- Comparison of creatures from Heroes 5 with creatures in Heroes 3.

You know...
Heroes 3 is closer to a fairy tale.
Heroes 5 is a harsh fantasy...

That's true... And I noticed something else...
The developers of Heroes 5 were probably big Tolkien fans or just fantasy enthusiasts, which is why they divided everyone so clearly. Elves with elves, dark creatures with dark creatures (a lot of attention is given to the long-eared ones), and they even managed to split one single creature (a dwarf) into 7 (!!!) pieces and create a whole new race. :eek:
I'm against such a rigid division; it's a cheap trick. In Heroes 3, elves and dwarves somehow managed to coexist, and it was normal, even original, if you think about it, what a diverse group of people they are.
That is, the fact that elves are with elves, and dwarves are with dwarves is, of course, good, logical, and correct from the point of view of fantasy basics, but is it interesting? original?
It's easiest to take something from elsewhere and put it into the game, but not everyone can come up with some unusual moves.
