Very little reason to re-release it...reviews of the DLCs seem to be very average, and the extra bits and pieces, dog breeds, potions and whatnot, are only for people who get really into the game. Besides, I'm guessing all the effort now will be put into Fable 4, since the whole on-rails shooter fiasco at E3 has made our boy Peter crap his pants in fear of ridicule.
Well, that's even more risky, fable 1 > fable 2 > fable 3. After a fiasco maybe trying with fable 4 could make things worse, and if comparisons with kingdoms of amalur arise that may be problematic.
Molyneux was trying to do a game very casual-friendly, aim for the blue ocean were money is to be printed, he wanted to have fable right between the sims and the DS, and to some extent I would say he succeeded, but the people in that blue ocean didn't perceive that. "Fable 3" is quite scary in that sense, because people feel they missed fable 1 and fable 2, doesn't sound like a starting point where more casuals will come to the game, casuals don't know about fable, don't feel it's a game for them.
So he should better start a new franchise that looks enjojable to casuals.
