Yes, a real 3.
So the "great classic", I've played it for quite some time, so I'll write my opinion here. (This review will contain criticism, so if you don't like it, you don't have to read it) The positives: A brilliant fantasy world, great stories, the factions are well thought out, the whole world has a system, history, interesting things and of course Sandro the great. The gameplay is understandable, certain situations really require strategies, the different bonuses of the characters make the fights especially interesting and exciting, and it all has a great atmosphere and charm. I really liked certain campaigns, especially Kilgor's campaign, Gelu's campaign, Mutare's campaign and Xeron's campaign and Yog' campaign. The negatives: The ai and gameplay are often too unforgiving and difficult. It's not an excuse that I'm lame or that if I don't like it, I'll play on a harder level. No, the game gives respect to the player, that it doesn't put on a continuous show, that it always plays meanly and in many cases you have to sweat blood even from your bones to achieve success. There are some very cheat suspicious things in it. The opponent can often move more than me at the same terrerain without artifacts, even without the difficulty level and script, he/she brings armies out of nowhere, he/she reads my thoughts. What was finally the final straw was that the game kept crying and explaining that this and that land is not suitable for this magic, you can't use this and that here, it's an anti-magical area, you can't do this and that. I'm sorry, but I didn't develop the character, learn op spells, prepare the battle and pay the electricity bill for a game to be so limited while the opponent can do almost anything. The "build an impregnable castle out of nothing or gravel" philosophy contains too many exaggerations here and suppressed the atmosphere of the game. Among the campaigns that never more: New Beginning, Armageddon's Blade, Song for the Father So yeah, typical 3.
