[OFFICIAL] Fable 3 Details & Discussions


Recommended Posts

Yesterday i won this.

(Funny thing is i don't own a Xbox 360 :D)

Does anyone know what that USB Kinect wrist-thing is?

If i connect it to my pc it shows us up as a 2GB USB flash drive with some kinect-game folders in it but does it do something else once connected to a 360?

Seriously, the first one with The Lost Chapters is by far way better than Fable 2 & 3, seems each one is more disappointing than the previous one, gameplay and story wise. Will not pre-order anymore Fable unless I read some good reviews.

Chunky Fable III title update deployed

Lionhead has deployed a title update for Fable III on Xbox Live.

It fixes numerous problems. Butler Jasper won't abruptly shut his trap when you visit the Sanctuary, after all, the voice of John Cleese can't have come cheap - might as well hear it. Of course, John Cleese has been in a BioWare game before - can you remember which one?

This title update also hopes to prevent save game corruption as well as boosts general game performance and frame rate, which can be particularly choppy in same-screen co-op.

But not all hiccups have been remedied, and Lionhead asks that you please continue to be patient.

"While we make every effort to include as many upcoming changes in our patch notes as possible, please be aware that some changes are unintentionally omitted. Where possible the title update will be retroactive, meaning if you've already experienced the issue in your game it will now be resolved. This is not applicable to all solutions," the developer wrote.

Full fix-list below.

But first, Eurogamer plays 15 minutes of Fable III.

Major Fixes

John Cleese has been in a BioWare game before - can you remember which one

What is, Jade Empire?

Will fire this up tonight if I can finish the storyline on Mafia 2. I think I'm suffering from OverGame at the moment.

It's painful to admit we can't yet answer any questions on the PC version of Fable III... Hopefully soon we can spill the beans!

Can someone tell me what exactly stopping them from releasing ANY info about the PC version, after such long time since their delay announcement (that didn't had any info about the game either)?

Completed the game and am now in the process of doing the boring grinding to get the achievements I have missed (books, gnomes etc)

I probably wouldn't even bother but my gf loves the game and it keeps her quiet and I get some achievements while playing co-op.

Only ones I probably won't even attempt to get are the collecting all weapons and clothes.

Going to be released on Steam on launch too (May 17).

Citing the importance of giving customers as many choices as is found throughout the Fable franchise, Microsoft Game Studios and developer Lionhead have announced that the PC version of Fable 3 will be available on both the Games for Windows Live Marketplace and Steam at launch.

doesn't change the fact that gameplay got alot worse

F3 is so dumbeddown it sound like it is made for 5 year old kids!

No XP system

No health bar

magically teleport back to room

and No-mini map

seriously Lionhead?

  • No XP system
  • No health bar
  • magically teleport back to room
  • and No-mini map

In order:

  • Guild seals
  • Not a bar exactly, but a CoD style health level. It's just different.
  • It's the menu system. Is that also 'magical'?
  • There is a map, but I agree it's not a lot of use.

Having rented this game this time last year and enjoying it mainly for simplicity and the art style of the game Ive only now decided I will probably buy it discounted (feeling it did lack content based on reviews and friends), mainly posting and prompted because I just bought the Traitors Keep Quest Pack for 50% off (under 300 MS points) as part of the 10 years of Xbox anniversary sale.

Well seeing as I am the only one updating this thread: had to make a new character, skipped all side quests i did on my brothers console to do later, wanted to get to the DLC i paid only 2.50 for. So far I like it, again as Fable is very streamlined this much is expected but I justdis clockwork and just left the keep!
