Posts from What is your opinion about Heroes IV?

Every installment of Heroes has its flaws (as does any other game). For Heroes 4, these include hero imbalance (I emphasize imbalance, not just their presence on the battlefield), the lack of hero specialization (the initial individuality is lost, and as a result, favorite heroes and their stories become less important, which diminishes the spirit of the heroes), and the Castle of the Dead (demons and undead have different ideologies, although their goals may be the same). There are, of course, other features that, in my opinion, spoil the game, but they are not as significant. But despite all this, Heroes 4 is still Heroes, and I consider it worthy and interesting, and I can only feel sorry for the classic fans of Heroes 3. Because of their own stubbornness, they are missing out on a lot of enjoyment from a good game!

It's difficult to write a truly interesting sequel to the third game, and as someone rightly said, only the person who wrote the third game can do it, or those who first fully understand the third game and then write everything from scratch, following the strict rules of the third game... I'm not very sure that such people can be found.

John Van Caneghem sued them for using his works.

"Ubi insisted on his non-participation in the project" - that's one of the reasons I don't like them...

It would have been good if they had kept him, but Ubisoft said that he refused himself, supposedly he had a relapse, although his scenarios were good. Of course, it's a pity for Emilia; they could have healed her, and I feel sorry for Magnus; why did they put cockroaches in his head? But apparently, he asked for too much money.
