Apologies if I'm being retarded, but how do you leave the town? I just get a conversation open up with the gate guard with no response options and can't push past him.
Well, it confirms what I expected - that it's more a successor to 4-5 than 6-8. That's a real shame in my opinion, as I preferred 6-8 by a wide margin. MM7 is especially brilliant I really would've preferred if it was the basis of any new games in the series.
Ah well, I'll probably give it a go at some point.
If the guard is still standing in front of the gate, you still need to complete the quests from the captain in town. The guard will move aside when the game is ready to let you out. It's just a mechanism to keep you in the "low-bie area" until you stand a chance of surviving outdoors.Apologies if I'm being retarded, but how do you leave the town?

Okay… sorry for the writer as I didn't mean no offense but I stopped reading from there ! It'll be a big No, No for me.a Steam key for the game. The installation requires a UPlay account as well
No offense taken. A couple sentences past where you stopped reading:Okay… sorry for the writer as I didn't mean no offense but I stopped reading from there ! It'll be a big No, No for me.
I mention this so the folks that are militant about DRM can ignore the rest of the review. Those folks will be missing out on a potentially great game, but to each his own.
I understand but as you said, the game requires a Steam install + Uplay activation and that's simply unacceptable to me ! That'll be the first time I won't buy a M&M game just because of it's DRM and that's sad indeed. but I won't condone such DRM absurdities either, so…No offense taken.

UPlay is Ubisoft's version of digital rights management (DRM) that they use to combat piracy. Overall, it's a crappy program that leeches computer resources (CPU, memory, internet bandwidth) while you're trying to play your game. For folks that honestly pay money for their games, UPlay is utterly worthless and in fact a negative due to the resource leeching. Some people just take more offense to that backhanded insult than others.Sorry for being thick but what's Uplay and what's wrong with it?
Thanks, LS.
Don't like Uplay either but bought it anyways (I also applaud to what ubisoft is doing with other games recently).
However the big problem I have with Might and Magic is that it runs like crap. Every few seconds there is a hang of about half a second which I think is really annoying.
