It looks suspiciously similar to Heroes 5. And will the castle look the same as in the picture?

The main topic for discussing Necropolis. All available information about Necropolis can be found here.
O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.

I think that this slight change to the ancient Egyptian style is quite enough. They've also made some changes to the "zoo," probably affecting three creatures. That's good too. Necromancy now works during battles – an unprecedented (and I don't think I'm mistaken?) phenomenon in the series, but it's a good idea. For now, I like the direction the developers are taking, especially when it comes to Necropolis.

Moderated: OFF-TOPIC in the message

A. If you increase the graphics, you increase the system requirements. Who needs that?)

No, actually, everything in HoMM 6 – except for the reduced resources, but maybe this will speed up matches from "five days at the computer, the faint-hearted surrendered" to more reasonable speeds? (Comparing it to the third game, yes) – I really like it.
And, yes, I anticipate the Death Knights – according to legend, they were exiled, so we'll see what they did to deserve it)))

Hmm.
There won't be Death Knights.
But, by the way, the idea of replacing the outdated bone dragon with something else is definitely a good one. Because this "dried fish with wings" (© my friend) as a monster to beat is a bit annoying.

I don't like the new Necropolis castle. They added towers, as if it were a space strategy game (no wonder people are reminded of the Zerg).

Be strong. Believe

Yes, I don't like it either; the Egyptian style doesn't really appeal to me, but I do like the creatures. The spider instead of a dragon suits the Necropolis faction, as Ashah isn't a dragon.

Personally, I didn't like that they removed the bone dragon. It would have been better to leave it and make it stronger. I also didn't like the Necropolis style; the third game had the most stylish Necropolis. The graphics are good, though; everything is well-drawn, and I'm curious how it will look in motion. The new special effects and spells are also interesting. But I don't like the overall style. I also want to say a few words about the interface. It's somehow unpleasantly primitive. Instead of trying to incorporate something from Gothic and making everything baroque, they decided to create these primitive drawings with windows. Still, I'm eagerly awaiting the sixth game, at least because of the graphics, because in the fifth game, the Necropolis castle was drawn terribly.

The emphasis on the ancient Egyptian style is more of an attempt to create something different from the usual Necropolis faction (in the third part, there was essentially a division into states, not into races, which I liked), which is used quite often in various fantasy settings.

The Necropolis castle in Heroes 5 was still more aesthetically pleasing. The Gothic style suited it better than this one. And the creatures are interesting. The only question is, in the Russian version (by the way, it is planned), will these "ghouls" still be called that, or will they come up with something better? The spider-girl doesn't evoke much affection; a blobfish would have been better :D.

Ghoul is a perfectly normal name ( http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%93%D1%83%D0%BB%D1%8C_%28%D1%84%D0%BE%D0%BB%D1%8C%D0%BA%D0%BB%D0%BE%D1%80%29 ). But nothing can be said about the Russian version yet; the localization team hasn't even been named.
The spider girl doesn't evoke much sympathy; a dried fish would have been better.
In my opinion, it's an original unit. In any case, the developers want to introduce something new; in the fifth installment, the Necropolis bestiary, excluding one unit, copies the one from the third game.
And what about the plot? Will it really take place before the events in "Heroes 5"?
Absolutely.
And what is the starting date of the events?
Approximately 400 years before the events in Heroes 5. The exact year has not yet been announced. In the fifth game, the events take place in 969.
And when did the Necromancers have the state of the Silver Cities? Is this not a mistake?
It's not a mistake. The events of the game take place before the Necromancers were exiled from the Silver Cities. For some time, they did indeed share them with the mages.
O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,

The spider girl is an original creation for Heroes, but overall, it's a rather generic creature that is often found in games featuring dark elves.

Original, though a bit creepy. As for the Ghoul, I've never heard of it before :(. That's why I asked; maybe it has another name? And by the way, when I hear the word "Ghoul," I immediately remember the song "Aram-zam-zam, Aram-zam-zam; Ghuli-ghuli-ghuli-ghuli-ghuli-ram-zam-zam" :D.

Too bad :(. When will the Unicorn Empire be released?

It's not a mistake. The game's events take place before the necromancers were exiled from the Silver Cities. For some time, they did share them with the mages.
So, I just didn't read the history carefully enough.

It turns out that the only thing I don't like is the plot. I hope that Heroes 7 will still tell the story of my favorite heroes.
The screenshots look very beautiful, and the graphics are excellent. The only thing is that the new Necropolis units look a bit creepy.

What does it mean there's no localizer :eek:??? Does that mean there won't be a licensed Russian version :eek::(?

It seems like everything is getting a bit gloomier with the release of Heroes 6...
