Not better, but different. The tactics are different, the development is the same. It's not a continuation. Otherwise, it's a pity.
Actually, it's a pity for the bee. Right?;)
Not a pity at all. Go to Heroescommunity, chat with players who have played the third, fourth, and fifth installments for several years. Any of them will tell you that "Heroes 4 is better" and "more strategic." The only decisive drawback of the fourth installment is that it takes more time to play than the other parts.

CTPAHHuK, no, not anymore))) In the third game, restarting takes 3 hours O_O. In the fourth game, there are few, only 1 miserable restart on the first day)).
What's the point of scripts when there's no way to properly draw the landscape?! It's not interesting to play on square maps! And here, the fourth game (and even the third) loses to Heroes of Might and Magic 2, but they still made the third game balanced, while in the fourth, they focused on scripts. And here's the result - the worst map editor. You can't change the resolution, there's no scrolling, and the scale is the same! What's the point of it? Except maybe for modifying existing maps.
You can create a landscape. Maps on grass turn out to be very beautiful. This is no longer the square, separate forest of the third game, but something more cohesive. In general, even despite some limitations in resources, thanks to imagination, you can draw very beautiful things.
The only decisive drawback of the fourth game is that it takes more time to play than other parts.
I would rather note the too strong emphasis on playing through heroes:) But here, it's a matter of taste...

Не думай, что будет потом,
Здесь и сейчас мы живем,
Стань хоть на миг сам собой, слышишь!

The main thing is that the fourth is better than all!
Not an indisputable statement, to put it mildly :p
In the fourth game, there don't seem to be any random cards. Only fixed maps (correct me if I'm wrong, it's been a while since I played). In the third game, even when playing with fixed maps, you don't have to restart very often. And the offline mode is better in the third game :p

Well, as everyone knows, it depends on the map. Maps can be equally popular, but on one of them, we play with a butterfly and 6 or even 7 heroes, while on the other, we play with 3 or even 2 heroes and monsters of levels 2, 3, and 4, or sometimes all levels. Superheroes and Tron. Fatal controversy and PS. Order wards and Bizzaro. And so on. You know it yourself.

Dirty_Player, yes, there is. Not sure how to name it correctly... Bizzaro comes to mind right away.

CTPAHHuK, you could upload Superheroes, Fatal Controversy, and Order Wards somewhere.

The fourth installment of Heroes seemed like a misstep in the series.

That's not quite right. It's just different, but not any worse. Although I personally play WOG more, I still remember the fourth game fondly. Have you tried playing it, or did you turn it off after watching and never play it again?

4 is naturally worse than 3, but it's still interesting!

From the Heroes of Might and Magic series, I liked parts 2 and 4 the most.

Part 4 is more interesting than part 3, in my opinion. I especially like the magic and the tactical techniques based on it. I used to think it was a failure, but the silliest thing is that I didn't think about it thoroughly enough after getting to know the game!
The only downside, and it's not just a downside, it's a whole bucket of tar, is the AI level...

Yes, hurray for the fourth game!!!! Of course, I generally like the Heroes series, all parts except the first one, but the fourth one is always the best:smile03:

Why look for something better? For me, the second game evokes nostalgia, the third is almost the same, and the fourth and *In the Wake of Gods* are truly great! It's a very difficult choice.

All parts of the *Heroes* series are good, and we shouldn't forget them! Especially the first ones!

I started with the second game, and some people started with the very first... I only regret that I couldn't get the first *Heroes*, but when I play the fourth game, that regret completely disappears! :smile07: :smile44:
