Does anyone care about HOMM 6?

Tried the demo, almost immediately lost interest.

Spoiler: Here is why:

Also it lacks my favourite factions. Sorry, but your Asian waterpark is no replacement for Academy, Sylvan, and Dungeon.

Is there a random map generator? That's all I ever used in HOMM 3 because the campaigns are boring. I bought 5 I think and I was greatly disappointed there was no random map generator. So I think I will stick with 3

It has random map generator and Hot Seat.



I had a decent amount of fun playing the campaign, it's nothing special however. I loved the Undead Campaign but then the Human and Naga campaigns got a bit boring since they felt very similar, especially the heroes.

Then of course Skyrim got released and I totally forgot about Heroes 6 and I have no idea when I'll give it another try. Between Skyrim, Christmas Holidays and Diablo 3 in January I think Heroes 6 has indeed slipped of the grid cause of all this other major "RPG" titles.

Homm 6 just got a hell of a lot more interesting to me. On the other hand, Skyrim.

Actually I apologize. I was fairly certain that they included a RMG in one of the patches (or they just promised one) but I see there isn't one at the moment. So only Hot Seat is true in my earlier post, sorry for the misinformation.

Big fan of the series, I just feel it reached it's zenith with HoMM 3. HoMM 2 was one of the best games i've ever played and I loved the graphics, sexy VGA. Still I havn't looked much at the series since 4, perhaps i should give 6 a whirl.

On a side note; with the success M&M Clash of heroes, and the turn based nature of the game I think HoMM is one of the few highly polished strategy games that could be effectively ported to a console. Don't get me wrong, long may the PC live, but good console strategy games are hard to come by and the series already has a bit of buzz from Clash of Heroes.

Aw Man! Frowny face..... I will stick with HOMM 3 then.

I played some game, a long time ago. I think it said 'might and magic' on the box, but it was some kind of first person role playing game from a loong time ago.

Someone might be able to identify this game for me - I remember the opening scene had me in the middle of some battle in a village, surrounded by 2D sprits of lizard men, etc. Killed me instantly. That is all the knowledge I have of this enigmatic "might and magic" series. And it's probably actually another game.

(the game kinda looked like TES: Arena)

Might and magic VIII. The last good might and magic game. Heroes of might and magic is technically set on the same planet (but not really) but are strategy games.

oh wow it's odd reading through these threads and then finding out they where from like 5 years ago. Moderation was a lot different back then too, everything was different with so many forums.

I was Really Confused about this post tat they were talking like HOMM6 was new and then I realized it was from 2011 lol super necro thread

Wow I'm in a necro thread, reading posts by 3 years younger me... Aaah I was so young and naive back then, hoping that HOMM 6 had a generator... Those were the days.
