Fable 3 combat video is not safe for wolves

We understand that wolves are a common enemy staple in RPGs since there's always forests and forests only have a handful of natural predators. But Peter Molyneaux and his team seem to have skipped any sort of research when recreating these animals for the latest installment of Fable, let alone watch the Discovery channel for insight, as evident in the following gameplay footage.

DA_SHREDDER5055d ago

This series has been dead to me since the last iteration. Fable 1 is classic, and still one of my favorite rpg's to date, but seriously they killed it, and it seems they are just gonna continue the onslaught against themselves.

TheHater5055d ago

I think Fable: The lost Chapter was by far my favorite Fable Game to date. I loved the first and The Lost Chapter, but fable 2 was such a huge disappointment and Fable 3 isn't looking any better for me. Maybe it time for them to end this franchise and starting working on a new franchise because they are not doing anything to help this franchise that had so much potential.

Why would the end the franchise? Fable 2 sold over a million more copies than the first game. Sure it didn't have everything Fable fans wanted but overall Fable 2 was still a very good game. Fable 3 already looks much better than Fable 2, and I can't wait to play it myself.

EDIT: @DA_Shredder - Fable 3 is going to sell just as good as Fable 2 if not better, I'm almost certain of it. They did lose some fans with Fable 2 because it didn't live up to the hype, but at the same time Xbox is growing everyday with more users and for every fan they loose they will gain 2 more. Peter hypes his games up to much for them not to sell, but that's not the reason I'm buying it, I'm buying it because I enjoy the series including Fable 2.

what was so horrible about fable 2 that you call it a huge disappointment. Because i'm playing it right now and of course there is some glitches but It's not a huge disapointment. Just the fact that you can play co-op with a friend made the game great for me.

There so much to do in this game it's great, i just wished that it was a little harder and more types of monsters and guys to kill. Kind of lacking in that department

the first Fable was good, 2nd was horrible, and the 3rd looks to be going down the same road as the 2nd. idk about fable 3, i have to wait till i c more on it. but so far ill stick to fallout

EVILDEAD3605055d ago

Fable 2 was easily one of the funnest action RPGs I've played in my entire life. I didn't even expect it to be nearly as good as it was..but I couldn't stop playing it..

The length was perfect and ended up playing it 3 times over to see the different outcomes (even though I didn't finish the EVIL)..I just wanted my damn dog back

Can't wait for the new one..but again the dilemna will be trying to play when both F3 and Fallout 3 are both out at the same time..

Decisions Decisions

kissmeimgreek5055d ago

haha Fallout 3 and Fable 2 also came out at the same time. Man was that a trough choice (got Fable 2 first though). Its funny how their sequels are coming out at the same time as well.

nupes985055d ago

I agree. I have enjoyed Fable 1 and 2. Fable 3 should be much of the same. I am also looking forward to Fallout : New Vegas.

Spenok5055d ago

I dont know. I thought that fable 2 could have been much better. I just always get that feeling that Peter promises the world, yet we only get the moon instead. The games are still fun, but when the first half of the second game is EXACTLY the same progressing as the first game, i feel like it could have been done better. I enjoyed it, i just thought things could have been done a better.

van-essa5055d ago

First Reach, now Fable 3. Gears 3 next?

whothedog5055d ago (Edited 5055d ago )

I was VERY disappointed in Fable 1 and never played the others... I am STILL pissed that Peter lied to sell that game.(not really pissed, more thunderstruck)

"This series has been dead to me since the last iteration. Fable 1 is classic, and still one of my favorite rpg's to date, but seriously they killed it, and it seems they are just gonna continue the onslaught against themselves"

B. S.

Fable 2 is wayyy better than the 1st in all fronts.

stop acting like you like the 1st or own it to then come here bashing the second and try to convince others that have no idea what is or how good it is fable to jump on your wagon.

Seriously? FULL OF Sh1+ Fable 2 is way better compared to the 1st.

The same goes to you "TheHater"

LOL!!! POSERS!

FULL OF CRAP! LOL!!!

Xfanboy5054d ago

Imagine after KZ1 they said the franchise was dead to me!! Shut down please!!

emitsomla5054d ago

Is still alive, u r just a hater...
This one looks to be even better...
First day purchase for sure.

Fable 3 is not gonna sell, trust me, everyone I know that loved Fable 1 was pissed about how poorly fable 2 was and probably wont buy the third because of how shitty the second was. Im not being a fanboy by anyways, if anything I was a Fable 1 fanboy, and still am.

despair5055d ago

funny you say that because i believe fable 2 sold millions. And molyneux may be full of crap usually but my guess is that fable 3 will pass the 5 million mark that they are expecting. Its just one of those games that sells.

Xfanboy5054d ago

Why are u such a fanboy?? Does Ps3 have better Ninja turtle games or somethng do they come with PS plus??

MGRogue20175055d ago (Edited 5055d ago )

... Didn't complete Fable 2, So I most likely won't be buying this one..

XXXCouture5055d ago

the combat bored me to death.. and was hilariously easy

hassi945054d ago (Edited 5054d ago )

And this combat looks exactly the same.

There is very little chance I will buy this any time near launch. Fable II was a bit of fun but if Fable III's at all similar it's not worth £40...

qface645055d ago

i used to hate fable then i got the 1st one in a garage sale for 2 dollars and i liked it allot i wish there was more but then i played the first 20-30 minutes of fable 2 and i dislike fable now i really do

i seriously hate walking around in that game its like hes walking on ice

asyouburn5055d ago (Edited 5055d ago )

the less of an rpg it is.
@the disagrees, they even took out xp in the new one. its like molyneux thinks we're too stupid to level up our own characters. this one will probably be a mindblowing 10 hrs! this game sucks. my girlfriend plays the second, but only because she sucks at games

Croaker5055d ago

I still play Fable II because it's fun. It's got nothing to do with skill in a game. Fable III isn't an RPG anymore. It's an action adventure title now with very lite RPG mechanics. Peter has said this a few times now.

kissmeimgreek5055d ago

they only got rid of conventional xp. Your character still "levels up" based on how many followers they have.

