It's not up to us. You're right, but the developers make games for us, not for themselves. Unfortunately, I can't implement the option you suggested right now, despite my strong desire to do so. The "greenhouse conditions" were more noticeable in the latest installment than in the others. It seemed easier to me compared to the previous ones; only the last orc mission stood out.
That is, I want to say that different players get stuck in different places, and the same expansions/missions may seem the most difficult to one player and extremely easy to another. This probably depends on who uses what tactics, who is more used to playing as which race, who is used to what map size, and so on.
As for the fact that developers make games for us primarily, well, you can't please everyone anyway. If they had made 8 full campaigns for each race in the expansion, they would have received criticism from orc fans, who would point out that in total, Heroes 5 has at least 2 campaigns for each race, but only one for the orcs. And if they had made 9 campaigns, with 2 for the orcs, the public would have complained that there were 2 campaigns for one race in one expansion... and so on.
Therefore, they did what they thought was right, and in my opinion, they were right.
Нервы успокаивая мне...
И твоя раскосая улыбка
В бархатном купается вине...
