I was a big fan of 1 and an when bigger fan of 2. Got 3 expecting much the same and my disappointment was so great that I'm only now getting around to playing the first two more than 15 years later and I expect this one to be complete trash.

In a way, I have to thank fable 3. It was my first time feeling truely let down by a game and the domino effect it started eventually contributed to my radicalization as an anti-Corp, anti-rich, non consumerist. All that money and power and they use it to scam poor people out of their joy.

Fable 2 is the absolute best in the series. If you have the opportunity I'd recommend you try it. 1 and 3 is fun, but not nearly as good.
