Yes, it's quite a good tune. Come to think of it, I know it sounds like another tune I recognise, but I can't figure out what it is.

I've only ever played the GBC version as a kid, so I came to listen to the real thing and my mind is blown....I mean, I was finding a way to jam to those primitive versions back then, so you can imagine how these sound......Epic! It's like I'm seeing clearly for the first time but in an audio sense. The extremely solid bones of the originals carry over enough that my favorites from GBC still remain my favorites here, just soooo much better (barbarian, warlock) the ones I wasn't so fond of make more sense now and are awesome (Sorcerer and knight). So glad I looked this up

Back when computers could not process so much data but cds made possible to communicate a lot more data, sound and music were a very important part of video games art.

[@IvanichDivanich]

Да, абсолютно с вами согласен, делали упор на музыку, сюжет и душу. Это были лучшие времена видеоигр. С недавних времён Игроиндустрия в моих глазах получила застой и в каком то смысле смерть.

I don't hear pipe organ in Warlock's theme, there's Brass, Woodwinds, Strings, Harpsichord and Dulcimer, but no Organ.

[@RodrigoAlgorta]

@@jarekwrzosek2048 Around 22:40 or the end can be heard. Organ can have many different sounds similar to those other instruments. It sounds to me more like keys are being pressed but it's midi sound so it can be either.

[@GAnimeRO]

The advantage of CD music over using MIDI / AdLib samples. Though there is a certain magic and feel CD music cannot achieve that is only present in AdLib / MIDI.

One of my first video games on computer and one of the best. The sorceress music brings me the best memories. Loved all the style in the game, the best imo to bring that epic and serene feeling but the second and third were great too. Homm2 was like a fairytale :)

Never played this a lot compared to later games, but I love the medieval sound, and I must say that "Sorceress" faction themes are always among the most beautiful (eponymous themes in the first two games, then Rampart in HOMM III, and Nature/Preserve in HOMM IV). I also really like the Dead Can Dance sounding "Battle Theme 04".

[@dodop8449]

Warlock town music 😍

[@toddschroeder9967]

Really enjoy this, thanks for posting! I'm replaying this one now and remembered how epic I thought the music was (at the time only 12/13 yrs. old) A quick fun find, If I install Heroes 1 with the '07 Ubisoft release but put in the Windows Platinum version (from '98?) I get the cd music in all parts of game! Loved this game and have beaten it with all 4 factions.

[@Talliesyn]

It's all nice and easy, then Barbarian Town theme hits and it's like Mr Romero smuggled a real masterpiece from 17/18 century into the unknown game. Nothing shouts more 'I am way over qualified for this job' than this.

[@DuaLeaD]

I had always binged Heroes of Might & Magic II and III. Never got to experience the first game....What was it like? Is it worth trying?

[@christophergarza1130]

its enjoyable (I did grow up playing it though) mostly the same game, units dont upgrade if i remember correctly.

[@KleederMusic]

"mostly the same game" as part 2 is only true on the first look imo. homm1 is a lot more unbalanced but also a lot more interesting because of it imo. you also have smaller fight grids and a different way of how magic spells work, which makes battling very different to the sequel. since theres not marketplace, resource management is a lot harder and you really have to pay attention to your mines. i also think the graphics are cuter and more detailed, just look at how the castle screens really show the creatures running around. and the music is awesome as well (but since youre checking a soundtrack video, i dont think thats news to you hehe) disclaimer: i grew up with homm1 and its one of my three favorite games of all time, im speaking threw a big nostalgia-wall here hehe

[@Fuchsia_tude]

I played it first, and just playing the demo alone was enough to get me hooked on the series. II and III took the gameplay and really made it great, though. It's kinda boring since there's no real plot or story, just a series of disconnected scenarios basically. It's the Civilization I of the series I guess. Some of the graphics and music tracks are iconic, but II's and III's are much stronger overall, I'd say. Plus obviously Necromancer is the best town and it's not in I

[@johnmurdoch8534]

I got the 1st game in the millennium edition package in 1999 or so and it was great fun. i still play it. If you are used to 3 and beyond it may be hard to get into, its a far more limited game than the rest but its also alot of fun. Its also great to see where many of the things we expect began.
