I loved MM 7 and 8

@@martialarts9739 For me it's M&M6/8 and HoMM2 that were the best ones xD
What does homm stand for?
@@mxb1585 heroes of might and magic
@@mxb1585 heroes of might and magic, it is the turn based strategy based on similar stories. The music is amazing.
I really miss the old M&M 6 times :) for me the best
I'm fairly certain I clocked well over 100 hours on MM6. Although that's probably par for the course!
Поддерживаю! )))
@@phyrr2 I probably clocked in way more than 100 hours and then played it a 2nd time years later.
@@phyrr2 love VI but too much mazes and enemies! Too deadly locations (Tomb of Varn!). Better like VII.
6 and 7 for me
I'm from Taiwan and M&M6 7 8 is my memories too , I want to thank 3DO , MM6 makes my life complete! best game ever!
HAha Nerd
Yeah I am from Beijing, and MM6 is just the best game ever god yeah !
More line that New World Computing. 3DO was the reason they fucked up after the 6 Part like: "We want a game every year"
A certain African warlord brought me to this series.
Hey people
real
I miss the good old atmosphere of Might and Magic games :(
you felt like you were really in that meadow in that fantasy realm, didn't you? the music, the sounds of birds, just everything transported you there.
My favorite game ever😍😍😍
I used to spent several YEARS to make the complete walktrough of this series of games！！！
Oh, those good old days😁
MM3 was the first one I played. It was fairly clunky but I loved the vibrant art and the insane variety of monsters. After playing D&D games for so long, it was a breath of fresh air. Tried 6, 7 and 8, but just couldn't get into them. Clouds/Darkside of Xeen was still the pinnacle of the M&M series for me. Massive, and so much fun.
Nice so you are the old school player then. Greetings!
My fauvorite M&M versions was 6,7 and 8 :D!
Yes, they had the old Elder mythology with sci-fi elements and Sheltem as the archenemy. Sadly they dropped all those so that from part 7 on the series became meaningless.
@@KaceSeba me tooo
Aah, Might & Magic 3 to 5. This brings back so good memories. 😊
MM7 for me! Loved it even more than 6.
My first Might and magic what I play was 7 :)!
Likewise here
I am yet to play a better rpg than MM7
The best RPG of all time. The story is fantastic, the dungeons were cool (Titan’s Stronghold!), the quests were interesting and motivated you to complete them.
What but my dad likes might and magic 6
MM6 is by far my favorite...but MM3 has a special place in my heart!
Agree
Perfectly fitting choice of music track there
Thanks :)
I've just finished MM6 today. Before I had finished MM7 (the first one, ten years ago), MM8, MM9 and MM10 (this one last year). I love those games. I tried to play MM1 to MM5 and I found it impossible once you'd played from MM6 on.
Wow Mandate of Heaven, just bought the 6 pack with it for 2.50 on gog right now for the spring sale. Seeing Mandate was nostalgic af. I remember the bloody realistic faces when people got injured used to kind of scare me.
Same! I just got it and been enjoying Mandate so much again. I used to have to do the dark dungeons with the sounds off cause I'd get scared as a kid haha
M&M 3 was my absolute favourite, I loved that game!
Mine too! My first game of all time
Yes, Might and Magic 7, where the flight skill and strafing in real-time make you IMBA by spamming arrows. I wish Ubisoft continue with the franchise (no not the mobile game they have) or remake the very old M&M.
Ubisoft can publish them? they should release collection of all the games on all platforms! they really are wasting their time and money on other things, its madness having Beyond Good and Evil 2 developed for so long. even as dumb as Square Enix is, they have been porting their old obscure series like SaGa to current platforms. even Sword and Fairy got 2 of their games on current consoles, and Blizzard remastered D2 on platforms. they dont have to be remasters, faithful ports with controiller adaptation can be done., if even classic Doom games made it to current consoles, all Might and Magic games can be ported too.
I loved playing M&M 8, it gives me so much nostalgia to see this :)
Six, 7, and 8 are still my favorites.
This vid is quiet, simple and beautiful. Just like MM series.
:)thanks
MM6, 7, and 8 are the best. MM7 is my favorite among them. There’s actually a mod that merges all 3 continents and allows your party traveling between Enroth, Antagarich, and Jadame. Super fun invading that damn pyramid in Dragonsands with dragons from mm8 in your party :)
Too bad they couldn’t finish MM9 :( The gameplay is fun. The spells are cool and different from each other, the class promotion quests are interesting and actually challenging. I do hope JVC buys M&M franchise back from Ubisoft and starts a kickstarter for a new game. That’d be awesome.
