Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era

All maps full of dwellings that you need to visit every week to get some extra resources and bonuses. That was a single annoying thing in Heroes 3, luckily there was not much of this, but here? OMG. Does someone really think that this series was about running back and forth with numerous heroes remembering to collect trash? Also insanely weak creatures on the maps that pose no challenge. I am sure that is very many positive opinions given by hardcore heroes fans, but so far playing this is pain in the a*s. I really hope there will be some good map editor and fresh set of maps. More challenge and less things you need to visit every week. This way of grinding completely ruins the game.

I wish I had never bought this game. I was looking for a game I could play in hotseat with my wife, like Heroes 3. What I got is just another lazy “players are the content” PvP game. They claim that they will add PvE features, but I would hold off on buying this until that actually materialises. Way too many developers have promised the same without ever delivering on their promises.

This is a pretty good skeleton of a Heroes game and if you're interested in online competitive PvP I would recommend this as is. That is not why I like playing HoMM though, I've never played a stranger in HoMM in my life and prefer local games, usually co-op with friends. Teams are not in the game yet. There are no good symmetrical handmade maps, you need to rely on the map generator which has its own quirks. The AI is also highly aggressive because it uses tactics more typical in competitive HoMM. I feel like this game will eventually have what I want, but right now it isn't there yet.

Вы когда почините бесконечный конец хода после гибели ИИшки? Купили с женой игру и на первой же карте кампнии словили этот баг, две карты подряд! Какого чёрта топики с описанием этого бага находятся с ноября прошлого года, а решения до сих пор нет?

只根据PVP来平衡太傻比了,裂渊改动的都没法玩了.

Performance problems, artifact and hero balance problems, AI problems.

кусок ебанины, почти закрыл карту, напал на какой-то объект не посмотрев, там тим с моей армией не с большим количеством типов и ходит первым. зачем это? как это побеждать? ♥♥♥ бы с ним. но в игре нет автосейвов. спасибо за 3 часа въебаных в никуда

I really hate to say this about an Early Access Game, but this is in my running for GOTY already. This is the best Heroes of Might and Magic game since Heroes III, bar-hecking-none. In fact, I might actually like it *better* than Heroes III: It achieves the same painterly, immersive, otherworldly qualities as the early games in the series (I-III) while implementing almost all of the Quality of Life improvements introduced in Heroes V. The writing is engaging, the campaign is detailed and deep, and the underlying systems are well-balanced. I am so excited to let these devs cook.

I played the OG HMM games growing up and this games does them justice while adding in some very nice modern elements. Multiplayer works great, but this is one of very few games I actually enjoy playing solo too.
