Fantastic!
I need to start by saying two things. One, I love HOMM 2 and 3 but I am one of the worst players of the either game. I do not mind 6 either (more on this later). And the second thing is, when I first played HOMM 5, back around the time it had recently came out, I remember hating it. No lip sync, the textures felt ugly, the camera control was hopeless, story seemed cheesy. I uninstalled very quickly. Fast forward to 12 years later, I am having such a blast with this game. Before I played any of these games, however, I played number 6. I still love the unit and animations of 6. Some of the units in 5 are same as 6 - but of course much lower res-, however, some are super experimental. Some of the designs are hit, some are misses for me. So, I tend to prefer HOMM 6 personally. Having said that, the way they approached to map building and story feels fresh and really awesome. It feels more like a grounded world rather than a playground; so not a boardgame board with pieces if you will. I really hope they try this type of approach, if ever, in the future they make another title. Another weird thing about this game is, I have played HOMM through to number 6 bar number 4, and this game's campaign at "easy" is easier than easy. Like, other HOMM game's easy actually kick my ass. I cannot even beat them! Having said that, I am in too early of the campaign, perhaps, it will get harder. Or, for the first time in HOMM game, I may have to increase the difficulty! *gasp* All in all, I'd say this is an awesome edition to the series. I would say it competes the number 1 spot for HOMM3 for me personally. I still like some of the design choices of number 3, so it still kind of remains number 1 for me haha. But then HOMM 5 cutting sooo close. If you are looking to dip your toes into the series, and you don't mind some old gfx (still look decent at highest setting with AA etc.) this is the perfect place to start! Highly recommend!
