Information windows
And hello again!
I discovered the next feature that I lack - information windows.
In my opinion, it would be great if the game provided an extended description of various things by hovering the mouse cursor or right-clicking.
This will allow you to get more into the spirit of the game and immerse yourself in the mechanics, study not only the numbers of characteristics and resists, but also read some description of the creature / artifact.
I wish you good luck in the further development of an excellent game!

NikimoneyWe absolutely need more and better tooltips. Perhaps with some an optional setting for turning off the detailed tooltips, for any folk who wouldn't want the information on their 300th game.
I would also suggest a step further - Have an info bar of sorts, or a quick way to obtain the info (e.g. left click, which already gives the info for monsters in combat).
In HoMM3 you have it a bar at the bottom of your screen, where you can see what it is that you're hovering the mouse over.
And a step further - a wiki lookup keybind. For those who wish to learn more than the two sentences in a tooltip about the given thing, they can press the keybind (perhaps "?" or "L" for "Look up" by default) and it would open the corresponding page in the wiki. Be it a monster, an interactable object/item/structure, or even terrain or an event pop-up or something. I know it'd take a while to include some more complicated stuff, so it'd prolly have to start with just interactables and monsters, but still.
