"Heroes in combat were fun, but it was hard to find a balance between 'fragile little eggs which break at the first hit' and 'unstoppable killing machines'," explains Sermil, former New World Computing programmer, in our news comments. Long-time Round Table members heard about that decision a long time ago, back when Fabrice was not merely lurking in our forums. While seeing heroes take a step back on the battlefield is unfortunate, what is more concerning is the fact that we might never see our favorite heroes again in that new world Ubisoft is creating. Just for fun, a thread was started: if you could bring one hero with you in the new Might and Magic universe, who would that be? There is still a lot of time left before Heroes V is released, so perhaps we can convince Ubi to give a cameo to one true legend.
