  • Fable III is an OK game, the kind you play if you get it for free from a friend or download from a Torrent. I give it 5.5 out of 10.

    Most of my problems with the game from the lack of depth and complexity. It almost feels like an Action-Adventure-RPG game that was custom tailored for broader girl appeal. It's also not very challenging.

  • IvI've never played the first two fables, but I really like fable 3. Just what does the key at the top of the gold mound in the sanctuary do?

  • I personally think Fable I was the best, it had a better gameplay, there were way more spells for will, and Fable I actually had real proper armour rating, like plate, chainmail etc. Fable II had cloth and stuff. I dunno prob others might think otherwise, Fable III was just bad, im sorry, but it was different for sure

  • i wish they would make a prequel with the old kingdom.

  • 3:44 That's funny, IGN did a homosexual relationship as well, except they had lesbians.

  • Terisa or whatever: some call it, the age of apression (SKYRIM SONG)

  • isnt this kinda everything that zeitgeist stands against

  • @fuzzmanxs it means that he has no life as in he does one thing and he sticks to dat thing oo someone help me >.<

  • блин,качается долго

  • Biggest dissapointment ever, i got it yesterday and it completely destroyed every good aspect of fable, and not having a menu is even more annoying, im getting a refund

  • rlly creeped me out the first time i played through it....and has anyone considered that it's 50 DAM YRS so the voice actors WOULD be the same voices as in fable 2 heck the warrior general is from 2 he was with him at the final parts theresa's still there and a few others i recognized. only new characters is that resistance leader the mayor of brightwall ur brother and a few other the rest r from fable 2 so it makes sense chronologically

  • i guess he left out the brightwall tower quests....(book collecting, helping out in the dungeon area, etc.) those r pretty difficult to accomplish and require u to explore the world i've had a hell of a time collecting them on different saves bc they're always in a different area sometimes. overall tho i give it a 8.5 out of 10 it's a good game and all and spell weaving is pretty neat (who doesn't dream of casting lightening swords lol) but as said the game lags sometimes but the shadows part

  • So this is cool but I havnt realy seem much of this game yet it was recomended to me just now by my sisters friend but even now with out alot of reserch of it 3/5 stars let's see if I can get it to 5/5 thnx this video helped me

  • cool video

  • Fable 2 sucks and 3 seems to be even worse

  • @jackinator, Same, All games in the fable series are actually really well made, I enjoyed all the previous 2 fable games but haven't got to buying the Fable III, I hope I can get it soon.

  • Idk why everyone hates this game so much. I played the original fable, loved it, haven't played fable 2 yet though. But I found fable 3 really enjoyable. The combat was streamlined and very fun, the decisions you made actually had a lasting impact on the world around you, and the twist two thirds of the way through the game was really unexpected and awesome. Also, that thing that becomes your enemy late game (forget the name) was pretty creepy and helped to change up the atmosphere a bit. Sure,

  • I'm thinking about buying a 360, and this game is part of the bundle, maybe I'll just sell it if I don't enjoy it. Never tried the fable franchise yet.

  • Oh this game was pathetic shit.

  • still like Fable TLC Better than Fable 2 & 3 :)

  • "I thought Fable 2 was great!"

    Your opinions are now absolutely worthless.

  • no wonder they bundled it with the xbox 360

  • These seem to get worse with each game

  • I used to play this shitty game...until i took a skyrim too my xbox

  • @IAMSAM1234567890 not funny

  • @IAMSAM1234567890 That was so funny I forgot to laugh -_-

  • I want to mention a fault on the review.. If you want a good completion you do need to purchase every house and business in the kingdom, you need it like hell!

  • it was alright. I played it for a few weeks. and got tired of it. very easy to complete. not a very big open world. played it a second time, in order to raise loads of cash for the battle.

    it's not shit. I really enjoyed playing it. But it's not what I was expecting. the graphics are very good. But, once the game is over, it's no fun to play. and it's not a very long game.

    the kids and marriage feature is boring. once you try it. the novelty wears off.

    fable 2, was better. imo.

