Instead, the second half involves two quests and a lot of sitting on the throne listening to people speak and then pressing a button. I remember promises from Molyneux of ruling Albion, deciding to order troops to areas to quell rebellions or defend against invading armies and, sadly, a lot of that is missing from the second half of the game. On my first play through I wanted to be king and I rushed through the game, missing side missions. The storyline can seem very linear at times while you are given the freedom to explore from very early on in the game, side quests don’t become available until you complete stages of the main story quests. You are told that Albion needs protection and the easiest way to do that is to make the morally darker choice. However, when in power, you start to see why Logan is so evil. Leading the revolt, I found my choices were positive it felt right when looking at my progression that a prince trying to take down his evil brother should be good. This is perhaps due to the way the story works, after all a revolt against a tyrannical king should be a righteous quest and so naturally your choices are usually on the side of good. You have to protect the kingdom but to do so will require sacrifice, a sacrifice from you as the player or from your people which could lead you down the dark path to being the tyrant your brother was.įable has always been about the player’s moral choices, however with Fable III the number of choices feels like it has been cut back. In doing so, you will travel across Albion, fight for the people and learn more about your father and the inherited hero abilities you have while the second half involves ruling Albion in any way you see fit.

This is a game of two halves and, as Lionhead have mentioned, the first half involves you gathering allies to support your revolt. You must lead the revolt its time for a change and for the good of Albion you must take the throne and so the player and Sir Walter Beck, voiced by the fantastic Bernard Hill set off on an adventure to discover the powers of a hero and gather allies in the war against Logan. Unfortunately for the people of Albion your brother is a bit of a git, a tyrannical ruler so the kingdom is in disrepair, and its people oppressed. You are the prince or princess and your older brother Logan, voiced by Michael Fassbender, the current king. It’s been two years since Lionhead Studios released the acclaimed action RPG Fable II, and the franchise has cemented Lionhead as one of the UK’s best known development companies and this success is continued with Fable III.įable III is set fifty years after the adventures of Fable II, with the player taking on the role of the son or daughter of the former king of Albion and hero of Bowerstone.
