It's a very good theme! I like that it's more original than the third one, and there are many more possibilities and the magic is done in a cool way!

And what's original about it? The fact that the game doesn't resemble the previous ones? If the fourth game had been a shooter, would you also call that originality?

It's simply original in its execution! An interesting addition is the upgrade system and the caravan structures! There hasn't been anything like that in Heroes before... and a shooter is completely out of place! And the animations aren't uniform!

I liked the fourth game because the heroes could act independently; if you wanted, you could gather up to six of them in one army. But in the third and fifth games, heroes without an army are useless. In the fourth game, a well-developed hero could fight a dragon alone (dragon arenas). It was also good that the troops matured every day; you just needed the money. However, in the fifth game, construction doesn't require as much money.

and the Barbarian at level 6 should be able to defeat all dragons, except maybe the Magic Dragon!

Then what is the point of magic resistance?

Just look! At level 6, we won't have time to upgrade everything, but here we can use melee and hand-to-hand combat against the Dungeon faction, and also against the Necropolis... and we're practically useless against the Academy. – Because we still have to get there!

Caravanserais are generally one of the best inventions. And the fact that micromanagement was reduced to a minimum is just great. You could calmly focus on warfare without being distracted by minor details like running to the mill.

In the fourth game, the length of the computer's turn is very annoying:mad:.

The fourth installment does exist, it's just that everyone who seriously played the third game before the fourth one came out doesn't like it. Everyone expected the fourth game to be a continuation of the iconic third game, but that didn't happen, so don't criticize it too harshly; the fourth game has a reason to exist.

I agree! That's exactly it! But the 4th game is just a seed for good ideas!

Heroes of Might and Magic IV is truly a treasure trove of good ideas. I'm annoyed by the castle building system. But the game maps are stunningly beautiful. Call me a pervert, but I think the fourth installment is better than the fifth. I won't play the fifth one until they add snow to the Academy.
By the way, about the heroes – my friend took a castle with a bunch of dragons at a relatively low level (around level 10, I think).

In the 4th game, all the units were drawn – it was great. Just look at the dragons! Nightmares and unicorns – their muscles are so well-defined, they look alive. But in the 5th game, the unicorns are cartoonish, like little fillies.

I agree, fifthly, they last much longer!

For me, Heroes 4 is a three-in-one. It's my favorite game in the series, undoubtedly a revolution (and a positive one at that), and for me, it's also an evolution.
