Why are you all so gloomy :) Go read Imp's post — he says everything is great. Regarding the part about "as usual, a bunch of add-ons, money grabbing" — it's obvious that developers will want money; who would kill the goose that lays the golden eggs? But why on earth do you assume the add-ons will be stupid and pointless? It's foolish to claim that based on other games that have nothing to do with Heroes. As for there being few maps — a map-making community has long since formed around Heroes. So there will be plenty of maps for everyone. And searching for good maps online isn't even necessary — you can just buy some Igromania (for example); right now the disc that comes with it is full of maps for 3 and 4, and when Heroes 5 is released, there will be maps for them too.
Don't worry be happy. ;)
Счастливее всех босоногий монах.