Whoa, wait there! What mod? :O
@@alexandrupatru2892 Rodril's Merge 678 on celestialheavens
@@cthulhuscr Thanks!
played all of those 3 and only them. 7 was definately the best, could have been longer to beat though, thats its only weakness compared to 6. I mean those games are far from perfection and unbalanced - but they are about the most important thing, they are FUN. If i look at modern games today they lack that stupid fun thing, everything feels too controlled and feels like a spread sheet.
@@zeusapollo6504 the only one I ever played was 6 and it was my sister's favorite game. My uncle had made a giant cheat book of all the secrets and glitches in the game, such as the flight scroll that you could use at the first town to get to the end area, where you could run past the dragons and go to an area to get free endgame loot. Pretty fun
Very Nice to find still today this type of video! Personally, i have known this licence with the fourth opus. My father played at this game and i looked behind him, the eyes full of stars!
So cool how the old ones were done i can see how that would blow someone's mind back then
Mm6 is the best game ever. I still listen its musics sometimes
Thanks for the vid!
6 for me was by far the best... I would love to see a remake for consoles. ;)
Welstiel w You have a point but you don't need to be an ass.
@Welstiel w You are the one that's crying here kid
@Welstiel w For someone born in the late 70s, I found your reply baseless and non-sense lol
@Welstiel w You're so pathetic man. Just give it up.
@Welstiel w Still crying son?
6:46 I remember that moment like yesterday, good job :D
thats the best might and magic game in my opinion
Agreed. Would love it if they released a map maker for this game so people could remake it with new story lines!
How the hell do you kill Titans and Dragons that easily :O
Although I don't mind the realtime graphics of the newer ones, there was a certain quality to the World of Xeen (which I played when young) that made it feel like your traversing across vast distances and landscapes. It really did feel like an enormous world. The newer ones, although more realistic, seem somehow smaller. Such, I suppose, are the advantages of symbolic drawings of mountains, clouds and forests that allow you to imagine journeying across a vast world.
Awesome video!! I didn't even know about 10! I really hope they fixed all that was so annoying about 9, that installment really caused my progress to stall with the series so I am hopeful that 10 will offer some redemption
You out did yourself great video TYTY .
Like many other, 7 is my favorite. The story is just gold. You win a castle in a tournament and must now start to fix your property, which leads you deeper in deeper...
But what a love most about the M&M games is,m how the skills and ranks complement each other, and you have to carefully plan your team in advance if you want to maximize your potential.
I also loved M&M:X. The classes where fun and distinctive. The fighting was fun. Its a shame how Ubisoft treated that game....
M&M and Ultima series - absolute best in RPG gaming, unmatched
would say Wizardry series is better than Ultima, especially Wizardry 7 and 8, and on par with Might and Magic's best.
@@fivefive9514 well, I wouldn't agree with that - while Wizardry is definitely a great game with fun gameplay, the plot and story in Ultima are way more interesting and entertaining, on par with Might and Magic series. I would put Wizardry in the third place after M&M and Ultima, together with the Elder Scrolls.
@@Baranikas The Ultimas have a good atmosphere but the combat isn't the greatest. I don't really care for the story, I just enjoy the open world, especially in 6 and 7 (Black Gate). Wizardry 8 would still be higher on my personal list though.
Whoever it was at Ubisoft, that thought bringing gridbased movement back to M&M was a great idea, was an absolute turdmuffin.
MM6 is my favorite. I like many of the changes in MM7, but 7 and 8 really lacked some more dangerous areas. There was so much open world to explore in MM6 compared to the later ones, and the enemies were harder and more numerous. Some dont like the huge dungeons in MM6, but i liked the adventure of it
Castle Darkmoor tested my will to live, but it's still fun. MM6 vets know you don't fight your way through Darkmoor--you gun for the memory crystal and book of liches and use a gate master follower to peace out. God, I love 6, though.
I felt those parts were just annoying and did not translate well to having fun, MM7 was too easy at the end and shorter, but very well executed and polished. MM8 felt more like a joke and could be beat very fast, but still fun in a weird way.
Can anyone tell me how to make MMXI look good on a 1920 res monitor? It looks awful. I've tried for years, and it hasn't worked.
m&m 9&10 "it s ok guys , sorry we were drunk"
Ahhh MM7... love it!
MM6 was the best game ever. I would pay GOOD money for a VR updated version. !!
you love mm6 and are pretty. i love you.
World of Xeen was the best. I love that game. I don’t even really like any of the others, but WoX is awesome.
Same! Love the pixel art, chiptunes, etc :)
Right there with ya. The art from 3 and Xeen is still special to me, and honestly those are the only games of the series I really enjoyed, World of Xeen being the top dog of course.
Liked M&M 3-5 most. Solid turn-based RPGs with nice story background. Sadly, they dropped the Sheltem nemesis after part 5 and the sci-fi elements after part 6.
I’m with you.
Too bad you're not continuing the series, it's really good!
