“Heroes of Might and Magic V: Tribes of the East”

Nival solemnly assures us that "half-races will be equal! But they will differ in their application!"
What could that mean?

Apparently, the idea is that the strength of half-races will be roughly equal on average. And one or another variant of the hero will be better suited for specific tasks, such as battles against certain forces or castles. Or some will be easier to defend with, while others will be better for attacking, etc. Just like in the fourth game: mages are good, but when playing against the undead, you definitely use golems.

and the developers at Nival are, of course, men... And that's why a "serious" matriarchy doesn't appeal to them.

Or maybe it doesn't appeal to them because no one knows what a "serious" matriarchy looks like, since it hasn't existed in human history?

like, "Hey, buddy, wanna hang out? 50 bucks an hour, I have a certificate from the STD clinic."

Girls, like in the pictures, for 50 bucks... PLEASE, tell me where you saw them.

Or, for example... I imagine an improved swordsman.

But where's the sword??? Although with such little hands, a sword is definitely not needed, unless it's a toy one. Just wave it slightly and say: "Go away, you nasty thing."
