Might and Magic is a series of role-playing video games from New World Computing, which in 1996 became a subsidiary of The 3DO Company. The original Might and Magic series ended with the closure of the 3DO Company. The rights to the Might and Magic name were purchased for US$1.3 million by Ubisoft,(1) who 'rebooted' the franchise with a new series with no apparent connection to the previous continuity, starting with the games Heroes of Might and Magic V and Dark Messiah of Might and Magic.

Heroes Of Might And Magic 6 Wiki

Gameplay(edit)

The majority of the gameplay takes place in a medieval fantasy setting, while later sections of the games are often based on science fiction tropes, the transition often serving as a plot twist. The player controls a party of player characters, which can consist of members of various character classes. The game world is presented to the player in first person perspective. In the earlier games the interface is very similar to that of Bard's Tale, but from Might and Magic VI: The Mandate of Heaven onward, the interface features a three-dimensional environment. Combat is turn-based, though the later games allowed the player to choose to conduct combat in real time.

The game worlds in all of the Might and Magic games are quite large, and a player can expect each game to provide several dozen hours of gameplay. It is usually quite combat-intensive and often involves large groups of enemy creatures. Monsters and situations encountered throughout the series tend to be well-known fantasy staples such as giant rats, werewolf curses, dragon flights and zombie hordes, rather than original creations. Isles of Terra and the Xeen games featured a more distinct environment, blending fantasy and science fiction elements in a unique way.

The Might and Magic games have some replay value as the player can choose their party composition, develop different skills, choose sides, do quests in a different order, hunt for hidden secrets and easter eggs, and/or change difficulty level.

Plot(edit)

Although most of the gameplay reflects a distinctly fantasy genre, the overarching plot of the first nine games has something of a science fiction background. The series is set in a fictional galaxy as part of an alternative universe, where planets are overseen by a powerful race of space travelers known as Ancients. In each of the games, a party of characters fights monsters and completes quests on one of these planets, until they eventually become involved in the affairs of the Ancients. Might and Magic could as such be considered an example of science fantasy.

The producer of the series was Jon Van Caneghem.(2) Van Caneghem has stated in interview(3) that the Might and Magic setting is inspired by his love for both science fiction and fantasy. He cites The Twilight Zone and the Star Trek episode For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky as having inspired Might and Magic lore.

The first five games in the series concern the renegade guardian of the planet Terra, named Sheltem, who becomes irrevocably corrupted, developing a penchant for throwing planets into their suns. Sheltem establishes himself on a series of flat worlds known as nacelles (which are implied to be giant spaceships) and Corak, a second guardian and creation of the Ancients, with the assistance of the player characters, pursues him across the Void. Eventually both Corak and Sheltem are destroyed in a climactic battle on the nacelle of Xeen.

The sixth, seventh and eighth games take place on Enroth, a single planet partially ruled by the Ironfist dynasty, and chronicle the events and aftermath of an invasion by the Kreegan (colloquially referred to as Devils), the demonlike arch-enemies of the Ancients. It is also revealed that the destruction wrought by the Ancients' wars with the Kreegan is the reason why the worlds of Might & Magic exist as medieval fantasy settings despite once being seeded with futuristic technology – the worlds have been 'cut off' from the Ancients and descended into barbarism. The first through third games in the Heroes of Might and Magic series traces the fortunes of the Ironfists in more detail. None of the science fiction elements appear in the Heroes series besides the appearance of Kreegan characters in Heroes of Might and Magic III and IV.

The Ubisoft release Might & Magic X: Legacy departs from this continuity and is set in the world of Ashan.(4) Ashan is a high fantasy setting with no science fiction elements in its lore.(5)Flv player for mac os.

Reception(edit)

Might and Magic is considered one of the defining examples of early role-playing video games, along with The Bard's Tale, Ultima and Wizardry series.(6) By March 1994, combined sales of the Might and Magic series totaled 1 million units.(7) The number rose to 2.5 million sales by November 1996.(8) and 4 million by March 1999.(9)

BEHOLD! The Modern Identity: Endnotes for us anal retentive readers.

(1)  T.S. Eliot’s high modernist poem The Wasteland represents the modern world as a “scene of ruin.” (1921-1922) He used the imagery found in the crucifixion of Christ and a ruined church building after WWI, relating them to the then decay of Eastern Europe following the war. He posits an end to the meaning of the Christian consciousness, which at one time, was firmly grasped by the Church’s authority. That authority became “fragments” that were “shored against” what Eliot’s depicted as the “ruins” left behind after the “Thunder” of war’s past (Eliot Line 431).

(2)  Pablo Picasso’s 1937 Painting of Guernica accurately depicts the fragmentation of the physical and abstract of the modern world. He illustrated the Spanish Civil War test bombing’s killing of Guernica’s peoples, creating a modern world that was broken apart. It was a world losing its grasp on previously believed tenets and morals. This applied to the physical devastation found in the Guernica bomb testing grounds. It also depicted the doing away with traditional means of coherent artistry to get across the message of the atrocity. 

(3)  Iain McGilchrist’s The Master and His Emissary: The Divided Brain and the Making of the Modern World presents the argument that the modern and post-modern world indeed has become fragmented, in that it has become more left hemisphere oriented. The Left-Hemisphere is found to fragment and group stimuli. The right hemisphere, on the contrary, contra-laterally is more concerned with the interconnectedness of the world it exists in. It also is the determiner of meaning. He posits that within the 6th and 15th/16th century, there was a balance between these two hemispheres. However in the modern and post-modern world, there is a neurological disposition toward the technical, governmental control of things: a left-hemisphere operation that has negatively affected humanity’s psychology and events over the past century.

(4) McGilchrist denotes that the left and right hemisphere’s of the brain give us two versions of the world. He notes that the Right Hemisphere gives an embodiment of and for the world (I am my body), whereas the left is aware of the world objectively in detachable parts (I have a body). Another way of seeing this: the right says “I am my self” and the left says “I am a self.” This juxtaposition between right and left qualifies the difference between personhood (embodiment) and consciousness (awareness). He notes on how language is exemplary of this facet: “Some languages, such as German, see the body in [two] senses as so distinct, they have two words for them.” He notes how perspectives in language shape the world: “Leib for the first, körper for the second. Incidentally, the German word for körper, related to the English ‘corpse,’ came into the language through medicine and theology (the body there being the element left when the soul departed); The word Leib, related to Leben/lebendig (English, Live/alive) referred to the bodies that survived the battle -- those who were not Körper” (McGilchrist 67).

(5)  This story, in its fragmentation, is much to the effect of two films: Crash (2004) and The Lives of Others (2006). Both films illustrate the use of several or many characters’ decisions and/or actions intertwining, leading up to some climatic destiny. Typically, like Mitchell’s text, the narrative paradigms of this post-modern approach all make a commentary to some facet of modern times. For Crash it was the presence of racial tension still found within today’s modern society. For Lives, it was a remembrance of the past tyrannical governments of Germany, as well as a warning to countries who make similar legislations that directly effect the lives of the people (e.g. How the U.S.’s Patriot Act is to the GDR’s Stasi and their unethical surveillance methods). Typically, these films, like both books, are published at a time when these issues are relevant to modern society: a call to be conscious of the identity we have and continue to create.

(7)  The Norton Anthology of American Literature states “At the heart of high modernist aesthetic lay conviction that the previously sustaining structure of human life, whether social, political, religious, or artistic, had been destroyed or shown up as falsehoods or, at best, arbitrary and fragile human constructions. Order, sequence, and unity in works of art might well express human desires for coherence rather than reliable institutions of reality” (Loeffelholz 712).

(8)  “On March 20, 1995, members of the Aum Shinrikyo cult entered the Tokyo subway system and released sarin, a deadly nerve agent. The subway attack was the most deadly assault in an ongoing campaign of terror waged by this mysterious cult. Four years later, with Aum Shinrikyo attempting to rebuild itself, many in Japan and around the world are asking whether the "Supreme Truth Sect" poses a current or future threat. Answering this question may further our understanding, not only of the Aum but also of other extremist and terrorist groups” (Olson 1999).

(9)  John J. Pinel states that “[Schizophrenic] symptoms are complex and diverse; they overlap greatly with those of other psychiatric disorders, and they frequently change during the progression of the disorder. As a result, there have been many attempts to break schizophrenia down to several disorders, but none of these attempts proved successful…[Including]: Bizarre delusions, Inappropriate effect, (failure to appropriately react with a level of emotionality to positive and negative events (Keltner, Kring, and Banana. 1999; Kring. 1999), Hallucinations, Incoherent thought, Odd Behavior (catatonia, lack of personal hygiene, talking in rhymes, avoiding social reaction, echolalia) (Pinel 2007)

(10)  Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol depicts the traditional narrative, however covering the Victorian sense of didactic literature. It is before the modern period, however Mitchell twists the tradition. Carol’s story teaches the reader or institution to look out for the smaller, less fortunate individual by the end of the narative. Mitchell uses his teacher to guide the reader through the narrative, showing the intertextuality in Mitchell’s repertoire. 

(11)  In Dean R. Hoge’s “Development of Religious Thinking in Adolescence: A Test of Goldman’s Theories,” Hoge comments on the psychology of the religious individual and how it affects higher cognitive functions: “Religious thinking cannot advance beyond overall cognitive capacity in general; on the contrary, it often lags behind overall capacity in making the transition from concrete to abstract operations” (Hoge 139). Quasar’s psychology is disturbing: dead set on hallucinations and more basic cognitive functions that only flourish in a paranoid, delusional state. His religiosity is the only thing he responds positively to, leaving out his own means of abstract thought, lest it be at the behest of “His Serendipity’s” teaching. 

(12)  Thomas Robbins’ “Constructing Cultist “Mind Control” denotes the “coercive (or even “hypnotic”) processes which paralyze free will and enslave the devotee” (Robbins 244). He notes how they gain their control over impressionable minds like Quasar’s: “Any social process can be evaluated from two perspectives: an empathic internal or actors’ phenomenological perspective or an external critical observer’s perspective. As we have seen, evocations of sin and guilt, repetitive chanting and obsessive prayer are interpreted as coercive processes which destroy free will, although the application of an alternative perspective would yield different interpretations” (Robbins 244). 

(13)  The Norton Anthology of American Literature quotes “Even though African Americans faced racism, segregation, and racial violence in the North, a black American presence soon became powerfully visible in American life. Harlem, a section of New York City, attained an almost wholly black population of over 150, 000 by the mid 1920s; from this “city within a city,” African Americans wrote, performed, composed, and painted. Here as well they founded two major journals of opinion and culture, The Crisis (in 1910) and Opportunity (in 1923). This work influenced writers, painters, musicians of other ethnicities, and became collectively know as the Harlem Renaissance” (Loeffelholz 708). Here, Mitchell takes that “city within a city” mentality and directly applies it to the identity of Satoru. This is an example Mitchell applying intertextuality to his story, commenting on one of the most important reactions of the changing modern era; a time where there was a “music of meaning:” a meaning that is apparent, but not as concrete as traditional thinkers thought. A few good examples of this idea are the themes he brought to Satoru’s narrative focus: love, city life, music, art, life’s improvisational elements, why things happen, etc. These themes are found all throughout the ‘music’ of the book, not easily assessed, however not to be thrown out. Without these themes riding on the intertextuality within the narrative, readers would arguably be as disconnected as Quasar. 

(14)  Thomas Robbins’ ““Constructing Cultist “Mind Control” speaks on the collective mind that Donald took part of, depicting that collective mentality is not limited to cults: “The concept of “coercive persuasion” has, in fact, been used in some significant research. A respected model of c.p. is one developed by Edgar Stein and his colleagues (1961). Stein argues that if the notion of the coercive persuasion is to achieve objectivity, it must be seen as transpiring in a wide range of -- often culturally valued --contexts, e.g. Conventional religious orders, fraternities, mental hospitals, the Army. Coercive persuasion is generally stigmatized only when its goal is detested, e.g. producing communists or Moonies” (Robbins 247). 

(15)  Daniel G. Amen M.D.’s The Brain in Love denotes what psychology takes place when a significant other leaves another: “When we love someone, they come to live in our emotional or limbic centers of our brains. He or she actually occupies nerve-cell pathways and physically lives in the neurons and the synapses of the brain. When we lose someone, either through death, divorce, moves, or breakups, our brain starts to get confused. Since that person lives in the neuronal connections, we expect to see her, hear her, feel her, and touch her. When we cannot hold her or talk to her as we usually do, the brain centers where she lives become inflamed looking for her. Overactivity of the limbic brain has been associated with depression and low serotonin levels, which is why we have trouble sleeping, feel obsessed, lose our appetites, want to isolate ourselves, and lose the joy we have about life” (Amen 68). In terms of Samson’s fragmentation of identity, here it is clear that his reaction to this new sense of “absence” is due to a brain that remembers Anna, even though his consciousness does not. 

(16)  Krauss discusses marital disruption through Samson and Anna’s relationship in Man Walks...She uses the state of the marital union in the 2000s to push her story elements, but shows an accuracy of marital union in modern times. Alice M. Hines’ “Divorce Related Transitions, Adolescent Development, and the Roles of the Parent-Child Relationship: A review of the Literature” describes the state of divorce in modern/post-modern USA: “Although divorce rates fluctuate from year to year, statistics continue to indicate that nearly half of all recent marriages eventually will end in divorce (Center of Disease Control [CDC], 1995). Because all people who separate do not always file for divorce, a more accurate figure representing for marital disruption may be close to 64% (Castro Martin & Bumpass, 1989).” 

(17)  In Michiko N. Wilson’s “Oe’s Obsessive Metaphor, Mori, the Idiot Son: Toward the Imagination of Satire, Regeneration, and Grotesque Realism,” Wilson notes on Modernist author Kenzaburo Oe’s intertextual modes to denote the relationship between Oe and his son who suffers from Autism. She states that Oe uses Bakhtin’s tenets on ambivalence in modern fiction: “The other indispensable trait is ambivalence. For in this image we find both poles of transformation, the old and the new, the dying and the procreating, the beginning and the end of the metamorphosis." He directly correlates and connects this relationship to his characters in his book of short stories, Teach Us to Outgrow Ourselves, as well as his previous work. Wilson also touches on Oe’s use of fantastic ambiguity to depict the modern world of Japan: an affliction set upon Japan’s Post-War youth. This ambivalent literary technique is posited through Oe’s use of Satire, urging readers to laugh, and yet, note the realist’s perspective his texts denote.
