Well, not everyone has faded into oblivion. Take, for example, Gem, Sandro, Yog, Crag Hack, Lord Haart, Alamar, Roland, and others. They haven't disappeared anywhere.
What's a shame, though, is that they never created campaigns better than those in the second game.
I'm not talking about the characters the plot revolves around. I'm just saying there were a lot of appealing faces and memorable names. Remember how cool the Warlocks were in the second game! And what happened in the third? We got generic, multi-colored troglodytes and minotaurs who all look the same, like cloned sheep.
I hope that for the sixth installment, Ubisoft will invite developers, designers, and storytellers from the former NWC, including Caningham, and they will return to the old M&M universe (Nival will be developing Ashan in parallel), but they will remove the apocryphal Chronicles from 3DO and their moments from the plot, and therefore also the Reckoning (that is, the world of Axia, which previously appeared, is, like all its events from M&M9 and Heroes 4, not connected to the settlers from Enroth), and the surviving population of Enroth did not relocate there), and they will continue to create a story in the world of Enroth. And then, a new M&M won't be far off. As they say, hope dies last.
Yes... hope dies last, but the word "dies" bothers me.
In the 4th installment, there was a severe imbalance, and the computer ran much slower compared to the 3rd. The heroes were given too much freedom. I played through the Campaigns, and the last missions are completed with one hero + a few creatures against a large number of enemies. Yes, the enemy relies on quantity. Once, I stopped near a castle, and the computer sent three separate attacks against me, after which it left the city unguarded! And this is on Hard difficulty! The developers ended the old world and regretted it. In the 4th installment, Tarnum philosophizes with us, familiar heroes are in the tavern, there are too many references to the 3rd part. Maybe they should have given the old world another chance? On the other hand, Armageddon is an impressive conclusion to a great saga; they fought to the end. And most importantly, they learned a lesson! They fought poorly, and the other half of the planet is still alive!!! In the 3rd installment, you had to hunt down enemies using all available means. And the 5th installment is a good game; it's just that fans of the 3rd part will remain fans of the 3rd part, just like fans of the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th. We will shout at them: "Bad game," and they will respond: "Look at your own." There is no golden mean here, and there can be no talk of uniting fans, as the PR people shouted.
To everyone who says that "The Price of Loyalty is a worthy conclusion to a great saga," I advise you to study the history of Might and Magic. The world of Enroth was destroyed at the most interesting point – during the destruction of the Destroyer. The Chronicles are generally apocryphal. Part 4, unfortunately, is also somewhat apocryphal (due to the events of their Chronicles). In general, see my previous post.
Well, regarding the lore... I have a feeling that these games in the Might & Magic universe, including Heroes of Might & Magic, contradict each other. When I try to connect the lore of Heroes of Might & Magic III to the other games, it just doesn't fit. Maybe I should visit the library.
You should visit http://demilich.250x.com/mm/mm_01.htm, and everything will become clear. It's based on official facts, but Demilich has a few errors in his history (incorrectly described events).

[/U]Here's what Russians love to do! Come in and erase all the tainted past! (And the Heroes universe is so tainted with illogical plots; only the old heroes forever, and the plot is just awful, IMHO, no offense!) I realized what the mistake of all Russians is! We come and want to reject the past! The communists came and started destroying old Russia! The same with Heroes! You can't reject the past of Heroes! Otherwise, they're not heroes! Let Nival write a chronicle based on what's on the forum (I'm naive, of course)))))))) but still))))) and make a campaign where our heroes learn about the past and the clash of blades!!!! Anyway, I've gone too far)))) something got to me, sorry))))
First of all, dear sir, stop talking nonsense about Russians. Secondly, where, besides the Chronicles (which is 3DO, not NWC), have you seen illogical plots and inconsistencies? Learn the history of M&M first, before saying "the plot is crap":mad: :smile06: :smile48: :smile25:
Here, the Russians are doing what they love! They come and want to erase all the rotten past! (And the Heroes universe is so rotten with illogical plots, only the old heroes forever, and the plot is just awful, IMHO, no offense!) I realized what the mistake of all Russians is! We come and want to reject the past! The communists came and started to destroy old Russia! The same with Heroes! You can't reject the past of Heroes! Otherwise, they are no longer heroes! Let Nival write a chronicle based on what is on the forum (I am naive, of course)))))))))))) but still))))) ) and make a campaign where our heroes learn about the past and the clash of blades!!!! In short, I went too far))))))))) something got to me, sorry))))
Well, it's brilliant! If we're going to talk about it, then the first ones to reject the old world were the game creators, blowing everything to pieces! But in general, yes! The Russians reject the past... and try to revive a moth-eaten and dusty game that is 7 years old! There are some inconsistencies here...

Why immediately the Russians?... For example, I don't want to reject the past at all... There are different people, and in any... Yes, anywhere, in any community, you can find people who look at things differently... According to you, did everyone in Russia rejoice in Orthodoxy?... No, there were those who believed in their gods and did not want to give them up... You are comparing two games and want to make them similar... But why, in your opinion, does the new world not have the right to exist?... Why can't Heroes develop in another world?... Why can't there be several worlds?... The essence is the same... After all, Heroes are both Might and Magic... Don't base everything only on the name...

It's just that when a title is borrowed, there should be a logical connection. If the developers of the second Fallout made a game about the ancient Incas, they wouldn't be understood. The same applies here. If you borrow a title, you should also borrow everything else. This is simply a matter of basic decency.
It's just that when a name is borrowed, the connection should also be logical. If the developers of the second Fallout made a game about the ancient Incas, they wouldn't be very well received. The same applies here. If you borrow a name, you should also borrow everything else. This is simply a matter of basic decency.
in general, you are right... and I even agree with you... to some extent...
