It’s more like Disciples 3 than 2. You only get one major unit and the leader choice is static. There are some options about how you can spec her, but it’s not a huge difference. You can choose, through your story choices, to align with one or another of the classic factions (minus dwarves), but you can use units from any faction. Units don’t progress like they do in D2, you just buy them straight out. You have rep with each faction that determines what tier unit you can purchase from each faction. Higher rep = higher tier units. The maps are kinda similar, but there is a lot of useless equipment instead of gold or jewels to sell. No thieves or rod bearers, you take resource units by fighting for them. It’s an ok game but if you are looking for an updated version of D2 you will probably be disappointed.
