What is your opinion about Heroes IV?

And I believe that the main drawback of this experiment is that heroes, as such, are absent! Where is the individuality and uniqueness? A hero should have a specialization, but here everyone is the same, you even choose any portrait you want...

So CTPAHHuK, it all started with this phrase. This referred to the initial specialization. What you're bringing up is the hero's progression; yes, that is interesting, original, and allows for the creation of DIFFERENT and UNIQUE heroes. But specifically CREATING them—the initial choice is the same. I can play as Nature and create a hero identical to one from Barbarian.... Whereas in 3, even if I wanted to, I couldn't turn Solmyr into Gunnar or Tazar there..... Do you understand? It was exactly

Where is the individuality and uniqueness?

those were the key points. And here you are just "listening to yourself"; look at Magnus's post, he clearly separated these things and answered.

P.S. Show me the "general phrases" in my posts...
