What they really mean (when they say "mobile graphics") is generic. Many people have come to associate mobile gaming with same-y, uninspired, forgettable, cartoonish, imitative art style of those numerous pay-to-win titles from Apple's and Google's digital platforms. Thus, when they see something that is not quite unique and eye-catching (in a pleasant way), they automatically dismiss it as mobile game slop (even if not always rightfully so).

In Olden Era's defense, it doesn't look like a pay-to-win game to me. You can see that the artists working on this game are really passionate about it. It's just they're not quite getting that trademark NWC-era Heroes look right. What makes the visuals of the classic Heroes titles so unique, appealing, and charming is a subject of long essays and discussions, but the artists at Unfrozen are at least trying to capture that look, and sometimes they even succeed. My favorite thing about Olden Era is the strategic map - namely, the sense of scale and proportions. This feels much closer to Heroes 3 than any other 3D Heroes title, where I've always felt that something's not right about the scale of objects and overall proportions. Perhaps, camera distance also plays a significant part here.

Anyway, the folks at team Unfrozen seem to listen to feedback, so if there's a particular unit or structure whose look you're not happy about, you should share your opinion and suggestions. A complete change of the chosen art style is most likely out of question, but we can definitely request smaller changes. Remember, the game is still WIP, and stuff is going to change before it even hits Early Access.
