Had the opposite in Fable 2. Coming up to the final boss I had burned through all my healing items, all I had was food and drink. So I ate and drank it all.

Go into the final room, in engine cut scene starts, the final boss starts his evil speech...

And my character proceeds to puke all over him.

I made the "mistake" of heavily investing in real estate in Fable 3, so when the time came to choose between "Fund the army to defend against the dark lord" or "Bankrupt the orphanage" I just paid for the whole thing out of pocket and broke the moral dilemma. Oops, I guess?

That's what you're supposed to do though? Fable 3 is about becoming an oligarch and charging rentpigs every dime they have for basic necessities.

Only game I consistently ran out of consumables in was Terraria for me but they are renewable there.

I love that that is even a fucking option

Are you excited for the new Fable reboot? I'm wary of how companies are now, and the fact that Playground games is making it (they've only made extremely good racing games) so there is some hope!

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm cautiously optimistic. Fable 3 stunk up the joint, but I will look at the new Fable when it comes out.

Yeah, I still enjoyed Fable 3 for what it was, but they definitely dropped the ball on so so many things that made me love Fable 2 the most out of the franchise.

That hand holding crap was a semi neat idea, but they overused it for quite a lot of things that didn't necessitate that mechanic. Helping the little girl out of the cave was a good use for it, and leading your love interest in the beginning, and then helping your right hand man (I forget his name at the moment) when he was blind. Other than that, why? :P

I didn't like the whole "xx days remaining" mechanic. :(

[–] LucidNightmare@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh, dang! See, I forgot about that. That happens near the end when the big bad is coming, right?

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Pretty sure it was through the whole game...
