The Heroes Round Table

Let's talk about how HIV is better than Heroes 3.

Please, just because you dislike the concepts doesn't make them objectively ridiculous. ;) I explained Ashan necromancers many times and I could repeat it again if you wanted to go past your first impressions alone, but if you're not willing to listen to any explanation, you can't blame anyone but y...

I do. They own the rights, they manipulate people through their blog , they tell us to f*ck off, THEY should sell the rights and be the ones doing their own game, instead of polluting what once was a brilliant franchise by usurping its name. Ubisoft 'usurped' Might & Magic's name with NWC's ble...

I'm not saying it's a bad idea altogether, but for me, the concept portrayed by this map kinda made me cringe...

This is kinda funny. How is it 'good' to 'dispose of someone'? Frankly, it sounds like something that a mafia would be doing.

That's a two way question.

Not in case of Behemoth, really... Out of all the things old fans might complain about, this one is the last one I'd expect and actually the least valid.

Then we can ask JVC to kickstart a proper HOMM game. :) He must still be out there somewhere, no? He is still probably around somewhere, probably even less interested in the franchise than Ubisoft is. Why do you ask? :) Really, given how old pre-Ubi games are, I'd expect most people advocating them...

Dalai, I admit I do have a few specific people in mind when I mentioned poisoning the fanbase, but don't worry, you're not one of them - I mean people who start making "crusades" - you on the other hand, state a negative opinion and while I might disagree with it, at least it's not as toxi...

Actually, I'm pretty sure that Ubisoft itself remains completely unaffected by raging fanboys on the official blogs or community forums, which is mostly what I meant by tearing the fanbase apart. The only people who notice that - and suffer that - are the fans and the very tiny branch of this compan...

Ubisoft manages many projects. Naturally, they are prioritizing. The recent history of HoMM franchise is the reflection of it's place on priorities list. Nothing personal, HoMM is just a bastard child no one loves in Ubi, close to the end of the list. Let it earn it's keep, let's train some "y...

Galaad, I do realize we have the old Heroes cult here, but are you honestly saying H2 and H3 had the best visuals?

Personally I think the general art direction and Ashan pretending (aside a few easter eggs) NWC's universe never existed is core of the problem with old timers not interested in H7. They do not pretend it never existed, they just made another one... Honestly, there were even some mentions that thes...

I think there are numerous possibilities preventing them from revealing such info. For example, they might not even know whether they're going to implement some features or not as the development is still not finished. Another possibility is that they can't leak info just like that and it's informat...

Hmn, he was the Dark Elf the whole time, but as a cultist, I'd think he was tainted by the Chaos magic anyway. I'm pretty certain that if he died before Tieru's ritual, he'd respawn as full-fledged incubus... which would also allow Kha-Beleth to punish him for his betrayal. People could enter Sheogh...

As far as I'm concerned, he was never a demon - he was a demon cultist posing as one to fellow demons. Very few knew of that, since it was mostly a secret between Kha-Beleth and Agrael. The fact that Raelag was not fully a demon was exactly what made him such a great agent on the Griffin lands. His ...

I thought I already answered that question...? After the eclipse is over, Demons need a source of magical power to survive on Ashan - most of such leftovers consume artifacts, although it's very hard to do so without being noticed. Other ways include being summoned by a demon cultist - in such cases...

It's the same as for other Demons - they are essentially beings of Chaos now, and regular reproduction is a part of Asha's cycle of Life and Death, so it's impossible to happen. Well, of course, with exception for Isabel and the Demon Messiah that is.

Is there a way to organize the order in which Heroes in your dynasty are displayed, possibly other than hacking Uplay's database?

While Demons can't reproduce with the Elder Races (I suspect that many do copulate though...), the Elder Races themselves.... hmn. It's certainly possible for Angels to be lovers of Humans, but whether this love will bear fruit isn't really known. The only instance of such a halfling is half-elf, ha...

Glad I helped. If you have any other lore-related questions, go ahead and ask.

I thought we were talking about Heroes V? Demons in Clash of Heroes receive a lot of help from demon cultists - they are summoned by them via portals, so I can only suspect these same mages give them minor artifacts for them to consume. Azh-Rafir was one of the most powerful wizards at the time, so ...
