Wouldn't be a Peter Molyneux presentation without that. 'Which, I just realized, I'm not supposed to talk about,' he concluded. 'That's why people didn't change their clothes, or change their weapons.' In Fable 3, he said, he's looking to make that character-customization busywork 'part of the game.' But go for Fable 3 as it is less likely to freeze. 'The 2-D parts of Fable 1 and Fable 2 were rubbish,' he responded. Otherwise, I heard that Fable 2 freezes a lot and can even cause an RROD to your Xbox 360. What, I asked, about other such menus and gauges? Instead of having a bar to show the player's remaining health, Fable III will take cues from action games, not RPGs, and have environmental graphic changes that show that you're close to death. 'It's completely clean! Why do we need the fucking health bar?' 'Look at the screen!' Molyneux gushed, gesturing at the monitor like Vanna White. In fact, there's no heads-up display elements on the screen at all.

3 gets hate for being a rushed mess and not delivering properly on the Kingdom aspect of the game.

3 gets a lot of unfounded hate because they 'game' of being monarch is not fun and too easy to game, but everything before that is pure Fable. What's the scoop? There's no health bar, he said. 2 is one of the best video games ever made. In a video interview earlier this month, Molyneux said players would be 'pissed' to hear about one of Fable III's features.
