Fable 3 boring?

I'm a big fan of the Fable series. I played the first Fable the first week it came out. Pre ordered the second one but held off of for the third one. My friend let me borrow Fable 3 and I was playing it for about two hours and was surprised to find myself bored with it. I put it down and came back a day later but couldn't get more than 20 minutes into it without resisting the urge to turn it off....It just feels like Fable 2.5. Things are slightly refined but I played Fable 2 , 6 times or so an it just feels like i'm starting over AGAIN. Does anyone one else feel this?

Well my girlfriend has been playing Fable 3 all day now so I've seen a bit of it and I would say that it's not needed to play Fable 2 before Fable 3. The series always takes place over a generation apart. The most they do is say "Well there used to be this great hero"sorta thing.

Fable 1 was awesome.

Fable 2 was ok.

Fable 3 was meh.

Good to know i'm not crazy.

OT, and I don't mean to thread hijack, but would you recommend playing Fable 2 before 3? I mean is it really necessary?w4rrior17

Yea, it was a giant meh fest for me

I tried to find stuff to do, heck I even beat it twice, but it felt boring and vapid

I wasn't bored at all. I liked Fable 2 more though,LustForSoul

I didn't find that at all. For me the last couple of hours of the game were the worst. I absolutely hated the ending, I thought that Fable 2's ending was anticlimatic but it was epic compared to Fable 3.

I wouldn't say it is boring, but to me it sure isn't as good as Fable 2.

I also really don't like the new emotion / interaction process. They should have kept the selection wheel format.

I actually liked it more than Fable 2. I wish the story was a little longer, but overall I liked how everything was more streamlined and didn't have unnecessary menus and stuff. The co-op system in Fable 3 is also a lot better.

One thing that I definitely wish they did improve though was the combat. Do SOMETHING to make it more fun/challenging.

[QUOTE="Phrilz"][QUOTE="Leo-Magic"] The first 5 hours was horrible, if you can survived the first 5 hours you will love it even more than Fable 2.Karnage108

After 60 hours in Fable 3 i am still not bored and still finding secrets

If you like a complex world to explore, then i dont see how Fable 3 can become boring, it is one of the best in that regard

I did like Fable 1 better though and the combat was very boring, in fact they should have done away with combat altogehter, it is meaningless

Fable 1 and Fable 3 are both far better than Fable 2 in every way

I found Fable 3 good until the bit where you become king. It just seemed like it built up and then just flopped. But yeah, some bits are pretty boring.
