Heroes Anthology
Hey guys, I've recently started reviewing all the Heroes of Might and Magic videos, collectively, in a series I've titled the " Heroes Anthology ".
I was just looking for some feedback, one of the jobs I'd really like one day, is to review video games preofesionally, so why not share this stuff, and try to improvve?
I've done up to Heroes 4, so far, and am in process of making part 5.
Anyway guys, tell me what you think!

Watching them now. Love that English voice. I really want to go to England one day. 
Now I've noticed that with your first video, there are times where you pause. I would suggest trying to find other things to say where those breaks are. It would make your reviews a bit better imo. Also, try to decrease the microphone volume a little bit so it doesn't distort because of the loud volume.

Hehe no problem. Watching the 2nd video now. It's a lot more improved than the first video. And HOMM2 is my favourite game out of the HOMM games.

Wow, I love these reviews, very good work. The plot summaries are great (even though they're kinda quoted from Wikipedia - I actually wrote the Morglin Ironfist and Heroes IV parts there myself  )
Btw Emilia and Gauldoth do come into contact with each other, sort of... but that's just nitpicking. You've done great work

The audio is a bit messy now and then, but its good, its good. There is a very professional feel to your reviews and makes them stand out in the crowd from all of the poeple who think mindless swearing is funny.

The reviews are kinda great but not "professional" in quality, sometimes the voice volume is recorded too high and clips (not that it matters much) and needs a bit of compression, and of course you should speak a little slower (to be more clear for people who don't know many names or such like me). But overall the reviews are great

Just watched all of them. Great reviews. And Keksi, I know that some reviewers might go a bit overboard with their swearing like AVGN does, but it's just for entertainment. I love his reviews to be honest, and it really keeps you entertained and keeps you watching. But that's just my opinion.
I'm looking forward to the next part in your anthology.

Well actually I wouldn't call those "reviews" but more like something funny indeed, and it's not serious most times I agree

Actually, he reviews them in most ways a lot of the time.
But this is getting off topic.

I didn't say that I don't like the angry video game nerd. I was implying that there has been a stupid trend/plaque going on for some years now of people just mindlessly swearing about a game inspired by the "AVGN", but the angry video game nerd actually is entertaining and actually makes some kind of a point while some others just mindlessly swear.
Off-topic indeed.
I have a few geeky nits to pick about the reviews and I'll also say that they kind of seem more like a "retrospective". Keep up the good work.

Good work however i'd like to note some things i didnt like:
you neglected to mention wog,or heroes 3.5 the unoffical fan based upgrade that adds allot of things.
A review most be a little bit more objective
An the neglectness of heroes 5? i hate ubi too,but its still a heroes.
and Might and Magic original games? you seem to think that Heroes was the main part of the franchise..
And i dont like how you prounces might like 'migh'

He is getting around to HOMM5 lol. He has said that on some of his videos and even in his first post in this thread.
I think WoG should be mentioned as well since it adds a lot of new things to the games. Also, I think you forgot to mention one of things that is quite important in the Adventure Maps and that is the buildings that can give you extra skills, experience, monsters etc. Price of Loyalty added new campaign, scenarios and new buildings if I recall correctly, and not just new scenarios. I might be wrong though.

But if you hate it thats your opinion and your entitled to it,even if its wrong and infadialius
But you still cannt let you personal opinion infear with it. despite being unoffical it adds so meny elements to the game,that ignoring it would be stupid!

Its not my hatrid of WoG, sure, its ugly, and bugs the crap out of the perfected Heroes III gameplay.. did I mention its UGLY? But thats not the point. If its not official, I don't intend to review.
We're all entitled to our opinions, but it isn't my opinion which is keeping me from reviewing the game, I hate the Playstation 2 Heroes, but as its an Anthology, that will also be reviewed one day.
