Man I think IV was the BEST homam in the whole series. And sadly it will stay the best. :P

+Adam Kalla Yep me too

Dingousopp The only issue with IV was massive overhaul of mechanics - some of them really, really good, some of them really, really bad. But when compared with all the shit that went on in non-3DO games, there are NO issues whatsoever with IV. Plus it had EPIC campaigns and music that never before or after was so damn good in entire series. Seriously, if the game ever had a chance to be properly done (it was rushed thanks to bankrupcy), it could end up with better legacy than III.

Myrth1 The battle mechanics was one of the best features of IV, heroes fight, no stupid grid, FAST COMBAT, spells. Ofcourse music was awesome as well. ;)

Adam Kalla Glad to know at least SOME people find fighting heroes a great thing instead of calculating how hard they can break the game by all-hero army. FINALLY heroes were something more than just a way of providing flat bonus to stats of units and wearing items for more flat bonuses. Hell, items overhaul, to make them more important than just +m to N was great too. I never truly understood why poeple are angry with all those improvements. Sure, there are many issues with vanilla AI and certain things are outright bugged, but come on! As a game created as swan song of a bankrupt company rushing it for sales, this is pure epicness.

Hydras? o.O Where's my Dragons? :(

YankaRonin it has a magical storage room inside its hull with capacity of over 9 billion tons...as for +roxterat > dont worry, they have wings

winged hydras, now I've seen it all..

roxterat no, i was talking about dragons obviously -.-

oh, so you mean they don't need place on ship, right? I wish tho.. everybody needs a place on earth, it's not fair to discriminate dragons too..

Those things that iritated some players made this game great for me. It's unique and I'm in love with all awesome themes and campagins it holds. The game itself wasn't bad - just diffrent.

Agreed. It was better than HoMM III's and less cliché than HoMM V's.

Yes, man! Music is magic in this game!

The music in this game was half the reason I'd play it. I remember just leaving my computer on in the grasslands or sea and be inspired while creative writing.

Lajos Cumeláger Some))) The absolute majority. But the music is amazing thanks to Mr. Romero

So true... so true...

Yes

Same. Though the first time I did that was in the Life campaign, the water wheel stage. I kept someone on a bridge.

Isn't it good then that youtube finally added the "loop" feature :D

+pateuvasiliu Well, Heroes III & V are the best games for me. But Heroes IV has the BEST MUSIC in the whole series. 97% of Heroes IV looks great, but the 3% that kills the whole game is the siege combat. Why? 1. There is no catapult. (Except it's an own neutral unit) 2. The attackers can't shoot over the walls, but the defenders can. WTF? 3. It's really hard to understand how long the creatures can go. :)

+guaskoqizz You can love it, or you can hate it, but do it it other places.. leave this place untoched

Aleksandr Azimov I'm just saying that the siege combat is the ONLY thing that sucks. Rest of the game is beautiful :)

+guaskoqizz The all IV sucks except this beautiful music :P If you love HOMM III as I do, try In the wake of Gods mod ^^ it is very nice!

No :)

Где огромные волны и смерть

Not to mention Rob King.

Thanks @PAULanthonyROMERO

If you don't know, Romero just use a music library, that calls AMG Celt...

@@MrSunrisesongs Here's the original. It's also been used in other games/movies etc. soundcloud.com/samples-now-com/bayside-waltz-full-mix

He's not a genius, just a thief who steals songs from other composers and claims them as his own. He stole this song and a lot of others from the Complete Celt library. The songs that he composed himself are all shit.

Right? I was so damn young when i played this game for the first time. I can't believe I'm already 16 years old.. >w> Where'd the time go?

Man y'all making me cry. I'm 23 already!

+ImMikeyBallinBitch to..try and make you people feel better..you can still get homm3 and homm4 on computer..i did..lol

This song in particular, along with the Order theme, brings some powerful feelings of nostalgia. It's been years since I've played HOMM4. The soundtrack is beautiful.

I'm 25 but still listen to this theme. HOMM3 was my first computer game, and HOMM4 - first game I installed at my computer. It was damn.....18 years ago lol

;)

Making a talentless hack who can only steal good tuned from other, more talented composers your inspiration is a pretty dubious decision. If that's any indication of what your music sounds like, it's probably shit.

