Dark Messiah of Might and Magic - any worthy mods?

[octavius]

Doesn't look like there is much community made content for this game, but thought I'd ask just in case there is something worth adding.

Thanks for answer that confirms my suspicion.
And sorry for posting in wrong forum. Thought it had enough RPG elements to qualify.

I HEARD UNINSTALL.EXE IS GOOD

LOLOLOLOLOL ROFL XD

However, make sure to get the latest patch and play in the hardest difficulty, it really is a whole different (and much better) experience. They even nerfed the kick.

Is this game at the very least fun? I saw a few clips on youtube, it seems mindless but potentially enjoyable. Can anyone comment who's played it?

 

[Andyman Messiah]

It's playable.

Also don't bother with any mods. There's enough cleavage and upskirts to satisfy the nexus modders for an hour.

it is VERY enjoyable!
...as dumb as it sounds
good for what it is does aplly here!!
it has rope arrows too

have played it as a warrior and assassin..never touched magic.
but the fighting is a lot of fun!

...so there really are mods for this game?

I hear Ubisoft pulled the SDK before it was finished, so you can thank them for that.

They even nerfed the kick.

Did they? I might want to replay the game.
How exactly was it nerfed?

Uses up more fatigue per kick, you've got a maximum of about three before you're completely winded. It also doesn't launch enemies anywhere near as far unless they're weak, taken by surprise or stunned.
Basically, it's what it should have been from the start.

Sounds good.
The "one kick one kill" method of dispatching enemies was awful.

Not a bad game.
I don't understand what it has to do with Might and Magic, though. It has nothing at all in common with M&M or HOMM. Reminds me a lot more of the Thief games, but much more linear and more combat oriented and more character building.
Awful voice acting.

The story is a direct continuation of HoMM5 Tribes of the East (even though it was released before TotE...), so it's got more to do with Might and Magic than say Crusaders ever did. But gameplay wise yeah it's got very little to do with either... but it was clearly a spinoff, so that's OK. And it's not a bad game as a spinoff.

Really? I thought the story is before HoMM5, because the evil ending is canonical and HoMM5 the Evil Dude is out raging.

Spoiler

The protagonist of Dark Messiah is the demon child that the queen gives birth to at some point between HOMM5 OC and HoF. There was stuff about him being the one who will either free the demons for good or reseal their prison, which are the two DM endings. Also, TotE shows the rise of that necromancer dude to power, and then he dies at the end of DM.
