I just finished Might and Magic 8 (also 6 & 7). What a great trilogy of games. I really loved these games and it leaves a hole in my heart that there is nothing else quite like these games and probably never will be.
Yeah, it's a shame there aren't other games like Might and Magic 6,7, and 8 out there.
>>729614301I at least still have the MM7 mod Amber's island. I know it isn't super long but I'm desperate for more of this kind of game.
>6, 7, 8>trilogyBro, zoomers can't even count.
I finished caveman world: mountains of unga booga maybe 2 days ago.I doubt there will be game like that anymore
What made it so good? Looks like a mostly broken blob 'em up from here. I understand it has decent pacing compared to Wizardry but that's not hard, Wiz is slooowww.
>>729614175wizardry 8 is pretty close but not as goodif you're fine with tile-based games check out grimrock &2
>>729614175Now play might and magic 9
What's with Anvil of Dawn?
>>729614657Enroth trilogy. Try to keep up.
>>729614175Time for 9, it's actually enjoyable when you are in MM withdrawalAlso I guess try Legend of Grimrock 1 & 2, I get a somewhat similar feeling
>>729614737Oh shit I almost forgot that I still have Wizardry 8 but haven't gotten around to playing it. It looks good but I'm going to wait for a bit until I get the itch to play these games again
>>729614836>>729614991>play 9
>>729614836that's a good joke
there have been a bunch of solo dev attempts to recreate the genre but it's not really a small-team kind of genre, they've all been pretty bad
>>729614175I really liked the seamless integration of real-time and turn-based combat in those games. When you get strong enough it practically turns into a Musou game, with all the different dopamine hit you get from slaughtering a horde of enemies in real-time. Plus you don't spend an eternity fighting pissweak enemies like in, say, Wizardry 8.
Bit of a left field suggestion, but Dragon's Dogma was the game that most strongly reminded me of the feeling of playing these games.
>>729614175Damn, uncs play ts??
>>729614686I just finished world 1, how are you meant to break eggs in world 2?
>>729614991>>729614836Is Might and Magic actually worth playing? Everything I heard about it was terrible but then again I'm almost willing to play it anyways just because I want more of this kind of game
>>729615286It's not worth it unless you want all achievements.They crack on things.
This game is so fucking racist
>>729614175*AHEM* sniddies
>>729615081>>729615093It's a horrible disappointment after 6-8, but it's still worth playing once, if you liked the previous entries, considering how few of these type of games there are out there.
>>729615487I meant Might and Magic 9 in this post
>>729614836shant
>>729614175Why are these snake women making my dick so hard?
>>729615487I tried to play it twice, once when it came out and again like 5-10 years later. Neither time I got more than about 15 hours in before stopping.
>>729614737For me? It's rhino womensex with rhino women
>>729615554>good marning saar!>where the Aryan (white) men at??
>>729615834*pulls down anon's cargo shorts*ahah look! anon's got a stiffy! anon's got a stiffy for nagas!! haha!
>>729614175sex with monster girls
>>729615969*pokes your eye out*
>>729614175I love MM6 to death but 7&8 are such visual eyesores I just can't get into themwish there was a mod that made them more coherent
>>729615286>>729615526I'm going to sleep but if you're serious about finishing the game. Get the life upgrades. The stamina upgrade is useless. Eggs are useless unless you want to 3 star every level. I'm not even sure if it's necessary for that since the game is shit and probably doesn't work like it said.Enemies go back and forward mostly. Some will chase you, but it's not big problem once you know how they work and have life.Get keys and go to family. Maybe have to get some amount of the collectibles to be eligible to finish the level with one star.God speed.

>>729616410>Aliens arrive to destroy the planet>The humans who follow them are a bunch of jeets who immediately run to Castle Ironfist to start shitting all over the nearby fields
>>729614175Post parties.
>>729615487I don't understand why a certain kind of millennial nerd loves M&M6-8 so much. These may be the ugliest games that ever existed. They are gratuitously inferior to the pixel art games they are sequels to
>>729615554why is there a jew in your blob?
>>729616659Am I the only one who actually likes this portrait and voice? I have to take her on every playthrough
>>729616742I'm actually a zoomer (which is worse) I personally don't find these games ugly. I've never been someone who complains about such shit. I find MM678 to have such a beautiful artstyle that draws my attention unlike most games nowadays that just look so visually bland. These games also have a ton of heart and soul. You can tell that the devs for MM6 had a ton of fun making this game and it shows. It's just a series you either get or you don't. I personally can't get over how much I love these games. It's been a fun month playing through some of these games
>>729615554MM and HOMM games are so extermely redpilled
Is it possible to enjoy these games if you are not a homosexual?
>>729618450Straightest games out there
>see this thread>install might and magic 6>lure the goblins on the coast into town>no one does anythingWow, such immersion. Truly this is the mandate of heaven.
