Is this game related to the older strategy games?

[ximslammin]

or something entirely different?

[Elveone]

It is in the same world and there are turn-based battles but it is a different genre with a lot of different mechanics and the story is not a direct continuation of the old games.

[sandman25dcsss]

Treat it as entirely different game to avoid unnecessary disappointments.

[Ozu]

It's not a Strategy its just RPG

[Phantus]

They removed unit evolution and distinct faction campaigns so it's more of your run of the mill turn based game.

In this game, the only thing from Disciples we know - is the word "Disciples" itself

[Война]

Ok, I have enough HOMM games to buy the same with the different name. Will wait 75% discount in this case.
"Disciples" without the units' evolution isn't "Disciples".

Come to think of it the word itself doesn't even apply anymore. This isn't about the disciples of some god, the main character is divine and perfect.

You can see it as King's Bounty clone.

Except you cannot because you cannot build in king's bounty and you don't have companion characters and reputation systems and the units in King's Bounty are stacks of units whereas the units in Disciples: Liberation are individual units.

If someone made a decent King's Bounty clone, what an amazing day that would be...

But it's still a King's Bounty clone.

Okay, again we have a problem with your poor vocabulary. A "clone"suggest something that is identical. This is not.

You don't know what "clone" is.
There are clones (in real world) that don't look the same.

And regarding the game itself. Yes. It's a King's Bounty clone no matter how hard you try to skew perspective.

As we are not talking genetics a "clone" means a "duplicate" meaning that everything is identical. You should really improve your vocabulary.

THIS.
Kalypso just use known name. Maybe for money from old-fans (but they at least try to do game looks like similar to Disciples, they didnt try to fool us whit that). Or just for script writers. At least they have name for that fictional world.

This game do not be related to D3 and ofc not related to D1-2. Not a f*ng 1%. Not by gameplay, not by plot.

There is still very little chance that this game been good at some points. Maybe like Discples 3 (btw original Renaissance is better than Reincarnation) - only for soundtrack. Character design already messed. Units design already messed. landmarks - huge mess. Plot? Common, it cannot be good after they just use Disciples\Nevendaar names.


For Discipels 3. I try to play that games (each version) as non-Disciples. Still it very low-budget trash.
And i guess Disciples 4 be same, even as non-Disciples - low-budget trash. For consoles players.

Right back at you, pal.

[flatchet]

Can't you just accept that Disciples franchise is not mechanics or units evolution. It's Nevendaar in its glory and misery. Even numeric parts of franchises can have own different approach and we have spin-off here. Also Disciples 2 combat system has zero depth. Want old system? Play old games. Want update over old system? There is Legends of Eisenwald combat system. Perfect mix of usual TBS like in HoMM and Disciples "range" system.
