More than once, I have started playing with my brothers after dinner, and then what seems like an hour later, my mom would come in the room and be like, "Oh you're up early. Have you had breakfast yet?"
@32:18 Oh thank God for that edit, haha. I was prepping my pitchfork. Love your channel, by the way. Makes me realize how terrible I was at this game as a kid.
I just skipped around this video and heard "EarthElelmentals could save our bacon, it's quite unlikely but they could" followed by my next skip seeing a bunch of earth elemental fighting diamond golems lol
really enjoying the heroes videos. caslte is my favourite, always has been. can you do a castle guide/review like your fantastically done dungeon one pls.
It's an interesting style of play to be sure. Feels like a lot of what the Computers do by saturating the field with heroes and spreading the army about. Not my style, I don't think it maximizes certain efficiencies, but interesting.
WOW i consider myself quite well versed in one of the games i love but i never but never played like that! Deep respect! I'm a noob if i must compare lool
Man a feature where you could remove a piece of terrain for 10,000 gold or something looks pretty tempting with that massive mountain range in the way. You know, if dimension door didn't exist
@@BAMGM Man I feel pretty stupid for not thinking of remove obstacle. I guess the main problem is it brings up the whole headache of bypassing guards, so maybe you could only remove obstacles if the area revealed was already accessible from where you cast the spell
@@KyriosHeptagrammaton Pretty sure that most of the time the guarded object is directly next to the stacks, so it would activate the fight either way. (Cause they have a 3x3 "guarding aura" or whatever its called) But yea sometimes it could be a bit of a cheese, but hey, make it expensive, bam. It's not like you can't use fly to cheese them already, so I don't think it's that big of a problem anyway
@@Norovo Exactly. My 1st thought was my idea was cool but crazy, but then I remember dimension door. I think replacing this idea with dimension door could actually be a decent nerf to it
I dont know if you have an editor or you edit by yourself, but having basically an hour of footage and going back to edit a grammatical error, that has my respect. Keep up the good job
24:06 "There's no way he (Loynis) can get back to this (Portal of Glory) this is going to take 3 turns" well, actually, that 3 means he can reach it on day 7... Edit: nevermind, he realizes that a couple minutes later.
I just played a generated map with a portal of glory close to my castle. I ended the game with x2 25 angel packs. (nothing to brag about I know, but was quite fun). Easy win.
Have you ever thought of streaming? I have seen your name mentioned on numerous occasions on reddit and i believe you will do well streaming in your spare time.
I've thought about it. The idea makes me kinda nervous as I like to have control over what does / doesn't make it online but I'm probably taking it too seriously. Maybe one day.
Yo, Norov, which version of Heroes 3 should I buy now? Like which one is the best, most complete, latest version... ? I see there is HD edition on steam and "complete edition" on GOG....
If you're looking for the complete HoMM 3 game, don't bother with the HD edition on Steam. It's vanilla-only, no expansions. The complete version is the one on Gog, so both expansions are included. Also, I think the mods such as the HD mod and HotA only work with the Gog version.
what happens if all the initial units get killed but summoned elementals survive? Does it mean the battle will be automatically lost after all initial units get killed?
In the rediscovery playthrough you said you wont use things like dimension door, now it is 1v7, are you still going to avoid overpowered things or does this situation call for use of such things?
When your hero attack random units, whenever they say they will flee, they would have propose to join you if you had a stack empty and with diplomacy skills. You would have grown like a snowball using this approach.
So did you manually set up ads on this video or did UA-cam do that automatically? There's literally an ad every 3 minutes. It's making me unreasonably mad.
@@Norovo I really like this game my problem is im always trying to rush units like I really want toget to endgame where you have stacks of hundreds of units but I always fuck myself over on gold

