can I write about another post by Dow? - PC, PC, PC.
And I'll add - I added him to my ignore list so I wouldn't have to read his posts, but I still sneak a peek from time to time. And every time I regret it:o

No, I probably won't hold back...

The new skeleton archer, converter, and dragon lair look good. The resource depot with the market is also decent.
Skeleton archer? Is the skeleton archer supposed to look like that? And is it normal that the crypt, in high resolution, has lost all of its steps? Is that what they call "HD graphics"? Fewer details, less realism - more blur, higher sharpness? And what about Stronghold? Did they just stick a texture from the second Heroes game on it? Why did it become so ugly? And why are all the buildings so plastic-looking now?

It's fine.
This isn't fine; it's some kind of mutilation. They made it worse than it was. Like going back five years.
There will definitely be fan-made texture mods for the old-school look of cities and units, thanks to the Steam Workshop.
That sounds good, but what are we going to do about the RoE bugs and balance? And the random map generator - will fans also improve that, because it doesn't exist in RoE?

I like it; they did a good job.
Yeah, they did a really good job of destroying the original graphics. I would even say they did it meticulously. They methodically ruined the work of the masters, countless hours of work. Stretch-blur-outline, stretch-blur-outline, carelessly repaint, stretch-blur-outline...

Regarding the images, don't expect or hope that they will be to your liking. It's new, so it's different. Unusual and unfamiliar to the eye.
Will there be other merits? And you can get used to the image. There would have to be something to get used to.

I think the players who are looking forward to this event will be greatly disappointed :D
There are only two merits: support for tablets and playing through a proper server; there is nothing else good about the project. Those who want to defend Ubisoft's graphics should be shown screenshots until:
a) They have an epiphany
b) They start bleeding
c) They create a hole in the screen
Although some creature models have been redrawn and are quite good. For example, the Wyvern or the Hydra.

But, once again, to reiterate: the sprites are worse than they were. I won't even change the example, because it's a very revealing example of poor work.
That's it, I'm done, I'm burned out :smile35:

It’s still too early to panic; we’ll see what happens. It will be on Steam. Steam has many old games that have been remastered in “HD.” And, as a rule, many of them offer a choice between playing the HD version or the classic version.
So, it’s quite possible that the same will happen with Heroes. If you don’t like the HD version, you can launch the game with the old textures. The only downside is that they are making Erathia. Although, if they add random maps, it will be great.

The cartoonish graphics, as I understand it, are in the Ubi style. I personally didn't like it in Heroes 5. I haven't seen other games, but I suspect it's the same.

Heroes13
It will be on Steam.
Well, that's a compelling argument :D A magical place :D where any wish comes true :D
Heroes13

The only downside is that they're making Erathia. But if they add random maps, it will be great.
One year for selling Erathia. Then one year for Armageddon's Blade. And another year for The Shadow of Death. In the end, we'll have to wait about three years for "normal Heroes" :D

Without quick keys, of course :D :D

It would have been better if Ubisoft had paid Baratorch 5,000 dollars. The result would have been 100 times faster and better than anything their entire team of "developers," whose connection to the Heroes series is questionable, could produce.

Let's guess where it "was" and where it "became" click
I can't say it's worse; it's more in the style of the second game. It's suitable for a tablet. But it's made in a more cartoonish style (as if for preschool children).

Yeah, they really did a good job destroying the original graphics. I would even say meticulously.
1000%! And if you compare it to the graphics of The Haven, which are better than the original (although they made the third game a bit darker), then it's 10000%.

I understand that the cartoonish graphics are Ubisoft's style.
One year for the sale of Era. Then one year for The Blade. And another year for The Shadow of Death. As a result, we'll have to wait about three years for "normal heroes."
Well, yes, when something goes wrong for them, they decide to go back.
=Lizard=
It would be better if Ubisoft gave Baratorch 5 million dollars. The result would be faster and 100 times better than from their entire team of "developers," who have a questionable relationship with the Heroes series.
You're wrong. And how will the Ubisoft team survive then? Or will they live off Baratorch and Horn?

Let them make Heroes 7, 8, and so on.

Necropolis looks like it underwent a major renovation. It looks very bad.

The Citadel is the most annoying building for the Necropolis. The rest seems to have been polished up nicely.

The Citadel mages have been redrawn no less poorly, but the Fortress units got off relatively lucky — for them, only the cage stands out.
The quality of the project is uneven, and in many cases it's perfectly possible to put up with the new graphics (after all, we tolerated the equally shoddy Conflux), while in others (like the Necropolis redraws) — only over my dead body, preferably the artist's.

Though, who am I kidding. I'll still buy it like a good little boy:smile32:

Come on, they did a decent job. They patched it up here, touched it up there, smoothed out a few rough edges... It's definitely not worse than it was before. And the fact that it feels a little unfamiliar is no big deal. If they get more money, they'll rework "Armageddon's Blade" and "The Shadow of Death" too...

The point is, why bother reworking a VAZ 2101 first? Just to get to the point of reworking a Kalina later? Does anyone actually believe that anything good will come of this mess?
