Have you played Titan Quest or other games set in ancient Greece? Compare them!
I have, but the world in that game is essentially canonical. Just as the third game differs from the world of Titan Quest, so does the fifth.

The plot is more or less forgivable (as I already said), I was focusing more on the world. You mentioned that demons also attacked in the third game.
You can forgive a primitive plot, but adding Dark Elves to please the younger audience, and generally making the Elves fit the Warcraft/thousands of other games mold is too much. This is one of the main proofs that no one really put much effort into the world. This can be related to the question below.
And where did the elf archetype in Warcraft and thousands of other games come from? Did they invent it themselves? I never worried about whether Dark Elves are a popular or not; all of fantasy is essentially popular, with elves, humans, orcs, and dwarves everywhere. The main thing is that the faction should be interesting. And the "world" is not just the external design of the factions, but the totality of their interactions with each other and the world in which they live, and the history of that world. But in general, the fifth game is already a thing of the past, and in the sixth game, who knows where the developers might go and what they will do with the Elves.
