One of my favourite games ever!

I remember when I was much younger I bought it in one of the local shops. At first I got killed by pirates, later by guards... But some time later, as I got better (at finding NPCs) I realised this game has an insane potential - and the save files are easy to edit, thus my main character became a dragon. Story is ok, perhaps nothing super epic, but it's good - and by today's standard it's more than good taking how boring many modern games are - plot wise. The really remarkable part of this game however is the mechanics. Offers incredible freedom including flight, unique powers and races that normally represent monsters that get killed by heroes.

Einer der besten Teile

Teil 1-5 sind Klassiker die mir jedoch eher nicht gefallen hatten damals und heute. Teil 6-10 finde ich heute noch sehr gut spielbar, aber der Achte ist meiner Meinung nach der Beste.

Good entry into Might and Magic series.

This is a good entry in Enroth/Erathia/Jadame trilogy, though not as good as the first two (6 and 7). The game has a better graphics than 6 and 7, quite good story and good quests. You can play different races that are substitute for classes of the previous games (for example, Dark Elf is very close to the Archer class of M&M 7). You can even have dragons in your party. But on the negative side it has smaller world, smaller dungeons and it is much easier than previous entries. Once you get a dragon, the rest of the game is a easy. You also get a lot of experience for the quests leveling up quickly (bounty hunter guild quest gives you more than a million of the experience on the last level). There are too many relics and artifacts as well. There are bugs, but besides the crash entering Escaton palace (which you can avoid by lowering all sounds to 0 in control menu for the moment of entrance), nothing breaking the game. The game also removes SciFi settings, except for the last cut scene, so you will not be shooting blasters. The game works well on Linux with WINE, provided (as for any 32-bit game) you add 32-bit graphics drivers and log-in via X, not Wayland. Overall this is my least favorite out of M&M 6, 7 and 8, but it is still very good

An uneven experience

While M&M VIII is not considered the black sheep of the latter years of the series like IX is, it's certainly one of the games that truly shows its age. While some interesting features were added, most of them are a bit half-baked (racial classes) and generally don't make up for the lost of content, sense of free-roam exploration and cohesion that its two predecessors had. In my opinion of this engine-trilogy, M&M7 is the sweet spot. 6's enemy count is out of control, like some sort of stress test, while 8's spread is a bit meager outside of the unicorn forest. There's fewer areas than in the previous games, very little dichotomy or in the way of path choices, and very little in the way of new music or enemy sprites. The fifth character helps with the gear carrying, but it's mostly a crutch due to the poor skill spread and lack of multiple class-ups. I wouldn't recommend this one until after at least 6 and 7 are exhausted, and by then you'll probably have had enough retreating and firing bows for one lifetime. Mediocre features, story and content don't stop Day of the Destroyer from doing its job, but it's a half-assed job it does.

One of the best original Open World RPGs

This installment is not going to be as fun for everyone, but it has some of the most original elements of the entire series. The game is fairly easy compared to the previous two which seem to use the same engine. The aesthetics of the game are somewhat less appealing than it's prequels, MM6 and MM7; the dungeons and world are also smaller, but it's difficult to beat the overall sense of epic fantasy thats provided without overloading on caricature fantasy with exaggerated phenotypes slathered in special effects for a million buffs such as in the Ubisoft might and magic world has become. Although the 3DO might and magic world goes from neophytes beating on goblins to heroes flying around in the sky, it will feel authentic and down to earth compared to today's generic, cumbersome, cluttered austentatious tacky World of Warcraft ripoffs. You will have the most unique selection of classes and races and can change both the number and type of characters in your party. This makes the game more focused on developing your characters vs exploring and allows you to choose how much of a challenge you want. Ever want to go it alone? Now you can attempt to beat the game solo, or with up to 5 characters. This game currently lacks the availability of mods which the previous two games had. If you're familiar with how to extract files and tinker with it, you can adjust how the items look and how tough enemies are to provide more challenges and rewards. For example, I like to severely limit how long the "fly" spell can be cast and since I like to play with one character at a time, I also like to change the availability of certain skills. Be sure to check online for the 'mouse look patch' and other tweaks on Greyface's Might and Magic website to experience the game more fluidly and without as many bugs.
