Combined with the games generally excellent (if somewhat stereotypically English) voice acting, the audio in the game is superb overall.Ī major problem with the game is you are meant to be a prince, heir to the throne of an empire. The music also fits the bill here, with perfect melodies and scores playing when you would expect/want to hear them. Of course this is no bad thing, Fable II is a good looking game, and the improved vistas as you run around do immerse you in the world of Albion if you let them. Graphically the game is not a whole lot more impressive than it’s predecessor, the character models are a tad sharper, the vistas look better, other than that, same level of graphical prowess as Fable II. As mentioned though, it’s a nice addition, even if it is unnecessary. Now if you’re going to do away with menus in such a dramatic fashion, best to go all the way or keep the menus in place. There is a problem, however, and that is at certain points there needs to be menus, such as when you are inviting a friend to your game, or saving and loading or even selecting a quest. It’s clumsy sure, but there’s something good about teleporting there, then hearing “Good day, Sir” from Sir Lancelot. While this was annoying to begin with, I found myself really liking the system. That’s right, when you want to change your outfit or weapons, you press the start button and you’re whisked away to the Sanctuary, a place inhabited by none other than John Cleese who is on form as ever. Speaking of overhauls to systems, Fable III has no standard menus. This is a step backwards for Fable, I feel, as the previous systems gave you a distinct impression you were becoming more powerful the more quests you completed, whereas here you simply have to collect 60 Guild Seals to get the next bonus, it just feels empty, and while Lionhead are to be commended for trying something a little different, it isn’t a great experience. You’ll use these seals to open chests on the ‘Road to Rule’, a pathway littered with treasure chests, which contain all the levelling up bonuses e.g., different expressions and better skill with firearms. Gone are the days of collecting orbs for Strength, Skill and Will and dispensing them into the appropriate areas to increase their base value, now you collect ‘Guild Seals’ which you’ll earn from interacting with people, combat and completing quests. This touch system also helps in your quest to level up, but not in the traditional method. In Fable III the whole system is more personalised, letting you hold hands or hug an NPC, and while only being able to ‘talk’ to one NPC at a time can be tedious, it is more realistic than the previous games’ attempts at interaction with others. Before we were able to gather a crowd and fart at them, or show them our might by flexing our muscles. To begin with you’re shown one of the games new main attractions in the tutorial - touch. This takes away the pressure you should really feel at the games crunch time, and is certainly a missed opportunity. You’ll basically be given a good choice and a bad choice, so there’s never any trouble in decided the outcome of certain events you’re either playing as good, or evil. There are no grey areas, everything is black and white - pun fully intended. When you are in the position to do so, when you have to make choices, it’s as simple as it always was. The story sees you taking your fully voiced character (yes, I do like the fact there’s a voice there), and trying to overthrow your tyrannical brother, who is the current King of Albion. That’s right, no longer will you answer a life or death question with a thumbs up and a “Wayheeeeyy!”, Here you have a fully voiced male or female lead, which adds a touch of personality to your character. This could have the effect of leaving you somewhat withdrawn from your character, but another little touch that has been missing in other Fable titles, is your main character has a voice. Before we would always start as a child, use the childhood and teen years to develop out basic character then go all out as an adult in contrast, here we start out as a young adult, a prince/princess to be exact.

This entry in the series sees things take a radically different approach to the both the games opening, and it’s story-telling style. Can this third installment live up to his promises and does it improve on its predecessors? The sequel, Fable II also had this problem.
