Heroes III purists will count all the things you listed as downgrades :) For me Heroes IV is the favorite game in the series.
One piece of trivia that I learned recently about Heroes II Armageddons Blade: there was supposed to be a race based on high tech, which was ditched, because of the fan's outcry: https://mightandmagic.fandom.com/wiki/Forge_(town) https://mightandmagic.fandom.com/wiki/Forge_(town)
I really wish they included it.
- ilyt 4y agofive kind of "men with some weird weapon instead of arms" doesn't look all that interesting. I think it would have better reaction if it was steampunk instead of outright "random future things in universe of magic"
- 988747 4y agoI think it is just a draft, given more time they could come up with better units. The thing is, Might and Magic RPG series was always merge of both worlds: creatures looked mystical, but you were made aware that the story takes place on some distant planet (and occasionally you visited a spaceship, and shot a blaster). Having Forge faction in Armageddons Blade would be a direct continuation of the plot introduced in Might and Magic VII: For Blood and Honor, but I think 3DO did not realize that Heroes series created their separate fanbase, not familiar with the RPG games at all...
- ilyt 4y agoI think you hit nail in the head. I didn't knew about any of that until much later and though of HoMM universe as purely fantasy
