What do you think is scarier? Horrible demons or foul-smelling undead?
Indistinct, unknown creatures from the depths of hell, or armies of living corpses?
In my opinion, it's the undead, because it's more likely that corpses will crawl out of graves than a portal to hell will open. What's your opinion?
P.S. The topic isn't directly related to the game... or maybe just a little.

The very fact that any of this could happen in real life… It would mean that it hasn’t truly let go yet…

In my opinion, this is undead because it's more likely that corpses will crawl out of the graves than a portal to hell will open.
Oh, that's very likely...)))

I don't know, neither of those scares me much.
But I would be happy with either =^^=

undead are disgusting – decaying, rotting bodies, infested with carrion eaters,
demons – they love Latin, are brutal, and tear their enemies to pieces.
I think, demons.

Nah, I wouldn't be thrilled about undead. But demons, now that's something, an apocalypse, that's cool!

undead are just bones and rotten flesh, obsessed with one thing – to breed an army and something else…
and demons are cunning creatures (although not always), and so on… it would take too long to write…

in general, there is some respect for demons… maybe as a strong and intelligent enemy… (and I believe that there are also good guys among them)
and undead… it’s just a Zerg that only evokes negative emotions… they just need to be destroyed.

P.S. although… maybe there are a couple of interesting things about the undead (immortality… or some reasons for turning into a lich, etc.)…
but in terms of danger, demons still lead…

After the second Discs (Lock will understand), I have a very positive attitude towards demons (everyone remembers how I posted a picture with an archon in the chat and shouted: Nyaka!!! Cutie!!! Only Luke can compare to him!!!). They often have a beautiful physique, interesting forms, and demonic charm.
I'm not afraid of the undead. Zombies disgust me, vampires are cute (I got it from Freya), liches and skeletons are a pile of bones, but not without charm.
Neither demons nor the undead are ever purely negative for me. And only dragons are purely positive for me, and even then with exceptions. I don't see anything terrible in either of them. But what really scares me is heights, arguments, and the Unified State Exam.

Of course, the undead are terrifying. They only existed in the most terrible nightmares: ghosts, vampires, skeletons :smile24:. Even in ancient times, people were very afraid of encountering the undead. Do bandits fear the devil when they kill their victims? No, they fear the spirits of the people they killed. They don't think about ending up in hell; they think about how to avoid encountering the ghost of the person they killed. And finally, everyone fears death. Everyone wants to live. And that's why people imagined death as a skeleton with a scythe, not as a demon with cards in its hands, smoking a cigarette. Because a skeleton is scarier.

By the way, it's not a given that the undead are stupid and pointless; what about Aranthir, for example? Kel'Thuzad, the Lich King, and others... Arthas, too...
And I doubt that every senior demon or imp is a paragon of cunning, terrifying power, and wisdom.

Artes is dull and pointless. Until he merges with Ner'zhul and becomes the Lich King.

WisTrit, I was talking about imps or lesser demons, right? And also, check what's in parentheses. When I say "demons," I don't mean everyone who's somehow connected to hell, summoned from who-knows-where, and has horns... Basically, I'm thinking of games like *Disciples* and other games, maybe books and movies, where demons are also tempters, warriors, and wise ones. It's not just the devil who's super-powerful and knows everything. In principle, you could also compare them to heroes from *Heroes of Might and Magic* (while reading their biographies!), but not to units (especially level 2 units in *Heroes 5*). It's just... :[br][/br]And in the end, there's a place where they're born, right? Undead are usually artificial creations.

I think many people are simply confused. In Ancient Greece, a demon was a divine being, simply of no particular rank. You can read more about this in Wikipedia.

WisTrit, was I talking about imps or demons?
Okay ;)
But the units are still demons too...

Arthas, as undead, isn't stupid and pointless, because he was actually striving to become King.

And in Disciples, it seems that demons were also originally on another plane of existence, and only a small group of them were on Earth. And they were trying to bring Bezresen out into this world...
And they are still trying...

Artes as an undead is merely a puppet of Ner'zhul, nothing more. He wasn't pursuing his own goals; Ner'zhul was leading him, using him as a tool to break free. Artes ceased to be just a tool only when he merged with Ner'zhul.