  • i had fun playing it

  • I was a huge fan of Fable and the lost chapters. I remember how awesome the game was. However I also love the 3rd game. Sadly enought the style and idea was not the same as fable how I remember it. I miss the hobbs and the fairies/wisps and the sillyness. They kept some things the same, but all by and by as a stand alone game it is good and loads of fun.

  • Don't buy this game. Avoid It like the plaque.

  • i had never played fable 1 or 2 when i rented this game, so i wasnt biased when i quickly decided this game is complete and utter shit. this is probably the biggest disappointment I have ever had with a game. i played fable 2 at a friends house after the fact, and it was much better.

  • this is the worst fucking game

  • It's good to see that amour is back, but they need to get back to the old fable. They need to get back to the brutality and turn back the clock, I hate the gun option. they shouldn't have changed the game much from the original.

  • this game gets pretty gay

  • mannn you nag to much and find too many things annoying farynuff if you dont like the game but no need to go that deep on allll those problems and i think it deserves more than just a "pass"

  • Im buying this instead of NFS hot pursuit :P

  • This game is horrible. If you buy it I promise you won't play it for more then a week. You'll either return it or just let it collect dust. They bundled this piece of shit game with the new 360 and I know a lot of poeple who just took it back two days later. Sorry but this game sucks. Fable 1 was awesome though and Fable 2 was ok

  • why do white boys enjoy gay weddings???????? damn queers

  • @Canadiankiller41 scared of gays huh?

  • i like how people say this game sucks but they never give legit reasons for it

    if you dnt like this game fair enugh

    but just going "this game sucks beacuse its not fable 1" isnt a reason to hate the game

  • @darkshadowssonic I don't like it because it IS Fable 1. It feels like Lionhead just waters down the original formula and calls it a sequel. But, that's just my opinion.

  • This game sucks lol

  • ok i agree with MakaFlakaFlame

  • i acually loved fable 3. amazing story. you have the best reviews on youtube. keep it up buddy.

  • I 'm not a gamer, but my parents bought me an Xbox for Christmas, and Fable III came with it. So I didn't know how to critique this game, since it's my first experience with an RPG, I have nothing to compare it to. But even I could tell off the bat that I was bored. It didn't get interesting until I actually got to get involved in combat. And since money is easy to find like you said, I haven't even bothered exploring owning properties. Maybe I'll stop playing this and play Fable II first.

  • This game sucks

  • @Crazyaisandude I just drunk a bit of broth from chicken noodle soup, it felt warm going down my throat.

  • The game....it's okay I guess. Honestly, I find it too damn easy, and that makes it pretty boring. One of the reasons Dark Souls is such a hit is because of how incredibly challenging yet rewarding it is. Fable 3 has almost no challenge to it. The fights hold almost no risk, money is practically useless, and the graphics are less than satisfying. I suppose some people might enjoy it, but I got bored after the first day of playing.

  • I quite actually enjoyed Fable 3! It makes it easy to pick up on the game if you are now new to the whole Fable trilogy. I am a person who likes to wonder through the game and finish all of the quest before finishing the whole story line. Either way I had fun and dont mind that they made it so easy!

  • Just wanted to say your reviews are the best on the net!thanks so much.

  • I do agree with the fact with combat, it took me less then a day to finish the game. I did enjoy the humor and the choices you could make it did add variety. The humor was great and I did get attached toe characters. I also had issues with the trail though and the graphics were not their best. It could have been done better, but I still liked it all. My main complaint is that it went to fast.

  • Though lionhead studios has the greatest sense of humor

  • Fable III was designed for the wrong age group they have sex in it, but they put 6 year old graphics and story depth as compared to fable II which had a less cartoon look. Fable II was a letdown in my opinion.

