The destroyer is walking the land once again. The legendary Planeswalker Escaton has been seen in Jadame and the very elements themselves have felt his presence. In the four corners of the world, gates to the planes of Fire, Air, Earth and Water have opened and denizens of those realms are sweeping across the lands, devastating all in their path. Lead a band of rugged adventurers on a mission of utmost peril to save the kingdoms from ruin, or watch as the lands are devastated forever.
This is my favorite game of all time. I especially like the dragons & always add them to my party.
But I have been having trouble getting it to work in the latest versions of Windows.
It's ok, though it does introduce some fundamental changes,
For example, this is the only MM game where you start with 1 character and add others as you find them while adventuring.
It also is the only MM game where you can actually have a dragon character, even 2 if you wish. Once levelled these dragons are extremely powerful.
If you wanted more of MM7, this is basically an expansion pack. The major difference is you make 1 character, then you recruit the other 4 members of your party. From fighters, to mages, to dragons and vampires. The advantage being you can switch party member for particular tasks.
Acromage reutrns, as well as staples like the obleisk quests. In this version, however, blasters are not present, so bear in mind there will be no deus ex in the final levels.
Downsides
The "new" character classes are just normal ones given a coat of paint; Vamps are Fighter-priests, Dark elves fighter-mages, etc.
All the "hirelings" will be better than your charcter for the 1st 1/3 of the game.
If you had "enough" MM7, you'll proabaly not enjoy this one. As I said, this is less a sequel and more an expansion.
NOTE
There is a patch available that allows you to continue during the last dungeon; Search MM8 Grayface to find it.
WAS, about to go and find the hard case copies or box copies, no need i picked all these up for £6 on sale which is a bargian, im 25 but as a kid at age 8 i remember my mother allowing my one day to do what ever i wanted, which was to actually play this all day, with breaks of course!!! amazing games, wish now they did another in this style instead of what they did to mmx legacy...
I still own might and magic VIII but due to the engine in the game it would not play. $5.99 was such small price to bring back some of my favourite gaming memories. It to this day has some of the best Alchemy mechanism of any RPG and Arcomage is a awesome mini game.
