Fluff In popular opinion: HoMaM4 is freaking awesome!

So I've recently bought HoMaM4 off of gog for $2.49. and I can honestly say I can't get enough. It's a little poor in the quality, but the game itself is a masterpiece. Don't get me wrong, it has nothing on heroes, or the classic heroes2 gold. But this game gets way to much hate from everyone for being as awesome as it is.

Please I wanna hear everyone else's opinions on this. This game is underrated.

Magic system could be exploited to no end. I haven't played in years, but I remember doing silly things with quicksand and the spell that moved stacks a few spaces in whatever direction you choose. I'd win battles I have no business winning early in the game (though that could be said of HOMM3 as well using strategic exploits the AI could never pull off). And if I'm remembering correctly, IV was the first to allow saving in the middle of combat.
