My favourite one
I really liked fable 3!!! I started on fable 2 and its my favorite but I remember really loving this game
Also hey! : D I was 3 when it was 2004! Damn. Time… Sure does fly.
Fable 3 holds a special place in my heart because I and my brother would play co-op.
Then we both enjoyed the first two Fables seperately.
Okay but to be fair
In royal families you do need to be ready to commit recigide at a drop of a hat. Thats just how it be!
1 and 2 are amazing.
3 was meh.
I'll be honest, I've only played the first one and really enjoyed it. I was steered away from the second and third though, so I always love watching retrospectives. I am incredibly excited for the new one coming out! This will make my Saturday morning divine!!!
I remember this game fondly from my childhood but yeah, in hindsight it really couldn’t hold water compared to Fable II
… ya know I just realised this game was why my brother got into economy. Because he loved buying property.
Like. All of it. Heck the main quest, that was his life work in that moment.
Meanwhile I was a master of pies. And bartending. Never got into the groove of the music though.
I also wanted the bone swords so I let the enemies pummel me into the ground just for that sweet sweet aesthetic
Honestly it's amazing they got the cast that they did for this game
Fable II is peak nostalgia for me and I spent so many hours on that game, immersing myself in that world and it’s quaint, charming atmosphere. I loved the everything about it. It wasn’t the best game ever made by far but it was certainly one of the most appealing ones that knew how to draw you in.
So I remember being excited for Fable III, and then being disappointed with the actual game. Sadly there’s just no denying that so much of the gameplay was an obvious downgrade from 2, and 1, in a lot of ways.
So while Fable III was an inferior sequel, and I wouldn’t play it for fun now, if I’m ever doing a Fable marathon, I’m absolutely playing through it because it still manages to capture the aesthetic of the world of Fable even if it falls short of being as complete a gaming experience as it’s predecessors.
Great watch as always 👊🏿.
I think it's definitely in the bucket of those games where it's fondly remembered coz of the era and it's probably the Fable game that got most people into the series. So i definitely think you aren't alone in being more attached to this entry than the others despite the others being held in maybe slightly higher regard.
Fable 3 feels like a watered down Fable 2.
Its x box exclusive?
I think Fable 3’s biggest failing is the absolute letdown that is the idea of being the King after Logan’s fall because the actual “You get to be King!” mechanic was an absolute joke.
If you had been in Logan’s shoes and needed to keep the army happy cos you need to be ready for the invasion, while also balancing the needs of your kingdom as well, you would have understood the stress he was under as he tried to navigate those difficult choices. But you never really get that impression as the actual monarch because you can raise the 8.5 million through being a landlord, something which is ridiculously easy compared to Fable 2. It was hard to reach 1 million in 2 and was a fairly well paced system that made you feel like you’d earnt your way but in 3, you have more money than you know what to do with if you manage it properly, so there’s no incentive to make hard choices when the game makes it super convenient to have your cake and eat it too.
So you can pick all the benevolent options – and get the angel wings Theresa gives you instead of devil wings which is just silly lmao – and still have enough money to save everyone, so there’s no incentive to make the hard decisions for the good of the realm Logan felt compelled to make even if he didn’t want to do so.
He didn’t need to do anything he did which was genuinely tyrannical, so his character feels weaker as a result when if you were presented with some of the same genuinely morally complex choices, you would find yourself saying “Now I understand Logan’s struggle.”
As it is, not so much.
It’s a useful summary of the whole game really; a great concept, very poor execution.
Biggest issue with this game was the map/fast travel system.
Cluldnt make it back to a city because there was no entrance, and fast travel always put me out of the city walls. All i managed to get to was a damn door that wanted some interaction between another person, im assuming npc. Dont care, i was trying to deliver a fucking letter.
Fable 2 is wht got me invested in fable series tbh i might have to play fable 1 soon
This is my first time seeing Fable 3. It looks a lot like Skyrim.
It is somewhat erotic ;_
I played the 3 games back to back some months ago, and number 1 and 2 despite being very different games were both still great. 3 was just so empty in comparison, the comedy was still quite fun, the graphics were a nice improvement but the game mechanics especially the combat just felt bare bones (every damn game has less boss fights), the lack of heroes made the world feel smaller and the story itself was underwhelming for what was promised.
It’s not a bad game… but it doesn’t hold to the legacy of the first two imo
I remember the first time i heard of fable. Game informer ad for it. First gsme i ever got hyped for in my life. 2 and 3 were disappointing in comparison to all that hype when i was like 8-9. Looking back i finally understood why original fallout fans dont like 3 (first fallout game) at all.
The shock I felt when realising that you are only 4 years older than I am was immense
One of the main reasons i got my first X-Box console was Fable.
Finally glad you realised, this game is an insult to the RPG genre.
I emjoyed all 3 games tbh, and i started on the first fable when it was released. That one will always hold a special place in my heart. One of my top 5 games of all time.
To be honest, it’s gonna be a masterpiece in comparison to what we get next.
Star Wars: ironic how that works.
It's weird..
I couldn't finish Fable 2 but completed Fable 3, albeit dreadfully and bankrupting the entire nation because, as you've stated, the game doesn't particularly tell you to ball till you fall.
That said, maybe I should play them again and not complete the stories until I'm OP Isekai protagonist with Scrooge McDuck money.
This was the only Fable game I ever played and it was some very strange stroke of luck I was able to play it. We didn't have a lot of spare money but I found the Fable 3 demo or something on the xbox's store when I was in high school and had begged for the little bit of money to be able to get the full title. I was thrilled when he said yes and had an absolute blast playing it; was always so confused when people said it was the worst one lmao
Great vid! Like your commentary.
Funding the defense of an entire nation from darkness, one pie at a time
I could never put my finger on why I didn't care for this one
Fable 2 is one of my favorite games on the Xbox 360, I put so much time into that game between two characters
Quite enjoyed the original as well
But something about this one, I don't know if I even made it 10 hours into it before it just completely lost me
I actually loved fable 3 and its story. I replay it all the time. I love the music and a lot of the mechanics and weapons themes.
good memory's playing the first one as a kid, loved the pimp hat you got in the lost chapters and watching people fall down steers from my spew after drinking too many beers. 2nd one was all good, 3rd was ok/meh. keep up the good work 👍
I am old enough to remember Electronics Boutique.
This game had a lot of potential but Microsoft's leadership controlled too much of the creative aspects and prevented Lionhead from doing what they truly wanted with the series. In addition, Microsoft constricts Lionhead with unrealistic deadlines in order to get the game out on a near-yearly basis. I enjoyed this game but understand it has flaws. I think this game succeeded in what Microsoft wanted – to get newcomers to join the series and buy Xbox. However, it betrayed some die-hard and long-time fans.
I preordered this mess. Words cannot express my disappointment
I had fun with Fable 3 back in the day. But at the same time, the story was shit. And, the writing was tonally all over the place.
ALL the Fable games is worse than you remember.
The reboot is welcome.
Seeing the old XBox profile icon really threw me back in time.
