I Record Every Game I Play. So I Built Grifone.

As I already showed in another post, the one where I build an automatic curation system for my Steam library, I like playing games, mostly on Valve’s platform. Since I stopped playing Diablo III somewhere around the end of 2018, my relationship with games has been that of someone who likes having a catalog to reach for at any moment. Add to that the fact that I’m past 30, and you get a problem I’ve been trying to solve for years: forgetting what I actually played.

Heroes of Might and Magic III is one of those games I keep going back to. It is from 1999, it is turn-based, the graphics are hand-drawn 2D, and it is still better than most strategy games released since. Twenty-seven years later nobody has replaced it, and honestly, I have stopped waiting for anyone to try.

The GOG version, Heroes of Might and Magic III: Complete, bundles the base game with both expansions and is supposed to be the easy way to play it today. On Windows, it mostly is. On Linux, running through Heroic Games Launcher with GE-Proton, it very much was not.
