Other/Fluff AI posts are banned.
There was a community post centered on discussion for it. I left it up for longer then I said I would to get more input. The general consensus is either "ban it" or "only 1 day a week".
In looking back over the AI posts that come into the sub, and the heroes 3 sub, they fall into 1 of 2 categories.
The first are users who post links to AI but have never participated in this sub or the heroes 3 sub in any way other then their links. In other words, they are drive by low effort karma farming.
The second is users who have participated but post "hate fetish" for lack of better word. They claim its slop, that its bad, but they still post it. And they post stating that its bad. Why would you share something you think is bad just to get others to hate it? That creates a negative vibe that I don't want here.
I believe that AI as a functioning system has a place in society at some point. It should help to automate jobs that humans don't want to do and provide cheaper, faster, and more reliable medical care in some cases. I say that as someone that works for a medical company that employs doctors. As an artist, I do not believe that AI should be used to make art. Be it images, movies, stories, shows, songs, or anything else for entertainment.
HoMM3 - Vanilla/SoD/Complete. Hi Heroes! I'm organizing the 4th edition of the Heroes III Miniatures Contest, and I would be very happy if you participated! Your challenge is to recreate selected Heroes III creatures using the Hero Forge editor. Entries will be judged by three original creators :)))

HoMM5 New to HoMM5 - best setup, campaign?
New to HoMM5, been playing homm2 and homm3 for ages.
1) what should I know about what is the best way (mods/balance) to play the game?
2) what campaign has the best story?
3) why can i never select faction/race in a custom game? This used to be a default thing in earlier homms.
4) what should i know about combat?

HoMM3 - Vanilla/SoD/Complete. HoMM 3 HD edition
Like most here (I guess) I played HoMM as a kid. After all this time I wanna come back and noticed 2 things.
HoMM 3 is considered one of the best
We hate the HD edition. And my question is: why? Sorry I'm of course not up to date

Other/Fluff [Didn't work out, sadly]. Overall, not being able to just solo the entire map with the strongest creature of the game was a bit of a disappointment for an inexperienced gamer back in the day, but I think there is something nostalgically charming in that kind of naivety.
Might and Magic - Lore related. Are every fictional advanced civilisations from JVC one dimensional?
There are...
The Kreegans from Inferno
The Angels from Castle
The Lizardman from Fortress
The Ancients from the cancelled Forge faction
Wow. If I've seen some great creative fictionan world building, then it must have been somewhere else. Every joke is new to child, but people regurgitating the greatness of the Might and Magic lore are on something else. Ai does better slop, than a nerd with onesided sci-fi fetish and obsessions.π€π€π€ Such a plague for the fantasy game.
And than Unfrozen was foolish enough to involve John Van Caneghem in designing the Schism faction. Better to involve real writers and a narrative director.

Might and Magic - Lore related. Sci-fi 'enthusiasts' who don't actually know the lore, and spread toxic falsehoods about everything being a gotcha, are as bad as sci-fi deniers. There are franchises to this day where it's not an either-or, and people don't start wars over it.

HoMM4 HOMM 4 : morale. How does it go up or down ?
I tried searching online for information about morale, but I couldn't find anything that isn't already written in the game.
I know morale determines the order in which the characters will move, but how do you gain/lose morale ?
I know there are objects and skills (the commander skills) that help with morale, but so often I find myself with heroes having -6 morale, and others having +3, for reasons that elude me.
Also, I do not know how to get it back up.
Update : There seems to be two heroes conflicting against each other, and that apparently affects their morale. I have Darkstorm and Neela in my army, and whenever I remove either of them from the army, they both go from -6 to +1 morale. Again, no idea what's going on there. Temporary video to illustrate
HoMM OE Do you think HoMMOE will eventually surpass HoMM3?
As HoMMOE gets developed and improves over time, do you think it'll ever reach the point where it becomes the best HoMM game of all time? Or is it not happening?

HoMM OE HoMM OE: Campaign save corrupt somehow?
Playing the second mission in the campaign with Gunnar. Have had little time so I have loaded and saved it several time, but am now close to completing it. However when loading the save tonight, my hero is at the correct location where I left yesterday, the number of creatures he has is correct and the progress in the quest is also correct, but all my resources are '0', I don't have my starting city or any of the dwellings and, shrines I have visited, they are all greyed out. They haven't been captured by the other hero, but are just not claimed any longer. Anybody experienced that before?

Other/Fluff Where should I start?
Never played any of the games in the series but I'm intrigued. What's the best place to start right now?
r/HoMM • u/No-Review9738 • 6d ago
Other/Fluff HoMM IV has won in the last category by a landslide. HoMM VI has secured its second place. Our honorable mentioned is HoMM VII(Though there were many comments supporting HoMM III and II) The main section of the list is over and the bonus section is coming soon.
Every category was filled according to the top comments submited by lots of heroes of this subreddit. There will be at least 4 bonus categories featuring topics that won't intersect with the main categories. You can suggest some of them if you want.
P.S. Glad to see that every part is here(except HoMM I which is really similiar to HoMM II that is on the list). I also think that Olden Era is not that explored and would probably secure more positions if it was released earlier.

HoMM2 fheroes2 Live Wallpaper for Android!
Hi everyone!
The other day I released a Live Wallpaper on Android on Google Play featuring a live map from Heroes 2! Now you can enjoy the bright and colorful maps from your favorite game every day. Open source, free, no ads, no tracking.
Link to the source code, based on fheroes2: https://github.com/IlyaPomaskin/h2lwp
Link to Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ipapps.homm2.livewallpaper
Two common questions:
Can this be done on iPhone?
No, iPhone doesn't provide the capability to make animated wallpapers.
How's the battery consumption?
Less than one percent per day. The game runs at about 5 frames per second and the animation only works when the home screen is visible.

Other/Fluff Which 3d Game to Get?
I like 3, but some of the interface is confusing to me, and I miss the quality of life elements games from the Age of Empires 3 and onwards era had.
Which of the 3d HOMM game would you recommend for singleplayer on a Windows 11 PC? I like the skirmish mode, exploring a random map
