Yeah, the creators really went overboard with the gargoyles' appearance. :smile04:

I personally like the gargoyles, and that’s that. They look much cooler than in Heroes of Might and Magic III. Moreover, their quirky appearance fits perfectly with their small damage output, while the scary, terrifying, and clawed gargoyles from the Fortress simply disappoint with their weakness.

Ah, they really gave the mages some overly fantastical outfits – they should have done something like the psychic elementals from the third game; that would have been more appropriate.

And the genies were also better in the third game, both in terms of appearance and their heroes.

But the worst is the gargoyle – how could they make a fierce warrior look like a stool?

As for me, the mages have pretty decent attire. Not to mention that heroes are, after all, a fairy tale :) But the gargoyle-stools/nightstands – that's a very stereotypical opinion. People read forums and start writing the same thing... Not everyone, but some do. I have nothing to add to what Loken said. The appearance corresponds to the function, let's just say. Guys, let's express our own opinions, not just copy what others say. Probably, the most frequently used words in this topic are "stool" and "nightstand," but in my opinion, gargoyles don't look like stools at all; where are its four legs? Instead, they look like lively stone/obsidian sculptures. And this shocks me:

The developers just made fun of the gargoyles!

Yeah. The creators made fun of the gargoyles' appearance.
Isn't it audacity to write the same thing? And even a second time in the topic with exactly the same opinion...
O God of Earth and Altar,
Bow down and hear our cry,
Our earthly rulers falter,
Our people drift and die,
The walls of gold entomb us,
The swords of scorn divide,
Take not thy thunder from us,
Take away our pride.

I think many have seen gargoyles on the roofs of cathedrals and similar places. They look quite good as gargoyles. Long legs with claws, horns, large fangs, bat-like wings, and a tail. That's how they should have been made, not like what they did (I won't repeat it).
Something like this is how they should look. It's a pity that they can no longer be changed in the game.

so what? Heroes is a fairy tale, and as you know, fairy tales don't claim to be accurate.

I don't see any further point in this topic. Therefore, it will be closed. You can discuss creatures in this topic.
