You'd better check one of the HoMM V Forums (Altar, Temple). You would getter more feedback than you could handle in there.

Awesome game with Tote, Very fun and some generally improved cutscenes and gameplay.
Definatly worth playing. I think the game is much better then heroes 3(original). But maybe thats just because i played heroes 5(original) first. Who knows?
Anyway heroes 3 SoD is only "superior" to the original. I think that with the last expansion the game is qutie marvelous. Being almost as good in gameplay and campaigns and making it slightly better with good graphics.

Heroes 3 is almost a legend already. The most popular of Heroes-series?

@ DarkShadow

With Wog addon, Heroes III is great

Heroes V failed, even I like that game, still is third on my list after Wog and Heroes IV(Equilibris and my own version and without modesty).

H5 is leagues over h3 atm. Wog helps a bit but brings total chaos in the game and i don't like that.

H3 was on the throne for long time, but with arrival of TotE, h5 took that spot.

Everything written is just my humble opinion of course....

I just find Heroes III to be far more polished, playable and thus superior to Heroes V.  I am no multiplayer addict so I might be a little biased, what with the huge lapse in single-player support brought on by HV.

I'm not talking about multiplayer games, I talking about single and hotseat...Wog rules...You have plenty of options to choose and I like to play this game like a RPG.

Maybe is me, because I'm in Wog Team since the beginning, but still, when I play with my scripts and face in 5th month dragons with 2500 health ...is like an RPG for me and my friends and many more...

About multiplayer, TOTE is more popular, but requires huge resources and I have quad CPU and still...that is the reason that I gave up on Heroes V for now

So, Heroes III Wog, then Heroes IV are my favorite games...

Don't worry Heroes III Wog  3.59 can get a better graphics..are rumors ...oops

Stay away from Heroes 5, nothing there is better then in Heroes 3 or 4. The only thing Heroes 5 has got is the 3d graphics, and of course better multiplayer options, but who cares when the gameplay is rotten?

Heroes 5 is a bad copy of Heroes 3, nothing more.
Heroes 4 is the greatest strategy game of the five.

For years I was a die hard H3 fan.  I did not like nor enjoy h4.  Couldn't pry me away from playing it.  H5 came out, and it was not even as fun as h4 for me.  So I continued to play h3.  HoF came out, a bit better, better then h4 (for me), but I still prefered h3.  Then ToTE came out.  H3 has taken a back seat.  Of course I am not a WoG fan (no offense meant to those who are or to those who worked on it).  ToTE is a lot of fun.  That is just my opinon however.

What I missed the most in Heroes 5 was:

-Treasure hunts (Couldnt find a single map with a treasure)
-More sea and ships maps
-Hero classes, not just one type of hero per faction
-The graphics, I don't like the Super Hero cartoony look of the units in Heroes 5

Have any of these things improved in the expansions?

I also miss the way heroes are implemented in the armies in Heroes 4, but thats of course impossible to do anything about in Heroes 5.

Although H4 has some good issues which are missing in H5 I one of the reasons to still prefer H5 just because it misses some bad features form H4

as a lover and addict of multiplayer games & on behalf of those who don't care for single player nor hotseat, Homm3 & WoG were both the ultimate, greatest end product of M&M.  i also abhor the childish, cartoon-like, superhero graphics of todays games.  gamemakers today need to focus more on bringing the chaos and imbalance to the game:  the more, the merrier.  we need more creators like you.  i personally thank you for WoG.
