Provide proof where I wrote this. Otherwise, it's a lie and provocation. In general, take a look at post number 100 in the thread; I was discussing this very topic there.
Let me explain it to you... The example with "War and Peace" was an analogy to your statement. You didn't grasp the history of the Ancients, but rather its description by Demilich, which is a rather boring retelling. And that's why you like the history of Ashan because you played the 5th and 6th installments, and you enjoyed them. The issue is in the presentation, not the essence. You didn't like the presentation of the story, and that's why you couldn't get into it. If you had played all of Might and Magic and Heroes 1-4, you would have a different perspective, wouldn't you? I'm not saying, "immediately vote for the old universe," I'm saying that since you're not familiar with the old universe, it's not your place to judge, is it?
I read your posts in the thread, starting from page 6. I didn't find "imho" anywhere...
I don't use "imho" because I use personal pronouns and words like "I think," "I believe," "in my opinion," etc. – I consider this a sufficient equivalent for identifying a personal opinion.

Omega, we seem to have different approaches to games.
For the most part, I play games not for the gameplay, but for the story. Aspects of gameplay don't interest me much, and there's no difference whether it's a super game or a game for the Dendy.
