What players think
The recurring themes across 209 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
I like new artworks of Lasir or Edric and NPC characters, but artowrk of Heroes are just bad like Azexes, or whatever happened to Aidan.
There are some multiplayer exclusive achievements with at least one requiring 3 other players.
5) Very short duration for each singleplayer faction (took about ~ 2.5 hours to complete sylvan faction and even less for fortress which is good for MP players since they will do it once and thats it but removes any replayability for the classic slow-paced players and the new players who enjoy SP more than MP)
The revised artwork is a mixed bag - some NPCs look better, and the portrait graphics are overall more impressive on a technical level (with finer linework, smoother detail and more complex light rendering), but some of the heroes (like Anwen, Aidan or Nadia) and bosses (Azexes) look rather offputting or stray too far from the sprite design.
UI got an iprovement, like dedicated skip button or "back" option in skirmish menu (in OG you had to use ESC).
At its core, it blends match-based puzzle gameplay with tactical combat and light RPG progression, resulting in a system that feels both intuitive and surprisingly deep.
