I could have tolerated its pathetic story if the combat was fun and engaging.
I could have tolerated its boring and repetitive combat if the level up system didn't insist upon making you a 50+ year old to be really powerful.
I could even tolerated the level-up system if the story had been interesting.
Sadly, it didn't work out well. I can't fix the stupid premise of a Heroes Guild. I can't fix the repetitive combat. The only thing I could fix was the the level-up/aging part which still leaves too much of the game needing work.
And that's not even getting into my grumbling about the fact that enemy AI is beyond insulting in rescue quests. Gee, let's have 6 guards all run around you to go after the guy you're trying to rescue and let's also have this guy die in 3 hits. Swell.
Mediocrity would be a compliment for Fable TLC.
