HoMM3 is one of those games I'll still play when I'm 60 (I'm 25). I remember first seeing people play it, it was so strange and the characters seemed so out of place. There was no scale in this 2D world, where goblins are as tall as a mountain and where a mounted hero carrying armies in his pocket is as big as 1/8 of a big, heavily fortified city. It just didn't make sense, even if its setting is a fantasy world.
