Super Retro Review: Heroes of Might and Magic III

[RetroBro]

Hey guys!

Heroes of Might and Magic III is one of my favorite PC games of all time... and I made a "Super Retro Review" of it! I doubt many of you actually know what HoMM is... but it's worth a shot. Any support or comments are appreciated, I love talking about the game in every detail! :D

I actually just discovered HoMM through a friend not too long ago, and HoMM3 was the first I played. I always ran, uh... Necropolis just because I love it when games let me play as undead.

Comments about the video: You've got a really solid voice, good volume and all that, so I don't think there's any technical problems. The only thing I could suggest is maybe an explanation of why the .5 of a point was dropped. I'm assuming due to some of the less-well-aged parts?

Either way, solid video! Liked and subbed, definitely wanting to see more.

Awe thanks man! That means a lot to me!

I really don't like my voice at all

But I'm at work and I'll edit up a response when I get home! XD

No worries, no worries. I'm in a similar boat; people tell me I have a REALLY nice voice, but good god does it sound so 'eugh' and not pleasant to my own ears.

Hahaha! I feel like most people feel that way.

Anyways, I plan on holding the games I review in my retro series up to the standards of today. The gameplay is pretty much flawless for what genre it is. The graphics and artistic direction are confusing. Sometimes I feel like I can look at the game and it's truly a marvel. But, other times it's really hard for me to look at the game even for it being the 1990s. Definitely some eyesores :/

Fair enough, yeah; the town screen in particular took a while to get used to for me.

Haha, well! I really do appreciate your commentary. It means a lot to see anyone looking at that video. I'm trying to get into game programming and journalism at the same time (I'm currently attending college for software development). I already have a bachelors in English :D
