Different graphics/art styles?

[Uzi'shan]

Is there a slight chance that post release there could be, something like a DLC that will use an alternate style/art more similar to HoMM 1,2,3 style? or only hope there is a modder to do that?

Edit: to make things clear. I am not against pixel art.... but in this game it is very tiring, at least for my eyes.

You cna maybe look in the realm of Reshading. There are multiple ways to make the image less tiring. I made a reshade myself that makes it easier to look at.

The art style blows the entire HoMM to smithereens tbh.. The graphics are superb. Why downgrade? Everything looks clearly readable.

Hopefully some Modder...but would expect that to be a pretty huge project so no time soon at least

you must remember HoMM differently from how it is... picking a more pixelated and tiring to the eyes art style doesn't blow the entire HoMM series to smithereens(especially not the first 3). I am trying my best to like this humble bundle game... but from missed opportunity of creating strong identity factions to a style that I can't play without ending up chugging 200mg of ibuprofen after 30min... well... it keeps being a nay for me

Let's say its not on the agenda right now, and there is no easy fix for it really. As some suggested there is reshading options but not anything that simply makes it another style in a easy way.

Besides, we kinda like our style, although we totally respect that opinions vary.

Well said, im of the same opinion. Heroes 3 looked much better and im sure this would have had much more sales if it looked decently (its a very badly detailed pixel art)

I disagree, i never liked the half 3d half pixels of HOMM3.
This style is much more endearing to me.

I may hope sales are a direct result of gameplay, not of the looks.
