The third and last RPG-related feature within the series of articles about RTS games in 2002 at Gamespor is a preview of Heroes of Might & Magic 4, followed by an interview with Producer Jeff Blatter. Here's something from that:
GS: As we know, Heroes IV's campaign takes place in the new world of Axeoth, to which Emelia Nighthaven escapes after Erathia, the setting for Heroes III, is destroyed. What are the main differences between the two worlds (such as its monster population, or the way magic works)? Can you offer any hints as to how Heroes IV will tie into Might and Magic IX?
JB: First, Emelia's story is the setting for only one of the six campaigns. The others each feature different main characters.
Heroes IV and Might and Magic IX take place on completely separate parts of Axeoth. There is no crossover between the two stories (who knows what the future may hold). One of the main reasons for the switch to the new world is that the old sandbox the designers were playing in was getting too crowded. Now they have a fresh start and are less restricted. |