Keep doing man!

@@inferionemperor5219 I'm sorry but the fuck you're talking about?

@@inferionemperor5219 Actually, while samples and general theme was taken from AMG library "Complete Celt", basically just 2 samples "Bayside Waltz "and "Across the sea" mixed up, still we should appreciate, that Paul Romero while creating sea theme kept updated his sample library, taped "sea" in search engine in his sound mixing program and has good enough taste for music to choose and mix up them correctly. Still, creators of samples and bitmakers made marvelous job as well.

@@lwpss I guess, he is talking about AMG sound samples library "Complete Celt" 2001 edition where there are 2 quite peculiar demo tracks 1. soundcloud.com/samples-now-com/bayside-waltz-full-mix 2. soundcloud.com/2x2mvdpsf8fd/amg-complete-celt-demo-track-8 But knowing copyrights rules for them, technically, Paul Romero is still author of tracks. And as well, I wonder if actual authors didn't contested him in court about profit made out of them, bcs they definitely could make this. As well as library state that demo tracks were created by Riverdance musicians. Who are quite professional collab of Ireland perfomers as well.

Heroes had soundtrack in mp3 in the game folder since Heroes 3. What a waste of a save slot :)

Rob Z. I'm fairly sure Heroes 4 doesn't, but I'm gonna have to check again

Hahah, a smart move!

Я не играл в 4ых героев, музыку эту первый раз услышал в детстве когда играл в Корсары 2, она играла в тавернах, только в другой аранжировке. У меня почему то ностальгия по Корсарам

@@michaeltiora5576 приятная атмосфера была в Корсарах 2

да и так лучше, я думаю

We have similar worlds man, separated by language, nation, but we share this

Никто пишется слитно, неуч

Помню, вообще был не любитель читать эти вставки в кампаниях, но как-то при игре за Голдота прочитал парочку и понеслось :) Даже играл с нетерпением ожидая следующей вставочки, чтобы прочитать, что там дальше по сюжету идет!

голдот полумертвый))блин до сих пор помню)чтоне компания то шедевр! за природу и Элвина и Шаэру до сих пор цепляет

Гаулода полумертвого из четверки почему-то все запоминают. Вообще все герои интересные, но он, Элвин и Тауни Балфорт - как книгу читаешь. Четверка вообще одна из самых настольных и продуманных по сюжету и сложности геймплея стратежек. Жалко что ЦА нужен графончик и изи то плей- хард то маста. Так как дофига в четверке не очевидных вещей и слишком пожирающая всё РПГ составляющая когда пак героев после раскачки превращался в пак оф дум.

Faith Keeper прлностью согласен

@Матвей Николаев Троглодиты же))

Nothing beats HOMM IV, even III.

***** I can respect that, IV was a memorable game to say the least!

Heroes 2 is my favorite for nostalgia purposes. It's a great game, too. Heroes 3 and 4 are excellent as well. Overall, I would agree that 3 is probably the best.

Fingolfin3423 I have to agree here. HOMM III was the best, HOMM IV was the second best!

NismoUbergaming™ I grew up with HOMM IV. Though I like HOMM III, for me HOMM IV is the best!

Moja ulubiona to 3 Ale Muzyka w 4 Jest Najlepsza

+Sacheess What's hope?

It's also sometimes called "dirt theme". It's one of sountracks in H4(HIV name looks strange xD)Ferdi NaND

Glad, you've answered. Yeap, dirt theme is how it is called in ost that i have. Actually all the themes sound very pleasant, but the sea theme is the best in my opinion.

+Sacheess Nah...Heroes 4 Dirt theme is an extremely generic track. Why not listen to Heroes 2 Swamp Theme or literally any of MM6 songs?

Alonso de Hojeda I played about 2 hours in HoMM 2. But the music in MM6 and MM7... My favourite is one of MM6 dungeon soundtracks(it was 5th probably)

True. I could listen to this piece in particular for hours and dream.

wsdaad ja też xd

Prawda, niewiele gier dorównuje soundtrackiem Herosom 4. Jedynie Gothic 3 je przebija

Artok Mobilnie racja :D

Ten soundtrack jest też w Heroes VII i myślałem, że to jest z VII xD. Nie za dużo grałem w IV, bo to najgorsza część moim zdaniem.

