Posts from Did the graphics of Heroes 3 not deter you from wanting to play? Auto-translated

I took the time to visit the Non-Existent Heroes website, read a bit, and I'll say this: the easiest way to elevate yourself is not to achieve something, but to denigrate your competitors. However, only those who have created something, achieved something, have the right to do this, not those who don't exist.

The pictures and the idea are interesting, but...

I still value HoMM-3 SoD above all else, even more than the 6th installment. Although, I still have to explore the 6th game more...

Creating a game with народные деньги (crowdfunding) - I don't believe it!

In games, I value not the graphics, but the captivating gameplay and interesting plot the most...
I don't care about the graphics!
P.S. HoMM3 forever!:smile41: :smile41: :smile16:

Graphics are far from being the most important factor; the gameplay, story, and atmosphere of the game are much more important.

graphics aren't the most important thing.
this is old-school, after all.
when it came out (in '99), I got a disc with the English version. and that's how it started...
I played for nights on end, and slept in school.
basically, it's the same now. I play at night, and sleep at work...
when will I finally grow up...?

when will I finally grow up...?

Never! :D :D :D And not just you!

Everyone is so enthusiastically claiming that graphics aren't important, that they don't care about graphics. Am I the only one who loves the third installment of Heroes of Might and Magic, among other things, precisely for its graphics?

No! In both the third and fourth installments, the graphics define the atmosphere of the game. And although the gameplay mechanics are well-developed, without the graphics, the game would get boring faster. It's like going hunting in a forest or at a shooting range - the difference is huge, even though the shooting is the same.

And what about the graphics in the 6th game? ))

I love the third game for its atmosphere and code, and the fifth game for its 3D graphics, but I want to execute the sixth game and its developers in the best traditions of the inquisitors for ruining the game!

Thirdly, in the third, fourth, and fifth installments, the graphics perfectly matched the game. And if, for example, we were to replace the graphics in the third game with something more modern and better, it would be a completely different game, and it would be worse than the original, despite the technical superiority. But in the sixth game, the graphics were the worst of all; the textures and models were either pale and rough or looked like gaudy Christmas ornaments, fragmented into many bright pieces. They added improved detail and a lot of special effects, so what? Did it help the game?

No, of course, I've never been put off by it; what kind of questions are these? On the contrary, I like the game's "colorful" and fairytale-like visuals.

Let's start with the fact that Heroes 3 is a game from the 90s. As old-school gamers (true game connoisseurs) know, the 90s were a time when many excellent games were released. Developers put their heart and soul into them. Let's also remember Heroes 2, Fallout, Crusader: No Remorse, C&C, Doom 2, Descent. This list could go on and on.
Developers didn't focus on super graphics (although, to be fair, the graphics in all the games mentioned were quite decent for that time). Instead, they focused on creating an atmosphere through gameplay, plot, video cutscenes, and, importantly, sound design. Can any of us say that we haven't hummed tunes from 90s games? I still have compositions from C&C (on the prowl), Crusader (main theme, resistance), and Heroes 2 (battle 1, 2, 3, rampart) on my phone.
I'll digress a bit. Modern developers seem to be losing their way due to the abundance of modern graphical capabilities. Everyone has forgotten about gameplay, atmosphere, and high-quality sound design.
But there are companies like Firaxis. They deserve praise. They made a very successful attempt to revive XCOM, and they succeeded. Why? Because the old Sid said that their company sacrificed, for example, high-quality multiplayer and graphics in favor of a high-quality single-player experience.
