Actually now that I recall some parts of the Fable, I do remember there were many instances of bloom. However, none of it bothered me at all. I dunno what those critics were thinking, I think it helped beautify the world even more in a sort of impressionistic way.

I really admire how Chaos Theory handled it, you don't necessarily need to shove certain visual effects down people's throats.
