Posts from What were your expectations for Heroes 4?

Yes, regarding harpies, it’s not nonsense, and the game is actually good!

But why are they so suitable for the fourth-level Barbarians!

I’m saying that they are suitable and are being actively developed!

Life, order, and chaos look somewhat reasonable! The rest is just utter nonsense!

Barbarians, in my opinion, are not at all absurd and fit the natural environment!

Okay, Barbarians are tolerable! But nature! Only Elves and Fairies! The rest are just beasts! Although tigers can talk (what nonsense!).

No, it's fine... they have Druid heroes... they can talk to animals... that's how they "convinced" them.

Why aren't there centaurs, pegasuses, and ents?

There are no Centaurs or Pegasuses in the fifth game either!

The laws of the market: if a project aims to revolutionize genre X, then:
1) If it's a shooter, there will be more monsters per square pixel and more weapons to destroy them.
2) If it's an action/RPG (apparently, it's not profitable to release regular ones), there will be more loot and perks, better stats, and more monsters.
3) If it's an RTS/TBS... it's easier with RTS – just put 250,000 units on the screen and enjoy it, but with TBS...
Everyone was waiting for a revolution from the fourth installment, but they didn't know what it would take. That's why it turned out to be an "unsuccessful experiment (I hope there are no mistakes in this word)."

I would have liked better graphics, but also a new storyline. But still, they didn't manage to achieve anything.

As for me, the fourth game turned out well, and those who disagree just don't understand!

Damn, this poll is pointless. I personally expected that the fourth installment would be an upgrade and an add-on for the third game.

Dude, this poll is pointless. I personally hoped that the fourth installment would be an upgrade and an add-on for the third.

I don't see the point in what you wrote. There are still a lot of upgrades and add-ons being developed at a high level. And each new installment should primarily bring its own individuality, in addition to the spirit of the Heroes series.

I played the second game for a long time, then the fourth... Then back to the second. ))) I loved both parts immensely. I couldn't stand the third part: because of the terrible graphics and design (as it seemed then), the silly number of castles, and the overloaded interface. But I got used to it over time. And I also accepted, understood, and loved the third game. )))
The fourth game is definitely a worthy game. And I only expected one thing from it - the magic of heroes (not in a narrow sense). ))) I wasn't disappointed.

The best music. The right balance of castles. And completely appropriate innovations regarding the heroes. The only downside is the not-so-successful campaigns. But the latter didn't significantly affect the overall impression. )))
