It’s a silly design decision and one that could easily be fixed with a patch. So if you pick the wrong order (and chances are you will), you will be treated to major spoilers. The problem is there is no real indication in which order you should play the campaigns if you want to follow the story in chronological order. Once you complete the required tutorial levels you are presented with the choice of starting separate campaigns for five different factions. The next problem is the structure in which the game’s chapters are presented. I found myself reading the storyline text as fast as I could then skipping to the next paragraph of dialogue (thank god this is an option) just so I wouldn’t have to listen to the entire line being voiced. The first is that the storyline is entirely voice acted, but the combination of cheesy/clichéd fantasy lines and bad voice acting really makes it hard to listen to. The storyline could have been better, but for two poor choices. The story itself takes place before Heroes V and deals with the children of a murdered Duke and their own individual experiences with the fallout of his death. The factions are all led by different heroes who have their own storyline and motivations, but in the end the heroes’ stories are all connected. With each chapter having its own playable faction to control. The single player campaign is very long (so far I have put over 40 hours into it and I still haven’t finished it) and it is broken out into several dozen different chapters. If you’ve never played a Heroes game, but you like board games and turn based battles, then get ready to invest a ton of time into this one. But, that’s also this game’s problem it’s so much like Heroes V that if you didn’t enjoy that game then Heroes VI certainly won’t change your mind. Heroes VI plays a lot like Heroes V, but with the usual graphical improvements that we would expect to see in a current game. Fans of the previous Heroes games will find an old friend with an updated paint job. This time out Ubisoft has changed the name up a little bit calling this entry Might & Magic: Heroes VI. Perhaps it’s best known sub-series is Heroes of Might & Magic which is loved for its solid turn based strategy RPG action.
The Might & Magic series is a well known and loved franchise that has games in several different genres.