  • WORST GAME EVER CREATED

  • well personally i really enjoyed this game and it got me a little hooked :)

    I prefer this one rather than the 2nd one tbh (MY OPINION) :)

    love all fable games and i thoroughly enjoyed playing this one

  • they wanted me to watch a 49 second ad before I watched this 10 min ad. that is disgusting. I skipped the first one. I'll give the second one a chance.

  • Personaly,I enjoyed Fable 3.Nowhere near as much as I LOVED Fable 2 but still,it was fun to play and the responsibilities I was suddenly forced to take were amazingly emphasizing the meaning of the world Fable."You can make promises but that doesn't mean you can fullfill them.".As for the gameplay,it was buggy and straightforward for most parts and the customization,if this even counts as customization,was not as good as I expected.I prefered augments to the shitty mini-quests of the weapons.

  • less of a review more of a long winded explanation

  • I just got it and the story is fun in the begining but its not as fun as 1 or 2.

  • should i get fable 3 because i tried the demo, and i really like it but i heard that after you "take over" and unite all the places the game seems quick and boring. also type glitchy...

  • fable 3 is absolutely terrible, couldn't continue playing it

  • glad I didn't get this off stem for 12 bucks

  • i loved this game

  • he izz fukin lame GET A FUKIN LIFE ... rlly u took 13 fukin hours to complete this game ... get a fukin life

  • @cocacola43310 ??? how does that mean he has no life??

  • i was lookin forward to gettin fable 3 ..... but after watching this i feel like shit!

  • @MrSQUIRTY101 Same here, just got payed and was going to buy it while it was 75% off... but most likely not now.

  • gonna get this game for crismas and i dident stop playing fable 2 in 2-4 mounths after i got it, so is it good to get fable 3 for crismas?

  • 12$ ON STEAM!!! GOGOGOGOGO!!

  • @Neptune1231 saw that lol, exact reason im looking up reviews now :P

  • I played a cp game when i was little with the " follow the sparkling stuff" concept in it. Ive Also played this game and I don't like it. #Juhmehoppinion

  • i love fable III its has a nice story and you can make your own desiscions very well

  • god this game is so under-rated it's one of my favourite games of all time and i will never forget how much fun i had with this game. i want fable 4 news!

  • how do you fart on people? i did it once in the mercenary camp, but i want to be able to do it to everyone.

  • so.... i got it for free. thank goodness

  • Haha! He pooted on his head:D

  • >.> I liked how they actually gave us a unique npc that the person could marry if played out right...

    Hey, it was the evil option but I don't give much a sh-- when the rest of the other npcs is all cardboard.

    But already my issue is on how short this game is.. D:

    Bioware's Dragon Age 2 was also rushed yet I got 60 hours of gameplay out of it... and then some with different endings and playing mage!

    If... I'm not mistaken, Fable 3 had more time then DA2 did.. so.. Y U SO SHORT FABLE 3?!

  • The only thing I like about Fable 3 was spell weaving and the changing weapons. Everything else was crap compared to the second one. Fable 2: Hammers, cutlasses, longswords, axes, cleavers, katanas, maces, 3 types of rifles and pistols, and 4 types of crossbows, with an amazing targeting system. Fable 3: Hammers, swords, rifles, pistols. What the fuck? How does taking away weapons in a sequel make sense? Also, I hated how short Fable 3 was, with little to do after the game ended.

  • Fable 3 was shit, I was shocked I only got knocked out once. And you don't even die. Its like playing Sonic, you just lose some coins and go play to gameplay.

  • This game sucks, whenever I pick up a chest, or dig nothing, it goes right back to normal fuck this game

  • only thing i dont like in fable 2 and fable 3 is that IT JUMP FUCKING TOO FAR!!!!

    Fable 2- JUMP 500 YEAR AHEAD OF FABLE TLC?!

    FABLE 3 - JUMP ANOTHER 50 YEAR?!

    still love fable TLC XD out of all of the fable series

  • @MasterLazyXD

    Word i liked the first game a lot. Never tried 3... hesitant to.

