Posts from What is your opinion about Heroes IV?

My opinion about the fourth game is the same as most fans of the third game.
Yes, it's convenient to have a hero move around the battlefield so that units can be without a hero and the hero can be without units, but that's not what Heroes is about! It's something else.

It's something different – HEROES V
There's no continuation of the Heroes series.
There are no familiar characters.
There are no familiar creatures, i.e., there are, but they are completely different.
And so on.
P.S. There's no King's Bounty.

Something else – that’s HEROES V
No continuation of the Heroes series
No familiar characters
No familiar creatures, i.e., they are there, but they are completely different
And so on
P.S. No Keneghem

In my opinion, it's something else—it is specifically the Fourth ones—this has been said hundreds of times!

Fourth — also a new world, different creatures, different races. The only thing I consider "rule" (great) in Fourth is the editor — that's where you can really let loose.
Fifth is something else compared to Fourth: they removed the hero from combat, the creatures look like creatures from Third...
Moreover, none of the Heroes games had a backstory, but the Nival people are carefully developing one.

Yes, especially since the same world was used in Heroes III and Heroes IV. And NWC and 3DO came up with the perfect plot: the world began to crumble (what kind of nonsense is that?), and everyone was saved by fleeing in disgrace. And after that, they created SOMETHING that caused the world to immediately collapse, and the prophet-UBISOFT arrived and created a new world.
In Heroes III, is the Hydra a sausage like in Heroes IV?
In Heroes III, is the Minotaur a naked brute like in Heroes IV?
In Heroes III, are the Nagas Japanese with swords?

Compare the heroes: take Ajit (a Chaos hero), for example. In Heroes III, he was a lord, but in Heroes IV, he's a thief?! Ivor is a monk, and in Heroes IV, he's a priest (a lower status). And how can Heroes IV be considered a continuation of the series?
BUT: If Heroes IV had been released under a different name, it would have been more successful, IMHO.

Why did the world start to collapse?
And I wrote about the monsters because you claimed they were identical (in Heroes III and Heroes V):mad:
And I didn't say that they were similar in Heroes III and Heroes IV:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: And the Minotaur in IV is better than in V:cool: The Hydra isn't a sausage in the fourth game, but it is in the fifth:rolleyes: :rolleyes:
The Naga is normal!!!:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Swamp + Dungeon + Inferno = CHAOS? Why didn't they mess with Order or Humans instead?

Ivor - monk, there - priest

In the third game, is the minotaur a naked bull-man like in the fourth?

Chaos. And they all perished.

Specialization in elves. A ranger in both 3 and 4.

We also have the Might and Magic series games. In the dungeons of Nighon, there were exactly those naked beefcakes, but it's hard to call them weak monsters. The core of the army in both 3 and 4.
