5:03 The original joke here was that he took the Yugioh opening and pasted on faces from the expansion of Heroes IV. The reason it got taken down was that he used the entire opening with only part of the visuals covered up by his edits, so it pinged the copyright system.
Funnily enough, Heroes of Might and Magic 5 still have a pretty solid fanbase in Slavic countries with local active servers, youtube channels, new game mods, and rebalance overhauls made by the community - I especially love the full randomizer gamemode where you get a random hero with all random units and artifacts, quickly upgrade them in 10 minutes, and then fight another player - quick and fun chaos :D
Good reason for it; Heroes V was actually a really solid piece of design. Story aside, the thing was a really good game, elements-wise. Yeah, Necro was OP as balls before updates, and Inferno still has pretty useless racial special mechanics. But it's actually damn good, and still holds up. The magic system and spells, the whole adding alternate unit upgrades, etc. Solid and good natural developments of the series. Too bad the AI was utter garbage.
I remember playing this game for the first time and having ogres with me. I was attacking an enemy hero when suddenly I noticed that the ogres have a ranged attack and I'm like sure that sounds awesome. Then the ogre picks a goblin next to it and throws it at the enemy target!
@@muatring Well, certain white women that have *ahem* strong aesthetic (among other things) preference for black men can sometimes signal this by getting a queen of spades symbol tattooed on their person, often their lower back, to express their interest in black men and deter men with insufficient melanin that they have no interest in.
Dark Messiah's not a Skyrim clone. It has very little to do with Skyrim, or even Oblivion. It's not even a traditional RPG, it's an immersive sim with a combat focus. More of a game about its combat and experimentation within those systems, with stealth being pretty bad and unfinished. Good reaction as always but that throwaway comment did strike a chord. Or a nerve. I understand it was probably a joke, but still.
@@_Trash_Goblin Might've been, though I wanted to make this comment precisely *because* so many people dismissed it as an Oblivion clone when it came out. Thank you for pointing that out, though, I'll add it to the comment.
I miss playing HMMV, used to play it all the time and create so many maps to play. Need to see if I can get it on some online store and OD on some nostalgia
There's a HRTA mod for heroes V that has a live online with active players. Although it's quite different from a regular game. You and your opponent both draft factions, fraft heroes and then you have limited amount of money to build your hero and army instantly (you basically level up for money), buy some artifacts and then fight. Basically a final battle simulator. Saves a lot of time and gives a lot of flexibility in building your hero.
As a Pole who's early childhood took place in late 90's early 2000's, which makes me severely overqualified in all things related to HOMM as I *probably* spent several tens of thousands of hours playing all of these games, Heroes V is my second favorite game in the HOMM multiverse... right behind M&M VIII Day of the Destroyer. HOMM3 is on the third place.
V is the one I've actually played, when I was younger and I'd play it on my brother's computer. NGL, I think a modern version could be really good and fun.
9:50 ACTUALLY, the normal goblin is a pathway to The Most Balanced exploit one can possibly ever do, which will allow you to win literally any fight. Technically any hero can do it, but the safest way is to do it as a knight who has the guardian angel ability.
Command and Conquer Remastered (of Tiberium Dawn and Red Alert 1) released in 2020 on Steam. Also tbf, while C&C4 TT sucks, the games released for most of their time on EA was really good. TS, RA2, Generals, Zero:Hour, CNC3, RA3, and recently the Remaster.
Heros 5 Where the most stupid strategy made me lose almost 3 friends. Play dungeon. Play Lethos. Lvl up. Have at least 3 stacks of assassins of 3K Start a fight. Lethos decays almost all enemies before the battle. Assassins taking care of the rest.
You saying that Dark messiah is a clone of Skyrim is very, very, very TRIGGERING. And, WOW, you (kinda) know russian? I know that you know french, but wow, that was a peleasant surprise.
Haha sorry about that, only just noticed after someone else pointed it out. Oblivious was what O had in mind. ( But even that my trigger you hahaha) I try to learn the alphabet some time and some words kinda stick out.

The best thing about Heroes V? It directly leads to Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. The human queen? Her kidnapping by demons in a roundabout somewhat confusing that to put it simply leads to her getting knocked up and birthing Sereth, the main character of Dark Messiah. This games awful plot led to one of the most celebrated cult classics of the 21st century.
You missed the last minutes of the video with animated 3d town screens that have BEAUUUUUUUTIFUL music and majestic vibe and architectural design Rewatch them, please, i'm sure you'd like them (especially Haven one, yeaaaah) Since you watched faction prologue videos from Endless Space 2, you'd get a similar experience
I dunno if this is relevant at all, but i gotta start fire emblem three houses again pretty soon. The only strategy game, that got me hooked. Maybe it leads me to others
Well I guess the most alive Heroes is heroes 3 what with the fanmade horn of the abyss expansion and 2k players online in multiplayer and ranking system for competitive players. Probably just as alive or even more so than when it released and that's amazing
Ironically settlers V does NOT contain ANY of the expansions on gog,as much as i share seth's love for gog sometimes the game is incomplete BUT that isnt thr case for homm 3,4 and 5 i got them all cpmplete on gog so just keep that in the back of your mind.
Wow wow wow... Hold your horses. First of all, Dark Messiah of Might and Magic came out 5 years before Skyrim. And it's more of an early immersive sim than a typical action rpg. This game is closer to dishonored than skyrim. But bigger diffrence between skyrim(or oblivion) and dark messiah are Skyrims has open world but DM has combat mechanics and choices that matter.
Homm is a dead series. Because Ubersoft just can't put enough seasonal battlepasses, cosmeticts and lootboxes into a single-player turn-based game. Trey tried, but they failed.
Heroes is dead as long as Ubisoft holds the rights. They are unwilling to make anything but a cashgrab and there isn't much cash left to grab after Heroes 6 and 7. I am a massive fan of Heroes 3 and 5 and wouldn't even buy Heroes 8 if it somehow turned out good, because I sure as shit ain't gonna touch Ubisoft Connect. If your game isn't on Steam/GoG or requires a 3rd party launcher, don't count on getting my money unless it's a 10/10 indie title like Starsector.

But Dortmund... (oder besser Berlin) do b like that tho.
Dark Messiah of Might & Magic came out like 5 years before Skyrim. And it's more like a Half-Life clone than a Skyrim clone.
*queues Oblivion music* that's a better comparison

It’s because homm 5 is really similar to homm 3, which is pretty much counts as religion for gamers in post soviet space)
Oh, Random Wars is awesome!
There's also an active community for 3 and also 7.
Slavs really love HoMM

The cut joke was amazing, i was fortunate enough to see it before it got taken down.
It's probably still up on one of the mirrors on his website.

My brother in Christ, I commend your bravery for calling Dark Messiah a Skyrim clone, but it's going to rustle so many jimmies.
A battle may be won with steel, but a war is won with gold.
Only true men of culture will understand that "Queen of Spades tattoo" joke

The original joke that got scrapped Seth used the intro to the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime, that's why that happened
Our boi Jack knows this queen of spades symbol well it seems ;3
Jeff Spock then moved to help create the Endless Universe.
To this day the only communications we recieve from him are from there.
Thats a nice feeling when a youtuber reacts to something you recommend
Looking forward to your reaction to the Heroes 3 and 2 reviews by Sseth! :D