  • very crappy game, its short, no custom anything other then the look of ur clothes, story is ok, also no menus makes the game worse not better, 4/10 if you want a well played rpg stick with bethesda.

  • @svsb012782 learn to spell dumb cunt

  • yeah, it could have been a lot better

    

  • 10 out of 10 from me. my favourite game of all time. i love lionhead.

  • I wish Fable was good, someone needs to hand the games off to someone else and they need to take all three of them (Fable: The Lost Chapters, Fable II and Fable III) and make them into one massive game the way it was suppose to be. God, they add some awesome new features to fix what was bad in the last but take what was good in the last and break it.

  • this review is very accurate ...the games per all sux ...big time ...except for graphics

    but compared to any (even low rated )RPGs, it totally blows

    i never posted this words before but i guess i had to do it eventually

    this game is FAKE AND GAY

  • The board game quest seems like a rip off of a psychonauts level.

  • "To be blunt, fable 3 was rushed and is unfinished and I'd honestly give this game a pass"

    FUCK YOU

  • Comment removed

  • i just read this review after playing fable 2, really liked fable 2, kinda disappointed to hear fable 3 is a let down, was lookin forward to buying it

  • Comment removed

  • iv beaton all fable games countles times.the worst was fable 2.there was not enough choises to make you good or evil.the best was fable 3.there were tons of choices, pimp ass wepons ,and frekin awsome moments, chericters, and tons of saspensful moments.

  • @svsb012782 You choose Fable 3 over Fable TLC. I don't know what to say.

  • you really just don't like the fable series very much lol.

  • I hate reviews like this where all they do is talk shit about the game, it all depends on what a person is into, geez

  • @MakaFlakaFlame Exactly, reviews are subjective.

  • @ZeitgeistReview the hardest thing is saving the highest amount of albions people without becoming a tyrant

  • @MakaFlakaFlame you sort of just completely contradicted yourself there as you said you didn't like how the guy talked shit about the game, but then you start talking about how it's personal preference whether you like it or not, it was this reviewers personal preference that he did not like the game

  • @havokewf90 Yea, thats why I dont like reveiws like that...

  • @MakaFlakaFlame True enough all poeple have a right of an opinion no matter what a reviewer or other person says/thinks. For me Fable 3 is an even greater dissapointment then Fable 2 and thats a damn accomplishment. At least it had a slightly less crappy main vilain than F2 but Jack is still king. So much potential wasted. Can't wait for Fable: Journey being ever worse ^_^

  • @NINJAinTIGHTS Yea, I dont realy have anything bad to say about Fable 2 or 3, I like them both, the co-op was so much cooler on number 3, twas sweet

  • @MakaFlakaFlame Oh yeah one way that Fable 3 is a lot better than the second game is the co-op. It was laughably bad and tacked on in Fable 2 .

  • @NINJAinTIGHTS Ha yea, Its like it almost shuldnt of been a feature in Fable 2, but it is still fun to just fuck around with if your not bein serious

  • @MakaFlakaFlame Yeah I remember reading Co-op was added in Fable 2 really late in development. So it was kinda like Halo: Combat Evolved's multiplayer. Only it sucked XD

  • @NINJAinTIGHTS ha true true

  • i got this with my new xbox slim 250 gb but what the H*LL is this game??

  • @VanyaKT same with me

  • MELEE, not "meleey" XD

  • @LordSeferoth hahahahahaha (trolls). have you read anything about it? best game of the year is what im hearing. but whatever, i guess u can be part of the minority that wont enjoy it

  • just play skyrim, its out in 4 days o_o

  • @MrSandman9151

    Skyrim will suck more then Fable 3.

  • i hate that there are very few weapon types, there is no expression wheel, and its impossible to just be a cold-blooded killer. why would you want to kill a bunch of villagers when you are their leader? thats stupid, in fable 2 you had no responsibility for them, it was fun to be evil

  • I wish Lionhead Studios would watch this review and take everything said 100% into consideration before making Fable 4. I kept wondering if they'd been bought by Disney, it was so straight forward, easy and innocent. Follow the glowing trail for a couple of hours and you're there!

