I just ran into this on youtube. This mod looks very kewl. It's kind of like a preview.

THIS EXCITES ME GREATLY. :))))))))))))))))))

I don't understand what this is. Has he modded Homm2 to look like Homm3 or is he using Homm3 to play Homm2 scenarios or ... ?

It looks like HoMM3 modded to impersonate HoMM2.

The Mage Guild looks weird now, in HoMM3 it has at least the background, this is just a bunch of scrolls here and there.

Pretty much it is a bastard child of those two games. IMO meh.

It's cool that they want to try and update Heroes of Might and Magic 2's "graphics" a little. But I honestly already like how Heroes of Might and Magic 2 looks and plays.

I always liked the 2nd one the most out of the 6... haha, well, there's 6 now apparently. And I always liked how the 2nd one looked too, I always thought it looked the best out of the bunch.

To me, Heroes of Might and Magic 2 is already perfect :).

Totally agree, graphics-wise. HoMM3 introduced some really nice new features, but I really liked the graphics in HoMM2. That whole era spanning from Might & Magic 3 through HoMM2 where they used a sort of Disney-ish art style was really a golden era for the franchise.

This is the main reason I ended up buying HoMM2, to be honest. I've never played HoMM games before, but I've always heard so much about 3 being the best of the series. After looking at screenshots for HoMM2, I thought 'why does this look so much better than HoMM3?' and ended up buying them both during the sale!
