What were your expectations for Heroes 4?

I wasn't expecting anything, I just got tired of playing Heroes of Might and Magic 3 for 2 years straight (a lot and often) and tried Heroes of Might and Magic 4... and ever since then, I've been playing Heroes of Might and Magic 3 very rarely (probably the last time was a year ago), but I can't get enough of Heroes of Might and Magic 4. :D

I tried Heroes of Might and Magic 5 - no, I didn't like it.
