I need help, or advice, or someone to vent their frustrations with me!

Last night, I had a hankering to play one of my old favorites: Fable 3... However, when I loaded the game, my entire character reset itself somehow.

Now, the last time I played was back in July of 2013, and I specifically remember saving and quitting while I was in the map room in Bowerstone Castle.

The other thing I remember is that the last time I played, someone on my friend's list hopped into my game to help me with some achievements.

So when I started my game last night, all my magic, legendary weapons and progress, including over 3 million dollars, was completely erased. I was pissed! I still am, and beyond belief.

Has this happened to anyone else?? And is there any way of getting my previous character back? Or is it just a lost cause :(

It's probably gone for good. It could be a hick-up with the multiplayer system that caused your character to reset to zero. It's never happened to me but I do know a few people that it has happened to. =(

Sorry to hear that. Fable 3 has always been kind of glitchy, something similar happened to me the first month I played it. Make sure your save is not corrupted.

This may be a dumb question, but how do you check to see if it's corrupted or not? I've never had this happen with any characters in any games I've ever played, so I'm kind of lost with this one.

Go into your hard-drive (System - Settings - Storage) and open up your saves. Fable III will have it's own unique file so just open it up and you should see your save and DLC's. It will tell you if the save is corrupt.

Also, probably a pretty unhelpful answer, but did you check to make sure you're loading off the right device? I mean if you have a memory stick or something you could be trying to load the wrong one. :/

But like vermillion said, fable is pretty notorious for being glitchy. :(

I had a save with all the weapons and the chef's hat. Went to join a friend's game and it didn't properly allow me in. When I reloaded, everything was gone. My entire collection was wiped. No weapons, no clothing, no items and even the clothes I was wearing had vanished, leaving me naked and shamed. So basically, an average Friday night for me. There was nothing I could do. I haven't played it since.

Never had this happen to me, but then again I had this game before any of my friends and had it 100%ed by the time they got it. But I have never had any problems with any of the fable games except for some of the horrible storylines.

This didn't happen to me in fable but has happened in other games like wwe 2k14 and contrast for me. It becomes super infuriating.

I recently had to transfer all my games to a new hard drive so maybe it got lost along the way that way? I mean I transferred all the licenses (idk if that had anything to do with it) and I know where my save files are for Fable 3... Just everything is missing. Ugh. I wish Lionhead came out with a patch to fix all the glitches. It's such a shame because it's a good series.

I transferred all my saves to a new hard drive about 2 years ago... Lost 9 saves from different games in that process, enchanted arms, beowulf, the darkness, GTA 4, turok, midnight club, red dead, soul calibur 4 and kane and lynch.
