Which version of Heroes do you like the most?

Voted for Heroes 3. Played the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th installments. The 3rd one was better than the 2nd. Played the 4th one a lot. It's better than the 3rd because you can choose which 6th and 7th-level creatures to build, and there's a rich selection when buying heroes. But it's less interesting in terms of magic. The 5th one. The main drawback: they don't run on my 1700 Celeron. Although, I recently bought a modern laptop, so I might try it. Nevertheless, I tried playing a bit at a friend's place. In the 5th one, I don't like that all the ranged units shoot at the target and miss, dealing 0 damage. I understand that the hero needs to develop their ranged attack skill, but the 3rd one is simpler in this regard. P.S. I only played the 3rd one online.
