This game is great but kind of disappointing.

I usually don't like to comment on anything ,but i have played heroes 2,3,4 ( and all of their add ons as well as Might and Magic 6,7,8,9) for a long time. After awaiting this game for 5 years, i think i could have waited a few more months and received a COMPLETE game. The game is great, there is no doubt about that, still it is very frustrating:
-mouths of people who talk just won't budge.
-when creatures walk on corpses, these suddenly disappear.
-Sadly, no shader effects.
-The hero is a heroine and the angel is a girl.
-Some weakly designed creatures:
The Heroes 3 devil looks much better, the hydra has skulls on it ( does a hydra have hands to put skulls on it, or did a simple peasant come and put these skulls on the creature, just to make it scary??!!), ok, a vampire that uses a sword? I recall vampires as creatures capable of sucking blood with their teeth or at least they could attack with their claws. A priest with a hammer or a mace? Moreover, a squire that looks like a crusader ,and wears a plate armor with some gold on it, isn't a squire like a servant?

These aren't really major problems, but they give you the feeling that this game is out before its date : it misses the "final touch" still it doesn't miss the magic.
If only they worked a little bit more on the game, it would have been just perfect, its good looking, innovative and conservative. I would recommend it for Heroes fans and even for others.
