It's an online game. They're not exactly famed for their graphics, rather their online capabilities and the gameplay. If the graphics were all flashy the game wouldn't run properly (considering it's all online) and it would be a nightmare.

Guild Wars looks like a good game.

So does Heroes Online.

at first glance i though "Is it possible to portray Erathian Wars in online environment:? my first possibilities said it will be like korean "Three Kingdoms online" (2d sidescrolling MMORPG/Wargame. where you can purchase your companions to fight alongside you. but first. you have to join one of three "Guo"s

now... it's something different! something very fresh, new... and for asian style artworks for eratians (and their adversaries), are better than "Fasion TV favoring themes" of original HEROES 3

for the reasons without UBI symbol is... Jon van Caneghem, Deity of Might and Magic universe. gave permissions to chinese company as he saw better future in the east (than the west) where online gaming community is not yet taken by western superpowers. (i also play a korean online game called GranadoEspada and love it!). and.... innovative "Cash Item" systems developed by korean game deities.

and also.. i guess. it's his plan as he will now run a massive online gaming server (and some sort of "license" for western market.... if he thinks  HoMM3 is the greatest game he created (and others said so) then... he will resurface it on online environment with that...

http://www.trionworldnetwork.com/index_eng.html

and about "Dynamic Worlds" concept... it's good though but... for "Erathian Wars" re enactment. it will be trouble as the wars raged throughout Erathia, some "historical" battle sites are already created by JvC and his crew... (like steadwick), yet... i hope. that some early phase of war (such as the landing of Queen Catherine) will be reandomized. knightly orders are assembled independently, fighing on their own whim. but will assist the Queen in other fronts.

or will the game use Erathian Wars of Liberation as a storyline?

for heroes 5 ... it seems the crew copied JRR Tolkein's universe (especially LotR) alot! every settlements in this game are tightly based on LotR movies! .... Haven based on the mix of Minas Tirith and Helm's Deep. Inferno for Mordor, (i think) Sylvan for Mirkwood. etc...
3rd heroes are more unique. and i want to see movies made out of that game. (use Erathian wars of liberation as background)

a lot of things are based on Lotr because it is such a good book. it is often that people seem similarities between some fantasies and lotr. Warcraft, when the first game came out, people said "its a copy of Lotr". it was the same with heroes1 and heroes3. because of J.R.R tolkien, we now know what a fantasy world has to include in order for it to be a fantasy world.

Neither does the one in the picture. It's it's tail or something, just a bad angle.

I am truly sorry but I believe that HoMM6 will be an RPG just like this web page:HoMM6 will be called: Battle Lord as of now by Russians.

Just look at the Humongous improvements. No more Arch-Angel but, instead, a very powerful spell-casting new unit such an Arch-Mage. This game will also bring back the ever fast and powerful Zealot. The Paladin will be the most powerful swordsman(on foot like in HoMM2) and, the Champion will re-become the all master of horseback riding in the fields of battle.

The Fortress is also back, as the classic Stronghold as well.

Heroes on-line will probably be only for the Republic of China and nothing else. Just another mod for the bushin world of Asia(alone).Like W.o.G for the world-wide game of HoMM3-S.o.D.(English/Russian and all the other major languages of the other continents of this world.

Enjoy admiring the Russian page and, weep at the fate of TBS gaming for a truly uncertain future.

WHAT!?
Was that going to be a Massive Multiplayer Online RolePlaying Game?
An MMORPG should look good, not like that crap.

I would love to see mmorpg style of HoMM.

Here's what strong commercial influence does to people.

MMORPGs look 'good' (aka they're shiny) just to attract more people, other than hardcore RPGers (mostly aiming for the population of people who rarely/never played RPGs anyway).
Some of the best MMORPGs out there have 'crappy' 2D graphics, but that is compensated with awesome gameplay (like Ragnarok Online). Those make less money, but are played only by people who appreciate gameplay over glitter.

Just thought id mention you know, that the battle lord thing is actually a remake of kings bounty. In fact it wasnt called kings bounty until 1C purchased the name from nival (therefore the battle lord thing)
At least i think so. Heroes of might and magic doesnt usually have such generic names. and i think the fifth one didnt have a subttitle there at all

Runescape etc are not mmorpgs, they are just mmos or rpgs.

And... the best mmorpgs do have 3D graphics ;P

Wow, Lotro, AoC, WAR etc.

I think that any game should try to focus more on the Gameplay rather then what it looks like.

Sure, if it looks good that is just a big plus, because it can be easier to play and handle and everything, but the core of the game is the actual gameplay.

I have said this many times in the past, but still some people keep on thinking that the graphics are the most important thing (not talking about you Baklava, just quoting your post so that it is on-topic with what you said )