MM10 was surprisingly good. Adored the game mechanics. If they had some more variety in character development and less linear gameplay it could have been an epic game.
Unfortunately it doesn't sound like it sold well and I guess with that the RPG side of the license is dead for now. :(
It was Might and Magic in name only.
@Welstiel w 10 was not terrible.
It wasn't just kinda linear it was walking down a hallway. I hated it.
@@westonhall9605 Probably depends on what you expected. I expected very little from Ubisoft, but what I got was enough to make for one good playthrough. Only one though, because linearity and replayability don't go together.
Best series in history of gaming.
Can't wait to tell my son that I grew up on this: 5:55.
Used to play Might and Magic 2 on a Mac SE. Fond childhood memories.
1 & 2 are my favorite still.
One thing I'm sure of is that the artists who made these games would have no issues taking the psychological test where you need to draw a non-existent animal.
6,7, 8 were the best in the series and I'd have to pick 7 as the absolute best. Perfect balance of game play and story
MM7 was perfectly polished and executed and took place in the most popular world of erathia, even tho i rooted for enroth and archibald, i have to admit that game world taken from Homm III was far more interesting than all the other ones combined.
I wish they released a map maker that runs on the MM7 engine. I would even take a remake of 6 or 8. Those were my favorites.
MM6 and MM7 use the same engine iirc. The certainly look the same.
I actually meant to say 6 or 7. I must have bumped 8 instead. 8 was good too, I just wasn’t as big on the story line.
There is editor for it and it doesn't limit on just world/dungeon crafting. Made by Sergey Rozhenko aka GrayFace (google it)
Oh wow I didn’t know about either of them. So cool! Thanks for letting me know!
A merge of all 3? Heaven!
The perfect combination of might and magic
M&M8 for me the bestest. Still listen to this soundtrack and reminds the Air Dimension.
Heeey, those are my videoes being used for MM7 Titans Tower and MM8s Temple off the Sun! Nice to see. :)
I still remmemeber playing Might and Magic Legacy X, so dissapointed, expected more after Might and Magic 9 was masterpiece. But the game had bug that you couldnt progress if you didnt have enough dexterity, I started the game with full dexterity but still that didnt fix the bug and the support were no help... waste of time.
I love the earlier Might and Magic Tavern card game within the game, those were always nice.
Same here, on all counts
It really was something else when it came to the setting. Sword and Sorcery with ancient aliens and super computers.
Where is Might and Magic Swords of Xeen?
Is there any MM game in development btw? Thanks for reply.
*QUE JUEGASO PAPA!* Nostalgia terrible, jamás volverá haber sagas como esta. En especial el M&M7 que está mortal! se notó mucho el cambio, el salto que pegaron de su antigua temporada, ya era el comienzo del surgimiento de los primeros videojuegos modernos en el que se hacían simulaciones de profundidad y el famoso parallax, todas las técnicas que utilizaban hasta ese entonces eran únicas y muy limitadas, en esos años había que re-buscárselas para crear tal efecto y calidad gráfica, ES QUE AHÍ ESTA TODO! en el M&M7 puedes ver todo el laburo y la magia que eran capaces los programadores de hacernos creer que NO ERA TOTALMENTE PLANO ya que todo esta hecho en 2D pero de alguna forma aplicaron técnicas para dar la sensación de estar jugando en 3D. Con la llegada de Game Engines como Unity y Unreal al mercado, ésto dejo de ser un fastidio y ya se integraban nuevos avances, nativamente ya se podía trabajar en el entorno 3D. Por eso M&M7 tiene un valor único, ahí se puede apreciar las técnicas que utilizaban en ese entonces, eran realmente fabulosos lo que podían hacer con POCO, se las ingeniaban muy bien para simular la profundidad 3D (lo pueden ver en los cuerpos muertos XDDD que lo delatan.... por más que des la vuelta el cadáver del monstruo sigue tumbado en la misma posición y ángulo jajajajajaj) unos verdaderos CRACKS. Saludos.
Is there another game series similar to this? ive played M&M 6-8 countless times. Only games i could find thats vaguely similar was Wizardry 8 and a lesser known game called Wizards and Warriors.
Wizardry 8 is a GEM in every single way. From character development to story just top notch. I never tried Wiz and War though...can it be played on modern PC`s, is there a version i could download..??
Which part is the best?
Is there a game like this combined with PvP or multiplayer?
would be a huge undertaking, but would love to see a video showcase every monster from the franchise
people have done more for other rpg series, this series should get more fans.
Evolution rules us all. But it's beautiful.
Going from six characters to four after Xeen, I was like "what the hell?"
I personally prefer MM4+5 above all the rest. The pixel art is very appealing, the music is unforgettable, and the mechanics are just right and feel great.
But it's almost unplayeble now because of a lot of mouse clicking for moving, atacking, actions and a lot of party managment. Nevertheless it's a history and it's nice that someone still loves this games.
