Why Heroes of Might and Magic 3 is the one that shined? Why not

You're a delusional shit-eater. There was not a single HoMM fan who did not praise HoMM5. HoMM > HoMM3, people meme HoMM3 more only due to nostalgia value, HoMM has objectively better gameplay.

HoMM 5 alreayd looks dated as fuck graphically, while HoMM 3 still looks fucking amazing

>>376900479
>HoMM
I meant HoMM5

>>376900451
2 is much more aesthetically pleasing, though.

>>376900479
HoMM5 got better with the expansions, but 3 is still the best one, with 5 a close second to me.

>people meme HoMM3 more only due to nostalgia value, HoMM5 has objectively better gameplay.

You're fucking retarded. HoMM5 is certainly not bad all things considered, but it's definitely not better than 3 or 2.

The only way you could walk around with that dumbfuck idea in your brain is if 5 was the first you played and you've never given anything earlier a chance.

Mostly nostalgic value for me, the first homm game I played was Heroes Chronicles Clash of the dragons, got it at a flea market.
But to be honest I do like the way 3 looks and sounds more than say 2 or 5, which are both very good games.

I played 5 before any of the others. Didn't discover the series until like 2009.

King's Bouty > HoMM. There, I said it. It's the same thing as with the RTS vs RTT comparison. Focus on pure tactical combat and eschewing of base-building or heavy economy related elements makes a better game.

Same reason AoE2 beats out the rest. Blind luck.

>>376901183
Any HoMM game not developed by original devs or at least fucking Russians is shit by definition.

>>376900479
HoMM 5 failed hard with it outrageously small, symmetrical and boring maps.
Also, city/unit designs were often boring. E.g. compare dungeon in 3 to 5. Former has all kinds of cool and interesting creatures, in the latter, every unit except one is a not!-warhammer dark elf.

>>376901426
>>376901217
You're both retarded. RTT games were birthed by the RTS genre and have outlived it, because they are objectively superior and people want to play them. RTT games are the evolution of the RTS games.

Same comparison applies to HoMM and King's Bounty. King's Bounty was the better game and franchise, because it focused on the most fun aspects of HoMM games: tactical turn based combat. And don't even try to apply the "muh popularity" "argument", a game or a franchise being more popular does not mean it's better.

>>376901662
Personally i like map painting simulators, so the most fun aspect is painting the map red.
The battles are nice and all, but they're a mean to an end.

>>376901349
It's not really one bad thing or another, it's more like it was pretty much the exact same shit the previous 3 games were, just more boring. I was extra burned out after KB, KBAP and KBWOTH that I couldn't stomach another one, so there's that. Your opinion may of course differ.

2 was great, but what 2 did good, 3 perfected. The fact that the series only went downhill with the fourth game and beyond further cemented that.

>>376901964
>it's more like it was pretty much the exact same shit the previous 3 games were
Objectively wrong, you haven't even played the game, I'd wager. The game included the biggest amount of new gameplay mechanics and content. You could select a protagonist now with each protagonist having his own personal quests and story and the game added a whole shitload of passive and active abilities to units of all races and introduced another shitload of new units, making the game the most tactically rich in the franchise. The game is much better than any other KB game, the only argument people may have against is "b-but where is muh meme humor", which is retarded in and of itself, as nobody plays these kind of games for writing or story.

Damn, France really let itself go.

Differences in gameplay

3
>Factions are unbalanced
>Units inside factions are either most of the time unbalanced
>Artefacts are either useless or totally game breaking
>There is one good school of spells, most of the spells in the game are useless.
>Necromancy
>Heroes themselfs are unbalanced mess, there is some you just dont want to take. Ever.
>There is only one build of skills you want to every hero in every faction with slight differences.
>Maps are fucking great.

5
>Most of the factions are balanced, but some are slightly weaker at Month 1
>All the units are good, and you can upgrade them to compliment your hero OR you can build your hero to compliment the army. Imagination and adaptation is crucial.
>All artefacts are useable, albeit a bit boring. No bad picks.
>All the spell schools are useful. You can build your hero to become a spell-slinging, world-ending monster or just utility the army. Again; imagination and adaptation is crucial.
>Necromancy is more flexible and balanced
>All heroes are good; but always few specialize in something and seem more inviting; which again arouses imagination of how to build your game and army.
>Because the game has actually great skill system; all the heroes will be different in every game; because all the factions have own unique nuances in the skill trees, this makes the game infinitely more interesting and replayable than "trying to avoid Eagle Eye" (which can be good pick in HOMM5).
>Maps are fucking shit.

