I haven't played Fable III yet, so I can't say.

I'd suggest maybe getting Fable - The Lost Chapters instead for now.
It's on sale as well and is a good bit cheaper.

I was a bit disappointed by Fable 3. If you want to play a Fable and you haven't already, I vouch for Fable - The Lost Chapters.

Angry Joe does a good job of explaining why it's so awful.

What it comes down to is it has an awful inventory system that's handled by multiple loading screens. That's reason enough to avoid it.

Angry Joe is always pretty awesome in his assessments.

I didn't have much of a problem with the loading screens. I admit the inventory system is a bit weird, but it's easy enough to get used to, and more interesting than navigating the menus most of the time.

I have played Fable 3 a bit and, in my opinion, it can hardly be called a RPG. Everything in this game is very very simple.

If your new to RPG's and looking at Fable, I'd advise playing Fable - The Lost Chapters. It's the best of the series.

Its veery nice Action RPGstyle game. It's easy, quest are totaly for dumb asses, cus u have always yellowy path which show you where to go. But fighting is veery nice and relaxing. If u want to play in a not challenging game, just to joy killing mobs and walking around to talk with people, buy it. But if u want to joy like in Witcher, or other AAA RPG games, dont buy. Its almost the same game like Fable The Lost Chapters the mechanics of the game just didint changed by all this years.

I'm going to add my recommendation for Fable - The Lost Chapters. It is superior to Fable 3 in every single way. For a game that's 9 years old, it looks and plays very well. The PC port got a lot of love and the keyboard and mouse controls feel very natural. It is without a doubt one of my favourite games of all time.

I enjoyed it too, and I've seen the angry joe review and even agree with most of what he said. It's definitely far from perfect but I still liked it enough to play through the whole thing. Would I recommend it as a game to start out with? No. I'll agree with the poster below me and say Fable Lost Chapters is better if you want something on sale on steam.

Yeah, nah. If you want an easy RPG-ish game, play Fable : The Lost Chapters or the first Overlord (second one ain't that good). Fable III is not only dumbed down, but plain dumb as well. Oh, and it uses GFWL.

I bought it to try if its really THAT bad (from amazon for a few bucks, so i wont regret it xD). Still didnt find time to do it :P But if you have lots of money and dont know what to do with them (or if its in awesome sale like mine was :D), I think you can give it a try, I ve heard its pretty noob-friendly :)

buy fable 1 instead (and 2 isn't on pc for some reason but if you have an xbox anyway 2 was fun)

then again if you hadn't played 1 or 2 you won't be as disappointed by 3, it was probably better than I remember (but maybe not too too much, the game was like a stripped down alpha demo of fable 2)

then again if you hadn't played 1 of 2 you might judge the fable series by 3

but then again whats it on sale for? if its cheap or at like $5 or something then why not. definitely not worth 50 but should be worth 5

so if its around 10 or 15 or so might as well try it, but definitely get fable 1 too

(1>2>>3)
(1 was best,tlc is 1 with more content. only things i didn't like were I liked jack's real voice better than the tlc and they broke the end by giving you a 2nd equally powerful sword so evil meant nothing but then again you only got it when you were done anyway so at least theres something to use it on in tlc)
pretty much what this guy said http://www.blisteredthumbs.net/2011/01/aj-top-reasons-fable-3/

tldr-
so yeah why not if its cheap enough

It gets a lot of negative reviews. Understandably so, it's an awkward console port. Controls, Co-op, Inventory, several other things just don't feel natural for PC gaming.

My expectations were quite low with this game before I bought it eventually. I found myself enjoying it thanks to low expectations of the game before going into it. It certainly is not as good as the previous Fable games but it does offer some good fun still. I would only recommend this game if your expectations of it are not set too high, that would likely lead to disappointment.

Fable TLC is better, and has mods.

I really liked it on Xbox 360. I loved every single Fable game to be released. I don't undertand why people always complain about 2 and 3.

Because it's not like the holy grailed Fable 1 that EVERYTHING must be compared to.

IE: People don't like change.

No, it's disgustingly bad. Only a special kind of person can screw up the UI so horribly.
