Might and Magic 8 with generative AI renders of various scenes. Soon this will be done real-time.

In the near future (if not already with supercomputers), we will be able to render higher graphics on top of retro games—in real time. It's worth looking up some of this stuff if you haven't seen it before. Some of what people are doing already is pretty wild. This video is just an idea of what some...

What you wish you knew before playing mm7 for the first time?

Little backstory, I played the might and magic games as a kid with my dad, but I was usually much too young to actually fully beat them (or even read for that matter). Anyways, I just beat MM6 for the first time, and there were definitely some things I wish I knew before hand that would have made th...

Re: Strange MM6 Issues

Yeah I had already turned off UAC. Turns out it was just permission issues, because there are 2 administrators on this laptop and it really confuses old games. I just messed with finding the right place to put the entire directory until I no longer ran into permission issues. I actually beat it for ...

I've been wanting to play this game again for a while but I am running into some annoying issues -Firstly the installation was bugged—it would only install without the "extra graphic files", but it finally installed. -Game would not save—I tried fixing this by running it in Administrator m...

Ya sounds like your just having fun. It does feel pretty good to be able to beat the game within like 5 hours but I've played mm8 too much and would rather push it down to as fast as physically possible. Can you think of any type of party members that would be better than having to do all of blazen ...

Wait, so is he going to do it for MM8 too? Cause that would be really freaking awesome... especially if it was made at least 50 times harder..

That is quite a good idea and I will most definitely be doing that. The part I like the least is having to do book of khel/ lich jars/blazen..

The most fun part to watch for me so far is the telekineses abuse, it's pretty funny what you can do with it, you shall see.

Okay it took me about 2 hours just kinda beating the first part of the game, that is dagger wound to finishing regna.. To my dismay, you cannot hire the level 50 lich unless you have completed the lich training; also you can't get dervin chevrish(level 50 cleric) until you rescue blazen... So now I ...

Ya I already ran through the hole game up to regnan fleet and It's possible to get lich jars, ebonest, book of khel all with invisibilty. And if what you say is true I don't even think I half to do half the stuff I said. All I have to do is get regnan fleet I guess and I'm set for strength.. And I f...

And i'm thinking of buying becon then going to ravage roaming asap for GM Water... Problem is I think I might have trouble walking through ogre fortress at that time in t...

Well whats a good spell that does decent damage that is either fire water air or earth and has relatively low mana cost... like 15/20 or less. Is sparks good enough end game if she has like lvl 20 master(not grandmaster) air?

Ya i was thinking of ditching the cleric and going for a necro. The problem is you can only get 2 necros until your fame is like 4000, which i will never be able to get it that high unless i clear things out and go do side quests, all promotion quests, and most the main quests. Dragon is more than c...

Yes I thought about doing that but I also tested getting all of the money/items from the smugglers cove and it equates to over 60,000 if you sell everything with cauri.. With that and just random acquiring gold I should be fine for the rest of the game. And on the test account I also got telekinesis...

No, jumping in water most definitely doesn't work in mm8. And thx for the waterwalk tip, i'll probably do that in the actual speed run. Or I might just start with a cleric, water damage goes by percents, so healing a level 1 cleric does A LOT more than a lvl 5 cleric. That way my ending party can be...

The first thing I tried to do was jump in the water and was quite annoyed when I couldn't. So that doesn't work.. And by speed run I mean putting it on a video and the amount of actual real life time it takes to beat it.
