Posts from Heroes VII

I watched it, and he didn't say anything useful. From his words, I understood that, figuratively speaking, he's shifting all the responsibility for how the heroes look now onto the members of the shadow council. And I didn't hear a single word about when they will fix the optimization problems and bugs in the game and in the campaigns. Didn't they want to make a bad impression in front of the camera? They already did when they released a raw product. And that stupid, frozen expression on Breton's face when he was asked questions is just awful and annoying.

What's the point of living in the past, waiting for the series to be resurrected as a complete copy of the third installment?

In my opinion, each installment shouldn't try to recreate the atmosphere of the old games, but rather attempt to introduce something new.

What's the point of living in the past, hoping for a revival of the series in the form of a completely copied version of the third installment? These are pointless hopes. In my opinion, each part should not try to recreate the atmosphere of the old one, but rather try to bring something new, something that touches the soul, something that people will remember later, without going beyond the boundaries established by the series. In many of the latest installments, all that the developers are trying to achieve is to recreate the world of the third and, in part, now also the fifth installments, which naturally does not bring results, although it sounds reasonable. Until they learn to distinguish and separate a new game from a pathetic patch for an old one, it will not lead to success.

I bet you a hundred bucks that Bill Gates is thinking exactly the same thing. Let's just forget about all the good things from the old games and make more new stuff. And since we can't come up with anything good new, let's add a bunch of bells and whistles so that all the blonde girls will be impressed. Who cares about functionality.

To be honest, I would be happy with Heroes 3 in a modern wrapper. Nothing better will be invented. Not in this series, at least. And we don't need parodies.

They made one like that, the fourth one...
What was the result?

The fourth installment broke the boundaries established by the series, which is why it failed. Even so, it still found its fans. Of course, many more people will flock to see another clone of the third game; who would argue? The most important thing in this business is to make as much money as possible.

We download Heroes 3 HD and go enjoy the great series of Might and Magic, no questions asked.

If there's no way to find something new and put your soul into your project, then there's no point in even starting it.

But the fifth installment did come out after the third. And I can't bring myself to call it an add-on.
As for the seventh part, I won't judge, as I haven't played it myself, although I have seen quite a few reviews, let's plays, and other things. The only thing I can say is that the project is still very raw, and there are many things that need to be fixed, balanced, and reworked. If the developers can find the strength and desire, perhaps the game will succeed.

Heh, but in the end, compared to the seventh installment, the fifth game actually has very decent graphics, and the 3D models of the cities seem to be technology from the distant future :)
