Even worse than Fable II.

Story - The story in Fable III never really caught my attention. It just bored me the whole way through. The game includes no interesting characters and the only thing that I can say that is good about the gameplay is the voice acting. All of it is well done. I particularly liked Jonathan Ross's part in the game. Overall the story is one of the many weak parts of the game.

Graphics - This is easily the strongest point of the whole game. The game from an artistic standpoint is fantastic. The colourful lively world of Albion really is something beautiful. Unfortunatly Fable III has too many technical issues for it to really excell in the graphics department. There are framerate problems throughout your journey through Albion affecting your enjoyment. The game also has numerous glitches. The worst of witch is your gold trail that leads you to your next quest dissaparing constantly. This greatly halts your progress at certain points in the game. However there is more positive than there is negative in the graphics section so there will be a good score in the graphics section

Gameplay - Every aspect of the gameplay in Fable has been streamlined from the previous installments and I say for the worse. The combat is now no fun at all. The combat is now so basic and simple that you can just spam the magic button to win because it is terribly overpowered. The melee attack is now useless because the enimies just constantly block the whole time making it impossible to do any damage with melee weapons most of the time. Lionhead have also now made interacting with the villagers in Fable no fun at all. In Fable II you were able to choose your interactions with villagers now you just get two random choices most of them are the same every time. You will've tangoed with strangers many times before the end of the game. The boss fights in Fable III are a joke I can only remember one and it was pathetic. Spamming the magic button will get you an easy victory. The gameplay in Fable III is very poor. Lionhead made it worse than Fable II and I didn't like Fable II's gameplay all too much.

Enjoyment - As you can expect the enjoyment is extremley low for me in Fale III. The game was just a chore to play. It isn't a very long game I beat it in about nine hours but I skiped most of the side quests. The game has no replay value to me. Playing Fable III was a waste of nine hours of my life. I recommend you skip this game and save your money for something better.

Story - 4.5
Graphics - 8
Gameplay - 3.5
Enjoyment - 3
Final Score - 4.5