>>376903437
So basically :
3
>awesome
5
>boring

Balance is the death of games, right below streamlining.

>>376902830

Is that from the campaign?

>>376903437
>There is one good school of spells, most of the spells in the game are useless.
This one struck me the most from your list. I find only fire magic school to be useless, well not completely, but the least useful. While earth magic is OP, air and water magic offer really good spells like chain lightning, flying, water walking, dimension gate, haste...

To the one HoMM5 defender that pops in literally every thread:

I'm not sure what happened in your life to warrant your need to come to every HoMM thread just to shit on the fan-favourite and to keep shoving your own favourite part of the series own everyone's throat even though it's clear that no one agrees with you.

It doesn't help your case that your only "arguments" are:
>delusional shit-eater
>Kill yourself
>you shit-eating nostalgiacuck

And that you seem to flat out refuse to acknowledge that H3 is the most beloved and well liked game in the series. For example if you go on gameranger there are 84 H3 lobbies up and only 34 H5. All the still active mapmakers are making maps for H3, the H5 mapmaking and modding scene died about 2 years after release. Meanwhile there were entire fan expansions created for H3 relatively recently.
The H5 early-3D artstyle has aged like milk and makes it arguably one of if not the worst looking game in the series by present day standards.

If you really want further proof that nobody other than you cares about H5, just make your own thread about it an see how long it survives.

Just stop shitting up every HoMM3 thread with your nonsensical warpath.

>>376903964
nah, that wouldn't appear in the campaign, it's a scenario map.

nigga what
all of them are potentially gamebreaking, earth with Town Portal, Resurrection and Implosion, air with Fly, Dimension Door and arguably Haste, water with Clone, Prayer and arguably Bless and Teleport, fire with Berserk, Armageddon and Blind even though you dont need fire magic for Blind to be effective
I do agree that most of the spells in the game are useless filler though

>>376902830
>Not even the dead can know peace from the child support evil

I arrived late to the series and have only played 3 and 5. Why is 4 considered so shit?

>>376900479
i liked heroes 5 but its nowhere near the addicting heroes 3 which i still play from time to time
3 still has this golden age gaming feel of no nonsense where you just chose map or use map generator and play but 5 feels clunky for some reason and bright graphics feel uninspired but at least gameplay is decent

>>376904283
because it came after 3

>>376903964
Pretty sure it's from the Battle of the Sexes map.

>>376904283
I personally didn't like the perspective

I wonder why Ubisoft ditched the Russian devs that made HoMM5. It wasn't perfect but it was a lot fucking better than HoMM6 and 7. Last I heard the HoMM5 devs are indebted to the Russian mob and are forced into making shitty MOBAs and TDs.

>>376904283
It's very different. They tried something new with the series and most people didn't like it.

>>376904283
4 is very different game and most of people hated the changes
but it has great campaigns compared to other homm games and music is goat
gameplay is a bit of meh though

>>376904406
Also, the way the heroes work in the game is completely fucked. They die too easy early game, and become unstoppable powerhouses late game.

>>376904324
>>376904354
>>376904378
>>376904406
Is it worth giving it a go?

Also 3DO was dying when they released 4.

>>376903437
and despite every "muh balance" argument i still find fortress to be my fav faction, despite the fact that most of players consider them to be one of worst if not the worst city

>>376904560
Sure. If nothing else, it has an amazing soundtrack that'll keep you company.

It's with most games like this;

>Create a new game, all good.
>Improve that game, all better.
>perfect that game, the best.

after the 3rd edition. milk it hard.

>>376904560
play 3 first
then you can try to play 4

>>376904618
Fortress is my favorite as well. There is no doubt that they're pretty bad, but they're still great thematically.

>>376904618
Nah, Inferno is. Overpriced, low HP units, 1 archer that fucks you up with its AoE attack, and the heroes are shit tier as well.

