If 25 hours means a no-bullshit focused story and gameplay without unmotivated fetch quests and meaningless grinding, I'm highly for that rather than the a 80+ hour game where 60% consists of fillers, boring fetch quests and grinding, that plagued so many games of the old times where 60+ or 80+ hours gameplay was mandatory.

DWB's Wizards and Warriors has to be my favorite Might and Magic game. Can't wait for that fucker to do a KS.

But that is completely the opposite of what M&M is about...

Never caught MM virus, the developer is some german shovelware producer not 3DO and it is published by UBI-soft trying to steal some sweet Kickstarter market which is the only reason this thread reached 22 pages. (Cause game looks unsurprisingly like shit for tablets) Skyway is right Jasun Codex is itching for mainstream cock lately. Only redeeming quality of this whole thread is the nostalgia I got from meeting the developer of Settlers II and Albion. :salute: Would play Incubation 2 too This was sweet tactic/logic game.

Uh-oh...

trying to steal some sweet Kickstarter market

And you know what, quite honestly? I, for one, am glad and actually give them much more cred given how this is not a kickstarter. All those kickstarters of everything popping up by everyone, promising the pie in the sky if people pay for development are beginning to seriously friggin tire and annoy me. If this game was a kickstarter project, I would have just hahaohwow'd at it and moved along, but since this is done 'traditionally', I'll follow the development closely because it shows that they are actually taking the ever so slightest risk to do it. If it's shit, it's shit, no big deal. If it's good, it's good, that's cool. But at least it won't be a cashgrab AS big and shameless as some of the kickstarter nonsense that's been happening in recent time.

You people really believe in advertised gameplay time? :lol:
Developers lied a lot more about that during the late 90s and early 2000 than now.

Usually when a dev/publisher talks about game lenght they tend to add a small bunch of hours than what it takes to finish it.Slightly less than 25 hours is a bit disappointing but still cautiosly hoping...

While we're waiting for any relevant information to surface, might as well sift through HoMM6 artwork and see what creatures we're up against...

I love how every much discussed threads on the codex always end up side-tracking on meaningless pedantic discussions about semantics of terms related to games that has absolutely nothing to do with the thread.

Spergs, the site is filled to the fucking brim with the cunts.

Let's analyze your assertion shall we?
