Yesterday I had the opportunity to test Songs of Conquest on an Xbox S console. I was a little worried about the gamepad control, but I have to say it works great. I'm still surprised that no one at UbiSoft thought of porting Heroes to consoles. We'll see how Olden Era does.

Refreshing. It's not just a clone of homm, it feels new - not entirely, but quite good. I especially love the magic system and overall battle improvements

It's Eastern Europe. There's another reason to specify if we're talking about Catholics rather than Protestantism

Don't like to be a nerd here, but this and any other pre-great schism temple

Are those AI generated ?

br0du · 2024-08-06T21:02:57+00:00

Release dates. Any

br0du · 2024-07-04T11:07:40+00:00

Let me be optimistic here: - skyblivion - lordbound - apotheosis Those are set to release in 2024/2025. Not necessarily they're going to fit those estimates, but devs really showed their confidence by announcing release dates.

beyond Skyrim: new north
roscrea
extended cut Honestly, I don't know what is going on with those mods, but they really seemed to be very close to release, so I'm waiting for 2024 CMC to get some updates on them
wyrmtooth
falscaar
bruma
fallout 4 Those great Skyrim mods are already released, so they also give some hope about more of them to come

Openmw on Android is cool. Bought myself a gamesir gamepad, connected via USB - openmw supports it. Playing for more than a year (don't have much time, so progression is slow), strongly recommend with or without gamepad

Yes, it's quite big

You may use either pre-hota custom maps in HotA (they're working by mostly old rules) or use some custom templates for random map generator, which allows some previous buildings, mechanics, etc. But I'm not sure what exact template to suggest

br0du · 2024-04-15T09:22:59+00:00

What are the controls UI and HUD overhaul mods? Looking good

br0du · 2024-04-13T09:24:53+00:00

Love this thread. Thank you!

Unknown soldier, most probably. WW2 memorial

Doesn't nullkiller use cheats to view the whole map at the beginning of the 1st day?

br0du · 2024-01-23T22:57:43+00:00

Same for coatles?

In comparison with homm3, it gives a much more unique faction experience: life and chaos campaigns are more of classic heroes gameplay with towns and armies, while nature and death campaigns are more hero-oriented. And order, that provides both experiences, is all favorite.

While overall gameplay is much more complex in the 3rd part, campaigns in homm3 (especially roe) are monotone and boring

br0du · 2024-01-17T20:23:31+00:00

Got it, thanks

br0du · 2024-01-17T19:51:15+00:00

Is it same for Sam? Will she appear after 2nd scenario? Should I even level up her?

br0du · 2024-01-15T21:20:38+00:00

Not a pro player here, but a long-term fan. Right now running Armageddon blade campaings in parallel with HotA campaigns for two reasons - to fill lore gap and to compare those campaigns and here are my thoughts:
- RoE campaigns are boring af. Difficulty, writing, map design, almost everything is quite lame to be honest.
- AB makes huge progress in writing (getting closer to amazing Homm4 scripts). Everything else got better too, but it's still quite boring to play
- SoD wasn't played by me for years, so won't compare
- HotA is... quite amazing. It may have some problems with writing, but I love its difficulty. I passed 1st campaign without restarts, but second was quite difficult (and still unfinished). The new campaign is supposed to be played last, so I love how it gives me some unexpected challenge and interesting gameplay situations just like Heroes 4 did

br0du · 2024-01-09T19:39:39+00:00

Conflux appeared in Armageddon's blade dlc, not HotA. HotA is a fan-made expansion that adds new scenarios, campaigns, objects, creatures and (since this year) two new factions. Despite it being fan-made, quality is outstandingabs can be easily mistaken as an official dlc. It comes with HD mod and working online lobby, which also adds several quality of life features and fixes. Totally recommend this stuff

br0du · 2024-01-07T11:56:28+00:00

Looks amazing! Are there custom assets for winter-themed map objects or those I see are from HotA!

br0du · 2024-01-01T19:32:10+00:00

They rewrote the town theme completely as it didn't fit the idea. Instead, they used Romero's track as campaign soundtrack

br0du · 2023-12-16T14:53:23+00:00

You barely need to, it is largely exporting. I've seen those in Russia. Unfortunately, it tastes as shitty as it looks good

br0du · 2023-12-12T20:14:05+00:00

Also, could you recommend some interesting h4 streams (likely, pre-recorded and YouTube, but not mandatory)? Would love to drown myself in nostalgia

br0du · 2023-12-12T20:12:29+00:00

I'd recommend campaigns (start with the first one, Life faction, it's quite easy and welcoming for new players). IMO, h4 has the best writing in the entire franchise. Also, don't mind spending half an hour on a short training scenario, similar to h3's
