Recollections on the Forge to AcidDragon [1][edit | hide | hide all]
I was the lead character artist/animator for Heroes 3 and 4... The Forge City was something we wanted to add to the Heroes 3: Armageddon's Blade expansion. The concept of the city was quickly scrapped when a few members of the Heroes 3 community found out about it and hated the idea. They threatened to boycott the game if our team continued working on the concept, so it was scrapped. Personally, I think it was a craven way to do business - changing the game's development process just to please a few fans with foul mouths showed the weak nature of our company. I was personally only responsible for the character/unit artwork for the Forge City, and out of about 8 characters that were designed, only 4 or 5 were actually created, and only two of those units had any animation before the faction was scrapped.
