This Is My Review On Fable III. 9.5 out of 10
by FableIII_Fan on Comments
Fable III is one of those games that you will remember for a long, long, long time. First I will start with the story and follow my way down to the gameplay. When you first start out as a prince or princess (I chose prince) and you wake up to find your companion (your dog) in the bed with you. And the first face you see is Jasper's, your trusty butler. You then walk out of the castle and find your "best friend" he or she tells you that the king (your brother) has killed someone in the factory for standing up for child labor. You go with your best friend into the castle and you are then faced with a hard decision. I'm not going to say because I want you to find out yourselves. Once you make the decision your prince or princess is angry about what your brother has done. You meet with a guy named Sir Walter Beck and he helps you along with Jasper to start a revolution or you can call it an up rising against your brother (the king). Once you begin your journey to gather all of these important people to start an uprising, you don't want to stop. The gameplay is fairly simple, but keeps you involved. You press "X" to do your melee attack, "B" to do your magic and "Y" to use your firearm. Magic is my favorite since its the strongest, you can get certain types of magic by going to the Road to Rule. A place where you upgrade for your weapons, jobs, magic, and more. I like the transition that Lionhead did; they went from going to your menu by pressing the start button to the sanctuary. That's probably my favorite part about this game is the sanctuary. In the sanctuary there is a map where you can have a birds eye view of Albion. You can fast travel to place to place to place. Although I like walking. You earn guild seals and you use them to upgrade at the Road to Rule. My favorite part about this game is there is amazing voice acting, side quests, and earning money. In Fable III you can buy and rent out or move into a place so you get the money from the people renting it. You can have a wife/husband and have a family. And then there is an upgrade in The Road to Rule that you can buy taverns, furniture stores, armory places, tailors, and gift shops. Doing this is the best way to make money. The fighting system is great, I like the way your character moves. There are ton of great fighting moves in the game. In Fable III there is a lot to explore to find treasure, dig spots and kill gnomes. Yes I said gnomes; there is a side quest where gnomes are alive and scattered all over Albion. And you have to find and kill them. Little things like that are what make the game, and the customization. That's another thing about this game I love, you can customize a lot in this game. You can go to tailors and buy new hair, facial hair, and makeup. You can change the hair and the cloths with the dyes you get in the Road to Role. You can easily burn a lot of hours on Fable III, from doing the storyline to hunting gnomes and treasure. You build an amazing relationship with your dog. After getting all of the people to start an uprising, you make promises on the way. Promises like you will re-open this academy for this person. Once you over run the King and you become King or Queen, a whole new game starts. This is where you decide you want to be good or bad. (You still make choices before you become king but now you make more important choices). This is where the hard part begins. Being King or Queen feels amazing, it really feels like you are king. One of the big problems I have with Fable is the glitches, one minute I'm fighting a gang of bandits, the next minute I'm glitching in a tree. And another thing is that the glowing trail disappears on me and I don't know where I'm going. The graphics are pretty good, especially the surroundings. But the people still kinda look the same graphics as the previous game. The best parts of the game easily over runs the problems. One of the awesome things about this game is that your sword or hammer goes with who you are. There is over 150,000 swords in the game, not to buy but whoever you decide in Fable the sword reflects who you are. I love the whole concept. The music is amazing also, sometimes scenes come up and the music in the background is playing perfectly. So if you are a fan of rpg's meets Zelda meets Fable, this is for you. If you are a loser, sadly this game is not for you.