>>376904560
Play it like an RPG and it's okay. Take your hero on a journey to achieve godhood. Troops are cheerleaders.

HOMM5 is a quality game.

Anyone who disagrees is a dumb faggot and is probably trying to backdoor shill for HOMM6.

since the thread inevitably shifted to discussion of homm 3

>>376900479
Global map is not good in 5. Stupid slavs failed to make hexagonal combat field. Last expansion kinda fucked up levelup system. Game also has some serious balance problems like dwarf's runes being extremely op in lategame where you swim in recources.

Name a good Tower hero aside from Solmyr.

>>376904813
>what are you opinions about HOTA
I only play HOTA now, but it's not like I'm some hardcore HoMM3 player, I just prefer as much content in my game as I can, especially if it's a game I've known for many years.

The Cove town fits perfectly, the new artifacts and map locations also add variety and that's what matters the most to me.

So I'm getting into HoMM 3 for the first time and is it recommended to have more than your starting hero out on the field?

I tried playing HoMM 5 but the one scenario would be abysmal and take me up to 1.5 hours to complete. Does having more heroes help alleviate that, even in HoMM 3?

unless the map is extremely linear, its a good idea to recruit more heroes as soon as possible to scout the area quicker for resources
if you wanna play it safe just give the scout heroes 1 unit and load your main hero with the rest of the troops

It looks like a terrible mod. Like some russian kids took the map editor from Crossworlds and made their own game with it.

Dark Side looks like fucking shit, dude. Did they even have any QA guys?

>>376910302
no.
i usually play hot-seat with friends, plus few AI enemies.

>>376901653
>Also, city/unit designs were often boring
I still think HOMM5 had the best Tower/Academy/Faction-with-Magi-and-Genies designs.
Dwarves were pretty cool too.

>still play with RL friends from time to time
>we never play more than 2 hours of it and never finish a match
for some reason, every kid in my town played HoMM3, in the early 2000s it was like the most popular game next to Counter Strike.

>Love HOMM games
>Absolutely shit at strategy and resource management
>Only good tutorial videos are some guy on Youtube playing 6+ hour random maps

Even to this day I don't know the build order for towns/heros/skills etc. Has anyone ever put together a learn HOMM thread/video series?

>>376913561
there isn't really an easy way to get really good at heroes without investing a lot of time into the game, but if you don't want to learn trough trial and error, the best way to learn is watching really good let's players of the game. Despite playing HoMM3 for almost 20 years now, I still learned useful thing from this guy for example:

As a general rule, it's better to rush for creatures than gold income.

>Love HMM
Can't into different heroes, I just like building one character and having a fuckhuge army
>Get rekt every time by random peasants with 3 skeletons taking my empty town and buying all the creatures

>>376915351
this is how my matches usually turn out. At the start of the game, I have one main hero, several scouting/resource gathering or generating heroes and one of those side heroes is also there to go back and forth from the town to my main hero to supply him reinforcements.

In the middle portion of a match, I usually have several heroes with armies, just because my side heroes are defining castles while the main one is in enemy territory.

By the end of the match I end up just using my main hero again as he's either using fly, dimension door, town portal or all 3.

You are retarded. 5 hotseat is leagues better than 3 hotseat and hotseat is the heart and soul of HoMM.

>>376910030
Heroes 5.5 aleviated that issue somewhat.
First turn takes a while, afterwards all turns are fast.

You will never know the true joy of vidya. I'm not even going to call you bad names, because this fact is punishment enough.

>>376900243
I never got good at this game. And I only played campaign, can't even imagine how it would be like to play against other people, which is the gamemode this game is known for. Put like 20 hours in it but this game is just too difficult.

>>376916932
i HATE most mods for strategy games with passion, is there a way to just get the AI turn fix?

2 was the best one

That I don't know of. h5.5 comes bundled with a heap of changes regarding balancing and map randomization and UI.
I think you're out of luck on this one, sorry.

2 is fine, but it doesn't go as far.
In 3, every faction is radically different, size is also a factor: Heroes 2 simply have less towns and smaller unit trees.

4 is literally trash without Equilibris, it's time to stop eating poop m8
