Feb 24, 2013I loved the game's concept of developing your character as a monarch. But the combat system is not funny at all and is what prevents me to play this game twice just to see the other alternative ending.

Apr 14, 2017Would have been a much better game if they didn't just port the damn thing, riddled with game breaking bugs. It could of been so much more. 150 motherf*cking characters.

Oct 28, 2014it has some interesting ideas and originalities but the childish theme of fable series has taken over the gameplay making it the most stupidly easy game i've played. also these original ideas -for example the inventory system- is poorly executed. and on top of everything there is microsoft's in game purchases thing......

May 1, 2013Overall a very lackluster game- I loved fable, liked fable 2 (loved aside from the ending really), and hated fable 3.
There were very few gear/weapon choices, the magic was changed dramatically (in a bad way), the gameplay was insanely easy and monotonous, and the story was not very interesting.
Not worth playing. -

Jan 9, 2014Fable III, very very buggy game, okay plot, terrible graphics for a teenies (2010-present) game! It looks like it was made in 2005! The first two were fabolous. I would rate it 5.3/10 or 57%

Aug 2, 2014The game wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either. Combat is repeatable and relatively boring. The story line is decent enough, but there wasn't anything unique enough about this game to really make eager to play it.

Jun 28, 2023if we look on this game in vacuum its even good, above average, but in comparison with fable 2 and especially 1 this one is s h i t, it is not fable, no atmosphere, no reference to the perfect 1st part

Jan 26, 2022What a let down after marvellous and magical Fable Lost Chapters. This game is simply basic. Add to it incredibly low difficulty and idiotic UI that teleports you to room just to change something or get present for someone.

Mar 28, 2021Average MMO-like experience. This game gives initially the promise of something bigger than it really is. In the end of the day it consists of zillions of repetitive actions that do not matter. Story is a mary sue stuff that does not really bring anything interesting artistically speaking; in the end Fable III is just an annoying chore.

May 31, 2011A depressingly bad game. Humor is pressed and the good/evil choices are simplistic in design while the game remains shorter than ever. The game is incredibly easy with absolutely no challenge for anyone over the age of 5.

Jun 13, 2011Repetitive relationship quests that compare to an MMO grind fest. Too many similar looking NPCs. Unbalanced combat system. Feels more like a platformer than an RPG. The humor is nice when you start, but gets old real quick.
-
Jun 22, 2011Terrible interface. If I wanted to play like that, I'd be using a console not a PC.
Devs should really get their heads out of their asses. PC gamers are not the same as Console gamers.
All the hype couldn't save a half a55ed interface and arcade like fighting. -

Sep 15, 2013I was really excited about this game, but when it was released it got boring INCREDIBLY fast. The gamers were promised to feel powerfull while playing the game. All I felt was that the enemies were too weak. There's no real penalties for dying. The story sucks. This game must be the worst in the trilogy.

Pelit (Finland)Oct 19, 2011An excellent interactive fairy tale. Due to interesting moral choices, it has a lot of replay potential. [June 2011]
-
PC FormatJul 12, 2011A competent example of a PC port and of an RPG, but its obsessions with consumerism dampens the adventure. [Aug 2011, p.100]

PC PowerPlayJul 10, 2011A fun, light-hearted romp, but one that pales in light of its predecessors. [Aug 2011, p.68]
