Hi, I'm Elly, based in Australia. My channel is all about digital gadgets, gaming, and personal experiences-sometimes it’s about my life and DIY projects. Initially, this was just a gaming channel (mainly Dota 2; Vint is my name in the game), but over time, I realised how much I love sharing all the things I’m passionate about, not just games. That’s why I started this channel. I’m fluent in both English and Mandarin, so feel free to reach out via email: EllyVint@gmail.com.

Hey! How much would you say the battery life has changed in this 1 year?
Not any significant changes in the performance or battery life. So when demanding games remotely with music on, the battery typically lasts no more than 3 hours. I haven’t had a chance to test how it behaves in sleep mode or under less intensive usage, like light tasks or streaming.

Elly, thanks for your review, I wanted to watch the whole videobut I decided to skip straight to pros and cons because the background music is too disctracting.
Thanks for the feedback. I am not good at selecting background music, it will be improved!
Heroes 1 is the best
She's hot
Cool.
Love this comprehensive look at HOMM! Was a big fan of the 6/7/8 of the Might & Magic RPGs too. Always hopeful that Olden Era will be a "new, but captures the heart" of HoMM... Cause there won't really be another HoMM3, and nor should there be! But I'd love to see another unique entry to the series like HoMM5 :)
Totally Agree. HoMM3 is such a classic that it's hard to imagine something else quite like it. Fingers crossed for Olden Era to deliver on that hope! 🤞
I have no idea why youtube sent me here, but I love the HoMM series.
Teehee...TH-cam knows you better than you know yourself! 😏
@@EllyVint I really hope you make more long form game videos in the future. I absolutely eat this stuff up. Best of luck and I hope you grow your channel more.
Yeah you are right! I’ll record some game plays during Xmas, what games are you interested in watching?
@@EllyVint There are so many good old strategy games with no real active content. HOMM series, Age of Wonders series, Majesty. Whatever makes your heart sing! There are newer series that keep the spirit alive, like CK2 and CK3 - if you ever watch HeyCara's channel, she plays a lot of CK3.
I've still got weirdly nostalgic feeling for HoMM4. I know it's not HoMM3, but me and a mate played so much hotseat of that (and the Meridian mod) that it's burned into my mind. Just less micro on the strategic map, and weird strategies (imp waves to mana leech caster heroes, etc). And necromancy got even sillier, especially in the Meridian mod. We kind of banned death, because it snowballed so well in 4. Also loved HoMM2, found it on a BBS as a teenager, and wasted many a school night when I should have been studying or sleeping. Now 2 & 3 have a permanent place on every phone I buy.
Ah, the hotseat memories-those were the days! Btw, I didn’t know we have HoMM games on phones-how did I miss this :O.
The love for Heroes of Might & Magic 3 Complete Edition is the only thing in the world that can unite all of Eastern Europe and The Balkans under one banner. I have had that game installed on every PC I ever owned and I still play it to this day every now and then when I need a couple of hours of detachment from the world.
Same in mainland China back then! OMG, old days no internet, how HoMM3 has this incredible power to bring people together. I am AMAZED how one game can unite so many players across the world. 🌏
Good points. I started with Dynasty Warriors and liked designs of military advisors, so I proceeded to historical TV drama Three Kingdoms from 2010. Some more TV series and couple years later, and I'm nerding on historical recods from Spring and Autumn to Three Kingdoms period and learning mandarin. It doesn't really matter how bull$hit and inventive the story is, as long as it hooks you up enough to get interested in something. It doesn't need to be in line with the traditional version, because you can always get back to the source, and adding some variety how the story is told / presented, saving only the core and essence of it, opens that topic up to a bigger audience, that otherwise might not have touched the topic. I feel that's why Japan has so much influence on the pop culture these days - people do not know and do not care about Japanese myths, legends and history, but people like watching anime - it's easy to digest, and if you watch enough of this stuff, you will bump into some bits and pieces of all this cultural heritage, and the "feel of it" - possibly getting interested and wanting to know more. Chinese stuff is much more obscure to the general public, and that's a big shame, because China history is dope, and it would be cool to see more media - games and tv shows on that.
