The demons seem less impressive than in the concept art.

In general, I think all the units are overloaded with small details. It looks good on the concept art, but on the global map and in the battle arena, where the units are small themselves, all these details will blend into something shapeless. However, we'll see how it turns out.

That's not quite the word, but what's even funnier is that by posting these units, Ubisoft assures us that they are indeed all different and that any complaints about them are completely unfounded.

There was some concern those guys looked too similar. Do you still think it’s the case?

Yes, they don't look alike at all:D.

Well, if you look closely, the units are indeed not very similar:rolleyes:, and they also resemble the heroes from X-Men: Cyclops (maniac), Wolverine (ghoul), and Sabretooth (tormentor), but that's just nonsense...

Why is that?
If in Heroes 5, you could draw a parallel: zombie-peasant, then with the same demons, you can't recall a unit whose model was similar to a creature from the same castle. Everyone had unique models; here, however... the difference is only in the position and outgrowths; the body is the same...

Ubisoft will definitely ruin the game.

Yeah, instead of one demon-like creature for Inferno, they could have made an Ifrit.

If anyone plays such games, it's only to admire the graphics. The developers, with their innovations, are personally killing my interest in the series. What about the fact that they only made three types of resources? It's absurd. Maybe they want to attract more young people who don't think with their brains now, but just focus on APM? I agree that it's pointless to complain, but it would be even more stupid to pretend that you admire the screenshots, units, etc., when in reality you feel disgusted.

And what should be on these screenshots? The same units as in the fifth game, only on a new engine? Such games are useless to anyone; a new part is a new part, and there should be changes and innovations. Ubisoft, by the way, justified the reduction of resources, but how reasonable their justification is can only be checked after the release. And no one is forcing anyone to buy the sixth game, and it doesn't take away the old, good third or fifth game. I don't understand this rejection of the sixth game.

Maybe the lead designer just had nightmares about Uncle Freddy as a child, and now he's channeling that fear into the game? :)

Yeah, instead of one ghoul-like creature for Inferno, they could have added an Ifrit.

They could have, but would it fit into this lineup? I think the answer is obvious, although...

Ubisoft will still ruin the game.

We'll see and then we'll judge.

the main designer just dreams about Uncle Freddy at night.

It seems it's not just in his childhood, it's still happening now...

You're wrong, they are actually quite needed. The units could have been made in a more or less classic style, let's say, partially taken from the fifth game, partially from the third. Just make them more beautiful, add more features. There's no need to fantasize too much. And everyone would be happy. But when they turned orcs into Papuans, and necromancers into some kind of Aztecs, it's unclear why they made such a change.
P.S. At least the shamans look like orcs, which is more familiar.