*Wins with zero losses.*
Auto result - “Am I a joke to you?”
*Summons 48 Earth Elementals.*
Gotta be honest: The fight against the Diamond Golems was impressive as hell. Never would've had the guts to do something like this myself 😄
This game ages really well with its art style~
damn, 40 minutes went by real quick. This game is scary when you have other things to do
So true, start up the game thinking "yea this is just gonna be a short little fun game" and realize it's nearly midnight when you quit...
More than once, I have started playing with my brothers after dinner, and then what seems like an hour later, my mom would come in the room and be like, "Oh you're up early. Have you had breakfast yet?"
@@renatocorvaro6924 more than once.... "just one more turn"...... oh damn, gotta work in 2hours :D
Loynis Tech Tips, i just can't unhear it.
The way you cheerfully state that you'll "really be able to go on a bit of a rampage." lol
Well who needs troops when you can summon elementals =)
Finally, I've been waiting. I've had to resort to watching old videos
That's what they're there for 😅
Loving this series so far! I'm enjoying rediscovering this game and you're keeping me going during work until I can get home and play. Keep it up!
As much as i wish to watch this. I prefer to binge-watch this series so here is a comment to remind my future self that.
@32:18 Oh thank God for that edit, haha. I was prepping my pitchfork.
Love your channel, by the way. Makes me realize how terrible I was at this game as a kid.
Damm so glad you still make videos. This was posted on my birthday too. Cheers man, love your content
The fight with the ice golems was really impressive
Damn, you're pretty good Norovo.
Dude! Nearly 2 hours episode 1, 40 min episode 2... Don't scare us like that, hehe! I'm glad there's #3

I haven't played this game for years! Now I want to pick it up again
Niceee, I can already see a huge Arch Angel powerstack... :D
Hate to be a backchair gamer but it was probably a waste to upgrade the pikemen tho
Man a feature where you could remove a piece of terrain for 10,000 gold or something looks pretty tempting with that massive mountain range in the way. You know, if dimension door didn't exist
Or if Remove Obstacle worked outside of combat, or as a level 5 spell... maybe something for HotA devs to consider
@@BAMGM Man I feel pretty stupid for not thinking of remove obstacle. I guess the main problem is it brings up the whole headache of bypassing guards, so maybe you could only remove obstacles if the area revealed was already accessible from where you cast the spell

I feel like this would really disturb the balance of the game on some maps but then again that totally applies to Fly / Dimension Door already
@@Norovo Exactly. My 1st thought was my idea was cool but crazy, but then I remember dimension door. I think replacing this idea with dimension door could actually be a decent nerf to it

Great! Time to chill.
Wow such nostalgia. Benched this game when I was 10.
24:06 "There's no way he (Loynis) can get back to this (Portal of Glory) this is going to take 3 turns" well, actually, that 3 means he can reach it on day 7...
Edit: nevermind, he realizes that a couple minutes later.
Gotta get that Glory Hole.
great, wating part 3.

@@Norovo i hope you do and im sure others do too
the way you think is optimum play thanks for video
Enjoying this, thanks. Just curious, how do you know what neutral creatures can get moral? Like you mentioned the diamond golems can't get moral.
The heroes Wiki, or/and experience playing the game
Yup it's mostly experience. Golems, elementals and undead don't get morale as they aren't alive (no emotions I guess)
HYPE let's go!
Shame the parts are quite short

I haven't decided yet, feels sweeter to win without those spells but also makes everything take way longer
When your hero attack random units, whenever they say they will flee, they would have propose to join you if you had a stack empty and with diplomacy skills.
You would have grown like a snowball using this approach.
So in the beginning: Why would you need to summon earth elementals to kill Angels or Diamond Golems? You have expert earth magic.
Easy PoG knee you could do it. Watch the snowball effect now
What are these cool mods that let you see stuff like the turn order and where your enemies can move? They look like game changers lol.
Those are both from the HD mod
@@Norovo thank you so much I found it and it’s a total game changer along with horn of the abyss!
Anyone know what song plays when he clicks on his castle city?

@@Orangeman2345 I have one on pc but not on mobile
How do i get a unit order bar in cobat when i play ?
noice
I used to consider myself a pretty good HoMM 3 player until I watched this video. Turns out I was average, at best.
you want bless on your marksmen. How do you not know this?
why is this game so confusing and impossible to play i've tried the same map 20 times now and never get anywhere playing this game
Some maps are much easier than others, start at lower difficulties and build from there. I have a tips video that might help with some things
@@Norovo I really like this game my problem is im always trying to rush units like I really want toget to endgame where you have stacks of hundreds of units but I always fuck myself over on gold
