I liked the first unit of the Dark faction in the fifth game. In general, both factions' elves are relatively normal. But they are normal only in relation to Warcraft and its wave, and unfortunately, not in relation to Heroes...
It's a matter of opinion. To be honest, I didn't like that dwarves and elves hung out in the same castle in the old Heroes games, but for everyone else, it was normal... They fixed this in the fourth game, and in the fifth, hooray! Both elves and dwarves finally became what they should be. In the fifth part, the factions and their composition seemed the most logical to me throughout the series... If we talk about the sixth, then honestly, the composition is a bit confusing, but...

It depends on the person. To be honest, in the old Heroes games, I didn't like that dwarves and elves hung out in the same castle, but for others, it was fine...
But I actually liked it. I've always thought it was normal. That's why I'm not really looking forward to dwarves.

What should they be like then?

Dwarves and elves have always been opposites!

No, I haven't reached the 4th degree of Tolkienism yet. Although... :)

In Tolkien's world. But not in all other universes. And Might and Magic has its own world, not Tolkien's Middle-earth. Besides, in Fortress, only a military alliance between dwarves and elves is represented; they have different states.

And even in the Rampart, there is only a military alliance of dwarves and elves; they have different states.
You are right, +1 to you. It's like an empire there... If you take the third game, for example, in the Dungeon, it's not even clear who they are. Didn't anyone find it strange that harpies are there? Or what do these monsters have in common? There are seven different monsters there, just like in the Swamp; what brought them together? And in the Rampart, there are two units for the "elves" (WOW!) – an archer and a pegasus rider. (By the way, what happened to the centaurs from the first two parts? They were for the Warlocks.) So, these weren't elves; it was the Rampart (or bastion. I have a different translation now). The only ones who represented the entire race were the humans (5 units with the same appearance!) and Inferno (6!!!) (I'm not counting Necropolis because they're just corpses there).

Harpies inhabit Nighon. And everything is quite clear. The lineup of the Dungeon includes magically bred (manticores, minotaurs, beholders) and tamed (dragons, harpies, medusas, troglodytes) creatures in the armies of Warlocks and the Underlords of Nighon.

The Rampart is indeed not an elven city; it is a city representing forest creatures. That is why there are tamed centaurs there (who usually live in wild tribes).

Inferno had more than one race; there were Krigans ("devils" on the seventh level) and the creatures serving and bred by them.

Inferno did not have just one race; there were Krigans ("devils" at level 7) and the creatures that served and were bred by them.
I'm saying that in those Heroes games, the factions were similar to empires, or something like that.
Well, regarding the tamed creatures (I don't like the campaign because it restricts freedom of action – this is my personal opinion, so I don't know the Heroes world very well), but I don't think they were tamed like dogs. Especially since there are troglodyte heroes.
And what about the swamp? Is it the same story?

It's a pity that there won't be "swamps" in the sixth game. I would like to see these guys there first.

The point is that only those who are unaware consider them to be demons.

That's the point – only ignorant people consider them demons.
Then, no lol.

Um, minotaurs? Why? Aren't they a separate, original race?

Again, not all of them were bred, and this is mentioned in the fourth game. Ifrits were independent; they simply allied themselves with a powerful "ally."

As for the centaurs in the Dungeon and the Fortress, we shouldn't forget that Antagarich and Enroth are two different continents, and it's not surprising that the preferences of those living on them may differ, even though it's the same race.

Minotaurs were bred by Warlocks in Krigspire under the leadership of Agar. Some of them created their own culture in other lands (in the labyrinths of Nighon, the Lair of Baltazar) and served in the armies of the Warlocks.

I didn't say that all of them were bred. There were allies, such as Ifrits and domesticated creatures (Gog, Hellhounds).

It's strange why the Elves are in first place.
I'm rooting for the Academy.
