The version of the game Heroes of Might and Magic V has been on sale for a long time. Sellers present it as an "alpha version" or even a "demo version" of the game, although in reality, it is one of the first working versions of the game that is more than a year old. At one time, during the development process, this version became accessible to people who leaked it. About a year later, the version was uploaded to the internet, and now it has been copied onto CDs for sale. It is understandable that fans of the series are eager to try out the fifth installment of the game. However, we must warn all potential buyers of these discs that, due to its age, this version does not even provide a rough idea of the game – it contains outdated graphics, a schematic Gameplay, and is practically unplayable due to its instability. Therefore, Nival Interactive urges fans of the Heroes of Might and Magic series not to waste their money and time on this version, which cannot provide either information about the fifth installment of the series or simple enjoyment.

How to distinguish a pirated version from a licensed one:
  • Buy the disc at stores affiliated with 1C:Multimedia. Their lists can be found here http://games.1c.ru/?type=sales [in these stores, 1C guarantees the purchase of a licensed disc]
  • The only online stores affiliated with 1C:Multimedia are ozone and balero
  • The original Heroes of Might and Magic V disc has a blue semi-circular edge on the right + the presence of logos of Nival Interactive and Ubisoft. Inside the box there is a coupon for participation in the "Postcard Promotion".
!!! Nival Interactive guarantees installation of patches and technical support (support) only for buyers of the licensed version of the game. !!!

Plus, the pirated version clearly lacks localization markings. But what can you do, the desire for free stuff takes over. :)
Many people fell for this trick. For example, some of my classmates still believe that Heroes of Might and Magic V has already been released... (well, they have to believe something)!!!!!

Come on, are we kids who buy pirated copies? We're all adults now, and I think we can save up and buy a legitimate version of our favorite game. So, I advise everyone not to even try to get enjoyment from installing a pirated version – it usually wastes a lot of time and nerves, and then we see something like this instead: "This Hydra was attacked by a legion of gremlins" -> "This Hydra was attacked by a legion of gremlin" :):):)
I don't think anyone wants to thank the developers for this mockery of the heroes using the same pirated translator.
А мне Герои Меча и Магии 5 очень даже понравились ...

Well, do pirates even translate it themselves? They use auto-translators, and you know how a computer translates. That's why we see this, and who even needs it... I generally don't know why pirates crack games and translate them so terribly... But if they do it, it means there is a demand, so it all depends on us, dear consumers; if we stop buying pirated copies, they will stop releasing them, but as long as there is demand, we will often see bad translations, along with buggy games from some random company.:(

Well, pirates don't translate themselves; they just re-translate what automated translators produce, and we all know how computers translate. That's why we see what we see, and I don't even know why pirates crack games and translate them so poorly... But if they do it, it means there's demand, so it all depends on us, dear consumers. If we don't buy pirated copies, they'll stop releasing them, but as long as there's demand, we'll often see bad translations along with buggy games from some random company. :(

There's always demand, and it will continue, but if pirates put in a little more effort, the demand would increase.

But I don't understand why you need pirated copies? Do they not work without a disc? Or are they cheaper? A licensed version is the true version of the game; at least updates will install properly! :D :D ;) ;)

But not all licenses allow you to install the English version, while pirated copies have everything you need.

I agree, but tell me, what do you prefer: one good version or two with bugs? Of course, if you're lucky, there won't be any bugs, but the translation will remain as in WhiteSmitt's example! I think few people are interested in such games. And since most people know English, they can buy the English version and play online. And most importantly, without bugs! ;) ;) :D :D :D :D

I'm not saying that a pirated version is better!:)
It's better to have one polished version, of course:D

Yeah, you take the disc out of the box, and it's practically dripping with saliva – the whole Nival team... What a masterpiece!

:) Guys, I have a question:
Why, if the official release date of the game is only May 19th, am I already playing the full version for the fourth day??? And it even has a Russian translation (although it's a bit rough :( )
???

Yes, the translation was done using Promt, that's why it's a bit rough! And you're playing a pirated version!
