A little nitpicking: for an observer in the southern hemisphere, for example, the "desert" would be north, and the "snowy lands" would be south, so "reality" implies both options.

It referred to Europe and the central part of the land.

After the art was leaked and posted in the M&M group's public gallery, some particularly unpleasant fans also posted this gem there. Poor Ubisoft.

It's no coincidence that orcs have an affinity with demons; it's quite evident. Perhaps ghouls are raised from them. (no need to copy the description of ghouls; I know)

It's clear that all the units share the same 3D animation model (all the muscles are on the same skeleton), which is why there are no dragons – they probably don't have a proper 3D model for them yet!
Although there were griffins, but I didn't see any Cerberuses, so they used a lamassu instead of a headless rider, because creating a 3D model of a person on a horse is complicated – they're just cheapskates.

Svetlana (or Sveltana, maybe the translators are bad?)

No, it was intentionally designed to be Sveltana. They asked that question in an interview for "SI".

In Heroes 5 (referring to the English localization), there was Nikolai (Nicholas in the Russian localization) and Irina (Iris in the Russian version). Nikolai's father was named Alexei (Alex in the Russian localization). His grandfather was, as far as I remember, Oleg (became Helge). The first emperor of the Griffin dynasty was named Ivan.

Wow, it really is quite an extensive allusion. It seems to me that Americans are simply not used to hearing Russian names because they automatically perceive them as belonging to 'inhabitants of the land of elves.' But so what? We all wonderfully remember how the Russian people viewed such elaborate words as SNIKERS, JEANS, ADIDAS during the perestroika years – they were brands.

A small boat on a tree.

Good screenshot. Beautiful and intricate drawing – that's definitely a plus. In the fifth game, I also liked the semi-ruined water temple on the lake; it looked organic.

Yeah, "we all wonderfully remember." :D As well as World War II and the baptism of Rus'.

Yeah, "we all remember it perfectly." As well as World War II and the baptism of Rus'.

Well, maybe I shouldn't have spoken for everyone, but I, for example, still remember the trend of using American slang from my childhood. Then there was a wave of discontent with the trend of using words like Zemfira, Gluk'OZA, KerimOFF, but over time this style lost its relevance and the wave subsided on its own. However, even now you can still find such distortions of the language.

It's too early to say; it all depends on how it will be painted, as it's too early to judge based on the draft version.

Oh, yes, I forgot about Nikolai Andrey's nephew (who became Andreas in the Russian localization).
By the way, it would be worth showing a map of the Empire.