>>729620070>Do this in mm7>They kill everyone in town
>>729616492As above, so below.
>>729620070They start doing that in 7 actually, you can lure baddies into town and they'll start killing people, and the town guards will go after them (and probably get killed too)Don't let them get Malwick though! :)
>>729620282>>729620401So 6 is trash and I should skip it?
>>729620557You should play six first, it's the blueprint.
>>729614175is this the game with ENLARGE
>>729620638What does this even mean? I want to play a good game, not appreciate game history.
>>729620724Not him but 6 is a good one to start with since 7 and 8 are very similar to it, if you don't like it you won't like the others.
>>729614175>OUT OF MY WAY PEASANTDelvin Arcanus suffers no fool
>>729620869>BUY A SWORD OR GET OUT, KIKE
>>729620849What's the reason to play it though? Is is a chronological story? The people in this thread need to actually start talking about the fucking game for once instead of just having another nostalgia circlejerk.
>>729621073Retard
>>729621135Ok, so it's just a thread for turbo boomers talking about how slop is not like it used to be. Don't let me hold you up.
>>729620557You should start with 7 first. It's much easier to get into. Play 6 if you enjoyed it. 6 is a much larger and better game but it's also really frustrating at parts where 7 isn't like that
>>729621073>is it a chronological storyNot really. They take place in the same world but on different continents with different factions and groups. They do have some consistent lore with each other so they'll probably be points where you're confused on a reference
>>729614175during covid, it was the only game that made me spend two full days playing it. no sleep.good game
>>729620869>Vampires are just shitty reskinned rangers
>>729615554Sarah could cast a spell teleporting them to Europe
>>729622027Imagine that loose, cold as ice, dry, vampussy.
>>729622286I now imagined pussy flavored ice cream
>dragon joins the aliensWhy did he do it bros?
>>729615713the ending part is disappointing, and it has a lot of bugs, also its not as big as the other games, but i personally still loves it, at the end of the day, it is still a might and magic game in the style of 6, 7 & 8 just a worse one
>>729616742the environments are usually bad, but everything else is fine in my opinion. I suppose that recolor enemies aren't great either, but I like that better armor looks more fabulous.
>>729622542This always confused me? Why did the dragon join in on the fight on the kreegan side? Is there any lore on this? Are dragons and kreegans allied? You wouldn't think that considering that kreegans want to destroy all life on Enroth
>>729623080Me on the left
>>729615487Heh, it's incredibly ugly, and the story sucks and kinda just ends out of nowhere because they went bankrupt, but appart from that it's a pretty standard and ok M&M.Strangely enough, the UI is actually fucking awesome.
>>729616659>pic relatedMy headcanon is two Irish/Gaelic dudes (Sorcerer and Knight) who meet and team up with a Slavic archer and a Scandinavian healer. I think it fits.>>729621073I haven't played MM7 or MM8 yet, but I heard party formations actually matter in those two games. In MM6 the enemies only hit your party members randomly, which can be a bit irritating. However, I've also heard that that enemies in MM7/MM8 can single out a single party member based on their race/class, which sounds like it could be even more annoying. Might be something to consider if you're planning on starting with either one of those games.
>>729623080>Someone saved my party of masters of the unvierseneat
>>729625112not seeing the equipment on the character and just having a list to store your inventory was awful
>>729625424Heh, kinda true, but I like the cool artworks that change with your promotions and the parchement style. I do hate the inventory list though.Funnily enough, MM10 kept the same menu artstyle
>>729625260>However, I've also heard that that enemies in MM7/MM8 can single out a single party member based on their race/class, which sounds like it could be even more annoyingThey do that in MM6 as well
>>729616359Thanks for the tips anon, and good night
>>729614175There is battle of wesnoth, it's more like HMM 2-4 but it may scratch your itch. The whole game is made by one guy and we should be thankful intensely
>>729614175Imagine six hands and the tail tip each handling one of your pleasure spots while you fk her
>>729627861Jesus would not approve.
>>729625112>No grid base inventory
>>729625260> I've also heard that that enemies in MM7/MM8 can single out a single party member based on their race/class, which sounds like it could be even more annoying. Might be something to consider if you're planning on starting with either one of those games.It really is only a problem in a few areas in both MM7 and MM8 and it's not something to stress over when creating a party
>>729627216Great game.
>>729622027>Minotaurs are paladinsMM8 taught 10yr old me a lot of staple RPG lessons in a really weird way.
>>729622027Honestly this system kind of sucks and I think they only put in the game to make it look like something other than MM7 because it really is just that. MM8 feels more like an expansion pack to MM7 than a standalone game. I really wish I could just create my party at the start of the game instead of swapping characters around it kind of forced me to just stick with the first few companions you find because I can't be fucked into trying to level up a new character and planning a whole new build and juggling around their inventory... all that tedious obnoxious bullshit
>>729614175I'm sorry WHAT Warrior?!
