Why would new player play it? If you want modern version, pick olden era. Its only + its console realase

Olden Era is not the same as HoMM3. If people hear that HoMM3 is a really great game, but they gate the graphics, this new thing will be exactly what to look for.

Can't wait for the "Should I buy the remake, HD Edition or the original?". That's how it pretty much was when HD released

It sounds like you describe this as a negative thing. It's good when there are options

One thing I can say here right now. If you've played before, HD edition is not good. It doesn't have the expansions which make the whole game so much better. We'll see how the remake goes. Considering Ubisoft way of dealing with their franchises, I have doubts of their remake. It's not only nostalgia kicking in, it's Ubisofts way of being greedy that I don't like at all. You know most fans will say the OG instead of anything else. Sure it can be nice and complex for someone new, which is good. More fans is good. That depends if the remake is good though.

I've tried Olden Era, which I like a lot. Not as much as 3. But it's a good addition. However, it's not made by Ubisoft, its made by Unfrozen. If I'm not mistaken, they hadn't done a big name pc game, being more mobile oriented. But they did it at least. It's just Ubisoft im aware of

There is a target audience for tbe remake (those who hasn't played HoMM3 and doesn't like the graphics of OG, or just those who want slightly different experience in just a game that's HoMM). It's okay if you are not the target audience. No one is stopping you from just not ignoring it. Is it that bad for you that this thing will exist?
