Those were awesome as well. I just remembered the necropolis faction as well, I think it was in 3 that you could get insane numbers of skeletons / skeleton archers. Probably 5 as well.
I think the NPCs did that in KCD1 if you were dirty, had high charisma but a fancy armor or similar. It feels like it works similarly in KCD2, since their demeanor changes significantly when switching from peasant clothes to a proper armor. Don’t have knights armor or any other fancy outfits yet though, so I can’t tell for KCD2.
Songs of Conquest is a spiritual successor you might be interested in checking out. I agree HoMM3 is still great to revisit and SoC doesn’t quite scratch the exact same itch but it’s a good way to get more of the same but with some variety keeping it fresh
Am I the only one who really liked HoMM 4? I reinstall that every couple of years. Loved the fact the heroes were more active in combat. HoMM 3 is great too of course.
To be honest, it’s still a little hectic for me, but I feel the most notable change is that you can avoid being countered / masterstriked. By positioning your weapon, you can block, perfect block (allows you to strike back) or masterstrike which remains unblockable. There is now an interesting back and forth between blocking, striking back and being blocked, which can go on forever - until someone has no stamina left or someone pulls off a masterstrike.
Interesting! Is it still hard as heck in 1v2? The first game lock your target in combat by default and it’s hard to see, react, or shift between enemies, the game simply not allow me to do so reliably that i keep dying very early into the game. I remember i have to mod it to make it so it’s easier to do so.
Yes, you don’t want to fight against more than one enemy, the game even has a tutorial with a stylistic drawing of you lining up the enemies in a line, so that only one can engage you at any time. I managed to pull this off with two enemies, with three you would need to tank some hits.
With Grand Theft Auto I would say you could start anywhere. Each game features a different protagonist and they play quite different to each other.
I would say playing 4 before 5 is probably a good idea because it doesn’t feel like as much of a tremendous leap compared to going from Vice City to San Andreas. Going from 5 back to 4 would probably make things like the car physics stand out even more.
