It's an even bigger problem with games that are story sequels; when the graphics are two years ahead in the second game from where they were in the first, players feel cheated when they get interested in the series and have to go back to three-year-old graphics in order to get the full story.
It's the sort of thing that makes you wish they would just release both games at the same time.
For Heroes 3, I really just wish they would improve the supported resolutions so as to be playable on a 1600x900 monitor (which is what I have).

They should give a updated Heroes 1 with it, I still think Heroes 1 was fantastic. It was simple yet strategic. Loved it! didn't try to complicate things too much (or couldn't)..

Just for curiosity, Veyer is the hero that was defeated by Agrael and killed by Kah-Beleth in the first map of the Inferno campaign from Heroes V, right?

Yes, that's Veyer. Though I don't remember if he was killed by Agrael in their fight or survived to be killed by Kha-Beleth later.

No, that was Erasial.
Veyer was the mook Agrael destroyed in his second mission (race to Nicolai's tomb), and he eventually got killed again at the end of the Dungeon campaign.

Thank you. I only remembered that Agrael said something about Veyer in his campaign.

Do you guys buy your games from Steam, Ubi directly, direct2drive, or somewhere else?
I typically have used D2D, but want to make sure that the download speed will be acceptable come Thursday night when I get off work! Thanks.

I'll buy it from the local game store for 39.90 euros. I'm a fan of getting the hard copy of the game and not download anything other than patches.

That seems pretty impossible to me.
Well, when I say "gamestore", I don't actually mean gamestore. We have a few stores around here that sell everything concering PC's and other electronic devices, including games for PC and all consoles.
I suppose there must be stores like that there too.

I just checked the site and Walmart will have this game. Not sure if they'll actually have it in store or if it's just an online thing though.
On a side note, the box art they are using for this game is the old M&M 6: The Mandate of Heaven game.

I had called around (I live in Florida / U.S.) and every gaming store (gamestop, best buy, etc) will have the hard copy. However, the hard copy is only the normal $49.99 game.
I am intent on getting the deluxe package, which is download only. Therefore, where do you guys recommend buying it from online? I've used D2D, but I've heard Steam is good too. I'm mostly interested in a site that will have a high download speed on game release day! Thanks.

I guess the muppet responsible for updating the Walmart site just googled "Might and Magic VI" and tacked on the first boxart that popped up. Alas for this silly mid-series rebranding stuff.

I firmly believe that is the single dumbest decision regarding the new game. There was no need to change it and if they thought it confused people, well, those people should not be playing a tactical game.
