns for one last time to Albion, but this time, he's wearing stupid gauntlets that let you use magic.
