I'm so happy with this! Ubisoft needs to get as much criticism for Heroes VII as possible.

Its nothing new after all they are technically always using deception because the game they promise and its state at release never align.

We understand that some customers in North America were not aware the Collector’s Edition delivered digital versions of the game and soundtrack.

I wonder if people should take this in court. That'd REALLY teach them a lesson.

For a few months.

Although that might make them sell the franchise do to the "dangerous" fanbase.

It's going to end really soon (big company = good attorneys = quick settlements,) but this is going to be an additional punch made at the Ubisoft and their treatment of M&M franchise. The more such things, the higher is probability that maybe we'll finally see some positie changes in their attitude towards our favourite franchise.

Don't count on that. When Ubisoft buys the rights to the franchise, it holds it. Look at Prince of Persia and Settlers. Both franchises were bought by Ubisoft and it doesn't seem that they are going anywhere, so I won't expect a different approach towards M&M.

If that ever happened then I vote we create a "Heroes of Might and Magic 6" and pretend Ubisoft's 6 and 7 were never made.

They have had things thrown at them like this before and nothing changed I doubt this or any other further incidences will change there mind set unless it is very serious.

Don't worry I'm not I just hope Heroes does not sink to the mediocrity that settlers is at I mean have you even heard of it recently?

I wouldn't call it "sinking" towards mediocrity, as that would be considered an improvement. But anyway, I would understand their feeble minds messing up game design, but even marketing? I mean, seriously, is there ANYTHING they get right?

I think at E3 this year Gamescon last year a new title in the "Settlers" franchise was revealed. However, after being criticized for deviating too much from the "Settlers" formula no one has heard about it ever since...

And I doubt we will hear from it again. I fear Heroes may follow if something is not done to correct its downward slope.

We all saw this coming. But I guess it will be dismissed after they get to choose a new game to be shipped as bribery apology.
