[OFFICIAL] Fable 3 Details & Discussions


Recommended Posts

...

I've had those too, but I wouldn't describe it as unacceptably broken.

However, Lionhead are very likely aware, and it will be patched. An issue/bug submission page has been set up: http://lionhead.com/fable/fableIII/issuereport.aspx

(Yes, it shouldn't be like that in the first place, but at least something is happening about it)

The breadcrumb trail works exactly as it did in Fable 2. It occasionally vanished or pointed in weird locations too. It doesn't look like it's been altered one bit.

It's pretty similar, but it does feel a bit worse this time. However, at least we're not getting the 'schoom' noise every time it recalculates though. In any case, I'm hopeful it'll be improved. It is a bit odd since they built the engine in Fable II and should only have been improving it in III.

For those feeling Fable III is smaller than Fable II ... I'm not getting that feeling (haven't finished yet). Possibly it's partly due to Fable II having two sizable DLCs and Fable III not having any so far?

I don't like that I have to whistle to every person I see, where's my expression wheel! Where's mergo the magician! Argh! I think I'll go back to fable II where I could shoot gargoyles and not have to "unlock" chests by delivering notes and packages all day long just so I can spend 40 medallions on magic level 2...

Sounds like you haven't played much of the game at all so far...

There's little need to do many 'ferrying' quests. If you're obsessed with unlocking everything at a very early stage, perhaps ... but the idea isn't for you to do that. (And this is coming from a completionist).

Very disappointed with the ending,

I couldnt bring myself to be the tyrant my brother was and ended up with about 1.6M in the funds by the time the darkness came and all i got for my troubles was "you have defeated a great evil but a terrible price was paid, those who survive to rebuild whisper to each other: who is truly the kingdoms greatest enemy -- the invader who seeks to conquer or the ruler who resists too weakly", what annoyed me more is that it only seems to have one save so if i want to be the ###### just to see what happens i have to replay the WHOLE game?

I was disappointed in the ending too. I also thought the ending was just too short and that they hyped it up too much. Then the final fight itself was extremely easy too.

Now as far as you wanting to save everyone, you should of done the money glitch. It would of taken you anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes depending on how much money you had to start doing it with. If I recall correctly you need at least 8.5 or more million to do all the good deeds as well as save everyone (6.5 million people). The 6.5 million dollars is for the people since gold is a 1:1 ratio.

Sadly, yes, you have to play the hole game over again if you want to do things differently, in your case, be bad. It's just how it is and they should of done it a bit differently but meh, what can you do.

The ending was indeed weak, very weak.

I hated how you were portrayed badly no matter what you did, how the game lured you into a sense of, the game would be all messed up afterwards, not just let you keep playing - I felt forced to make some evil decisions to keep at least some funds, even break a promise but that was all pointless ...

come to think of it - I hated the ending.

That's why I did the money glitch (as I said above) so I could be 100% good without having to break a promise, kill any of the people, signing the bills for the better (lower tax, make a school for the children, build a waste dump, etc etc).

It can obviously be done without it though but it would be time consuming earning all that money and likely quite a few days of playing time while ignoring the main quest, so days don't go down because you only have 1 year.

I tried last night to do the money glitch but I couldn't for the life of me get it to work.

I searched google and found about 4 different people suggesting different methods of doing it.

Could someone post exactly how they managed to do it?

Here you go: http://videogamesblo...r-easy-gold.htm

It's really easy, just as long as you have a 2nd controller. Then just sign in (with a dumby profile) by pressing start on the controller in-game. Just as the video says there, just gift all your money (don't bother with items unless you want to duplicate them) to the 2nd controller/profile then have it reject, sign back in, reject them again and keep doing so. Eventually when you have enough money or think you do, sign out the 2nd controller and go to your sanctuary with your main profile and accept everything (constantly pressing A).

If you still need more, keep doing it, you can gift $100,000 per gift, so if you have $300,000 you'll have to give it to her 3x. Then keep rejecting it and your money will start building up extremely fast. As I mentioned, it should take up to 30 minutes, if even that, to get millions of dollars. You don't need more than $20 million, so anywhere between $16million is more than fine.

Oh by the way, I heard from some it doesn't work anymore? However, I have not received a patch for the game and I do play online so I'm not sure what other money glitches are out there but this one will work. I don't think it is possible for them to patch it unless they required the 2nd player to save the gave before they exit. I think that might be the only way possible for them to patch this, I could be wrong though.

Thanks. Will give it a try tonight.

I agree ... although I did get all the millions required to save everyone, and do all the good, it still wasnt a fulfilling ending. And yes, defeating the darkness was way too easy. and then the game just ends.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who felt this way, afterall. Playing through a second time now, with the money glitch and taking it a lot slower. Trying to enjoy it a little more.

Not sure what can be done better. The game is amazingly awesome.

Lots of things. I found the game a little bit of a chore to get through.

Must confess myself disappointed at this point. You'd think this game would have more options or depth to keep you going even well after initial release but there's just nothing to keep you playing. The story was the only thing keeping you going and now that you're done, there's no incentive to restart or keep going whatsoever. Was speaking to a friend of mine and we both think the game should have a sort of New Game Plus where you keep abilities, seals and all that but the enemies are now much stronger and there's far more of them. The mini-games are fun for 20 minutes, buying houses and collecting money is utterly pointless and exploring isn't that exciting.

Then you'd think Co-op could keep the flame going but man, it's horrid! SO much loading, when your friend goes back and forth between areas and sanctuary. Also, when doing co-op the loading times are almost double that of playing alone and in a span of a mere 30 minutes, it has already been loading hell. Then I brought a wad of gold into my friends game, he purchased stands and buildings with my money and I get sod all in return after leaving?

