Some strange person wrote this. It seems they haven't played Heroes 3 and don't know that Lightning and Arrow are two completely different spells. At least because they belong to different schools. They also don't know that in Heroes 3, there are various creatures with immunity to different schools of magic. This alone should be a distinguishing factor. Otherwise, I could say that, for example, Magic Fist and Ice Bolt have the same effect, only visually different.
I doubt that the Nival Interactive team didn't play Heroes 3. It says about the same effect, but a different visual representation, and what creatures and other things are in the game is not the point. And Magic Fist and Ice Bolt really have the same effect and differ only visually, and this is what, in my opinion, should be moved away from.

No, not all of it. I've tried playing the fifth installment many times. Yes, it worked. But it's very boring and uninteresting. The game doesn't grab you, but Heroes 3 has something special that captivated a huge number of people at the time. I still play "Heroes 3" from time to time because it's a truly turn-based strategy at the highest level. If any other similar game can compare to it, it's only "Warcraft 3," but that's already a different genre of strategy, so the comparison is inappropriate.
So, don't put labels on it; I just don't like the fifth installment in the series. But the sixth one gives some hope...
For me, the fifth game was the first, and I could spend the whole day playing it; it was very engaging (and I still play it sometimes). Then I tried playing Heroes 3, but it didn't grab me at all. If I had gotten hooked on Heroes 3 first and then moved on to the fifth game, it might have been the other way around; it depends on what you get used to first, and that's what seems better. Maybe I won't like the sixth game because I'm used to the fifth, but for now, I'm optimistic.
