Reminds me a bit of the MM8 Troll. He looks well done. I'm surprised though that the default party has two Might Characters! That's a real first in Might and Magic history.

My mistake MM7 had 2 might characters (Thief, Knight), but MM10's default party is the first in Might and Magic history without 2 magic characters. It has 2 might characters, 1 hybrid, and 1 magic character.

Like it ! And after reading this post, i'm now pretty sure that classes will be tied to race choice ... And we'll have 3 classes by race.
Armor skills are just medium and heavy ? I though there was some light armor skill too ...

He prefers the mace or axe? Mace: GM, Axe: M, Spear: GM. Well he's pretty damn good with spear too. ^^

It feels like there is something still missing, like a roar ability and some non magical skills that can be used in battle.
We can also add bash door and chests to interact with the environment, and danger sense to sense presence of enemies near the party for example

@Magemam are you talking about something more than the warfare skills? - https://mightandmagicx-legacy.ubi.com/opendev/blog/post/view/51f7d290e754b6a367000007
I'm interpreting the warfare skill to be the equivalent to spells for might classes.

I'm sort of confused by "the race of a character’s class grants some specials." Does this mean that we will grant some specials no matter what races we choose? For example, if I create an orc (race) freemage (class), does she/he (an orc) be granted "Demon Slayer, Fierce, and Indomitable?"
Going back previous articles (TRAINERS AND CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT), I found this "When creating your own characters for your party, you can choose the class (which also defines the race)"

The screenshot of party creation tells differently as class and race are in different sections. I hope "which also defines the race" is a typo.

Please don't make orc females look THAT old, I'm not fond of old ladies in the game, sorry. I'm fully aware it's not what you've intended, and their bodies are mostly fine, but their faces is like of the grannies :/ I know orcs' life is tough, but it only means they die young and the wrinkled faces should be uncommon :D
rostsit
Also, I agree the whole gender-race-class matter reminds a bit messy, we still don't know if any combination is possible or the devs will create a strong limitations for them. Like - "this race can have only these classes and this race with this class can be only of this gender". Not cool at all :/

Can you allow us to fix our own posts? Sometimes it's really annoying to see a mistake not being able to to something about it.

Well, I can't say that I see much differences between normal and unconscious. I always thought that states of characters should be distinguishable without much effort.

@LASTJACK, no need for light armour skill. Like in real life, you don't need skill to wear simple clothes.
@MPEGWMVAVI, you cannot create orc freemage. Probably orc shaman, but not freemage. Classes are connected to race. Each race have 3 unique classes.

@SHUKFIR In former MM, and in most RPG, light armor skill was for leather armor type, medium = chainmail and heavy = plate.
Here it seems that we'll only have medium and heavy armor skills....

@ROSTSIT:
I'm perfectly fine with older looking characters. If one could only choose from children's faces this game would surely not attract middle-aged and older players. That's what I liked about the portraits of Wizardry 8: they were varied in age. So the game fit for old and young.
@MPEGWMVAVI:
Every RPG indirectly proposes a certain class for a specific race, simply because of their default skills. It's just fact. There is no RPG that I know of where this is different.

@SHUKFIR Thanks for clarify this. That is, there would be 4(races)*3(classes)= 12 unique combinations.
Another question is in previous articles "Character classes and races", devs mentioned that humans have initial buff (resistant to light magic) different from other classes (Dwarf: more HP, the rest wasn't mentioned). My question is would a Human mage and Human ranger (probably bowman?) has same initial buff. Is race what it counts? Or class options will affect the characters' initial stats?

@LASTJACK, look at 3rd screen. Medium armour skill is coloured in brown. So, more likely, it's leather. That means either chainmail is out of game or it's being heavy armour.
mpegwmvavi
Currently devs haven't take a screenshot in the class page. Maybe they are devoted to the default characters a lot? Hope to see more info about the combined bonuses of each race and class. :)
mpegwmvavi
@LastJack, probably that protection quality between chainmail and leatheris is huge different when a high medium armour skill tier is reached.
So that's why a barbarian can only expert the Medium armour skill.

