Baldur's Gate vs Heroes of Might & Magic 4
Baldur's Gate
Baldur's Gate is an age-old RPG/dungeon crawler that has captivated the hearts of many. Originally released back in 1998, Baldur’s Gate is possibly the very first RPG that has paved the way to the emergence of some of the more modern titles like the Dungeon & Dragons computer game franchise. The game is played in a pretty much team-based fashion where you will get to recruit heroes to your team and lead them into dungeons and other dangerous places in the Sword Coast to fight a wide variety of monsters in hopes of getting more loot... and of course the truth behind the sinister forces that are at work fuelling the tension that is about to break into an all-out war.This enhanced edition of the game also include a nice upgrade to its graphics (but don't expect visuals like The Witcher 3 though) and over 400 tweaks to improve the game experience overall. It also contain new adventures, characters and voice acting for the characters. The game even added in multiplayer support so you can play this game with your friends online!
Baldur's Gate is possibly the "father of all modern RPGs" and if you're curious how this timeless RPG can give birth to other epic RPGs or if you're simply nostalgic, you can get the game at a modest price on Steam and on your mobile devices.
Heroes of Might & Magic 4
Heroes of Might & Magic 4 takes the game you love, and destroys the world you play it in. A prophecy fulfilled sees a devastating explosion that smashes the world, and yet portals appear to transport some of the people to safety, and here you get a blend of new and old heroes, with their own agendas and politics forging new civilizations and cities in a different and strange new place. And so, as the Reckoning has destroyed the world of Enroth you are set to discover Axeoth for yourself in one of 6 individual campaigns.There have also been serious overhauls to the game systems as well. The hex map is replaced with a much better defined and detailed square map. The skills system is better defined and now you can place your heroes in one of 40 different classes and subclasses. Best of all you can now play your heroes in the battlefield, and use more than one. These dramatic changes have made for an amazing new experience, and one that really adds something amazing to the series.
