Co-op is silky smooth, btw. No complaints at all.
And I take back what I said about the evolving weapons. I didn't think they took actions like treasure hunting and interactions into account. Not only is that awesome, I'm sure it's a floodgate the dev team hasn't fully realized (because they still expect you buy other weapons). I feel a connection with my sword I simply never felt for any weapon in any game. It is my sword. And I like playing with my bro and seeing his hammer. It's very cool, but I feel like this concept is just the beginning. I would like some sort of wiki to fully examine all the details that can form from whatever habits. |

I'm fine with the random interactions if they make sense. Dancing like they do in the game seems more fitting to do with a girlfriend or wife than as a way of saying "Hello, blacksmith I have never met before. How are you?"
I think the hand holding is cool but I've not used it much outside of quests yet. They could expand on it but the more you expand on a small feature the more it looks like a gimmick. Hugging could have been both triggers togethor. This would let you turn a hand hold into a hug and vice versa. Co-Op is another thing I've still to try. I'm not getting much time to actually put the game through its paces for one reason or another. |

Well Fable is something of a collection of various gimmicks, I wouldn't be surprised if sports was introduced next.

I didn't know treasure hunting etc was taken into account for weapon morphs. I thought it was basically your alignment, your fighting style (flourishes or quick swipes) and what you killed that determined how things changed. That's cool that so much effects the weapon. I just hope drastic morphs keep happening after you have fully upgraded your weapon. I heard it only really changes 5 times.
I'm not sure how unique the weapons are because I saw one hammer that looked identicle to mine in a shop. Give it time and someone will put up an FAQ about how to get any look you want for your weapons. I'd not be surprised if people figure out how to make the Master Sword or something. I can see a future DLC containing some kind of shop or Royal blacksmith that lets you actually select what your weapon looks like. I agree with feeling the weapons are our own. I've used the same weapons since I began. I just wish I could think up a name for my hammer. I want to name it something Scottish or Celtic as it's my "theme". I'm wearing a Scottish outfit with a Scottish/Irish dog. I have a beard and a war hammer. Thought it would be cool to play it with the Scottish theme because I'm Scottish, I imagined my Fable II guy was Scottish and this game is about rebelling against a tyranical English king. Plus the rebel flag appears to be just the Scottish flag coloured red, my favourite colour. So I thought it would make sense. The AI seems determined to force you to use ranged attacks btw. After going through the game as primarily melee. The enemy AI no longer comes anywhere near me and is mostly made up of people with rifles, standing 3 miles away. |

Hmm... It may be possible the enemies learn from your past battles. I use my gun more than anything and I swear I faced Hollowmen that dodged my bullets Matrix style when I shot at them. This didn't make them much more difficult, but it took me by surprise.
RoXer mentioned that the combat was laggy. I think he's not used to the pace of it all, as the combat is largely unchanged from Fable 2. I would love for your blacksmith idea to get in, messing with details at will. Perhaps it should wait a bit, though. After people explore evolving their weapons more. Thinking about Fable 2's DLC (which was well done), exciting things can come for Fable 3 - but some technical patches should be in order as well. Increased enemy difficulty, adjusted interaction system and yeah, maybe faster attack responses to bring the combat more in line with the action games that inspired the team in the first place. |

It would be interesting to have AI learning how you did your other battles but it seems a little strange to force a player to abandon their chosen play style and adopt another in a game about freedom of choice.
Playing as a melee character and doing a fetch quest for the preorder villager that requires you to get something near a bandit camp when the AI is all range attack is not pretty. I swear the enemies where never ending and that the larger enemy with the cigar kept showing up. I'd kill him but then two more would spawn from nowhere. I was near death so often that, in the end, I just had to grab whatever it was I had to grab and run. Combat is fine, I think. I really like some of the new finishers. The hammer finishers can make you wince and others are just plain cool. Has anyone else had their Hero put an enemy in a sort of full nelson type move and break the enemies neck? I've had it happen about 3 times, now, at random. It's not a weird glitch because he lifts the arms, you hear the neck snap and everything. I liked the Fable II combat so I'm glad it's not changed much. I'm hoping a patch is out ASAP. 1 DLC area/quest is already complete but I'm guessing there will be more. Edit: Think I've come up with names, finally. Lugh's Hammer (Celtic god of war) and Morrigan's Rifle (Celtic godess of war). Also, found out Rhiannon is the Welsh goddess of birds, horses, enchantments, fertility and the underworld. Random. |

I did a finishing move where I broke a guy's neck by hopping on it Cammy style. Very nice. Since you did a wrestling hold, and you wield a hammer, I assume the finishing moves depend on your play style as well. Gonna eat fish to get thinner, I like the thinner look.

Sounds cool, breaking a neck Cammy style. I'm really impressed with this. More than I was before. Never knew weapon morphs where determined by so many different things and that weaponless finishers would varies based on it aswell.
So, strength gets wrestling holds, skill gets cammy like moves, what do Will users gets? Shinku Hadouken would be cool. ![]() |

Just eat tons of meat and you'll fatten right up.
Got married and regretted it. It was spur of the moment and I didn't think it through. Then, our first night in our family house, the wife suggested we have sex. I said yes and was going to use a condom but thought "Nah, I'll be fine this once.". The screen goes black with loads of Ooh's and Aah's and then the wife says she's pregnant. Screwed up my Heroes life, I think ![]() |

Not gotten too far, but I love it thus far. The one thing that bothers me is that you can't control what expressions you get right off the bat.

From what I understand, you are a king or the son of the king or something, correct? You are the child of the hero from Fable 2, right?
I also hear you have letter delivering quests for peasants to get on their good side. If true, I hate that. I'm their fucking king, they should be kissing my ass or eating my sword. I'm not the post office, fuckers. |

I would think that's before you become to king. To gain the trust of villegers to help with the revolution.

Yeah, I took a break and played some of this. Way too many fed-ex quests. I think they're getting progressively worse

Are you even delivering something worthy of a king to be? Like return the Orb of Power to its rightful owner, magic scrolls to the court wizard? Or is it junk mail?

Mostly junk mail. Though sometimes they have you go dig up there crappy trinkets for them.
You really don't have to do them. I did only one for my future spouse and one for my kid. |

I've beat the game just a few minutes ago, probably want be doing another play through. Not to spoil anything I will say there is a confusing plot hole after you become king, plus the story is way too short, and all together isn't really that impressive. I'm happy I just rented this. Fun for what it is, but it really isn't that much.

I say wait until the game of the year addition is out for around $20. That way you can get some expansions to flesh out the short lived story.
Do wanna say that the combat in this game is a great improvement over its predecessors. Some of the finishing moves you can do are devastating. |

How long does it take to just get through the story? No there are side quests and such to increase playthrough, but average guess appreciated.

Based on his questions I don't believe he's seen reviews and youtubes. He's asking questions of fairly old news. This thread covered them all. I think it would benefit him to look into it himself. He might end up not liking what you guys recommend, even if he gets it for 20$.
This is part of a bigger nag for me with general people and how they buy games, not a BDC thing. People aren't smart consumers. These games are expensive. |
