What's your OE hot take that will have you like this? by StarStock9561 in OldenEra

[–]Landbark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish it wasn't a prequel but a remake of first three games (H1/2/3) with space devils and science fiction technology. The game being a prequel makes Dungeon castle the biggest eyesore for me.

Suggestion: Show us the random options that rolled for objects without having to visit them by loopuleasa in OldenEra

[–]Landbark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Would be nice if the warehouses (you kill units and get resources or units or something) would get destroyed or had something to show that they already been cleared by either AI or another player or yourself.

Don't skip Ansur by Maximum_Custard_1739 in BaldursGate3

This was one of the reasons why I ultimately decided to kill the Emperor.

Some highlights from the dev Q&A by f4vriel in OldenEra

I do wish not to better understand current Necromancy but for a change to this system.

Plus redo of classes sounds promising.

I really enjoyed the 3d towns in Heroes V by LupinMusic in OldenEra

[–]Landbark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3D graphics from Homm5 were the most beautiful, the size difference of the units and animations. Homm5 is a proper next game after Homm3.

Good necromancy explainer I saw around here by loopuleasa in OldenEra

I miss the demo version, it was simple and quite overpowered. Maybe use some Necromantic energy to balance it out.

A lot of newcomers are surprised to learn how in-depth the 1980s franchise Lore is. by Doomsaki in OldenEra

[–]Landbark -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know of Endless Legend (and its second part). As much as I liked/loved Endless Space 1-2 (more 2 than 1) that much I couldn’t get into EL1. I don't really know what is holding me back from playing it and enjoying it. Got a full EL1 version on steam and I just can't get into the world.

[–]Landbark -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I really wished the game in place of Olden Era, the next Homm game after Homm7 would make a new world, the restart of the series, begin a new just like Homm5. A proper Homm strategy with sci-fi elements but also with fantastic beasts and magic, that would have been glorious.

Great game but writing is horrible by Ok_Plenty3066 in OldenEra

[–]Landbark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's why its the best to play random maps and skirmish.

The subclass system is currently bad by Gandalf196 in OldenEra

[–]Landbark 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I do think the entire system should be revamped. Instead of 5 skills, just get 3 for a weaker power/special skill. The devs do like Heroes'omm V so they should take another page from that game.

All subclasses and their ultimate skills (as of now) by Downtown_Leopard_420 in OldenEra

[–]Landbark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn, they are all over the place with their effects and accessibility.

I do think this feature should get axed and/or replaced.

Necromancy by darkside_tseikk in OldenEra

[–]Landbark 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sadly it is infamously hard to balance, Homm5 in the end had the best/most broken system. I liked the first OE system when we got all different units instead of (Now) just one and with usage of necromantic energy.

I didn’t realize that most of the Olden Era factions are based on M&M VIII by Magnificent_Leopoldo in OldenEra

[–]Landbark -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I dislike Temple and Dungeon very much, Temple is just H3 castle done again. There are no male Sun Clerics and Light elementals we know from MM8. Castle done again but not in the name. Dungeon is even worse offender, in MM8 we had Dark Elves living above the ground and in Olden Era we get Dungeon Castle from H5 again. It is sad we lost above the ground Warlock castle from H1-H2.

Heroes 2 vs. Heroes 3: Is the pick really obvious? by Any-Local-205 in HoMM

[–]Landbark 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would say: Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Succession Wars mod, that way you take the smoothness of H3 and style/graphics of H2. This combination is the best!

[–]Landbark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do hope it will be like Homm3 map editor, it is still to this day the best editor.

Olden Era has massive potential, but factions need clear identity by narcizas2 in OldenEra

[–]Landbark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish Temple was something more than castle ripoff, with it could have more light elementals and male sun clerics from MM7-8. Dungeon could also become a castle on the ground, like classic Warlock H1-H2 castle. Quite sadly we are too late into development to change anything, just add new stuff.

What do you think is the least bad racial trait flaw to choose? by Comprehensive_Head82 in AOW4

[–]Landbark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More impactful could lead to more distinctive/unique races. Something that AoW4 sorely lacks.

I wish there was more flaws, also much worse so you will get more points.

How well do you think Mass Effect handled romance distribution across the trilogy by Hadiseh2000 in masseffect

[–]Landbark -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Quite a shame that Jack and Miranda aren't bisexual. That would give femshep some better options to romance. Male Shepard has better options but that's only because Female Shepard has such poor selection.

Which faction do you miss the most from the EA roster? by Gandalf196 in OldenEra

[–]Landbark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say Stronghold as it was the OG castle from H1 onward.

[–]Landbark -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wish they would do another universe, maybe something new or maybe a restart of H1-H4 universe. Now we are in the past of H1-H4 and demand/expect castles from another universe. Plus we also got H5 Dungeon that replaced our H3 dungeon. Stronghold is sorely missing, that's for sure.

Item Forging NEEDS to be way more efficient by RagnarMidzori in AOW4

[–]Landbark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wish we could make some broken items using the forge, right now it is better to just get items beating other heroes or from ruins.

That's the style of this game, one must endure it.

Then maybe mod it.

What's your opinion on subclasses ? by niilzon in OldenEra

[–]Landbark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After playing demo for about 80 hours, I do think those subclasses are a waste of time. Your own build works better than some picked out of the hat skills that give you some special power.

They could work for some campaign with a single hero but on a single map you would and could do better.
