I feel this this the right thread to post about this:
When I was a kid I dreamed about this game but back then I actually never even heard about it. I've always remembered that dream for some reason but for a very long time, it was just a completely fake game my kid brain completely made up while dreaming. I learned about the actual, real game during the mid 10s and it was very strange how it was exactly what I imagined, especially the creature ships you play as

>It's really weird and creepy how this game's creator committed a grisly murder-suicide in 2007.

>On 10 January 2007, Horne's body was discovered holding his wife Mandy, who had been terminally ill with multiple sclerosis, in their bungalow in Papil, West Burra. The Sunday Times reported on 13 July 2008 that rather than the "Romeo and Juliet" scene described in many articles relating to their deaths, Horse had stabbed her more than thirty times, leaving a broken knife inside of her, he then killed their pets before turning the knife on himself, crisscrossing his arms with cuts and mutilating his genitals, totalling forty-seven wounds until he too bled to death. Actor Tam Dean Burn, who had in the week of Horse's death made a radio tribute to him, said in 2009 after speaking with Horse's female relatives that the 2008 report was "a cruel distortion". It is believed by some that his death was a murder, and not a suicide, as there were inconsistencies with the witness's testimonies, and the door to his home was open when the bodies were found.

>Is there even a game over sequence if you fail?
Yes and it probably made a few young kids cry:

Outrun 2006 is unironically one of the best games ever made and you'd be hard pressed to find anyone familiar with it that doesn't agree

imagine dedicating your entire life to having the best score in a video game then having it taken away from you. Billy doesn't deserve this.

Are there any fix to make HOMM6 not lag on modern computers?
On my 2013 laptop it was working fine at 60 FPS
On my 2017 laptop it's stuck at 15 FPS, no matter the resolution/effects settings etc

Do you guys know if I need to change something specific?

Do you think emulators have spoiled us? It's amazing that we have literally 1000s of games to choose from, but because of the huge selection, i find myself being it very hard to find a game to play and stick with it until the very end. It's to the point where i just don't play at all. Does anyone else have this problem?

How do you guys like HOMM 6 ?
I think it's a shame it turned out so meh, because they had legit great stuff:
>cool graphics and animations
>decent creatures
>cool idea / mechanics / "skills" for each creature, each of them has a special effect or something like that
>faction abilities are a good idea
>leveling system is pretty decent
>dynasties that level up accross several games were a very cool idea I think, even though I guess it's controversial

what fucking sucks is how the overworld map and overworld strategy sucks ball
>removed tons of resources
>gameplay is slow as fuck
>maps are actually tiny as fuck.... if you were to port the HOMM6 maps to HOMM3 they would end up looking retardely small and simple, even the first campaign map in HOMM3 is much much bigger and just feels normal
imo that's where they dropped the ball, there is no strategy of conquest at all in this game, it's basically going from point A to B, following a path on the road
