My eyes, they burn...

It's the white mostly... the JRPG angel simply doesn't remind me of Heroes though.

I think the devs don't realize that they are not projecting the game's image through the box art.

When I see that, do I see turn based strategy? Heck, does the word STRATEGY come to mind when I see that box art? Hell no.

If I didn't know better, I'd say this was the box art for some JRPG where you take the role of an over-feminized angel.


Here's a hint Blackhole, if you want to symbolize strategy you want to:

1. Not lead anyone to be thinking in a specific genre: face close up, or just the text of the game title.

2. Lead people to believe it's a strategy - symbolize an empire, a battle, or an array of choices.

Although the VI pics are very nice, the proportion of objects ( such as castles, trees, mountains, etc ) to player ( hero ) are more balance, but it seems that there are too many redundant spots ( too many vacancies ) in the map.
Eg : the castle that can be "drawn" as 2x2 object now become 5x5 object which is takes more space. ( compared to HoMM III ).
This is not RPG, this is strategy ( TB game). Everything should be simplified do to fit the core of the game.
Any one ?

It's good that we have a semi-confirmation that some of the old factions will be returning in an expansions. How about all of the ones mentioned plus another new faction across two expansions? :baby:

As for the screenshot: Why do those creatures and heroes look so ugly, pixelated? Are there going to be any hexes, combat shadow, or any kind of indicator where a creature can tread?

Because that's how 3D looks while not in motion... they'll probably look better in-game...

actually any screenshots of a 3D game that doesn't have that slightly pixelated look when it's that up close have been touched up...

And we saw the square grid a few times in other screens.
