i think they got a hint(i hope) about all that purple-ness and they will tone it down should dungeon win.
I would change my vote for a purple-free dungeon to tell the truth.

Don't worry, they wouldn't be purple anymore... there will be pink now!

Like you?

Thought this might be of use here. Some info on Inferno, confirmed by Marzhin. Source

Demons are reborn as Imps and must climb "upstairs" to regain their lost power and bodies.


Aaaand... from imps... you get all the forms of demons? What the hell is this, zerg evolution?

Not exactly.
According to the Compendium, Demons far generally into 3 categories.
Those that are essentially Clay, to be shaped by their own desires. Those that are strong enough to impose their desire on others. And Succubi and Incubi.

Indeed, like the Zerg, Demons are constantly reshaping themselves. However unlike the Zerg, Demons are "in controll" of their own reshaping of sorts. The nature of their desire guides their change. Though each Demon is unique in it's speed and manner of change, those that satiate a particular desire tend to form into rough categories.

Like the Hellhounds and Cerberi, who were once the servants of the Overlord of Voracity. It is therefor implied that Cerberi were once Imps, that mainly satiated their hunger and gluttony. Their ever changing bodies shaping them into the form of the 3-headed Demondog we know.
Once they become so strong that they can impose their will on others, it is implied that the change slows down greatly or stops all together.

Succubi and Incubi are a different category alltogether. They are essentially reincarnated Cultist, who after death, get sent to Sheogh into a different cycle of rebirth, due to them changing allegiance from the creation of Asha to the creation of Urgash. Succubi and Incubi keep their relatively Human-like appearance, it is greatly implied that they change at the same rate as the Demons strong enough to impose their will if at all, and aren't completely bound to Sheogh, since they are still somewhat part of Asha's Creation. They can therefor leave Sheogh and exist on Ashan indefinatly, which is why they are often used as Agents of the Sovereign and the Overlords when they were still alive. Though the Succubi and Incubi tend to not be powerfull or smart enough to be little more then servants and courtesans.

Jezebeth becoming a Succubus due to her demonic allegiance is therefor consistant with the lore. Though it is very likely that she is continually reborn as a Succubus, unlike other demons. It is greatly implied that there is a great rat-race among the Succubi and Incubi, rivaling the dog-eat-dog struggle for survival amongst the Demons themselves.

Edit: Care to comment, Marzhin?

Nope, that's a great post
There are definitely different types of imps though. An Imp spawned by the Overlord of Voracity would not look at all like an Imp spawned by the Overlord of Pain.

Now that I think about it we might actually get a story on how Kha-Beleth became a demon in the first place. I mean he was once a freedom fighter right? We don't know more beyond that.

No ;-)
Faceless are my favorite  race on Ashan but they are the first unite I would drop from the lineup.

Lorewise I it just does not fit for me. Sure we are going to play stories about the factions, but still I think Darkelves have more to tell.
Nostalgia is symple H2 factions.

If they would re-designe the lurker, and all the none DE units in the line-up, not to be so purple Dungeon would be great.

Until recently, the mysterious Dark Elves...


*sigh*  Oh great, another super-secret dark elf faction who has had to survive hidden in the shadows.  It just screams of originality!  This is exactly why I did not want Sylvan to be another idiot elf faction because now we will be stuck with another idiot dark elf faction.

And if "fan favorite" Raelag (I really, really want to know who thinks Raelag is a fan favorite) is back in the game, I will strongly reconsider buying the game.  I didn't buy Shades of Purple for that reason.  I can easily sink $60 into another game.  Quick aside:  anyone else notice the similarities between Raelag and the Phantom of the Opera?  Both fell in love with little girls they were watching.  Creepy.

Also, you should try to find a smaller picture Avonu.  

*EDIT*  Thanks, Avonu.

Sorry mate, I maybe misunderstood. Unfortunately I never had a chance to play H2 (yet?). On the other hand I wouldn't drop the Faceless for anything. But, as for the "too much purple" I am 100% on your side (oh, and: Ubi please get rid of those "papillon" dotted wings, will you  )...

On impulse, I decided to go for inferno. Whether it will keep my vote will depend a lot on the upcoming updates.

I still don't get why we should  vote instead of having a bunch of enlightened designers with a vision deal with the game , I guess they need moar excuses if the games turns out to be boring. Seeing the latest results, we might as well vote now ...

I really enjoy playing dungeon for sure but inferno usually brings very specific gmeplay to the table so ...I go inferno until I get more info on both of the contesters and how the devs envision putting them into the game.
At least with both of them , the line-up vote which will automatically end in the 'moar damages' line up to win will make sense this time.

Don't be butthurt just yet my fellow inferno voter.
28 days left is still a lot of time.
I wonder how soon the first update about the factions is going to be available. I can't remember but it took around 1 week before the elf/dwarf vote.

It's 58%-42% at the moment....

It improved a bit for Inferno but can we win? I'd say it's a slim chance...

Sigh. Why are these people so naive. This isn't old dungeon anymore. THESE ARE DARK ELVES.

DARK. ELVES. I already had enough of puncing pointy eared snows.
