Posts from Discussion about Heroes 4.
They released some kind of a mess :smile18:. But I somehow managed to enjoy playing THIS game. Then I quickly got bored and it stopped appealing to me. I expected the fourth installment to be something like the fifth.
Then there won't be any new games.
If the developers had gradually prepared such a gameplay change, the fourth game would have been a hit! (I'll explain: in the third game, let's say they introduced simultaneous combat and troop selection, and in the fourth game, everything else remained the same).
They released some kind of bug :smile18:.
I really want to give you a bunch of downvotes for these beautiful words. If you have such an attitude towards Heroes 4, why are you even writing in other threads about Heroes 4? You made your point clear.
1. They released some kind of mess.
2. But I somehow managed to play it with pleasure.
3. Then it quickly got boring and I stopped liking it.
4. I expected Heroes IV to be approximately what Heroes V turned out to be.
I'm crying with laughter reading this :)
In my opinion, if there weren't previous installments, Heroes 4 would be a decent game, but compared to them, it's complete garbage.
First, achieve some results and show them here, and then express your RESPECTED opinion.
P.S. Just the third game... I'm so tired of it.
P.S. 2. Not everyone is like that!!
I would say that the problems started back in the third installment.
After the beautiful storyline in the first, second, and third games, I was disappointed.
In my opinion, the factions and heroes became less balanced. The maps are more monotonous, and there are many minor flaws.
Overall, the atmosphere of the game is completely different.
BUT the third game was still a great game. The fourth game's heroes simply continued the logical system of innovations, and as a result, it turned into a completely different game.
In my opinion, if it weren't for the previous installments, the fourth game would be a decent game, but compared to them, it's complete garbage.
It's just silly to talk about balance... I haven't played the second or first game that much, but the balance in the third and fourth games is much more obvious, IMHO.
As for the storyline, it's a matter of taste; some people like it, some don't.
The atmosphere is quite normal, the music is well-chosen....
Of course, no one is asking you to love the fourth game, but... what right do you have to put it down, providing only your own, purely personal views as proof, or nothing at all...
:mad:

I certainly love Heroes of Might and Magic IV, but dear Zubr and Leshy... please don't attack those who criticize Heroes of Might and Magic IV here. What is the topic called? Exactly. Let them express their personal opinion:)
This kind of thing is getting tiresome.
Please, everyone who wants to, express your opinion, BUT, justify it at least...

However, the third game was still a great game. The fourth Heroes simply continued the logical system of innovations, and as a result, it turned out to be a completely different game.
In my opinion, if there were no previous parts, the fourth Heroes would be a good game, but against their background, it is complete garbage.

If the topic was called "Your purely personal attitude towards Heroes 4", then I would still understand such negative statements, expressed without proof and in the style in which they do it, although even in such a topic it would still look stupid :)
PS. I know many cool players in the third game who have good results in tournaments on it, but they are fundamentally not playing the fourth game. However, I have never seen such pearls about the fourth game from such people here. This suggests that normal players, even if they are good at one of the versions, usually have their heads on straight, unlike some :)
P.S. about the unrealistic units, armor, etc. in Disciples, we don't even need to talk about it)) it looks like the unrealistic units (mostly humans) from the 5th installment, but the appearance is much more beautiful and, most importantly, not cartoonish! =
Since you want it so much, the third installment continued to develop the individualization of each hero. Now they differ in specializations, etc. In the first game, they were just faces with different names and starting characteristics.
Maybe I just couldn't get used to the numerous innovations of the fourth game after the third. No matter how much I play, I just don't like the fourth game.
It's like playing chess with 64 squares and 32 pieces after playing chess in 3 dimensions.
