    Heroes 3 was a work of art. UI was simple and easy to understand. Artwork was beautiful, and the music is fantastic. Probably the reason it remains relevant today.
    I wonder if a new game were released,that went back to the principles of 3, whether it would be commercially viable these days.

    If they would just go back to 2D close-up style from the side for the combats it would be so much better than those last games. A huge charm from heroes 1-3 came from actually seeing the creatures and having them so distinct from each other. With realistic 3d design from above it's lost.

    Heroes IV had some cool concepts and Heroes V is definitely the second best installment in the franchise.

    Over the years I came to the conclusion, that HoMM5 vis the best game, not only in the series, but of all time ;-)
    It is pretty much Heroes 3 again, but it fixes most of what is/was wrong with 3.
    1. Factions are much more balanced.
    2. Factions and creatures are more unique. Every creature has multiple special abilities, as well as factions having unique skill-trees and skills.
    3. Way better skill system, with way more balanced skills. Sure there still are better and worse skills and perks, but its not such as gap as like between Earth magic and eagle Eye in H3. Also more balnced magic schools.
    Better balance between might&magic. Pure might builds are way more viable in HoMM5 than in HoMM3. As a result there is also a way better balnce between might&magic and none (or at least less extreme) of these ridicolously OP cheese strats/builds.
    4. Other interesting stuff, like Caravans, alternate Upgrades, etc.
    With 5.5 installed it has pretty much perfected the Heroes 3 gameplay formula and all that could be done to improve would be better graphics, more content and possibly a better UI.

    It's amazing how they struck gold first time around, really. First two games have all the hallmarks we grew to love in HoMM3. It just got refined so much.

H3 was just brilliant for the time has come and here is putting a lot of credit to developing the rest versions. Some great ideas, some bad choices but still all of them are cool to play. The most playing time belongs to h3, the best soundtrack to h4, my favourite is h5, and h6 is the most diffident by the rest. All are great and I played them from time to time all of them

    Started playing with HoMM2, played all the following numbered titles (and chronicles). For a hardcore competitive play HoMM3 is the way to go, for the story base HoMM4 and the chronicles, for refined mechanics HoMM5(.5 as the unmodded game is just a bit broken). HoMM4 can also be interesting mechanic-wise as every creature has its actual peculiarities, not just different stats, and it actually plays as a HEROES of might and magic: going around with a party of 7 heroes steamrolling everything is crazy good IMHO. HoMM6 is an attempt to casualize the game, which failed spectacularly (also always online and game breaking bugs that the developers didn't bother to fix). HoMM7 is just bad.

    I started to play with the first game and I liked it but my real love of the series was started with the second third and fourth game. Basically I played almost all the major games and there is some in this video which is not familiar to me so basically I just skipped these. I would mention one heroes game which was made by capybara games might & magic : Clash of heroes. That game is close to the heroes series and the music what they used in there also familiar but the mechanics are very different. Other than this it is nice to see this serie lived and evolved a lot and possible in the future we will see more kind of games in it.
    When I saw the first game as a young child I imagined the series will get a lot of sequels and I am finally was right. I would not say there is outright bad or good games in the series because each of it have added it's charm, characters mechanics, great musics and interesting additions. That is understandable they tried to go for the 3d because many game series tried to evolve for that path simply because the market demanded it. To this day there are a lot of games which tries to catch the nostalgia factor and whole not all succeed but some did it very well.

    If you want to play a game that is closer to H5 but on H3 engine try out Advanced Classes Mod (on ERA platform). Your secondary skills can be leveled up to level 5 (opposed to just 3 from vanilla game) but in order to reach levels 4 and then 5 you need to specialize. If you pick generic good skills you'll end up with a mix of warrior, mage and adventure that will max out at expert skill. If you pick every magic skill in the game (all 4 schools, wisdom, int, mystic, sorcery) you'll be able to reach grandmaster (lv 5) rank in them AND you'll receive "class" perks similar to the ultimate skills from heroes 5 (those that required extensive specialization). Weaker skills have been boosted significantly too.
    Warriors get critical strike chance in combat, mages get extra cast per turn and resist pierce, adventurers get even more movepoints and boost growth in their castles.

    Played 3, 4 and 5 extensively. All 3 have a special place in my hearth. While I enjoy 4 the least (the hero changes were a miss imo). It was actually the first Heroes game I played and so I still love it. Then as everyone else I heard about the glory of the 3rd game, went back to check it out and. Yes it was crazy good. But when 5 came out it felt like a giant leap in terms of graphic. Some might begrudge the change in setting, but as I was too young to understand it. I didn't mind at all. I just loved the new cinematics and 3D graphics.
    Well idk what the hell happened after, but it felt like every heroes game after 5 got worse not better somehow. Even in the most basic aspect that are graphics.

    I am really glad some love is shown there for VII. It took a lot of criticism in ratings but to me, there is so much to love! Heroes I and II won´t comment. The first one I haven´t played that much and second...was nice but since III release there was no reason to get back. III is a mastepiece, loved campaings from Armageddon´s blade. If I have to say what I don´t like about this game is that Expert Wisdom-Expert Earth Magic-Game over routine. Also too much spells and skills you like never use. (please don´t tell me your great strategy is to use remove obstacle and expert eagle eyes. :D ) Heroes IV has so much great to offer. Really enjoyable campaings, well written (I mean I really read those). It had so many new innovative ideas that is shame I think it´s only fourth in hours I spent with the series. To pick negative- it was nice that game offered choosing between two creatures but... like you could choose if to pick first strike Tigers or Elver for range attack but most of the times you take the same. I mean you can tell me you pick golems and mages but don´t lie to me that you ever pick ogre mages over OP cyclops. Also, getting top spells took too much levels. In most maps the game was over till you could even learn level 5 spells. Heroes V is beloved by many and it was for me too untill I realize, how few units I really use in combats. Too many creatures was so slow/initiative that you could just never really use them. So you ended winning combats by three, four creatures max. It also had some great new ideas, 3D town looked amazing, but after all those years, it just doesn´t work for me. Heroes VI was beautiful. And I end it with that. The rest of the game was failure. Now we get to VII. The things I love about this game- Like every creature is usefull. And choosing which one you get + every week makes you try many strategies and almost all are working. Back attacks are great for planning your combats effectively, I also take as a positive there aren´t that many spells and the spells there are left are mostly useful. And thanks to the skill wheel your heroes are really unique. So those are my reasons I say VII is great game. I´d really wish Ubi decided to give it a one more try and return to us Hell and Swampy creatures from III.
