Fable/TLC by a mile. 2 and 3 dont even com close.
literally just posted this minutes ago:P
Fable/TLC was pure awesome
Fable II, pretty good
Fable III, not so much.
The First was perfect, you could legitimately choose mage, archer, or warrior and they were pretty balanced. you had Mana that depleted as you used spells, and the Spell system was perfect, even had a health bar, none of that screen turns red crap. all the clas.ses were balanced enough. tons of customization. combat was great. you were not forced to use flourishes or other special means to kill a simple bandit. whereas in its successor, almost every enemy could block every one of your attacks, aside from Flourishes, which took forever to charge up, leaving you open for your enemies to slash away.
Second one, was alright, i like it a little better than the third. though i dont care for the modernization aspect of the game. No bows pissed me off. i hate the guns. they completely messed up the will system, to the point where it was almost impossible to be a pure mage without dieing, or should i say, getting knocked out. sword combat was meh. flourishes took too long to charge, leaving you open to enemy attacks. hardly a visible healthbar. saw it every once in a while.
Third one, worse than the second. still has a stupid will system, if you can even call it that. used gauntlets. not even possible to be a mage in this game. no real sense of leveling up and growing as a person in-game. annoying clunky combat. boss fight was bad. the whole treasury thing and being king, needs to be explained a bit more. like having enough money for troops and such.
The Fable series has gone downhill since the first game IMHO.
