Fable 3 gameplay footage from Comic-Con is very, very upsetting
117
We're not sure who was responsible for controlling the Fable 3 Comic-Con show floor demo shown in the video below, but whoever it was should be ashamed. Not because of all the peasant murder, mind you -- we've all done that -- but for executing the most aggressive flatulence attack we've ever seen.

Is this cultural humor that I don't understand, or some british developer's fetish?
I'm betting on the latter.

Why is the Fable franchise so obsessed with farting? To think of all the time that went into programing that just so people could go "hahaha, fart".

I see Fable " fans " whining about how they were let down by Molyneux .
" He said that God himself would come down and give me a fable made of pure glorious gameplay , wrapped in gold and fairytales blah blah blah..........."
I picked up Fable 1 with no info on it whatsoever , and I loved it . By the time Fable 2 had come out , I had heard about all the whining and moaning , and all the broken promises .Blah blah blah again . I loved Fable 2 just as much if not more than Fable 1 . I started following what molyneux says about his games that makes people so upset .
My personal opinion is that the guy simply likes to talk about games , he's always thinking about games , and what he can do or add to make it better . Thus a lot of times when he opens his mouth , he forgets to filter what he says , he gets excited and starts talking about what he wants to do with Fable . We all know that creating games is a process , not everything can make it into the final product , so I for one can cut the guy some slack for crafting the best Fable possible , even if he couldn't fit it all in there . To me the end product is a great , very playable game that I get many hours of enjoyment out of .
Fable 3 will be reserved as soon as I find out what the release date is , I'm hoping there will be a collectors edition.

What was going on with teh AI of the people coming to arrest the character, they looked ike they were in a kung fu movie, all waiting to attack and be taken out one by one. Exceptt ehy forgot to actually attack in any way shape or form, or block, or run away, or show any form of the I part of AI.

Because there are people that *gasp* actually like to go around and do this, from 12-year olds to those well above that age.

So the Farrelly brothers are co-producing Fable 3?

@Monkey D Luffy This honestly didn't look like an action game to me. Looked like an action RPG; I don't know many action games where you'll have to call in the ghostbusters for leaking slimmer out you backdoor.

I just can't get over the old & tired artstyle. Give us something fresh, revamped, something pleasing to the eyes. Getting PC version, hopefully a higher resolution will help.

Why does the female protagonist walk like a guy?

I hated the toilet humor in the first two games and now they want to make it even worse for Fable 3?
I prefer my humor to be of a higher caliber than fart jokes, thanks.
