Might and Magic 3 brought a lot of changes to the series formula. First off, it 3 is distinctly more narrative focused than the earlier games; it opens with a fully voiced sequence where your party is taunted by a mysterious figure, Sheltem, the barely-fleshed-out villain of the first two games, who is still knocking around. Although it's still possible to create new characters, the game is also the first in the series to start the player off with a pre-generated party, lead by the noble Paladin Sir Caneghem (named after the head designer of the game). This is also the first game in the series outside of the Macintosh versions of the games to support playing using a mouse.
