About current replay ability

[DriNN ツ]

Hey, everyone!
I've been dating this game since the early access release but I see many people reviews with few hours and I just can't understand.
I know the campaign is currently small, but I wanted to know about the skirmish. Is it fun? Does it offers good replay ability?

Thanks in advance!

Skirmish vs AI right now doesn't have fun replayability, but skirmish vs humans could be fun. The issue is the skirmish AI is currently pretty dumb, and enemies don't grow in strength so if you can make it to like turn 10 then the rest of the game is just mopping up the enemy one location at a time. I hope they improve the AI, I know they said they are working on additional difficulties in the roadmap.

I've absolutely seen AI enemies with massive armies (18 in size)

To OP: Between campaign and AI skirmishes, easily 20+ hours. If you're playing multiplayer, a lot more.

Interesting, I beat a large map with the max number of AIs and the strongest AI army I saw was a 5 army. I got to turn 52 I believe.

It's not very fun vs AI. HOMM III is still the one to beat for difficulty and AI performance/balance. It's never been bested, and this game doesn't come close.

Hi everyone - I see these posts have been a while - sorry for the late answer.
We're always improving the balancing, and there's definitely some stuff we need to fix for the AI (currently, the AI does not prioritize getting back into their own locations and recruiting units - for example. We're working on it!)
We're working hard to make sure Skirmish vs AI is fun too! Feel free to join our Discord to help us improve it even more!
In regard to multiplayer, it's heavily depending on your friends, I'd say. We've been having fun on the Multiplayer Streams we do every Thursday on Twitch, if you're interested in seeing how these work - feel free to check out our Twitch or Youtube channel!
