Quote: It is just one unit, come on. And it seems to have so pretty awesome gameplay style.
Yeah I can agree that it is kinda gross but on the other hand every other unit in the Inferno is already burning and raging they just need more EYES!
This unit is a nice twist.
But Jaba, why would you want eyes if all you'll see 99% of your life is a realm of shadow and flame? there's not much to see.
It's why many subterranean animals have poor or no eye sight at all.
Demons traditionally seem to have supernatural senses to locate living creatures aside from eyesight anyway.

Okey okey I'm fine that some of the creatures don't have eyes
I just want the Tormentor to have eyes, I would fit, especially if the eye sockets are half torn out

To balance things out I suppose the Pit Lord should have 5 or more eyes.
Be creative, Ubi.

Really? I think the Breeder is totally awesome!
Now if they only removed the Maniac, made the Breeder or Tormentor core and added Efreet as elite I would super happy.

I agree that the Breeder is awesome and it's a totally new creature, so it's really interesting. Yes, it's gross but it's a demon, so it should be gross.

The breeder is disgusting IMO, it is even more disgusting because it comes from the Cthulhu lore and the universe of Lovecraft. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cthulhu
These associations are the reason I am seriously thinking if I will ever play Inferno in H6. But this is not the first time Ubisoft is allowing occult symbols to lurk in their games. I am reffering to the chaos sphere used as a symbol for the Devils in H5, the eight pointed star the devils are wielding as a weapon. It comes from Peter Caroll's and Austin Osman Spare (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaos_magic). The chaos star is used in rituals very close to the satanic messas as a symbol to concentrate the "flow of chaos" and to interfere with people's mind (I am not claiming that this really happens but there are people out there that are using these ideas and are believing and practicing this).
On the other hand the halo of the angels in H5 is another symbol, known as the Flower of Life, which is recognized in many cultures as a symbol of light (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flower_of_life) - http://www.maps4heroes.com/heroes5/pictures/haven/HOMM5_Haven_Archangel.jpg
Anyway symbols can transmit different messages on subconscious level and better not use them in games that are played by children (not that the adults are immune to this, because starring at the screen for hours can imprint so much stuff into your mind).

lol, it's like gonarch. at least it's not another humanoid bipedal creature.
they don't have a single flyer and we aren't sure they even have a shooter, they seem to have a weird idea of balance this time.

Then I should be a full fledged abysmall demoniac by now, seeing how much I loved and extensively played all (save for H4) Inferno incarnations so far.

the reason they do not have any flyers is because part of their racial is about teleporting around, so they do not need flyers

The Breeder is a shooter, and so is the Succubus most likely as well.

Judging by the comments on Facebook, this is the most divisive creature so far among the hardcore fans.

As you already know, I am strongly disliking most of the crap that Black hole throw into this game. However, this time I must admit that the Breeder is a very good unit. That's how innovative stuff should look like - repulsive, ugly, intimidating demon that SPAWNS more and more demons - after all that's what Inferno is all about. In addition to this, thanks to the Breeder we will have a chance to see the beloved Imps once again
Final word - After all of the BS Black hole have already put in this game, I think that the Breeder is a good one. Yeah, it's true that it stole the spot of classics like the Nightmare and the Efreet, but it's more bad-ass and "demonic" than them and adds that "consuming feel to the Inferno line-up". So thumbs up for the Breeder.

I think I would like the Breeder more if it didn't have all those weird tentacles. It seems to me that they could have brought back the TRUE imp (trickster kind of dude, looking a bit like the imps and quasits from D&D) and have them spawned out of a creature kind of like insects.
I do like the similarities to Cthulhu, though. Mostly because I'm a fan of Lovecraft.

It is a Demon! You cant compare to humans. Just think he spits the imps or something like that. Even cow breeding is worse than that.
If you dont like it well then neve play as Inferno. There are 4 other races and warcraft 3 fans didnt mind.
I think you are wasting Forum space here...

The breeding itself seems to be very similar to a corals asexual breeding, that it sometimes just releases polyps(imps)
Edit: It is the same with anemones and the breeder actually looks a little bit like a anemone XD