Thanks for watching! It’s not easy to watch this kind of review with English subtitles-I hope my sub there has made sense, because some points are so hard to translate precisely. I agree with your point on cultural influence. Japan has done an incredible job with media like anime and games. They are accessible to global audiences. At the same time, make them curious to know more. China has such a richer history and mythology. Without thinking of the political reasons, much of Chinese media focuses on domestic audiences, this has limited the accessible formats and hasn’t yet reached that same global familiarity. Another challenge is translating those stories into formats that resonate internationally. I mean not just the language itself, but when it's translated, it may lack that core essence of the culture in ways that are engaging and related.
@@EllyVint You're right, it's hard to save a "soul" of things being said after translation, I've seen this problem many times with slavic languages translated to english. Witcher series are a very good example - original dialogues are fantastic and rich in how NPCs express things - people are silly, boorish, sly etc, while after the translation they sound much like your everyday blank fantasy game talk, because some things do not translate at all or lose it's magic. Sadly I guess the language barrier and how different english and chinese languages are, make Chinese media very separated (it seems a lot of global pages, like social media stuff has it's domestic Chinese equivalent too like Weibo or BiliBili, cementing the separation). I don't know, I guess with a population that big, there isn't that much of a need to export this sort of stuff, because there are a lot of eager domestic gamers / tv show fans. But it's good to hear some games like Black Myth Wukong recently got quite popular around the globe. I vaguely remember this story from old-ass live-action TV show, it was played sometimes in local TV lol. Anyways, thanks for the video, I'm going to Taiwan next year on a trip, so I'm trying to binge eat as much Chinese material I can, to get a better grip on the language on topics I like. There are courses and phone apps for learning, but honestly a lot of situations and sentences showed there are not something I'd personally use in a casual talk (student stuff, work related topics) - while it would be mad cool to try talking a bit about gaming in mandarin.
I despise modern "Heroes" - lazy, uninspired and bad looking games. HOMM3 is still beautiful and it has been 25 years. And the atmosphere of the game is just brilliant, I love every single town you can pick in the game (more or less equally, but especially Fortress, Dungeon and Tower - if you really love the game and do not have strong preferences in what you play, you know it's well done, because people playing the game love everything in it). Heroes 4 loses most of the magic of Heroes 3, towns are not that interesting anymore, the game is probably the worst looking game in terms of graphical design I ever seen :P - It's a very flawed game, but I love it very much as well - music is just as mesmerising as the one in HOMM3, and most importantly it has something unique: fantastic writing! All stories in Heroes 4 campaigns are like very good books and there is a lot of text and reading in each mission. The game may lack looks, but narration just rocks - I still remember Pirate's Daughter and Half-Dead campaigns after all those years! And the spin on Barbarians was amazing! I have very fond memories of the game, and just like in your case, my father has introduced me to the game those years ago. I don't have kids, but I'd like to pass that tradition further lol. It's a very nostalgic game, but suprisingly enough, in countries like Lithuania, Poland, Ukraine or Russia the game's community is still very active playing on a game launcher with a fan made expansion Horn of The Abyss, adding 2 new towns and rebalancing some stuff in the game. The game people usually play is somewhat different from regular Heroes, because most people play on a most trending random generated map template. The main one since a couple of years is Jebus Crossing, where you use your Heroes to capture artifacts and neutral creature dwellings, using your town to limited extend, with the goal to break into the middle of the map with much harder monsters and get stronger than your enemy in first 2 weeks. There was also Jebus Outcast and Vietnamese Diplo with similar concepts but using a single hero, instead of all you can get in the inn. I stronly recommend checking HoTa out, if you had a blast those years ago, it would be a fantastic nostalgia trip with a new spin on the game, especially if you can bring your buddies. There is an active lobby with players inviting to games, but personally I've played the game with my buddies only. There is an option to play simultaneous turns too, so you don't need to wait like in hotseats.
Your passion for the series really shines! I loved playing all towns, but one of the best is Rampart because of the Unicorn- was a little girl preferring a unit with that magical aura🦄And thanks for calling out HoTa. It’s actually quite popular in the Chinese community too. Fans over there have also kept HoMM3 alive with HoTA, and there’s a lot of appreciation on the balanced gameplay. I am so amazed to see how this game continues to unite players worldwide-even after all these years!
@@EllyVint Cool! I haven't heared about HoMM3 Chinese community - so I was under impression it's an almost extinct game by this point besides eastern parts of Europe. It's really good to hear it's still alive in other parts of the world too! I guess game modders are golden saints for every game franchise, keeping things alive and making things interesting after all those years!
