Well, I also like my Dark Elves, especially Eruina and Shadeia – they’re cute little brats ;) – but some of the so-called Light Elves and Demons didn’t impress me...
New here? I'm Roha — want a quick tour?
I need a decent Didro from the Necropolis faction in Heroes. The rest... well, they're just not good enough!
I'll switch to a Dark Elf for this! :-D
I disagree about the elves; how can they be considered "buff"? They are quite slender. Compare an elf to a minotaur, and it's immediately clear who is more muscular.
The elves have decent heroes, so what if they're buff? Would you rather have some random guy or Rakh leading the army?;) In those harsh times, it was simply necessary to be strong, brave, smart, a leader, etc.:)
Message from Magnus
Elves should have bows, and they should also look like civilized elves, not like barbarians.
That's exactly how I see them, even better.;)
That’s what I’m saying, in Heroes 5 they look more like barbarians;), than pure-blooded elves.
Message from Night
Normal elves, what's the problem with them? Tell me: what material should elves live in? If you listen to Magnus, they can't harm nature in any way and will live in the open, without a castle, because they can't use wood. And they'll also eat compost, right?
Elves should have some kind of imposing presence; maybe they're not obsessed with protecting nature, and they're drawn to simple power over the world.
Normal elves, why are you [picking on] them? Now tell me: what material should elves live in houses made of? If we listen to Magnus, they can't possibly offend nature and will have to live under the open sky, without a Castle, because well, it's not allowed to use wood. And they'll eat compost too, right?
Elves should have some kind of fierceness; maybe they aren't obsessed with protecting nature, and they are drawn by simple power over the world:)
