Might & Magic® Heroes® VII

unbalanced af

I'd love to be able to play this game again and give it more of a proper try but the genius minds at Ubicrap cannot seem to program properly so now whenever I try loading up the game it insta crashes or just a black screen after the usual 'Warning Read before playing'. The old workaround for this used to be launching the pointless Ubisoft Connect in offline mode but yet again the genius minds at the failed company Ubisoft removed the ability to do that.

[h1]Heroes 7... a mixed experience[/h1] This review is based on playing through the campaigns, as that is the only way I like to play heroes games. There are a lot of interesting things about this game, but it suffers from issues that I think stem from it being underfunded back in the day. Story: Noteably worse than previous series, which comes from the game being "stories within stories". [u]Downs:[/u] Balance issues between 'might' and 'magic'. Magic heroes are generally incredibly overpowered. Far more so than in previous titles, as a single spell can eradicate even large armies. (Leading to some maps, where you have to keep away from one specific hero in order to beat it. Since heroes generally do not get removed by defeating them, you want to minimize fights against high level magic heroes.) The enemies seem to rush your heroes, leading to the difficulty being placed early on in the map when they come for you. If you survive them, then finishing up the match is a long slow move. No Inferno/demon faction. The game is set in the wonderful Ashan, where demons are so core antagonist to everyone else, that you need them for the stories. However, inferno lost a vote back in the day, so demon units are still included for stories... but now neutral creatures rather than as a faction. [u]Ups/positives:[/u] It looks very beautiful. Talents/ability points are chosen from a wheel, but same faction has different wheels between their subclasses of might and magic heroes. Which gives more variety. A lot of interesting units. Particularly love the focus on the wolf-duchy rather than more griffins for the humans. Two different champion tier units, letting you chose your favorite, though in most maps if playing against same faction it makes same to pick the same that they use. Caravans making sure you do not have to run between towns, flanking, and a lot of other nice elements returning.

Привет народ! Я фанат этой игры, играю в нее с 2й части , почти 30 лет. Игра просто бомба, не могу отлипнуть от компа, затягивает очень сильно. Седьмая часть мне очень понравилась, Немного изменилась графика, сюжеты интересные. В игре понравились краски, очень все красиво, как в картинной галереи, очень классный визуал. Очень интересная боевая система, суперский саундтрек. Геймплей очень хороший. Игра не для всех т.к. очень медленный темп. Подойдет под средник ПК. Очень жду продолжение серии. Рекомендую всем кто уважает пошаговые стратегии.

Broken... SP works more or less fine, but as soon as you want to play online or with friends... forget it! Even SP has many bugs...

Leider das schlechteste Heroes Game, was ich bis jetzt gespielt habe. - Die Kamera dreht sich total "globig". - Man kann selbst auf "normaler Schwierigkeit" alle Kämpfe skippen, weil sie zu einfach sind - Die Kampagne macht leider gar keinen Spaß. Man hat nahezu niemals eine Festung um sich was aufzubauen, sondern startet irgendwo im Nirgendwo mit überpowerten Einheiten.
