[@nashrussell753]

Wow can't believe this game is still going, looks healthy after all these years

[@LTGamingYoutube]

Yeah the community is still going strong after all these years! Love it! - Tom

[@trax1794]

Always love featuring Heroes 3! Hope people like it!

[@johanesbpermadi2016]

I've been playing and returning to H3 every time since the game was released back in 1999 until now. This game stands the test of time, and not even the sequels came close to it. Currently playing HotA 1.7.0 and having a blast with it

[@myrar8708]

love to see your recent overview on how this game is still worked on. I have been playing since I was a kid and my grandma got me this game. Simply great!

[@martinlisitsata]

ahhhh WoG im pretty sure its the first mod i ever knows for heroes . i think back in 2008 was the first time i played it .

[@mysticmerlin1297]

Heroes 3 for for life!

[@LTGamingYoutube]

Strongly agree! - Tom

[@p7584]

24 years later, and I still haven't found a better ost (or a game with a higher replay value).

[@perryr4319]

Thanks for this nice and fair overview of the current projects! Much appreciated.

[@LTGamingYoutube]

Thanks man, much appreciated to you for watching - Tom

[@thomastoadie9006]

WOG…whoops, I mean ERA is amazing! Had to buy the GOG version recently, because my new laptop doesn’t have a drive for my original game cd. Thank you to everybody who’s contributed to this piece of art!

[@I_am_Locutus_of_Borg]

That's a great list, some of these I didn't know about. Thanks!

[@LTGamingYoutube]

Thanks man, glad you found something new here. - Tom

[@LTGamingYoutube]

Tom did an excellent job with the Heroes series on the channel. Lists are a great way of communicating this - Luke

[@jonathanhowe42]

Thanks for sharing! Most of these are probably too much for me, but I think the HotA would be something I'd like to check out sometime. Where does the cinematic-like version of the Castle town come from?

[@LTGamingYoutube]

It was a project of H3 made in the Unreal 5 engine, just the video though 😭 - Tom

[@jonathanhowe42]

@@LTGamingKZbin Ah, sadness. Pretty cool, though!

[@dismas_enjoyer]

You forgot to mention few things to mention about Legacy of the Silence: 1. Its dont have new war machines for now because of the bug that make game crashes, developer promised to fix it 2. Its crashes kinda a lot 3. You forget also mention about TUM compability (third upgrade mod) which is works for only vannila towns for now

[@CaptainCafe]

Just got this installed on my steam deck what an absolute dream

[@LTGamingYoutube]

Living the life mate! 😁

[@robertvicentejr.5137]

nice i have collection that from hd to original version but this version from vcmi is the best u can control the mods u want to play

[@RDPoi]

Ive never heard of this game before, never heard of this youtuber before, and the video has less than 400 views. I have no idea why I'm here, but it was a fun little watch lol

[@guyrose2239]

Put me down for a bit of horn in the abyss dudes! BTW… my top 3 heroes are L/T and Little H… natch 🐸❤️🇩🇰👶❤️🐸🐌📞🇩🇰❤️

[@LTGamingYoutube]

Indeed the best heroes of all!

[@1907Aries]

Strongest community ever

[@frederikskovby2116]

Thank you for this video

[@thassioalves304]

my top 3 games of ALL, I mean ALL TIME

[@diebewertung4062]

Can i Play Several mods at once? Like era and hofta?

[@MabusCRO88]

Great video!

[@robertvicentejr.5137]

where i can find these cinematics in my heroes 3 no video like that only voice

[@Xaremathraas]

If only any one of these mods let you disable the Cover of Darkness in necropolis town...

[@leyasu888]

If i buy Homm3 on steam will i still have to go through uplay? if i have to then that is a deal breaker for me :(

[@LTGamingYoutube]

Do not buy the Steam version. Buy Heroes 3 Complete from GOG then get the HD mod I mention in the beginning. Then you can apply any of these mods on top. - Tom

[@joshuaortega4240]

So if I have the mod legacy of the silence. So I still need to get all these other mods. Especially if I want the game play to look a lot better.

[@dustinherk8124]

3:09 why is the "red dragon" youngling blue tho?

[@minidreschi2]

because he is still young :D turning red as grow up i guess xD

[@erdembridge]

Dont you think we should stop craeting new factions, creatures. Thats already enough

[@FiremansGaming]

That nwn ost !