Great video, Heroes of the Might and Magic 3 is still my Top-2 game ever and it literally changed my life. As for the video, great work, keep on keeping on, the only two things I'd recommend is adding a bit more enthusiasm and energy to your delivery to make it fresh and a bit less monotonous to go through the entire thing. Would also recommend to work on sound editing to make the sections feel less choppy - don't think there's much you can do about it to be fair, cause quality wise all is really good, think it's just the balance that comes with experience and time. And by any means do not let the above discourage you, I do not mean it in a bad way, just a pinch of constructive criticism. Overall, well done and thank you for taking me back to my childhood.
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts - it really makes the effort worthwhile! - Heroes 3 has a special place in my heart too. 😊 I truly appreciate the constructive feedback.
Spent hours on HOMM 3 trying to learn how to play. Best game ever :)
Agree.Sadly, games like that are rare today-most focus more on flashy graphics than this.
Great video, growing up in eastern Europe, playing HOMM3 on hotseat with friends after school, that brings back nostalgia for the good times that will never return.
Absolutely! Those hotseat sessions were unforgettable and so hard to copy today. I still remember the time when my schoolmates over, we 4 people were sharing a big bottle of Coke while playing-it was the best!😊
Keep working!
Good video ! I still play HOMM3 to this day
Thank you! Hope more and more people will know about this legend game
Fell like back to the childhood days!nice video
This makes every 90s kid nostalgic
哇 第一个赞和评论耶~等我看完去隔壁三连~
你是常年守着我了,哈哈
@@EllyVint 哈哈~是的~
good stuff elly
Looks pretty cool, thanks for the video
thanks for watching!😊
Yeah, the lack of availability of the disc drive is why I have upgraded yet.
Yeah, and the disk drive’s price now is 350 dollars on eBay- insane 😂
请问澳洲的包装是统一没有封条吗?
哎 对哎,我拆的时候好像确实没没封条!
第一时间就买了做开箱分享出来了~赞 好棒~!
还是迟了好几天 🥲因为太忙了
@@EllyVint 辛苦了~~
So good! Get it now!
great I love the portal too
I would honestly give the portal a 10/10 if it weren’t for the God awful touchpad implementation. This and PS Remote Play cram the feature into the touchscreen and it just kills the experience for me imo
Some very handy info, thanks for the video 👌
Glad it was helpful!
I love mine so far. It hasn’t been a month, but I loved your opinion.
@@Leweiseyeah it’s a great product when you need to use it. I feel like my reviews follow a curve - the first impressions are usually more surface-level, but over time (one month, six months, and now a year), I get a deeper understanding of my need of this product. It’s interesting to see how opinions can shift as we spend more time with it - I recall around 6 months time, I wanted to sell it on FB market - but I didn’t, because I need to grind in Diablo games in bed before sleep.
I don’t use it often, but I travel a lot for work, so I take it with me and use it when I’m on the go. It worked great for me in Japan, and it was just as useful in Colombia. I’ve never had the issues some people have reported. I have a 2 gigabit internet connection at home, and my PlayStation 5 is wired. I just got a PS5 Pro but haven’t had a chance to test out its benefits yet. This time, I got an 8TB NVMe to make sure I have access to all my games, especially through my portal when I travel. I love why you decided to keep it. And I love Diablo.
赞!我住这边~店里也看到好多人有买~

Why are you doing american, british and chinese accent at same time?
Interesting to know that, can you explain more? So no Australian, Indian and French accent? English isn’t my first language and I am surrounded by people from different countries, I tend to pick up accents from all over! I guess it makes my accent a bit of a mix - and I’m not sure what it sounds like sometimes 😃 anyway, I hope the reviews is helpful.
@@EllyVint Yes Australian as well. I understand that you are around lots of different people, but I thought it was bizarre that you are seemingly changing from one to the other.
@monk_cs2 Woah, it’s quite interesting, I didn’t realise that. but it’s not my intention to change my accent here and there. It happens subconsciously. Looks like it’s become a blend overtime, and actually I don’t know what exactly my accent is😃
Just found a term online, it’s called “linguistic accommodation”. Interesting!

You cant go wrong with any of these games, theyre all masterpieces in their own way
what do you prefer more . Console or pc gaming
It depends on what games that I play. Like I’d play strategy games and games that need the precise controls on PC. But for story driven games, yes, consoles 😊 I mean it’s all about the games, not just the platforms. And, for some exclusive games, we cannot play it on PCs unfortunately.
@@EllyVint but the exclusive number is so low , And i love aaa title games what about you'
