It doesn't matter if NWC had unique visuals or not, what matters is people were used to a certain environment and it got drastically changed.

so now nwc's visuals don't matter. huh...i think that's  the "people's" problem though. i was used to the visuals and the "certain" environment back in the day too, being a steady fan since heroes 2 and replaying heroes 3 till h5 came out, yet i didn't raise hell about the change of visuals. or the setting.

Are you talking from H2 to H3 or from H3 to H4?

We obviously don't see things the same way, once you said we shouldn't argue, and you are right as it leads nowhere.

Obviously, but your argument is still tenuous at best, since the the only games that keep the same aesthetic from their predecessor were H2 and H7 (and NWC H5 had it been made)

I am not starting this debate and go back 1000th pages again, besides Zombi_Wizard explained the issue crystal clear already.

Nope. Sorry.

Galaad said:
Well I'm sorry but you will find no one telling you Ubi games look akin to 3DOs. Everything is different, first it's full 3D environment, then the whole VISUAL STYLE is different. Some may like it, others not or won't care much as long as mechanics are satisfying, but it looks DIFFERENT, like ANOTHER GAME.



That's great but what he wrote is that the 3DO games didnt have unique visuals. Which leads back to my point "you cant lose what you never had"


you arent serious, right? have you heard of "warcraft 3" or smth which was released 2002?

Not flying in W3 back in 2002. But the appearance of Dalaran precedes that of H5 Academy, so there's that.

What? Wasn't Dalaran a cross shaped city using the same tile set as the capital of Lordaeron?

Yep. But unlike the movie version and the Academy version is just influenced by the middle eastern architecture and looks like its own thing.

A toast for our lurker friends. Do come out to say hi every now and then


I might but I don't know since I actually like HOMM7 directions in game design  despites its many flaws (balancing and overboard implementation)  and the patching ryhtms so far gives me actual hope of it becoming the best HOMM of the series.
I even consider Limbic as courageous and pretty serious. Don't you think I might only create more tension ?

(ok now I'm trolling alrigh't)

(but I do mean it)  

My only redeeming quality is that I do not extend my opinion of Limbic to Ubisoft which came so very close to destroy a given succesfull franchise  by being too cheap.

(See I m one of you , I hate ubisoft too ! =) )

Meanwhile, watching how literally more than half a million people play the already multi-award winning Fallout 4 game while this piece of broken and unplayable hot garbage in my library for which I even had to pay the same price is rotting further away into oblivion without any sign of significant improvement for over a month now and with its dying active playerbase of less than a thousand. Lesson duly learned.


Don't think that Fallout 4 is that good. (it lacks the soul, decent dialogue, roleplaying mechanics that New Vegas had ) But it's good for TES fans, cut it's like a TES with Fallout skin.

Anyway offtopic over, sry

Are you really expecting Heroes to have a playerbase anywhere close to Fallput, like seriously?

I think he was comparing mostly the fact that in prior to all Fallout 4 current success and not as many problems as H7 showed so far, both have the same price (in his region, I think). Player base for H7 could be marginally better if not due all the if-nots – or if the game was cheaper.

Fallout 4 is nowhere near in the state in Heroes VII is. Sure, it has its own gameplay flaws and probably has many bugs, but at least it improved in some aspects. And it has more reasonable price (when you look at the whole game) rather than Heroes VII was.

Just because homm3 is 2d doesn't automatically mean it has a good graphics or that it is aesthetically appealing. That’s just nostalgia. I played 3 after 5 and I found the visuals in 3 ugly. The towns are OK, but the units are especially ugly. Homm5 has much better visuals despite being 3D. And IMO civilization 1 and the SSI/Goldbox games like Pool of Radiance have far superior visuals than Homm 3.
