Ghoul is a fitting name.

What's wrong with it? It fits the Russian atmosphere quite well. I'm for it.
Ghouls are creatures from Arabic mythology, not Russian. I'm against such a "geographical" localization. There are already enough problems with creatures like dreamwalkers; it's hard to find a translation that doesn't sound awkward.

dreamwalker - a sleepwalker. Is that okay?

Without going into details, the ghoul quite well embodies the essence of the Dungeon faction. And what does Russian mythology have to do with it?

In everyday conversation, it's fine, but as a creature in the game, it doesn't quite fit, especially since the meaning of the Russian word "sleepwalker" doesn't really suit Orcish shamans.

The fact is that "ghoul" is the original name of the creature, so what does Russian mythology and its ghouls have to do with it?

And what do Vampires have to do with Russian mythology?

I hope they don't mess up the voice acting...
I suspect they'll open another thread and say: "Alright, guys, send us your voice recordings, and we'll take a look and add them to the game!"
I wanted to go through the names, but then I gave up and decided that it wouldn't be useful to anyone anyway.

The fact is that it's a typically Russian name, while in Europe they are called vampires.

+1. It would be better if they asked us which models we think should be made, and so on. But as it is, this is

How can they decide which models to make if they only ask on a closed forum (judging by the fact that the seraphim's swords are ultimately just regular swords and not multicolored, the developers are listening), and the fact that the localizers engaged in such a unique dialogue is a plus, in my opinion. In any game, fans are always dissatisfied with the localization, saying that they would have translated it better. Now, everyone has the opportunity to suggest their own version. I think they will choose the most logical ones.

I would prefer the original voice acting, with subtitles as a last resort.

Thinking about Knights of the Old Republic, I would agree.

The models are not that important; their designers earn their keep. But the composition of the factions could have been discussed with the fans. No gelatinous elves, please.

If the composition of factions were discussed with the fans... PLEASE MAKE A FACTION OF DEATH KNIGHTS/BLOOD ELVES/DRACONIANS! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR SUCH A FACTION FOR TWO YEARS!!
Fans, what kind of fans are they if they love not the heroes but their own flawed fantasies? Flawed, because, as a rule, that's exactly what they are. A fan comes up with some nonsense over lunch that's only interesting to him, and immediately goes to the developers: "IMPLEMENT MY THING IN THE GAME, I'VE BEEN A FAN FOR FIVE YEARS AND I'VE BEEN PLAYING."

They're often misguided because, as a rule, that's the case. A fan comes up with some interesting idea during lunch that only appeals to them, and immediately goes to the developers: "IMPLEMENT MY IDEA IN THE GAME, I'M A FAN, I'VE BEEN PLAYING FOR FIVE YEARS."
The same can be said about the developers and their (sometimes misguided) ideas, but the difference is that players have to accept what the developers have created. That's all there is to it.
The fact that there are dwarves in the fifth game, but not my second dungeon or the Dogma swamp, doesn't necessarily mean that the developers' idea with dwarves is better than ours.
They're just the creators, and they put into the game what they could come up with.

I'm also in favor of that, especially the Death Knights – so many skills could be created for them, it would be amazing!