  • I don't know if I misunderstood something, but I clearly recall you being asked to raise money to be able to take the "good" route in this game (which is stupid to begin with), but then after I was almost there, having rented out and sold buildings, worked my ass off on the lute, the game ended happily anyway and it was all for nothing.. Also, the moral dilemmas was moronic, like "do you want to kill everyone, yes or no? Want to starve all the kids, pollute the river, yes or no? Uhhh.. No?

  • @kicksilvermetal Uhh, yes it does. I have Windows 7, and I can play it with no problems.

  • This is the shittiest game I've played in a long time.

    TLC was the best

  • did you ever worked for gamespot? you look familiar..

  • What's this guys name???? I don't like it when reviewers don't have their names on the review. How am I supposed to properly quote who said some of the things this guy said???? That is lik an author not putting the name on his book. Additionally I liked Fable II the most. Fable III was unfortnatly a huge disapointment.

  • @davisjeans Considering I'm the only reviewer and this is my YouTube channel, you would probably say Zeitgeist. Or if you looked at my channel page you'd see my name is Daniel.

  • @ZeitgeistReview I was just going to ask you. Am i able to customise my character? Not just his weapons but am I able to Customise my face and create my characters name?

  • @ZeitgeistReview zeitfeist, in your fable 2 review u said that the story was weak

  • i loved the game, but it suffered many glitches... for me anyway

  • @xarlygen stfu faggot

  • Fable 3 did disappoint me, however I'm not going to say it sucks. I've found out over the years that each fable game has had its own unique traits. Fable 3 was actually really fun to me, but the only downside is that it felt like I was playing more of a linear action game then an RPG game.

  • good game but not worth $109

    it just should have been an addon to fable 2

  • so if you cant pause how the hell do you get to the main menu?

  • FABLE 3 FUcking suuckss!!!! IT Fucking Sucks. How fucking cool i get to play fable 3 glub glub !. I loved fable tlc . How everyone cant see how shity this game is

    is insane to me??

  • Because you sucks...Fable has a 9.5/10...sucks?...of course of course...PS3 sucks.

  • Inaccurate. It's NOT that easy to make money fast unless you're playing evil. Playing evil in this game hands everything to you. It's practically cheating. Try playing a good character THEN review it. It requires so much money (millions) yet you can't own money from properties while not playing anymore meaning you'd have to invest HOURS of doing random crap just to get through the end-game! They did a few things right and everything else wrong. Fable 3 was such a let down.

  • i just played fable 3, and it was a great experience, i really enjoyed the game.

    but, the lost chaprter was lionhead's masterpiece!

  • Fable 3 mission 1

  • i have to say fable 2 is my favorite and fable 3 disappointed me!!!

  • so cool

  • I actually enjoyed this. I dont like having to grind for hours to do shit. So i beat this game in 12hrs.

  • @fraudster111 And paying 80 dollars for 12 hours of gameplay is enjoyable?

  • @SonOfTheNorthe What about paying 0dollars for 12hrs of gameplay?

  • i enjoy your reviews :D

  • They were all amazing :P

  • I have to admit, I haven't gotten very far, but so far I like it. I picked the princess character and am going the good route, but my concern is about the storyline. I enjoyed Fable 2 a lot more than Fable 1, but sometimes I got so sidetracked with sidequests that I'd forget the main story and when I did the main story it seemed painfully short. I'm more hoping Fable 3 doesn't do that.

  • Great Review,

    One of My favorite aspects was the industrialization of Albion. I definitely agree that the dumbing down on many things, such as weapons and leveling, was a bad move. However I still enjoyed this game, almost as much as Fable 2.

