I didn't mean shooters anyway. If you compare it to them, it's completely different... and games like shooters only rely on graphics, so it plays a more important role there... I don't like those kinds of games; I prefer strategy and RPGs, and I compare it to them.

Grayness? I would call it something else. In Heroes of Might and Magic III, it wasn't cartoonish; instead, it resulted in a great game. Or take Disciples; it has "grayness," which only makes the game better. It's darker and looks more serious, rather than a childish fantasy world. IMHO.

Be strong. Believe

I don't know. The graphics aren't great, but it's not a shooter, it's a strategy game. And as for the "cartoonish" style, wouldn't it be boring if everything was in gray tones? No, this style suits the game perfectly (in my opinion).
Well, I wouldn't say so. The upcoming Disciples 3 promises to be in gray tones. I've seen the screenshots, and I personally like it. And even if you take the game "Dark Messiah" and compare the zombies from it with the zombies from the 5th installment... Okay, let's not start an old conversation, especially since it's off-topic. But I still hope that the 6th installment will have darker tones and truly impressive demons, undead, and evil and ugly orcs, like in Tolkien's works. And I hope that the 6th installment will be rated at least 16+. Because of the creatures and some brutality.
O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.

It seems that the sequel to Dark Messiah will be about freeing demons and fighting them. Fabrice Cambounet mentioned that they are planning to awaken Asha. It's a shame that it won't be original. So, in Heroes 6, there will probably be a new section of the story. I hope they return to the old universe.

I also want to share my opinion on this debate. Part 5 is not a failure; it's a very good commercial project. In 10 years, Heroes 6, 7, and 8 will appear. A new, young generation will love parts 6, 7, and 8, while current fans of part 5 will say, "Well, it's okay, but nothing is better than part 5." Regarding part 6, I don't think there's any need to rush it. Let's see what "Blizzard" is up to – they only recently remembered "StarCraft 2." And before that, they were doing well with "WoW." Ubisoft could also release something "massive, modern, and online," and it would keep them going for at least two years. Look at part 5 – it's designed for multiplayer. That's why it has this crazy skill wheel (which makes my head spin) and a simple plot. For me, the best are parts 2 and 3. I don't need this skill wheel and flashy graphics.

Well, I wouldn't say so. The upcoming Disciples 3 promises to have a more muted color palette. I've seen the screenshots, and I personally like it. And even if you compare the zombies from "Dark Messiah" to the zombies from the 5th installment... Okay, let's not start that old conversation, especially since it's off-topic. But I still hope that the 6th installment will have darker tones and truly impressive demons, undead, and evil, ugly orcs, like in Tolkien's works.

No, you won't get rid of me that easily! What does Dark Messiah have to do with it, which, as far as I know, is a first-person shooter? Arandor was in the third game... How can I put it without offending the fans... Well, it had two-dimensional sprite graphics, if that even qualifies as computer graphics. Comparing it to the fifth game is completely inappropriate.

Well, that's what I meant when I said it. And what does this have to do with the universe, rather than the graphics – how can you compare the zombies from that game to the ones in Heroes? After all, Dark Messiah is an action game.

But it can't be compared to the old Ashan universe. I agree with everything else.

Vaishan, for those times, the graphics were good for Heroes 3. But we're talking about something else... it's not cartoonish; it has a different atmosphere. Not everything is so bright and colorful. There are cartoonish ones among the older games too, so age isn't the issue here.

People, you should never assume anything in advance, because you might think a game will be amazing, but then it turns out to be...!!! Of course, it would be great if they released a sixth installment in the series (while retaining all the best elements from previous games), but it's unlikely to run on many computers, as technology keeps advancing. In my case, I doubt it would even start! But who knows...

Well, the hardware in our computers doesn't stay the same either;)


I agree, but you need money for new hardware, and good money at that, plus money loves to be spent!! :) :) :)

Yeah, of course. No matter how hard you try, they're never around when you need them most... But what can you do about progress? It's progress, after all...

If I were a moderator (:rolleyes:), I would delete all the posts. I repeat: this topic is not for discussing the games, but for any information related to the release of new installments in the series. Please create a new topic.

Well, in that case, you need to write the topic title correctly :) ;)


Барон "Vampires"

Отдай свои прошлые сны,
В сомненьях себя обрети,
В бешеном танце душа кружится!
Не думай, что будет потом,
Здесь и сейчас мы живем,
Стань хоть на миг сам собой, слышишь!
