They said that their magic system is different. Instead of having a fixed mana pool the heroes army gives your hero more mana to used. To balance this out the team have made it so that you cannot have units from other factions.

>>1051690
I will be getting this game but I think that the Frogs will not be treated correctly. Their lore is that of dumb tribes people who were oppressed instead of the bloodthirsty predators that they should be.

tennativly hyped. waiting to see what 4chan has to say about since I won't form an opinion with out them

it looks better (graphically) than that Hero's Quest or whatever the new HOMM-esque game is called. I don't like the art in that game at all

>>1051862
it has that swedish feel for sure but it's not egregious in 40 minutes of playtime. there are two human factions, one white and one black. the former is european inspired, the latter seem more like arabs.

It's also on GOG so I'll try it before spending 30 bucks on it

How is it?

>>1051869
>no plans for neutral units
Wrong, they changed that and added some neutrals like bandits, they will probably include more
>cannot recruit units of different factions
You can, if you capture their town
>units will have abilities
Some of them do some dont, its not that bad and some add to strategy (eg sappers can create barricades on the map)
>max stack size for units
Thats a good change, finally different playstyles are viable, instead of rushing for max tier creatures you can easily invest into buffing and production of tier 1 2 and 3 and still have a viable army
>limited build slots for towns
Otherwise it would be unballanced, you can have for eg 4 buildings pumping out tier one creatures or 4 lumber mills if you want
>battlefield terrains
Adds more complexity to the game, now you can create chokepoints or seize high ground with ranged units, much welcomed change

I'm playing my first game as them in skirmish (cuz there are only 2 campaigns for now and loth ain't one of them) and, unfortunately, it seems that you cannot roleplay Sandro. I haven't figured out how necromancy works yet, but you can't just amass skellies, I occasionaly get a promt for arisen units, but they are poopy zombies that were only good for cannon fodder for now. Kinda hard to get a big stack going.

As for Loth heroes, I haven't seen any interesting or unique specializations, it's all just minor attack/defence buffs, bonus essence and whatnot.

>>1052038
And from their looks or backgroundstory? What are there portraits?

>>1052038

Why so defensive
His post wasn't criticising the game

>>1052065
I couldn't find any description for the heroes outside of the recruiting screen, and even there it's just one sentence, supposedly a quote from the hero that's meant to tell us more about their personality. It's pretty barebones, but there's a decent variety of portraits.
There are also some random pop-up events that mention heroes specifically, I don't know yet if it just grabs $CURRENT_HERONAME to display, or whether the events could be unique for every different hero.

>>1052067
Yeah, that's what I'm doing, but I have to ferry them, and also it's not the same as a self-sufficient stack that keeps growing with every battle, which is a quintessential HoMM necromancer power fantasy

Okay first I was like "not having a wait button is criminal", but now AI is using it against me. Meanwhile I can't find it. Is it troop-specific? I noticed that I didn't have the defend button, but it appears now for my skellies, so I guess that was tied to some upgrade?

I like the artstyle, also city building seems to have you make actual choices which is interesting, didn't try but i wonder if you can replace buildings required for some upgrades once those are done

Oh yes desu this one didn't cross my mind yet but you save me from doing it in the futur.

Got the game despite the EA, I just needed anything since HoTA is in frozen state and HoMM franchise is dead in the gutter.
While it limit of stacks for certain ability level, has limit of numbers in each stack for specific unit and it having not as much content as you would expect for 100 złoty, the amount of detail is way, way more than we ever got in Ubisoft era Heroes.

Every "hero" has their own unique sprite on the map and full unique artwork on equipment menu. Barya and Rana seem pretty damn fun without them just replicating something that exists (Barya somehow feels like Academy and Barbarians combined. Rana is Citadel, but they also have shit like ranged units that poison). I do like the fact that if you try to escape from melee unit's range, they automatically attack making them almost as good as lot of ranged units. And yeah, terrain difference is nice.

Fully functional map and campaign editor on the EA release gives me high hopes. Campaign being told from bard song is pretty is comfy. Most importantly it's not just trying to go for generic Tolkien fantasy and is much closer to HoMM2 aesthetic wise. Music's also good, sadly most of it is still no anywhere available. If you want true successor I would either wait for more factions or community made shit.
Currently I'd give it 7-8/10. More if you are really desperate for another Heroes game after VI and VII that is nothing like those games.

>>1052403

>>1051750
>I will be getting this game but I think that the Frogs will not be treated correctly. Their lore is that of dumb tribes people who were oppressed instead of the bloodthirsty predators that they should be.

From what I've played frogs are both opressed people who become the predators over the fact they've realized the finally stand a chance since now they have magic and heroes to lead them around. Also humans working with horned faeys that totally won't turn out to be remnants of demons or something. It seems that only undead are played straight here.

>releases
No it fucking doesn't, it hits early access. I get that anymore nobody releases actually finished software but I draw the fucking line at calling Early Access a "release". At least keep up the fucking pretense.

>turn based
fucking YAWN

>Horrible art style
>Woke diversity characters
Not looking good bros.

These games look fun but I get bored with the combat after a few hours each time. Tried HoMM3, Wesnoth, and King's Bounty and I've never finished a campaign.

>>1053527
Art actually looks pretty nice. Some detailed pixel work. I'm just disappointed it's turn based, which is going to turn combat into a series of logic puzzles if there's no RNG mechanics or a tedious slog if there are.

>>1053527
>Horrible art style
Hmmm curious, what your standard for good art style?

I'm honestly getting more King's Bounty vibes than HoMM vibes from actually playing the game. The army limitations and magic system makes the game very different from HoMM that easily became just competitive cheesing. It's not a bad thing though, gives more chances of comeback and somewhat limits braindead snowballing, though time will tell if it is good fun even if it is more balanced.

One thing I'm kinda disappointed about is how the factions are a bit meh, Rana and Loth got identity of their own but the other two are just some pretty generic humans + some less generic fantasy creatures. At least they are not just elves and shit.

>>1053527
>horrible art style

Why does nobody like putting in LOS in their games? It is such a great mechanic that helps balance range units and not make them completely OP.

The only thing that looks bad are the closeups on strategic map. I'm actually surprised how well homm2 sprites still look scaled up, but at the same time the difference in detail on some units is staggering. Homm2 units also had very basic animations, idles and attacks in SoC are much better.

>>Red Hair who wants to restore her dead father's land.
Nope, it doesnt. But after playing first 2 missions of campaign she seems based despite being a w*man. Autistically upholds the law, wants foreigners to fuck off from their land and honors her late father decisions. I hope they dont ruin her character in the future.

>Spamming low tier trash units is a viable strategy in SoC
G-d i love this decision so much, finally i can make hordes of low tier skeletons and still keep up with enemy high tier units due to upgrades and hero specializations, also due to the fact that there are army number limitations now that actually enrich gameplay.

>>1054131
skeletons are not fodder in this game, they are really fucking strong actually

>>1054135
I know but they are low tier unit that can be produced from small building site, therefore in one city you can have 3 or more buildings pumping out skeletons exclusively. With is fucking awesome if you ask me.

>>1053732
>LoS is a fucking nightmare for little actual gain.
But it isn't. HoMM4 had it in 2002 for spells and ranged attacks. It's a great way to protect vulnerable heroes or shooters from getting nuked on the first turn.

this game did two very smart things
>melee attacks units that move out of range
>ranged can shoot and move with penalty

It's roughly what I expected, but it actually exceeded my expectations for the better.
I expected a decent game that's rough around the edges and missing any sort of content, a perfect purchase in a year or two, but it's not as bad in either and I ended up buying it with a friend.
There's definitely a lot to improve and balance, but we can probably see it get there within months.

I just won entire multiplayer map by focusing solely and only on rat units and dear god it was amazing.
I don't care how Necromancy works or if other Loth units like Legions are good in this. Just spamming rats which seemed like a braindead move and unless you know how to counter it, you're fucked and I won't be surprised if both skellies and rats will be nerfed. It's also probably why necromancy gives you zombies instead of either of those.

The opposite is also good with Barya's best unit, the cannon, which is worth the wait, because it's both ranged and AoE and once you can produce and upgrade them, you are pretty much settled.

So far each faction has several different ways to play them, which is great and will help the game's sustainability once more factions will be added. I just hope they won't change how low tier and high tier unit balance works. They can change the magic and anything else, but so far the units are what impressed me the most.

You say that, but appearently according to the campaign and the game's site, most 'people of color' you autists are complaining about aren't actually humans, they're Harima, their version of orcs.
HoMM3 has just as many actual black skinned humans as this game if not more. This is one of those rare example where no one's being woke here, you're just projecting your nightmares for the sake of a bait.

turns out even for a game this pretty I think the HoMM style gameplay loop is just boring. i dont feel like I ever have any actual meaningful choice in these games. you start a skirmish and are surrounded by items and stuff, so you spend turns collecting it all, flagging stuff along the way, maybe get a few more units before busting the next big burrow, rinse and repeat. i want to like this sort of thing so bad but everytime I play it it feels braindead.

The game will never be nearly as popular as HoM&M was precisely because 'people' like you.

You need to play a game where the difficulty is upped considerably (1v7FFA expert). If that is too hard you tone it down. The games are fun when you are actually challenged and need to use the tools the game gives you.

>>1054833
I feel somewhat the same. The powering up loop feels fine for me, but in the end all games turn out to be about logistics and everything feels snowballing if fail or win in it. Even "pro' pvp Heroes players just quit before the main battle, because it is meaningless - one side is much stronger than the other or is catched in an unlucky moment.
With that game I felt the same - you constantly chase enemy heroes or are caught by them. Otherwise the game feels solid - the battles are fun for me, economy, magic and other systems work, which is rare in modern day.

But as far as I remember, 50% of the time thw match was decided by who spotted who first and caught offguard - the main hero often travels without army or with only fastes units to have more move points. 40% it was obvious that one was way ahead of the other - in one turn they like 10 angels vs 3 angels and it was meaningless. To have meaningful a final battle you need relatively close armies, which is rare.
Songs of Conquest replicates HoMM3 gameplay pretty close in campaigns. Which is fine, but the logistics turns out to be too important, just like in Heroes. The logistics is just not that fun.

>old=bad
>new=gooooood
>omnomnomnomnom, consoom and don't ask questions!
The pic in>>1053996 is pretty great at showing how they fucked up the sprites.
Instead of the clear, eloquent art-style they went for edgy blur that fucking obscures or outright distorts the details on the unit as an attempt to hide the fact their artist either is a hack or severely underpaid.

>>1055323
I know this is going to be a radical opinion but hear me out.
Old = Sometimes good
New = Sometimes good

>>1055339
>old=sometimes good

>>1055342
Objectively correct. An older game is categorically more likely to be good than a new game since too many games these days release as utter garbage and become playable months or years later

>>1055323
>edgy blur that fucking obscures or outright distorts the details
the fuck? goatman in soc looks more detailed than the heroes one
are you saying artist is a hack because you can't see the face of the human units or something? holy shit

>>1055319
As much as I love HoMM3, I definitely get what you mean. I feel like SoC is trying to mitigate that idea of the game being decided before a fight even occurs by implementing unit stack caps and limiting the ammount of heroes that you can have out at once. Whether or not it'll actually work out the way its intended is another thing that we'll only see in time, but I think it's a neat idea and hopefully they can manage to solve that issue.

>>1053996
You might call me blind but i like the sprites on the left more.

>>1055436
So do you just go into every thread where people are talking about games and call them a shill, or only games that you personally don't like?

>>1055442

i do prefer 4X games. but I wanted to give this a go because at least on the surface it wasnt just trying to jerk it to HoMM3. im not anti this aren't going to refund, but idk I was just hoping for a real mix up of the design.

>>1055194
yeah don't get me wrong - the game totally crushes it at all the stuff its trying to do and it feels like a worthy successor to the genre. but it's still very much in that lineage, and isnt going to really find new converts.

>>1055436
This. It's really painfully obvious which posters are paid shills. Especially those that are running damage control over the abundant inclusion of antique farming equipment. Imagine how braindead your company has to be to put that in the sort of game that antique farming equipment literally never plays.

>>1055461
>>1055442
The games from the times before have already made their money and are much less likely to have paid shills than the fresh projects which need to make a buck

I'm sorta new to this game genre but it's always annoying to me how you have to make a conga line of heroes to supply your main hero with troops. At least that's how it was in homm3 is it the same here?

Obvious shills.

>>1056284
There's an inexpensive building that can be placed in any town and lets you recruit units from every single city you have which alleviates that problem.

>>1056284
>>1056314
you will still want conga lines to multiply the number of actions you take per turn, won't you? Or is this game like Disciples where engaging in a battle consumes 80% of your movement points?

>>1056284
>>1056377
Probably still an issue, but at least there's a hero cap tied to town count, so you can't drop 8 heroes day 1.

kind of too multiculti for me
I don't mind having varied factions but make them consistent
also overall there is little content
4 factions
2 short campaign
only few skirmish maps
also noticed that there is quite high stat inflation
I like that settlements are different in size and tactical battles but it feel that it would be better utilized in game more similar to Kings Bounty or Eador
well its EA after all
also big complain for slow movement on map, loading between battles and long enemy turns

Stormpire filtered me I played too wide instead of tall

It would be cool if the faction was 'the good guys' on paper but would commit one atrocity after another, for the player to only realize half way through the campaign that they are playing evil humans enslaved by demons, "fey" being an euphemism, a lie told to the populace years ago when the *alliance* was first forged.
Of course that will never happen because it's $CURRENT_YEAR and we can't have nice things, only strong women.

So what is anyone's tought about this game? I'm surprisingly satisfied with it. It feels like playing HoMM again, the music is great and the each hero (Wielder) ha it's own ingame model and not just a generic one depending on their class. Merkoth is probably my fav. character.

How the fuck did they came to the conclusion that it would be OK to release it, even as paid beta, sorry, I mean "Early Access", without a random map generator?

>>1059263
random map generator is already in, you just have to go into map editor first and press a button, save it and so on. Yes, it's dumb and it's even dumber that it's not stated anywhere.

>>1059254
that probably explains it, I saw earlier comments and the knight and archer was supposed to be a man so I guess they sold out

Sorry bros I tried to like it but Ubi’s HoMM7 also mogs this despite both being unfinished.
Turns out having better town building means jackshit if the magic and combat are meh but that’s just me I guess some hardcore h3 autists could like this.

After playing through entire Rana campaign, that is technically what happens. There is one black dude that decided to free the frogs and everyone, including Harima, Undead and Fey etc. hunted him down for it.

And it's because the dude knew frogs had dragons all along. So basically, yeah, Arleon, Baria and Loth despite being different sides WILL ally just to bully Rana, because they don't want fucking dragons to bully them back (again). Fey and Arleon are just as bad as the undead and slaver faction and I really won't be surprised if the Feys will just turn out to be demons who also got either bullied into submission by humans or will backstab them or some shit.

Also people already speculate (and request) basic ghouls you're getting from necromancy to replace rats from tier 1 unit on Loth so we will have a new faction focused entirely on rats, jokingly reffered to as "Ratna", and honestly I wouldn't mind another beastfolk faction, but less with furfags and more with plague doctors, spreading diseases and shit.

So is Learning a dead skill? For a secondary wielder? Maybe I'm retarded but I just don't see it. You level up faster sure but -1 skill point kinda negates that.

>>1059466
It's fine. That skill also works for various objects that give you experience, so you can level off of those faster and get access to better secondary stuff like march or scouting

>>1059466
No, Learning is still just as bad as it was before.

Sure, I want to ambushed by enemies that spam spells and nuke my entire army in less than a turn. I think most people hate magic system because while the AI sucks in normal combat, it knows exactly how to abuse magic. Meanwhile all I know that works well is binding melee units so that they can't move and I can just defeat them from long range. God I hate this.

For the Human/Fey mission 4 you can just give all your best artifacts to Gawr (or whatever his name is), Fill his army with horned ones and as long as you manage to pick Magic resistance on level up before you encounter the mage AI hero you can roll on the map.

The two fey heroes have some super high stats for some reasons.

It's combat is real-time autobattle which was pretty meh to me but people seem to like it too. I think it leans to nostalgia too much, to the point of just copying visual stuff and unit/faction designs straight off Heroes 3 and doesn't really even try to have an identity of it's own.

Oversimplified take. (((International financiers))) were demonizing Germany and agitating for conflict years before Germany ever made a move.

When men do impossible things like beating up 30 other guys at once, punching holes in concrete, bending steel like jelly, deflecting bullets with their hands no one complains.
If you have a woman beat up a man in a fist fight suddenly it's over for western civilization.
The only conclusion is that men are so fucking retarded they actually believe they could do all those things with a bit of training.

The more I'm playing it, it does feel like they wanted to plaster woman on teaser's/first campaign and in some units, but in game it's nowhere near actually as big of a deal as people on /v/ and /vst/ seem to make it out to be. And the worst part is, I get it, at first this game just seems like another unfinished indie pixelshit in a dead genre and it has woman, so it has to be pozzed and woke.


However to put it into perspective. HoMM had:
>Entire faction in first two games ONLY led by women
>Main character of the third game's Castle campaign (she's not playable, but she's probably most important character in said campaign nonetheless) and AB campaign be a women.
>Extra two campaigns in AB are solely about two women's independent quests, one to get rid off the undead and another's to become a dragon.
>SoD's campaign protagonist is Gem alongside Gelu and our favorite barbarian
>Class of heroes for Citadel in HoMM exclusive only for women
>Actually a lot of towns starting with HoMM3 had a roughly 50/50 ratio of men and women as their heroes. Btw it took me by surprise but a lot of heroes in HoMM3 that I thought for sure were men, actually weren't, such as Thunar or Kyree.
>Guess who are the protags of biggest two campaigns (Order and Chaos) in HoMM4? That's right, women. Also the opening cinematic ends on women.
>Multiple units that over time either started as women or were turned into women for future games. Biggest example being Archers in 2, Angels in 5, Elf archers in 4, large number of units in Haven and Reserve in 5-7
>Sanctuary in HoMM6 are led mostly by female heroes, is led by female hero in the campaign and outside of Kappas, Sharks, Kenshis and probably Kirins, all of their units are female looking characters.

>>1061832
Yeah its kinda weird for a non coomer game that is not very appealing to the female public have this many women in it. but even a fag like me can handle looking at a femoid or two.

Heroes or wielders make sense as they are exceptional people but having so many women in army in roles that are not fit for them is what make this so unbelievable and strange because you cant really rationalize that all those women like pikeneers or knights in full plate armor wielding huge axes are so exceptional, gifted, magical...

The knight is a really strange decision and sounds like a political decision (it cant be a cool factor if you cant even recognize if it is woman by looking at it, just sounds, the pony tail and devs saying it is a woman). We know it is a political and not art decision because devs said the knight had a male voice and then was later changed so they changed units voices/details later for some reason... Why would they do that otherwise as it was clearly done?

Well said, the political and cultural climate has shifted so much. In older homm games these things were done much better and mostly for variety, nowadays not so much becuase you know there is an agenda behind those decisions. This reminds me of a devlog from starsector about story and character writing.

why do they sound like men and don't have boobs on their breastplates?

At least some of them definitely are given how Tyris' description doesn't make any kind of point of her being a woman anything unique.

Because based HoMM 3 devs knew to cover all the fetishes from bikini armor to boobplate to women in realistic armor.

never said or implied that
>Btw cavaliers in homm3 are also women.
Why because a single female hero? Lol the mental gymnastics you are will to go through. Meanwhile we have pegasi who have visual and written implications of being women and you dont even mention them.
When you see a picture of an orc or ape are you reminded of black people?

>>1061196
Well I can, but most guys, no.

>>1062588
Black people literally are orcs in most fantasy games. Watch Vaush & educate yourself.

>>1062610
lol, 0/10. Too obvious.

>Multiple units that over time either started as women or were turned into women for future games. Biggest example being Archers in 2
Wait, what? Source on that? They look and sound like men to me.

>>1062616
Look at the sprite. Both archers and rangers have visible boobs and wear lipstick.

I went and looked in my sprite collection, and unless "Cyrus the annihalator" was playing the long game, then you are right.

That reminds me where do Warcraft orcs come from?

>>1062678
they are literally aliens, they came through the dark portal from another planet

I was wondering which race they evolved from since elves are mutuated trolls and humans/dwarfs are former robots made by aliens. I thought they maybe came from ogres but it seems they're just a normal race that evolved on its own.

>expecting /pol/ zoomers to have played HOMM3

As much and as obvious as the whole 90% of the characters being women it didn't feel like it tried to shove any other cringey WOMEN POWER shit in your face so I'm ok with it.

The gameplay is alright but the game feels very basic right now and the world interactables feel very dull and boring compared to something like age of wonders games.
Maybe they're intentionally keeping things tame in order to keep MP balanced I guess but I'm interested to see how the game will look a year from now. but right now I don't feel motivated to go back to play a skirmish/online again.

Do high tier neutral dwellings ever spawn on random maps?
I swear, I've never seen one when playing on random maps.

Wtf, are knights really female?

I was on the edge with whole Arleon mixing Castle and Rampart, but this really beyond retarded.

maybe they mentioned it in the campaign (and then I didn't pay attention I guess) but neither of these sprites looks like a woman to me

>>1063445
Top one appears to have a ponytail draped to the front, which seems female to me.

>>1063456
Good lord, tell me the upgrade is male because this would be so retarded.
I get it is a fantasy game, but having women as frontline melee warriors is harder to swallow than talking turtles.

at 1:13:00 you can hear the knight get hit

Literally won a battle I had no business winning. I guess the eternal problem for this type of game is simply how bad the AI is. If you surround an enemy unit with walls sometimes it will waste cutting down the one behind it.
