>What sucks about these games is that the absolute best of the series, HoMM 3, is also the ugliest.
Seriously? Did you even play HoMM4?

Graphically that was by far the worst. The "towns" were technically just small random buildings placed on a barren and desolate landscape. There was absolutely no feeling of unity that gives you feeling of a city.

This is matter of taste but I think units looked ridiculous, I get it that they were going for humor and parody but why make a photo realistic white tiger and wolf and make vampires look like Dracula from 1930,demons look like armored monkies with a fork for a hand, unicrowns with ranbow manes, medusa look liek dinosaurs and so on.

HoMM3 units looked way more appealing. Here a lot of units are just naked, and generally lack polish and detail when compared to HoMM. Minotaurs, Medusas, Elves, Centaurs, Hydras, zombies, Harpies, Nagas.

Why won't Harpies use swords? Why don't Minotaurs wear armor? Why do Nagas use tiny scimtars and knives? Why are monks just a basic guy with a book? Why are elves just a basic woman in pijamas? Why are faeries naked?

Why do almost all units make DERPfaces on their icons? It's like they made everything look stupid on purpose.
