My opinion: hero-type demons shouldn’t be scary and repulsive. More precisely, they might be, but of a different kind, not like monsters from a cheap horror movie that repel and frighten with their disgusting appearance... Look at the demons from Heroes of Might and Magic III: they have a sly smirk on their faces, there are no sadomasochistic elements like chains, spikes, and so on, and I won’t even mention the shapeless slimes. As befits demons, the representatives of this faction in the third game pose the main danger not in a physical sense; it’s clear that they can kill the SOULS of their victims. The same can be seen in the fifth game, although only the second tier deviates from this concept, perhaps also the seventh. But this is not the case in the sixth game; here we see not demons, but simply a collection of freaks with sadomasochistic tendencies...
