Unfortunately it is not like this anymore:

I really don't want to be a prophet predicting in less than two days Ubisoft can say the "HOMM community voted for Vampire Lady and Mummy-Lich". lol Not only they stole our game, they are also stealing our voice, replacing it by Ashanites, who can freely express themselves under the ever-f...

it just doesn't reach me. :hoo: Really, why are you giving your vote to Ashan then? Ashan is more than just setting and story-telling, it influences visuals too. In Enroth for example, Lich is skeletal. However in Ashan, he's a Mummy. If you hate Ubisoft for what they've done to this franchise, you...

Great!

Though remember, it is the fan base who is asking for the Ashanian designs.

Well I agree. Starcraft II in example definitely was what Starcraft fans were waiting for.

Ps. I invite you to read this thread.

The Ancient Mummy The thing with the Mummy is that it makes a great Mummy lol, while this is a vote for what we think makes a great Lich. He's also too spiky for my taste, and why would he need to "hide his desiccated face behind a mask", is he ashamed not being pretty enough for the beau...

I voted no sword. The sword has always annoyed me. Pretty much this. Someone named Minastir already tweaked the current sketch of the Blood Monster . Hopefully we won't have to drive ourselves insane again in order to make them loose the long hair lol, but a majority has to fully agree for that fir...

Yes it's me =P
Galaad was already taken for Uplay username so I made a contraction with Galehaut, the good friend of Lancelot. ;-)

I'll wait and see how people react to it. But I have a feeling it's going to face a tough market. They've frittered away the value of the brand, making the fans of the 3DO games hesitant to buy again, and I don't know how easy it will be attract new ones. They aim to conquer fans of Blizzard. Fans ...

Thanks! Almost all the lore is written but I still need to come up with most of the creatures descriptions, and abilities, and possibly stats. Deadline is in about two weeks, I need to kick my ass a bit!

Hello Groovy! Nice to meet you, the project seems awesome, just let me catch up on all these threads and I hope I can be of some help lol

Oh, you

The damage is going further, it was not enough of them to offer us horrid art-style, now they frankenstein our beloved heroes from the past as well. Behold Ashan-Edric (makes me want to puke) and Tyris now has a strabism lol https://mmh7.ubi.com/en/blog/post/view/haven-s-hall-of-heroes How far will ...

This track is not "forgotten" lol It is an alternative version of Sorceress Town in Heroes II. Just for the record: There are three different variants of the HoMM II Soundtrack. 1. Heroes of Might and Magic II: The Succession Wars (original November 4, 1996 release). 2. Heroes of Might and...

I am saying H1, H2 and H3 defined the Heroes atmosphere (and even the sadly too rushed H4). Ubi made something else, imo explaining the big loss of fans.

I agree. Yet the art direction taken by Ubi affecting aesthetics has nothing to do with the ones defining the Heroes we know, which were more Sword & Sorcery inspired, while now we get LoTR all over the place, along WoW/WH bad ripoffs. And their ideas of innovations in gameplay were quite catast...
