Yes. This is a full-fledged sequel in the series.

No. This is a pathetic parody of a great game. I fondly remember the third installment.

I want to wait for version 1.3. Because it includes a map editor, and I love creating my own maps!

Maybe... BUT!!!
Don't forget that Heroes 3 was made by EXPERTS who knew this game inside and out, and they worked on it for as long as they needed. Heroes 5, on the other hand, was made by people who weren't particularly knowledgeable about it, and they had a LIMITED amount of time.
By the way, there isn't a single bug in Heroes 5 related to creatures (while Heroes 3 had the "Silver Pegasus bug").

What was this Pegasus bug?

Who made parts 1 and 2? Everyone thinks it was NWC... But that's not the case...

Heroes of Might and Magic V is an attempt to exploit the brand for profit. Outwardly, it looks like a Heroes game, but it lacks the spirit of the original. Van Canningham would never have allowed himself to treat the game's content in this way. It feels like Heroes of Might and Magic V was created solely as a demonstration of technological advancements, forgetting that a game should also have substance – a soul.

Can you name even one game that was designed for a broad audience and released by developers not for profit? There isn't a single game like that in the world. ;)

And no one is forcing you to play Heroes of Might and Magic V if you don't want to; if you prefer, play Heroes of Might and Magic III.

In the very first version of Heroes 3, everything was better than in version 1.0 of Heroes 5!

Yes, probably better with a bunch of bugs on creatures, spells, without assembled artifacts, game crashes at the end of the 4th week when playing multiplayer, and so on. Maybe many people have simply forgotten what Heroes 3 version 1.00 was like?

P.S. And who made Heroes 1 and 2?

NATURALLY, THIS IS A CONTINUATION OF A GREAT SERIES!
As with any game, it has its flaws, but these are temporary, my friends, because the game is still very raw! Please wait for the expansion pack, the map editor, and I think there will be MUCH FEWER pessimists and those who don't like the game!

No, I think this is just a parody! We need to create a game, but not under this label!

Let's think about how long we have to wait for the developers to finish the game?
Answer:
WHO KNOWS! Blunt and clear!!Simply put, when a game falls below all expectations in your eyes, no add-on or patch will raise it for long! Let's remember the third game: add-ons were released for an IDEAL GAME to MAINTAIN THE IDEAL AND ITS DIVERSITY! And the fifth game is like a ceramic piggy bank that is easy to break to take money from us! And the third game is a strong and unremarkable iron piggy bank!

Well, I just can't disagree. If you judge objectively, there are more pros than cons in the 5th installment. Even now, in its early stages, the 5th game already represents something good. And where is Andrey, who so vehemently claimed that the maps in Heroes 5 are very small? How did he then play all night on that map in the campaigns of his friends? Why do I so often see in the chat: "Will you go to the Jubilee?", "Let's duel?", "I'm on the first"? And it's all because even the most ardent anti-Heroes players still play it!

Before the 5th installment, there was the 4th – a disgrace to the Heroes series! But it had its advantages. They introduced skills – which was very good. Considering the failure of the 4th game, they decided to take a small step back to the 3rd game, add the best elements from the 4th, and introduce something new!!!! I think we can conclude: Heroes of Might and Magic 5 is a worthy continuation of the series!!!!!

However, this is an example! And it's relevant. You can call something new if it's an old thing that has been improved! Prove to me that it has been changed for the worse!!!!!!

Joker, have you thought about the fact that if Heroes 3, 2, 4, and 1 had their own servers, people wouldn't even be talking about Heroes 5!

)))He-he... how did we play? I spent three or four hours out of eleven just running away from Snow! Plus, we didn't attack each other relentlessly! That's how it turned out to be eleven hours! And I'm playing it now on the Anniversary Edition just out of boredom, not because I really want to.

That’s exactly what needed to be proven!
