The third installment of the Fable franchise, in my opinion, ends up being the best. Graphically it is superior to the two previous games but also story. You are the displaced prince trying to bring down your brother the king, who is a tyrant to the people. You go about the land recruiting different factions to help in your cause. During this time you are also trying to win over the people. You do this directly by flirting and chatting with the locals and also indirectly by how much you charge from goods and services as well as rents from houses and businesses you own. I myself bought up all the property in one city and threw up all the rents and prices. Everyone in the town hated me. This is sort of contradictory because you are working so hard to get rid of your brother who is a tyrant but you yourself could be even worse.
Game play could be harder. It is so easy to beat p on opponents, even when the adds are 15 to 1 (and they usually are). This is the biggest complaint of the game. All i have to do is use my spells on everyone and the game is cake. You are almost exclusively playing this game for story alone, which isnt necessarily a bad thing when its this good.
Overall a very good game that just misses being great. Definitely worth it.
