Outside of the Mario + Rabbids games and HOPEFULLY Heroes of Might & Magic: Olden Era next year, I really don’t give a crap about Ubisoft anymore. The second I see the Ubisoft logo, I immediately lose a lot of interest.

The entire Might & Magic series died for me when Ubisoft took over. I tried Heroes V and didn't like what they did with both the story and gameplay. Like AT ALL. I gave them a second chance with Might & Magic X: Legacy and they fumbled it hard (not to mention dropping support after a mere 3 months!). I so wish Jon Van Canegem could get his series back, his mobile endeavour is over since spring this year anyway...

Yeah, same here. The only reasons I'm ever so slightly optimistic is 1) the change of developers. This new title is being made by an indie studio called Unfrozen that has released 1 game previously so far called Iratus: Lord of the Dead. Which from what I've seen, is well enough praised by critics and players alike. And 2) after following the Gamescom coverage of the new release, I was reading a lot of comments from journalists saying that this new game heavily takes inspiration from HoMM 3. Which was very much music to my ears.

So while I'm not holding my breath too much, I'm at least as somewhat hopeful for the series than I have been for a long time.