  • At this rate, Fable 4 and 5'll have barely any magic and more of a modern combat feel of a game, sigh

  • @Terdmissle9 i lik

    but i wish they go back the the time of heroes , gun was kind of a big push, not a bad push but i prefer old style

    i want sword and bow , i want to go back to the time even before fable 2, i dont want factory i want great landscape with rivers and just plain grass and trees

    i dont mind seeing castle, but i prefer to see little camps, the beginning of fable 2 was very beautiful i remember the landscape was stunning and the camp have a pleasure feeling 2 b arounnd

  • @VansLegacy i know what you mean, Fable 1 back then was an incredible RPG, besides the fact that it was easy to 'cheat'. The STORY and basic leveling system and characters is what made it great. The landscape was definitely a wonder as well. Fable 2 was okay, the story was lackluster, but other than that... Fable 3, on the other hand, has no immersion imo. I dont feel like my character is a hero, but just a citizen out to do random quests, there's also a linear leveling system now, sigh

  • @Terdmissle9 ye man

    fable 3 would have been a great game if ther is more choices, i want to actually walk to the guard leader and tell them to mean to citizen or something like that

    u no? i want more of realistic choices and choices that i want to, it does not have to involve helping the kingdom or destroying it, i want fun choices that changes the environment of the game

  • @Terdmissle9 Look at Fable: The Journey, and be prepared for immediate disappointment.

  • I love all the Fable's. I Honestly thought Fable 2 was the best. I liked almost everything about This game EXCEPT for : How short it was. How easy it was to kill enemies. and the ending. The ending wasn't very good. Other than that I liked it all.

  • Only a couple hours, I enjoyed fable 2 but couldn't replay it . Is it the same in fable 3? Oh and it's less then then the cost of a cod blops map pack which is stupid

  • i liked the

    story line, decision making, cool killing moves, characters scripts/voices and i didn't mind the mythical path and menu

    i disliked

    the shit maps, repeatedly pressing one button to kill, how the fights weren't challenging, how money was pointless till the end where you have to build a business empire which takes ages and is tedious, the dog that can't find anything (unless nothing is there!) and i also didn't see the point in making a family.

  • on steam for 17 bucks w/ all dlc. Is it worth getting? i love good PC rpg's such as Fallout 1, Witcher, and Dragon Age origins.

  • @unrealxXx i dont know i brought the game its installing now

  • @Abi32854716486 everyone in the world is getting it for free at any torrnet site ever made whats your point?

  • they need more HOT SEX WITH STRAIGHT MEN

  • I totally agree. Fable 2 was entirley better as far as quests, weapons, customization, gameplay and story. This was too short, rushed, and pretty straight forward. It felt completly irrelevent to the first 2 fables.

  • I beat this game fairly quick.. like 10-15 hours. i never tried the other fables so im going to assume this one was the best . it was fun playing but walking around soooo much got annoying fast.

  • @TeamSketchFR This was the worst yet. Fable TLC was hands down the best. Fable 2 was pretty fun but this was a utter disappointment compared to those

  • I don't know yet but I i,m getting it soon, so I'll know soon.

    

  • people never understood what fable 3 was trying to achive people will never be happy no matter how good a fable game is unless its fable 1 people will bitch and cry about it fable 3 was a huge improvement on fable 2 it was less buggy the combat flowed better it had a better storyline and i actully cared about the charecters

  • fable tlc still pwns them all

  • @MforceArts and Fable 1...:D

  • @MforceArts agreed

  • @MforceArts Easily the best game

  • FABLE IS THE NEW SONIC, A GOOD GAME FOLLOWED BY A WHOLE BUNCH OF DISAPPOINTING GAMES. I'll still buy them all hoping for another Fable 1 though :P

  • Loved the new stuff, liked the story line, fucking hated the stupid decisions. Fucking hated the ending. Fucking hated the shortness. They put all of their effort into the beginning, then were just like, "fuck it." And ended it the stupidest way possible.

  • hey , this is an review ... not a "spoilerview"
