Posts from Heroes 6 - Discussion

Well, they certainly can't compare to your work.

Just some nitpicking.

Well, changing the appearance of an Orc (which happens in every installment) is one thing, and replacing an Orc with a different unit is another... there's a difference, isn't there?

The spirit isn't in the form of troops and castles, IMHO.

They also have their own history, which begins with the Ironfists (although I don't remember the first one very well) and continues in all four parts...

Moreover, the Orcs now live in the steppes, the mages in the desert, etc.

It's better to not connect anything at all than to connect it like that.

It's like making a movie, and then making a sequel to the movie, but replacing the characters, the plot, the history... hehe, you could turn Terminator into Transformers that way) there are robots in both.

The spirit isn't in the form of troops and castles, IMHO.

Yeah, and again, like in the third one, this hero is a loser, he's useless, but this one is cool, and this one is a total cheater, he should be banned. They stepped on the same rake again, IMHO.

1-3 were original. They had their own world, their own ideology. In the fifth one, none of this exists. Just ordinary fantasy. That's the proof.

P.S. I'm ending the discussion here, and I advise you to do the same.

This has nothing to do with spirits.

As for the story, the campaign for Gem was in Breath of Death, and before that there was Sword and Might... Did you play the Campaign of the Revival of Erathia?)) The intro even tells about Catherine leaving Enroth and returning to Erathia... or is this not considered "mentions" and a connection between the parts?

I didn't understand anything about Jela and Tarnum.

P.S. yes, the world is different, but why mention heroes from other worlds (Kreg and Sandro)?) At least in these parts there is a connection and a single story.

For example, Miv and Axel. The first one only has enhanced speed, and the second one has enhanced paladins or knights of Isabel.

In the 4th game, Chaos has a Death Tactician.

Life... oh, what a cheating resurrection!!

In Heroes of Might and Magic 4, the Chaos faction can buy a Death Knight, who has the Tactics skill.

Vis, anything could have happened. If Heroes of Might and Magic 3 has at least some elements from Heroes of Might and Magic 2, then Heroes of Might and Magic 5 has absolutely nothing from the old parts... (we're not counting units and gameplay, because Heroes of Might and Magic 3 is more similar to it in that regard).

I remember the story about Tarnum; you just wrote it in a clumsy way.

Vis, it's a completely new world, with a new history, etc., but for some reason, "old" heroes are known and remembered there...

Part 2 (and 1 and others) and the spirit are a single story, a connection between these worlds that is well-written and thought out. All these parts have a common beginning.

If something is unclear again, maybe you should go play the previous parts or read the lore, or I don't know... we're not in kindergarten, and I'm not a teacher answering children's questions.

Are you sure that a Paladin will even be included, considering he didn't really fit in after parts 1 and 2?

Well, in the sense of a swordsman (also an armored warrior, also a crusader).

And I was just thinking about something else. The difference in graphics in the Heroes series. With almost every game release, it changes drastically.
There are two parts with good pixel graphics, one with a slight bias towards 3D (like volumetric lighting), isometric view, and pure 3D.
The 6th game, if it comes out, will, of course, also be in 3D, which means... it will hardly differ in terms of graphics from the 5th game? I think so:smile38:
