Honestly, when I fought some gargoyles yesterdays, I wish I had such option. I think the battles lasted over 200 turns and perhaps 20 minutes or more real time. I didn't mind the long battle at the tavern since that one was very entertaining and challenging…. but that battle against the 27 gargoyles was just a very boring and repetitive clickfest.
I cannot believe I'm reading this.
Did you by chance disable tutorial?
During the normal game, there is an ingame tip/hint that certain trashmobs are highly resistant to physical damage.
Did you think it will work differently in KB/HoMM minigames?
The map campaign offers you by default three recruitable units - melee clerics, physical archers and melee soldiers vulgaris.
Gives what?
You need a
mage general as your first one.
And you picked what?
A damned paladin I bet.
Of course instead of 3-4 turns max, your battle lasted till doomsday.
In chapter 3 you'll pick a second general when the first one gets to skyhigh level ofc.
So hire a mage if you haven't already, it's not "too late".
Yes, but who does RPGs these days anymore ? I mean, *true* RPGs with a good story and an immersive world ?
Fighting is imho so much overrated, but nobody notices that, because it's a game "by men for men", and fighting is supposed to be part of a man's world …
WTF again Alrik?
Set the game difficulty on easiest possible and there you go, I bet the combat becomes trivial.
The story and substories are fantastic, not to mention choices.
For example every chaotic reply is full of humor - my plan was not to be a chaotic character but those dialogues are so awsome I just have to pick 'em.
Oh and you, when you'll make a mythical pick, choose Azata.
I went with it due to practical reasons and then…
Jesus Christ.
Some supercute critter is following you everywhere, the dragon companion is like someone dedicated their life to make the cutest dragon possible, areund your character some cute blue "fireflies" are circling and the worst of it, everything you touch in the game, and you will per quests, will blossom in most vibrant colors.
The whole thing looks like Care Bears style only in a fantasy setting, yuck.
Well, I didn't know what am I getting myself into, but too much of this cuteness makes me sick.
Now I wish I picked the lich path, but as I said, not sure if my own spells vs undead would hurt my companion in such case.
Okay, I'm exaggerating a bit, it was my choice not knowing what will happen and I could reload, but hell, no, I like to live with dialogue choices in the first playthrough.
t happen enough to be a major problem, but it s still annoying.