[@LTGamingYoutube]

A man of taste!

[@user-et8ul8jm2k]

How do you get the gog version to work? I downloaded it, installed it but it won’t start. The icon shows for a couple of seconds then it disappears. Nothing works. I would love to play with all mods, I do not like the steam version :(

[@MoroZ4300]

Did you install DirectPlay? Windows should prompt the installation

[@szumbag]

Love the new life being breathed into this fab game! Thanks for the review! Do you have any read on mod compatibilities can we combine all, some, or none. I am especially wondering about the complete overhaul mods. The combo possibilities seem wondrous but I am skeptical that all can be used at the same time. And some may not combinable from a role playing perspective.

[@apocalypseae]

Unbelievable, how strong is community and how ubisoft waste this potential

[@jyttew6145]

I asked the man behind the bar for the jukebox

[@DoCKathos]

Why is fheroes2 in this list? It's heroes 2, not 3, and you need the heroes 2 files to unlock it.

[@nephretes91]

Tides of War where?

[@kostello2004]

Мужик, ты угараешь? Лучшее, что есть в Героях Меча- HOTA

[@andaur93]

Can i install all of them together?

[@jupixxl]

dekui

[@beeshen4346]

as someone who played most of these mods i can tell that a lot of them is made really poorly (more or less but still), like legacy of the silence which has the most terrible ui and creatures textures i've ever seen + a lot of unnecessary stuff like changed textures of experience or character stats, and have bugs that are screaming to you to not play like vcmi where ai is mostly broken and have no idea what to do

[@StoreslemLilleslem]

wog was fun until you learn to mod yourself. Hota is really bad imo dont get why so many like it, the towns & creatures dont fit together with the other towns at all

[@DoCKathos]

Hota is really bad is such a dumb take. It's easy to mod and keeps the game essentially the same while adding a bit of extra content. The newest town is literally based off concepts from the original design team that never made it into the game, and cove fits perfectly into the homm world. I've tried WoG and it's so convoluted with all the extra crap they've added that I had no interest in learning it or any of the other mods on the ERA3 platform. You're smokin sometin dude.

[@noanyobiseniss7462]

HOMM complete is completely unbalanced! the elemental race is massively overpowered. Shadows of death is the best release unless there is a mod to balance Complete.

[@MabusCRO88]

Horn of the Abyss balances heroes 3 complete

[@noanyobiseniss7462]

@@MabusCRO88 Looked it up and it states this "Heroes of Might and Magic III: Horn of the Abyss (abbreviated as HotA, russian: «Рог Бездны») is a Russian fan-made full scale add-on for Heroes of Might and Magic III: The Shadow of Death, designed to continue the classical Heroes III add-on series of RoE/AB/SoD. " "6. What version of HoMM III is required to install HotA? We strongly recommend installing the official version of the expansion over Russian or English Shadow of Death. HotA also works correctly when installed over the Complete edition. We cannot guarantee the correct performance of HotA when installed over any kind of repack, where some of the original files, deemed unnecessary by the compiler, might be missing. HotA will not install over Restoration of Erathia, Armageddon’s Blade or any fan-made mods, including WoG." I cannot find anything on rebalancing of the Conflux.

[@noanyobiseniss7462]

@@MabusCRO88 Been playing Horn of the Abyss since your comment, tons of fun but it looks like the conflux are still OP and I didn't see any nerfs.

[@Tibor0803]

@@noanyobiseniss7462 Conflux got rather balanced than nerfed to be honest (still op tho): - The default 4 Firebirds/Phoenixes growth with just a Castle been changed to 2 - To get 3 of them, Conflux got a new Vault of Ashes horde building which increases their growth per week by 1 - Furthermore the dwelling and unit cost has been increased, so Conflux is more expensive this way Hota Crew is really conservative with their changes, so whatever they plan to take from the game, will immediately give back to you if you are willing to strive for it a bit more.

[@noanyobiseniss7462]

@@Tibor0803 Thx for the info, yeah Conflux still way OP, it was just massive from the start and so bad we had to ban it in our group. We started off letting peoples kids use it to be competitive but even they became unbeatable in no time. Conflux literally has advantages in every single aspect of the game with zero weaknesses.
