NT_Jedi: Would you also care to compare the manpower and financial resources available to Illwinter vs. New World Computing/3DO? That's required for your point about Heroes 3 to have any actual meaning. We're talking orders of magnitude differences here, and the limitations imposed by the already existing engine architecture. Which means that you have to mesh any new additions to that and see that it doesn't break anything. It's not simply coding something from scratch to your specifications.
