H7: Tales of the Ten Years War - Part 4.

Unread postby Aemaeth » 09 Oct 2014, 20:50

When HeroesVII's team started to give nice stories on Might & Magic's background, players welcomed this new feature. They have now published the fourth part of the Ten Years War, and we must admit, it's quite astonishing.

More they give us information about those events, more players can discover political games and diplomatic alliances in Ashan.

With this fourth part, players can easily understand how the situation turn into a nice political mess, and try to anticipate the next episode with some conjectures.

What is the fascination with making homm heavy on the politics? It's boring and if the writing is poor, extremely damaging. I think that's one of the things that's really hurting this game.

I want a good old fashion kill-fest without the poly-sci about elf government officials opposition to current quota limitations on wood processing in saw mills.

And why are they discussing unicorn reinforcements when everyone knows unicorns were voted off the face of the planet and replaced with cosmic antelope.

Well put mr.hackcrag. The problem is the writers employed by Ubisoft think they are Tolkiens, but they're not even Robert Jordans.



Trying to divine any meaning from Ubisoft's weird policy decisions is quite pointless however. They do what they do, and hopefully they stumbled upon a studio that salvages just a little bit of the franchise. Luckily in this genre game play still trumps plot.

Fantasy knights fighting each other and making alliances along the way is what you call "heavy on the politics"? ^^

"And why are they discussing unicorn reinforcements when everyone knows unicorns were voted off the face of the planet and replaced with cosmic antelope."

Because we're talking about the Unicorn Duchy...

"the writers employed by Ubisoft think they are Tolkiens, but they're not even Robert Jordans." I think I'm a video game writer having fun writing a blog post.

I wonder who wrote "Griffin Eternal." I still cringe at the thought of that phrase. It has scarred me for life. :canthear:
