Motherfucker!!! Is there anything that announces your RTS campaign as nothing but a tutorial for multiplayer when you include a glacially paced unlocking tech tree? It's been awhile since I played HoMM3's campaign, but I don't remember it being this restricting. Once you get past the tutorial campaign, you can play a campaign for each faction, starting the tech tree over for each one. Motherfucker!!!
Maybe it's all an intentional ploy to get you to play multiplayer. I've never seen such obnoxious promotions for social media in a game. You have to log into ubisoft's service before starting and are immediately hit with three different Twitter news update windows (mostly blank due to my browser's noscript). In-game achievements get you points you trade in at Ubisoft.com to unlock avatars for their forums or some shit. Finding out what I could get involved going through 3 more Twitter pages.
As far as I can tell the only major changes are being able to resurrect your hero and convert towns to your faction type. You also can't take over mines until you take the closest town. This was supposedly done to remove annoying "junk" heroes from sniping your mines.
Another change is making hero leveling unnecessarily complicated. 6 different branching talent point trees all dependent on your hero's "blood or tears" points based off of moral choices FUCK YOU BIOWARE.
Why does each installment insist on making the town screen more and more dull and indistinct?
Neutral creatures aren't anywhere near as obnoxious as HoMM5, and you actually get to fight enemy heroes, but the super restricted tech tree ends up making both just as dull. I'll have to see how quickly it lets you actually use all the units. |
