Posts from Heroes of Might and Magic in a new light! A new version of the game!

Hello everyone! If you stumbled upon this topic, it means you are a true fan of the Heroes series! Times have come when we fans can be added to the Red Book; we are becoming extinct as a species of strategists... Most people don't have time to devote proper attention to this matter... It is sad to hope for the younger generation, who only want to shoot in computer games... This is all just background information... Let's move on to the main part of my story. I and a couple of real Heroes fans decided to create, or rather, bring to life an idea for a separate game based on "Dark Messiah." The most memorable thing about this game is, of course, the first-person perspective, Saref's life, and the twists and turns of his fate. The problem with this game is that it is based on a specific plot and does not allow one to fulfill personal desires, such as going to study magical arts at the Academy of Magic, or even better, learning the power of necromancy... Since we do not possess the ability or intelligence to create our own high-quality product, we decided to make our creation within an already existing, popular world, by modifying the code!!! Such a platform has become... *drumroll* - Minecraft! :smile07: I understand that some may react like this, but it became the most realistic solution for us. The project is currently under development (we have been working on it for over a year, including studying the programming language)! The essence of our project is to create an extraordinary continuation of the cult strategy game, which will be entirely in the first person. At this stage of the project, only two races will be available: humans and orcs! (due to the large amount of work). The main role in our project will be played by CHOICE! You and only you decide your destiny! Maybe you will become a noble knight, or maybe even a KHAN... Or perhaps you are destined to die in the very first battle? Next comes a list of everything we were able to implement at this stage: 1. The platform has been reworked. 2. All necessary elements of the Heroes gameplay and its reality have been added. 3. A special map has been generated, fully outlining the world of Ashan. 4. A system for upgrading player skills has been added, which may be useful for one player. 5. "Mines" have been created - special structures that provide the player with resources under certain conditions. (No screenshots) 6. The first high-quality buildings, human and orc castles, have been built. This list will be expanded over time. We can launch everything we have at the moment in test mode, but we do not have the funds for a quality "machine" that will connect players to each other. I also wanted to stop here; our project will feature real players, i.e., you will be able to compete with them, fight them, or maybe even unite! In the future, we plan to hold tournaments and events. If you are interested in this project and want to stay up to date on developments, you must subscribe to our VK group: https://vk.com/heroesrpg If you would like to help the project financially, with ideas, and personally, i.e., by participating in the implementation of some aspects, write to the main administrator and developer: https://vk.com/skos2002

And what does this have to do with the 5 heroes? General topics about the universe can be found here: here. Or maybe you'd prefer this section?

In my opinion, the platform was chosen poorly: you will need to rework all the models to make them cubic, whereas if you took Skyrim, for example, you could transfer some assets from Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, Might and Magic X: Legacy, and even from the Heroes series itself! Also, most Minecraft players currently play on tablets, and few play on computers (here's a theory about the sum of their ages and desires divided by the capabilities of their guardians). Perhaps there will be fans of such a mod, perhaps I am wrong, because I have a biased attitude towards this game (as my brother said: "I like Minecraft more, and your Heroes are crap, you have to think in it"). If I offended the author, I offer my deepest apologies. I also will not object if the author deems it necessary to delete this message.