Cueil5055d ago

Is The Elder Scrolls series not RPGs then?

hassi945054d ago

You do level up loads of different stats in Elder Scrolls (at least Oblivion, I was a PS2 owner then Xbox 360, never PC gamer until recently), and it's XP based...

Fable II - A Fantasy Series at Peak Performance

Fable II launched back in 2008 and remains the best the series has offered. Ahead of the series comeback, it's time to look at the classic.

Crows90317d ago

They gotta bring back those gargoyles!

Dudeson317d ago

I'd love to play it again, this time on pc though. Forever waiting on that pc port.

GaboonViper317d ago

Loved this game, oh and i always saved my dog at the end, hope the new Fable has a animal companion.

got_dam317d ago

Fable 2 was the best inthe series. Peter waaaaaaay over promised with fable 1 and it was good but disappointing. He didn't go crazy eith hype for the second game and it was surprisingly awesome. Then he ran his mouth promoting 3 and it was the worst of the 3.

cthulhucultist317d ago

Funny story: Fable 3 had a funny way of keeping the promises you made in the first half of the game and having enough money to defeat the darkness.

You only had to collect enough money to buy 2 stores in a busy market district. You then raise the prices to maximum and you turn xbox 360 internal clock 99 or more years ahead.

The next time you load the game, all the rents from the 99 years are collected immediately.

But yes I agree that 3 was the weakest of the three.

Demetrius317d ago

I only got to play it once 😩 I'm so tempted to buy a Xbox 360 slim but planning on getting the series x soon since I got a PS5 in February Im ready to get saints row 1&2 back, GTA 4, fable 2, but I also want to play infamous 1&2 again Sony screwed us over with the stream only for saints row 2 and other gems smh

Fable: The Greatest Game Concept That Never Was

The Fable series is one of our favorite gaming franchises. Heres what we want from the rumoured sequel

ColdSin1394d ago (Edited 1394d ago )

Microsoft announced Fable Legends at Gamescom 2013, not E3 2013. I'd like for the new Fable to have the same artstyle as Fable Legends.

Zoned1394d ago

Thanks for that. I agree, definitely like the art style, but that's it. Nobody wanted Fable Legends!

moongrim1394d ago

How about Fable II Remastered for the pc please?!

RaveTears1394d ago

I would honestly buy the Xbox series S just for Fable 2 remastered or a remake.

moongrim1394d ago

I've never played it so I'm like dying over here.

Zoned1394d ago

Fable II was probably the best of the series. It had its flaws but overall was definitely a step in the right direction. Fable III was a huge misstep in comparison

RaidenBlack1394d ago

I was disgusted with Fable III

RaidenBlack1394d ago (Edited 1394d ago )

Yeah ... its an odd situation ain't it?
MS released Fable 1, Fable 3 and Fable 1 Remastred for PC.
Skipping the best one in the franchise.
Same goes for Gears: GoW, GoW Remastered, Gears 4 and Gears 5 are on PC.
And Halo: The entire Halo MCC and Halo Infinite will be on PC. But no Halo 5.

Zoned1393d ago

Definitely agree but you lost me with Halo 5. That was my least favourite Halo game (out of the Halo numbered titles)

RaidenBlack1393d ago

Yea, same here. Only liked the visuals of Halo 5 (that too on an One X, it doesn't look that good on the One S)

But what I meant was, MS is releasing every Halo game on PC from 1 to Infinite, except 5. Which is a bit odd.
Coz the free Halo 5-Forge was quite popular in PC community during its release.

porkChop1394d ago

I never got to play it because I sold my 360. It should have been remastered.

The only thing I can think of is if after the release of Fable Anniversary they decided to take the series in a different direction. They might not want the new game to be associated with the older ones.

sushimama1394d ago

Well lets hope Microsoft are going to announce a new Fable. The MS fans deserve a great Fable game. If it is announced and the gameplay looks cool, this might convince me to get, at least a Series S. It would be my very first Xbox console.

Zoned1394d ago

I would definitely buy an Xbox Series X if a 'proper' Fable sequel were to be revealed!

RgR1394d ago

You mean Fable fans.
Don't have to be an MS fan to want Fable but you definitely need to be a Fable fan to want a new Fable game.

RgR1394d ago

Kicking chickens! That was fun....hope modern society doesn't ruin it for a next installment.

chiefJohn1171394d ago (Edited 1394d ago )

Hell no Fable legends is NOT what we wanted.
Fable 2 is what we want outta Fable. Remake Fable 2 please.

5 Sequels We Would Love To See On Project Scarlett

This has to be one of the lamest lists I have seen for wishing for sequels.

Perfect Dark should be on the top of this list and it's amazing that MS hasn't even attempted to try and bring this amazing franchise back.

Charlie Murder, MS should pay and get Ska Studios to make a sequel to this excellent beat 'em up game. IMO, they should have been the ones to make Battletoads

Lost Odyssey, another no brainer and should be right up there with the whole Gears/Halo/Forza chant. And while we are talking about JRPGS...

Magna Carta, I loved the art style for this game. MS should definitely try and get a sequel to this for their new syste,

Bomberman Live, really one of the best in the series and I loved how it was simple and just focused on MP. Being able to customize your Bomberman was fun and I would love to see this make a return to Live.

Platformgamer1663d ago (Edited 1663d ago )

sunset overdrive 2... oh wait