@@heroicalMead I would disagree. The interface is pretty simple and there are keyboard shortcuts to get where you need to go. However, it can take some time to get a hang of.
@@mightykitten4615 You might be right, I tried to play an old MM games (being a big MM6-10 fan) a long time ago and I've been confused a little; perhaps I was just too young :)
@@heroicalMead Well, I was 13 when I played it so to each his own. Its kinda like Deus Ex. I personally was fine with the slightly clunky controls, but others weren't.
@@mightykitten4615 By me side I've never played earlier versions of might and magic and started with MM7 when I was about 15 years, so for me it was difficult to run into older mechanics despite my tries. I really would like to play every MM game, to feel the history by my own. Seems my only hope is a remakes of Isles of Terra and Xeen.
if 3DO released MMORPG in 2000 - 2003 the gaming history could be changed forever
6 and 7 were so awesome
WHERE TO?
nice
thanks, very useful video even though not the type of game i'd play. i'll stick to heroes might and magic :D
i wish Ubisoft bring back the series for a new game. Gameplay like MM6 or MM7.
I love pretty much all of the Might & Magic games, except for M&MX, I refuse to acknowledge that game ever happened.
I can't wait for M&M XI :)))
probably wont happen
I wish like this games to come back in 2024
World of Xeen (4+5) and MM8 are my favorites
Its funny, I used to hate the save mechanic and needing to eat and drink. I remember getting my party through a horribly difficult dungeon (I think it was MM2) only to die from starvation one square away from the inn where I could save my game. Why they put this mechanic back in some current games I will never understand.
Ok so im confused. I played mm6-9 hated 9 (loved 6-8)
But the mm10 i remeber was way more linear and only had one character? Am i tripping? Was that a dif game where you were something like the "spawn of a dark lord"???
I think you're talking about Dark Messiah of Might and Magic
Офигенное начало👍
I spent the most time on MM3 - you had to really know your lore back then, if you wanted full rewards. And it had stuff like the jealous King who took out revenge for the Queen's affair with Smello the Orc....
Is this genre dead? Can't find anything that isn't grid-based or dungeon only anymore.
Meanwhile, the antichrist is just kicking everyone around.
I played the shit out of might and magic 6 as a kid...seeing this is trippin me out! so much nostalgia.
4 and 5 were my favorites
Rival to Wizardy! and The Bard's Tale.
All about number 6!
Out of the 10 Games, 3, 4 and 5 are the only ones I did not play
M&M 4 and 5 is my favorites.. It's funny.
How did MM6 look better than MM7 and 8?
It doesn't, MM7 is a great upgrade of MM6 and even MM8 is a good continuing of MM series.
@@roxterat in fact no, MM7' textures are dogshit
both MM7 and MM8 dungeons look worse than MM6 for some reason
They reduced the pixel count on sprites from 256 to 128. Performance reasons suppodedly. Bad decision.
As a PC gamer, I still gotta say MM2 was best on the Genesis.
I like Dungeon Master more than MM1 - MM4 series, even MM5 is kinda weird in comparison, but boy did they smacked the real thing right after that..
@@roxterat DM was excellent too. Really liked the skill system.
Ever play Wizards and Warriors? Or Wizardry 8?
I loved the arena system in MM2 (three arenas and four tickets, i.e. 12 arena tiers, all of which you could access from the very start of the game via city portals), and I agree, it was best on the Genesis. It was such a fun (and optional) way to level up characters, and I haven't seen a similar system in any game since.
mm6-7-8 best games for sure
Dungeon crawler games were my fav but I never had a chance to play the M&M series, only ever played the Heroes games. M&MX was ok but they kinda did it dirty.
lol MM3 had Ed-409s in it.
Robocop!
3 is under rated as fuck. Everyone likes to talk about world of xeen for old school or mandate of heaven for 3d ones but 3 was so solid. Even the first two are good but hard to get into just cause keyboard only control
Anyone remember the demo games that came with it? There was one with a group of elves please help haha!
9:22 RIP
My favorite mm 7and mm8
10 didn't deserve its hate. It was great in its own way.
Even so, 3 and 6 are my faves
8 for me was the best.. and still is
Oh god the pseudo-3D ones after World of Xeen were so god damn bad. I just barfed in my mouth a little remembering them.
Ubisoft have bought this great licence but they don't create any new game as mm6 & mm7, the two best games
4:53 No smooth moving or turning till 1998 version 6.
I remember playing Might and Magic, not remember which chapter, but I know it was in 3rd person. First mobs were goblins.
Anyone can help me clear my doubts?
Sounds like MM6, my personal favorite!😁
I think you are talking about Crusaders of m&m
Gameplay didn't change, but franchise still died, classic hypocrisy of the fans
