Yes, that's not what I meant! I meant that the add-on might change HOMM 5 too much, almost beyond recognition. Which isn't very desirable! I'm happy with everything as it is!

I, on the other hand, would like the add-on to change more things: the editor, the map generator, new factions, new map sizes, new monsters and textures, to fix all the bugs, and that's about it, I don't think I forgot anything:rolleyes:

My impression of Heroes 5 is that there's still a lot to do (in the sense that it's not quite finished).

I want them to do something about the map view, because it can be annoying, especially in the Dungeon:mad:

You’ll get used to it. But I like the idea of retro heroes.

Well, what can you do? There's always a fly in the ointment...
There's nothing that can be done about the camera rotation, as 3D brings a lot of complexities. And if you make low walls, it won't be interesting to play. But in general, get used to it, gentlemen. Because it's unlikely that anyone will return to 2D.

For example, tell me how an add-on can change the heroes to the point of being unrecognizable? I, for one, can't imagine it... And we're actually straying from the topic...
After playing almost half of the campaign, I have the best impressions of the game... with a few minor exceptions. The heroes are great!

Example: Heroes of Might and Magic III == Heroes of Might and Magic III½ (WOG). The game changed significantly. In this case, the changes were for the better, but what if in our case, they turn out to be for the worse?!
P.S. No doubt, the game is great!

So, are you suggesting we "WOG-ify" the 5th installment?
I'm not against it (almost in favor), but... I know what might come out of it, and just thinking about it makes me feel uneasy.

Some ideas can be taken from WOG. For example: the ability to upgrade creatures 3 times... Even if not all, but at least level 7 creatures!

By the way, have you noticed that some ideas are actually stolen from WOG: like the Sphinx with a riddle...

Yeah. Only in Heroes 3, you had to write the correct answer, while in Heroes 5, there are answer options. For example: what is the devil's favorite resource (in Heroes 3, I would have answered - ore, but in Heroes 5, the correct answer is sulfur). Plus, you can choose the prize for the correct answer yourself (experience, money, or an artifact). And if you answer incorrectly, you will fight yourself!:D

Yeah, they copied it, but who copied from whom???
The sphinx was definitely in the second Heroes game, and I think it was in the first one too.

Well, since they combined the third and fourth games, they copied it from Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Restoration of Erathia.

Who cares? In Heroes of Might and Magic 5, the Sphinx doesn't resemble any of the previous versions! And besides, we've strayed from the topic.

Why did they leave? Does it feel like they just copied everything – is that also an impression you get from the game?

As a fan of Heroes 2 and 3, I can confidently say that this sequel is a true revival of the Heroes of Might and Magic series. Heroes 4 wasn't really Heroes, and I think most people agree on that. I actually didn't expect anything similar to the original Heroes. I bought it purely out of curiosity. But when I started playing, I just couldn't stop. Of course, it has its flaws, but none of them are significant. The developers have given this magnificent series of games stunning graphics. There are also some drawbacks in the graphics, but its positive aspects overshadow them. However, it can be said that they have something to work on and that the developers have created a really good foundation for continuing this legendary series.

In short, I want to say: Heroes are back and will soon be
