TLDR: the game is nice and has a lot of content coming all the time.

Everyone who's crying about account linking, it was there since day 1, on the front of the store page.

Larian, even on the platform that they apparently didn't enjoy to the full heart, have crafted a masterpiece, that many would argue is the best RPG in the last two decades.

And I won't argue with that either :3

Overall, this was a pleasant experience, albeit different from original KB series.
Good:
- Overall Story: nothing to complain, has some interesting moments.
- Majority of battles, especially in the second half of the game, feel organic and responsive to player's build.
- Hard difficulty does provide decent challenge
- Units, while less numerous, provide some opportunity to craft different builds.
- Units from different ideals feel completely different from each other.
- Arenas and their integration in the world feel organic and fun.
- Healing units after battle gives you much more freedom
- XP system for units is fun and balances previous point
Bad:
- Navigation. Horse. Hooooooorse.....
- Not very polished.
- Repetitive quest design and riddles
- Low versatility on armour sets/equipment overall/spells/ somewhat units
- Balance
Ugly:
- 3d person did more harm than good. Fun from dialogues side, not fun to navigate.
- Unit caps... I can see why they are there, I just don't think they belong in the game this way. Limits army versatility.
- 1 map, while big, will feel like you're walking on the same place for the entire game. Variety in scenery, they built a good world and... I expected more travel.
- Slow ramp up, until mid game a lot feels like a struggle on Hard, but maybe it's expected
- I felt like I was abusing taunts until the last battle, and now I hate the last battle.
- Person who has decided to give out set pieces as random quest rewards -- my personal F word is for you.

Not the best game I've played, not the worst. Satisfies like 2/3 of the King's Bounty checkmarks, and I am happy I have deiced to pick it up.

Didn't expect this, but I actually fell in love with this series. First time playing anything in MH universe, and now, 100 hours later I am sure, that I will spend over 200 hours more, grinding and just having fun. If you liked games from souls series, witcher or similar, you might like this game too. Also, 14 weapons existing now can give completely different playstiles which gives even more choices, as well as replayability.
Totally can recomend!

You should by this game if you:
-Like strategy games;
-Interested in nice story plot;
-Liked Heroes of Might and Magic;
-Liked any other game from the series.

First game from all the "modern" King's Bounties, still replayable 8 years after, shares the 1st place with the Armored Princess for the title of the best game in KB series.

If you ever wondered what is KB -- buy this game. Don't look for the newer ones.
