I do not remember purchasing "gems" with real currency in the "good old days"
It has so many micro transactions it's obvious the game's a cash grab on player's nostalgia. Oh, and you cannot play it offline even in single player.
My advice: avoid
Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.
1. Submissions have to be related to games
Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.
This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
3. No excessive self-promotion
Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.
This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.
5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW
Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.
No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.
6. No linking to piracy
Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.
We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

try songs of conquest also
They’re literally remaking HoMM 3 now.
Also the GoG version of classic HoMM3 is perfecty playable and has the complete edition with extensions.
Prefer this to the HD edition on Steam though, that one only contains base game and can't be modded.
Got a source for that? I'm not aware of anything like that
Not OP but you should check out VCMI project. It's finally got a 1.x release after some decade+ of work. Fixed castle limit issues of the originally to free up modding potential and they're making improvements to enemy AI.
Also works on Android.
a) That's not a remake, it's a separate game b) Please don't buy it, made by russian devs that have been funded by oligarchs with ties to the russian government
Cool ad, bro
What the fuck is this shit? Buy the game and still be expected to in-app purchase gems???
Ah yes, server rewards for doing the campaign, be a good boy and play daily!!