Fable II was the peak of the series, I loved that game. Fable III just feels like a cheap money grab and there's nothing really new under the sun - Probably one of the most shallow "Role playing games" I've played in a long time.

Not sure what can be done better. The game is amazingly awesome.

The moral choices were very easy for most of the game, black and white was sharply defined. Combat was not very deep, not many spells, tons of glitches, no expression wheel, not many outfits/clothes, having a character in your save menu (Jasper) tell you to check out the DLC every time you go in there gets damned annoying (I love John Cleese, i really do, but i can only stand hearing "there are new items in the sanctuary shop" so many times), the graphics were not very good, weapon morphing was not as deep as was hoped, it feels like they took a long time to make this game, but instead moved a few steps backwards in many areas. I love Lionhead, and i will no doubt give the next Fable a try - but they need to take all the criticism to heart and knock Fable IV out of the park.

That about sums it up for me to.

    • Last week I was investigating an issue with contacts and tried using the new Outlook. In the real (Classic) Outlook, you can easily go to any Outlook folder and present it in a Table View, then customize the columns to show/sort any field, which was exactly what I needed. But of course, the new Outlook doesn't have this feature at all. I gave up. Oh, and can we possibly stop claiming the new Outlook has PST support? What it really has is the ability to use the real Outlook in the background to pretend to have PST support. There is no PST support without the real Outlook installed.
    • Honestly just before Panos left it started to feel like MS just wasnt interested in them so they were being less innovative with them, and then when he DID leave for Amazon its kind of clear the direction is gone. It felt like Panos had both goals and drive, and a vision, but it felt like no matter what his title/department was the Surface devices never had the full interest of the rest of management and he was just pushing a bolder up a hill that MS was adding dirt to as he went.
    • A roguelike and a 4X strategy game are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The final leg of the Epic Games Store's mystery giveaways promotion just landed, and it brought along two more games to keep. Last week's Lonestar and Calico giveaways have now been replaced with copies of Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest to claim for PC gamers. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. Diving into the games, Songs of Conquest is developed by Lavapotion. This is a turn-based 4X strategy experience that has players making tough decisions and participating in tactical combat while also managing their kingdom. "Songs of Conquest is a turn-based strategy game inspired by 90s classics. Lead powerful magicians called Wielders and venture to lands unknown," explains the developer. "Wage battles against armies that dare oppose you, hunt for powerful artifacts and expand your territory. The world is ripe for the taking – seize it." Meanwhile, Rogue Waters comes from developer Ice Code Games. This rogue-lite experience has you taking the role of Captain Cutter as he commands his ship and crew through procedurally generated encounters. You'll be recruiting and training crew, use sea creatures, and battle with other ships and pirates. "Set sail as Captain Cutter, a pirate caught in a deadly struggle for power and vengeance," adds the developer. "Navigate dangerous waters, unleash mythical sea creatures, and outwit enemies as you chase legendary treasure and confront dark secrets." The newly available Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day, which is slated to be Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.
    • Still using Classic Outlook? Microsoft highlights 15 reasons to switch to New Outlook by Usama Jawad As many of you may know, Microsoft has been trying to get customers to ditch Classic Outlook in favor of New Outlook for quite some time now. To that end, it has added numerous capabilities to the latter, including PST features, and it is working on several more, such as a unified inbox. However, customer response has been a bit lukewarm so far, with many considering the New Outlook to be "hot garbage". Now, Microsoft has highlighted 15 features that users can leverage in New Outlook in yet another attempt to get customers to migrate. Although not all of the 15 capabilities are exclusive to New Outlook, in fact, most of them are available in Classic Outlook as well. But Microsoft hopes that this combination of familiar and fresh features will be able to attract existing users as well as new ones. For ease of readability, we have summarized the 15 features below: Pin an email: This makes it easier to track important emails Snooze an email: You can temporarily snooze an email thread for a specific time frame until it becomes relevant again. This can be very useful in scenarios where you don't feel like actively following a thread or simply want to follow up on a later date Add multiple categories at the same time: You can assign multiple categories to an email through a single, simplified interface Sweep: As the name implies, you can define automated move processes on your inbox to declutter it, rather than cleaning it up manually Schedule send: Does exactly what it says on the tin, and can be useful when accommodating recipients in different timezones Simplified folder sharing: The sharing process has been simplified so permissions are automatically applied on parent folders Follow a meeting: This is an RSVP option that lets people know that you won't be able to join the meeting but would still like to access a recap Save calendar views: You can save different views for the calendar based on different workflows Improved meeting tracking: Organizers have more controls in viewing meeting responses, such as the ability to sort and download them. Typically useful when there is a large audience Meeting recap: The Outlook Calendar surfaces a meeting recap with recordings, transcripts, and shared files Filtered views: Allows you to declutter your Calendar so that it's easier to scan and schedule Change a recurring event: Users can modify future events of a series of meetings while preserving the configuration of previous ones Rename your email account: This labeling makes it easier to identify multiple accounts in Outlook Modern themes: Exactly what the name says, plus Dark Mode Keyboard shortcuts: This facilitates flexible user behavior as customers can choose between Outlook for Windows shortcuts, Outlook for the web, or turn them off completely There you have it. It's a decent list, but it remains to be seen if it will move the needle in a meaningful way for users who are attached to Classic Outlook. Again, a lot of the aforementioned features are already available in Outlook Classic, but for some, native functionality is not present, and people typically resort to workarounds. Microsoft will be hoping that it's primarily those capabilities that get people to finally switch.
