Posts from A place where the Heroes reside.

E3 is approaching, and Ubisoft will be showcasing its new games. There are no games from our beloved universe among the announced announcements, which is not surprising. The series is in stagnation, and there are no new worthy projects on the horizon. Such hopelessness is the worst thing that can happen to a game. The fan base, as many claim, is still strong, but it is dwindling every year for natural reasons, and the influx of new fans is approaching +0 per week. Perhaps it is time for that "huge Heroes community" to remind itself and the franchise?
The plan is simple to the point of absurdity: to rally as many fans as possible from their lairs and collectively attend Ubi's streams, urging them to finally decide the fate of the series (politely, without fanaticism, and trying not to violate Twitch's rules). Will they finally hand it over to be torn apart by a Chinese mobile dragon? Maybe the franchise will pass into the hands of some Microsoft? Or will Ubisoft finally decide to do something on its own?
E3 will serve as a rehearsal before the August Gamescom. The main focus of this campaign is Gamescom. But at E3, we can gauge the situation and gain experience for a more successful campaign in the future.
Of course, we should not expect immediate results, but I want to remind you that in 2020 the series will turn 25. And by this date, Ubisoft will be able to prepare its response, remembering that the series is still remembered and awaited.
What do you think about this?

Ubisoft has nothing to do with HoMM or Might & Magic. "Fanbase," "fan growth," "franchise" – get a marketer and kick him out; normal people are gathered here.

Ubisoft has nothing to do with HoMM and Might & Magic.

What kind of double standards are these? Ubisoft is absolutely involved.

Well, technically, Ubisoft has every right to release anything from a grindy game like "Happy Ogre" to racing games with wolves like "Driver of Might & Magic," or even a slasher like "Prince of Erathia: Shadow of Ironfist," or even allow Bethesda to release "The Elder Scrolls 7: Xeen." What relevance will all of this have to Might & Magic?

I might even play that, it's an interesting idea...

How Heroes of Might and Magic V was created
The story of the collaboration between Nival and Ubisoft.

The legendary Heroes of Might and Magic has always sparked many debates among fans. Everyone loved a particular game in the series: in 1999, they argued about which part was better – the third or the second, and in 2002, with even more enthusiasm, they debated how to approach HoMM IV.

When the domestic studio Nival took on the task of creating the fifth installment of the game, the developers modestly set themselves the goal of uniting the fan Community, so that players would stop arguing and collectively love the new "Heroes."

And, in the opinion of many, Nival succeeded in fulfilling its promise. Let's examine the difficulties the developers had to overcome to achieve this.
