Interesting continuation of the discussion on НР. It's a pity that it's not possible (I couldn't) to provide a link to a specific post, but here is a link to this page, after the words of JesusC, who almost reads my mind (except that my desire to play hasn't disappeared):
This Tournament had an unexpected effect on me. I no longer want to play Heroes of Might and Magic 3. The game has lost its charm; it's as if it has been violated. Previously, it seemed normal to find an AI bug and take advantage of it. But when all progress turns into exploiting loopholes, these loopholes overshadow the game itself. Don't you feel...(I don't know how to express it)... isn't it offensive that Deemer dies pathetically behind a wall, even though he could have taken out his enemy in one turn? It's a pity that the developers ceased to exist and didn't patch what needed to be patched.
and there is an interesting development of the topic about the game's artificial intelligence: What would happen if it were full-fledged? AmberSoler:
Currently, the VCMI project is successfully being developed, where the AI is being rewritten from scratch. Offline Tournaments are a competition against the existing AI, because there is nothing else yet. I am sure that if, in this Tournament, the moves for the computer opponent were made, say, by Sir Antoshka, it would be completely impossible to complete this map... You start, and the purple faction jumps to Deesse and takes her out on the third day (I would do the same if I were playing as the bot) - game over... A nightmare come true...
:smile24: And, by the way: NikTheOne:
a speedrun of the map deprives you of the opportunity to see more than half of the author's ideas. Although, of course, they may only be interesting to people who are far from offline play.
