Posts from Which version of Heroes do you like the most?

1 and 2 are just pleasant childhood memories, nothing more:rolleyes:
3 - I started to seriously master the game and spent the most time playing it, so I respect it the most. I really like the division of magic into elements and the composition of spells. The abilities of units, if you're lucky, can dramatically change the course of the battle (this adds intrigue to the combat; for example, double damage for Death Knights). I also like the moderate influence of luck (in the 5th game, they gave it too much importance). Roaming creatures are simply excellent - the variety of dragons, their strength, and the ability to hire them. The world of elementals is very interesting; it was a mistake to remove them in the 5th game. They could have been revised and allowed to continue. Someone has to be neutral and join the fight in case of an imbalance of power in the world of Heroes.
4 - complete garbage (please don't be offended if you disagree), especially the idea of choosing between units. I won't talk about the bad things.
5 - the graphics are certainly good, but the images of the units in the 3rd game were more realistic. But everything flows, everything changes, and we need to move towards the new. The 5th game is a worthy successor to the 3rd. The magic has been reworked in a great way. It cannot be compared to the 3rd; the 5th is simply different and awesome. Many cool new features (skill wheel, runic magic, call of blood and battle cries, hero specializations).
In short, you can probably compare them forever. Personally, for me, the 3rd is the best, but it's outdated and I'm getting tired of it. Therefore, the 5th is my present and future!:smile49:

I see that everyone is enjoying the nostalgia. Indeed, nostalgia often makes us love even the simplest and oldest games. I don't know about everyone else, but I like the old games more than the ones being made now. Nowadays, they seem to focus on graphics for some reason. Is graphics really that important in a game? Absolutely not, in my opinion. The main thing is not to lose the meaning and interest, which both the 4th and 5th parts have lost. I agree that the graphics in the 4th game are embarrassing, as is the game itself. Cartoons. The 5th one is just... I don't know... it's not quite right. A disgrace.
I agree with "So as Jacks" that there's no accounting for taste.

Personally, for me, the third game is the best, but it has become outdated and a bit tiresome.

Oh, how wrong you are! If it were outdated, there wouldn't be tournaments, there wouldn't be topics and debates about the third Heroes game. There wouldn't be fan sites (that still exist), and stores wouldn't be displaying the third Heroes game on their shelves. And I wouldn't be writing all this right now!

I am expressing my personal opinion and do not consider it to be universal. But in general, you are right.

:) and you are right that this is your personal opinion.

That's right! An old game isn't just a game that's been around for a long time; it's a game that's well-made and still has an active player base. I get annoyed when people say, "Why are you playing this old game?". That's a misconception. In my opinion, older games are often better than newer ones. Newer games are losing interest, especially in the case of "Heroes 5".

Knight, what do you think of the campaign storylines in Heroes of Might and Magic V? In my opinion, they came up with a stupid story, then developed it poorly, and now they are trying to come up with a continuation out of thin air!:mad:

No, I usually don't delve into the storylines of games. So I can't say anything about the plot. I want to say that I don't play in campaign mode at all and don't like it. I prefer to play not in campaigns, I don't like completing any missions. I like it when it's just - destroy the enemy and that's it.
Maybe I shouldn't ignore the plot.

I would give it a 100 out of 100! There are no questions here! I even think that the game has surpassed its time. When I first played it in 2000, I said: are there really games like this? I still can't tear myself away from the game, even after 8 years...

10 POINTS!:smile49: Heroes III is the only game in the series that completely captivated me! The graphics allow you to fully immerse yourself in the wonderful world of Heroes and even believe for a while that you are living in it. Although the graphics are 2D, all the images are made very realistically. The scale of the XL maps also deserves attention; I love them. The plot of the campaigns is also engaging, with well-developed stories and logical endings. In comparison, it seems that in Heroes V, the scriptwriters were primarily thinking about how to stretch the story out as long as possible, and it became too drawn out. I love the variety of dragons and other wandering creatures. I also appreciate the complete difference between the factions. I don't play Heroes III much anymore; I'm busy studying Heroes V. But the more I play Heroes V, the more often I want to go back to Heroes III!

I really like the storyline in Heroes of Might and Magic III. And the way the monsters are drawn. Everything is great there.

Even by today's standards, it's a good game...
Sound - around 9.
Graphics - 7.
Gameplay - 10!!! (Many stop playing because they know everything about games, but Heroes...)
And the game is seriously addictive and keeps you engaged for a long time (already for 8 years!!!!!!)
This is a classic turn-based strategy game!!!!

10.
The sound, graphics (for that time), and storyline are magnificent.
The replayability is almost endless. I simply haven't seen other games with SUCH a variety of gameplay strategies. Heroes 3 is the gold standard for gameplay!

Definitely the 3 coolest!

I agree with the people who support Heroes 3: The Shadow of Death. I think it's the most successful version of Heroes, and I never get tired of playing it, especially with a mug of beer!