Ты забыл сыграть в четвёртые Герои.

=НУ ПО ИГРАЙ,БЛИН ...........ТАМА ХОТ ДО ПИЛЕНО ТО ШО В 3х БЕСИТ..............

Just play it man. Get some cheap laptop and buy it on good old games

@@fittushattana "buy it" - Don't pay for free things.

​@@fittushattanaЭто можно на современном компьютере тоже, Герои 4 не сильно капризничает на современных машинах

+Swordswoman u speak the truth for the older Homm games, the newer ones are rather shit, imo 1-4 = great rest not so great :(

I forgot, who said that?

@@alluurpo Tawni Balfour. Her campaign involves a lot of sea, so it reminds me of this tune

Stonem001 Oh yeah, i really love the beginning, i wasnt ever motivated to keep with the missions, you think its a good campaign?

@@SB-hq3gb it was my favourite - watch out though, pirates tend to double cross!

@@stonem0013 Alright, I'll try it, thanks!

100% +1

а еще во вторых корсарах была эта музыка в таверне (которые типо пираты карибского моря)

W rzeczy samej bardzo nostalgiczna nutka >_>

I love this tune

Aleksandr Pistoletov riding a big rubber dolphin on the beach.

Hey hey people

I can't hear this song any more without the image of Aleksandr Pistoletov riding a rubber dolphin

i recomended ost from sea dogs

I recommend play Sea of Thieves 👌

IGGY It hits me so hard.

delhigod It Always does cuz nostaligia mostly comes from awsome memories and the fact that most stuff that gief u good nostalgia is from Work of arts :) when it comes from games :) ofc it can come from other sources hehe

best 2:17 in youtube. -217 ❤ -1 💀

Go to Somalia, hehe.

Damn straight! Good idea.

theres a new sea dogs game on steam now sea dogs to ech his own pretty cool sea dogs 2 had this theme so hope the other new game wil get it too

Being a pirate is way more shit than you could imagine

We know. Let us dream! XC

Oh wow. Starting your HOMM4 adventure with Tawni campaign sounds brutal. I can't even beat the first mission while I don't have many problems with other campaigns.

It was 20 years ago man!!!! I know its fucking insane. Time flies......

Пол гениально взял кельтский мотив из стоковой базы, и гениально его замиксовал)) но сделал ли он это гениальней ребят, что гениально замиксовали этот же мотив для вторых корсаров? Кто поймет этих гениев...

Seadogs 2 and heroes 4 knew what they're doing

Oh, yeah, I remember her... 'Good riddance, I say'

This fucking tawny balfour and pete. I hated his campaign. We had 2 shitty pirates at the beginning, 13 points in attack, and we had to take a large map with more than 6 castles.... with level 12 maximum (difficult to become a good heroes). I spent at least 20 hours before winning the first mission

Kazmistrz1993 Play it now, when it's all fan-patched and the dust is long settled down. The campaigns are pure epic. Remember the Shadow of Death campaign from 3rd game? Pretty much entire 4th game got this quality of story. It's the rare case when you are playing strategy game for the story. Polecam

Shadow of deadth........mmm it's not about half-dead?

I didn't play HOMM and this is one of my favorite songs from any ost ever.

I know, read my other comment...

+Peppo Peppo it's your other comment that says that you're glad that you aren't the only one who still loves Homm3. XD

Me too. The nostalgia i get from listening to this. The memories of a 6 year old commanding an imaginary army,finding treasure and battling enemies. And finally:this song :)

His name is Paul Romero 👍

Heroes 4 and Dark Souls 2 have that in common (made after a great game and tried some experimental changes). HOMM IV was very fun to play the campaign on when you have a long time to max out your heroes.

Yep, that's where I know this not heroes 4

Да. Прекрасная музыка! У меня на рингтоне стоит. Надо же было такую музыку волшебную придумать!

Heroes 3 better, idk why just played it a lot with all the friends i have, a lot of them and online and by my way from 8 years.

They discuss just music, and have no fuck about gameslol 3 - is perfect gameplay. game-icon. The best homm. 4 - it's so athmospheric than I can meditate near it.Whole game, not just music. And don't even dare to say that i'm not right there.

Whatever, i bet.
