Are Disciples 2 and StarCraft 1 the most underrated strategies, is Disciples 3 so shit? If no, tell about your opinion
>>
Disciples 2 is a shit game too when it comes to gameplay. go attack one enemy then spend 5 turns healing, then repeat over and over again, the gameplay is very simple.
>>

idk, I like D2, yeah I don't like healing in this game but it's still one of my favourite games, I finished all main campaigns including elven alliance
>>

>go attack one enemy then spend 5 turns healing,
This is why you rotate multiple units in and out of your party so that you do not need to spend 5 turns healing.

Alternatively play Empire and upgrade to Cleric route and cast your T2 healing spell.

You can use potions to heal.

Never build the temple however. Don't buy the potions either instead hire large amounts of thieves and steal everything from the shops.
Thiefs steal 1.5 items on average before dying and cost 200 gold so everything costs in practice ~133 gold on average. It's even recommended to steal useless high value items like Talismans just so you can sell them back to the store.

Why not?

Because the reviving and healing there costs absurd amount of money. That is unless you lock your units to tier 1 which is another strategy. Reviving a tier 5 unit costs 1000 gold and then healing costs several thousand more. Why pay those costs instead of using stolen potions?

This is true and fair for the high level units potions are more worth it. But otherwise it is not THAT expensive, level 2 units only cost 200 to revive which the equivalent a thief. If you are holding multiple towns those are a fine tradeoff. Level 3 is 400 where the equivalent of the price of a Revive potion or 2 thieves. (I think heroes also cost 200 to revive but not sure)
Instant healing does cost a lot and potions are quick that is true.
>Why pay those costs instead of using stolen potions?
Wares can be on limited stock in shops. You might not have access to shop when revive is necessary.

>the requirement of marrying a Korean girl might as well be beating her father in 1v1 on Lost Temple
C'mon anon.
As for Disciples 2, I wouldn't say it's underrated - every Slav gaymer worth their salt knows about it. Its gameplay ensures that the game can really be enjoyed in singleplayer, for better or for worse.
I personally haven't played D3 so I can't cast judgement on it. I just know most people think it's a pile of shit, so I never felt the need to dig through all that shit just to find a crumb of gold.

>Because the reviving and healing there costs absurd amount of money
It's more important to get your high-teir unit back online immediately and keep the tempo than it is to save up a few thousand gold. This applies especially in the lategame, when you will be able to earn that gold in just a few turns.

>the requirement of marrying a Korean girl might as well be beating her father in 1v1 on Lost Temple
I suppose that explains why Korean birth rates are the lowest in the world.
>>
>>2470305
I tried to play D3, the style is very good but everything other is shit, but D3 is even better than Disciples: Liberation, so it's not worst Disciples but still bad
>>
>>2470408
There's also Disciples: Domination (the sequel to Liberation). I haven't played it but it doesn't look good.

D3 wasn't good, but after 3 re-releases (Renaissance, Resurrection, and Reincarnation) it was at least good compared to what came after.
>>
>>2469848
For terraforming?disciples is great and 3 doesnt fail on that regard (even mountains are changed).

For soul (asthetics, music and style) it is also a pretty good game.

For lore and gameplay heroes and aos are better.
>>
>>2470355
You used to bring in your best man for a 2v2 but that overloaded the net cafes.
>>
>>2470467
D3 looks really good, but that's HoMM 3 but in Disciples style without unique features of D1/D2 and boring to play
>>
>>2470412
yeah, Domination doesn't looks good, I tried to play Liberation but demo version of this shit is more than enough for me
