Fable 3 :Review (spoilers)




Live the epic adventure of a revolutionary leader, 
Who will you become? The tyrant or the greatest leader to ever live?







Fable 3 the latest of the saga to come out it is being released on Xbox 360 and PC. Lion Head Studios have added extra bits and bobs to the third game.First of all they have introduced a new inventory system which is rather effective and is better then the the boring old menu scroll down you simply go into your dressing room, and your outfits will be hung up on mannequins and you simply waddle your self over to them and try them on making combinations all you like.      

One of the second biggest changes of them all is the fact that your weapon changes as you use them, so say you use brutal bloodthirsty combo's then blood will drip from your sword as too say "Don't mess with me I'm freaking bad ass " but if you kill your enemy's in a gentle way, if that's possible then your sword will be heroic like and shining.

 The good old you choose the decisions as if that idea had never been introduced to the saga.Lion Head have said you could take someone and tell them to pay your taxes or you will be thrown into the dungeon but i never felt that kind of power.When you become king i would like if you could tell your guards to bring a random person from a certain house(using your world map)to the throne room and be able to question them and arrest them at will, or give them a job or maybe even fire them that was the sort of power i was hoping for, but the decisions in the throne room seem to be fixed you cant do anything in the throne room when you complete the game so that was a lot of potential lost.
                                                                                
                                                                                                                                                      
                                                                                                      

The game sets place in the industrial revolution and the smoke and industrial technology is polluting the land of Albion it is your job to overthrow the tyrant king (your brother) after a series of events you find a horde of people outside the castle, and then follows your first decision the power over life and death.

You find yourself escaping the castle via bowerstone sewers with your trusty friend Jasper and your greatest ally Walter. You find two graves together and Walter points out the guild seal you touch it and you go to a place called road to rule you will meet a famous fable character who is the aunt of your father and the mother of your fathers father he-he.The more allies you gain the more you will be able to access further into road to rule.Then you find your fathers sanctuary, you use the world map inside the sanctuary to reach different destinations you will find it easier to get the allies you need to lead the revolution and battle Logan's men.

On a boat trip you crash into a sandy beach soon you find a cave,and discover the Darkness.After you escape the Crawler Walter is struggling and you have the choice to leave him or drag him with you slowly. After events in the sandy hell,you awake in Aurora.


When you get back from Aurora, Theresa tells you in 1 year the Darkness will come to Albion.


In one year they come as expected and there is a big fight scene,as you hack your way through the Darkness you find the big boss battle The Crawler.
                                   
The tragic death of Walter was expected but heart breaking overall i would say this is better then fable 2, but has not beaten Fable 1 yet.

Good fighting system 9/10

Creativity         10/10                                    

Decisions       9/10

Graphics        10/10

Voicing         10/10

Length          8/10

Story         9/10
 
Overall 9/10