"Light armor is his first choice, and he once heard how to use a bow." Beside that we can see that he can become expert only on the medium armor skill ...
So maybe medium armor skill will cover only light armor like leather armors until Master tier is reach, so the skill allows to use chainmail ?

Once again race disrimination. So no elven barbarians are possible?

Yea, do the elven barbarians! And cyclopi druids, while you're at it!

JSEBELA, elves are not barbarians, they are little bit more civilized nation :) Only half-demons (like orcs) can use Blood Rage ability.

It looks like I won't be playing an Orc Ranger either as individual Orcs are not only too dumb to use a shield but also too dumb to be individualistic or original enough to step out of the shadow of their oppresive kin :-(. Come on Lmbic open up all the race / class cobinations already, so I can role play characters as I wish to even if you don't agree with my choices. MMX is after all a Computer ROLE PLAYING Game.
rsurdal
If anything the classes are more free now. Now that you don't have to worry what class can GM in Identefy, disarmtrap, repair and those kinds of skills. So what if you can't have an orc Ranger. The orc Barbarian can become master in bow, thats something right?
rostsit
@Maomor
I'm Ok with the CHOICE of older looking heroes, the choice is always a good thing. But in this case there is NO choice as BOTH female orcs look oldish. So no, it doesn't cover all players from young to old and I can't associate myself with an old character. And your statement about "children" faces is beyond me - young is not only children, I consider people under 30 as young. Both female orcs look 40-50 years old and the male one - 50-60 years (by human standards).

Shukfir: well you could look at it from this angle: anyone can be barbarian if he does enough atrocities to earn the label. It is all about point of view - there are people and there are snobs who name them barbarian. In MM universe Dark elves certainly got this label more than few times from the Knights and nobility faction.
In short: barbarian can be anyone, as it is only label and lifestyle :-)

RSURDAL - How can be classes be more free now, when you are making one decision on two questions - Which race I'll pick? Which class I'll pick? The answer is you don´t have choice you pick class and you automaticly pick race also. Try and tell me why can´t there pick dwarven or orc ranger, elven defender or barbarian? Every person has its own personality, and if people something in commer, it is that they are different... they can be who they want to be, only have to put in some effort. XD
rsurdal
JSEBELA. I get what your saying, and agree that classes are locked to a spesific role. There's also no mixing of the human\orc\elevs\dwarfs classes, and I can see why some are upsett by this. Well, remeber there are 3 classes per race. There will probably be a range, fighter, and spellcaster in all of them. All iam saying is, your more free to pick whatever class you like. Now that you can get skills like Identefy, disarmtrap, repair etc. from blessings or hirelings.
Shukfir
JSEBELA, in Ashan you can't always be those, whom you want. If you born orc, you won't become Freemage, because your demonic blood won't let you learn high magic. Your culture can also have an influence on your choice. Elves do not teach their children of using crossbow, orcs feel discomfort while wearing plate armour...
If it were possible to pick any class to race in this game, we could lose the real difference between different Ashan cultures by replacing it with simple racial abilities.

i want to have more customization in creating the character like MM9, i would like to be able to create a human barbarian do you even think about how MM9 looked and played? WTF
villeFNW
make free customizastion Now!! an important thing about the MM serie is that i can make my characters how i want. to make my own personality, seems this game isnt having this feature, if i dont wanna play this game that lacking feature will be my reason not to play MMX. not even close to being a real MM game.
Belketh461
@VILLEFNW, so you mean MM6 & MM8 are not real MM games? Ha-ha. That seems MM9 is closer to this title.
Dear devs, please do not make free customizastion! We don't need orc knights and dwarf shamans! It's better to make more classes (maybe not in this game, but probably the next part).

At first, I don't understand why restriction of party creation are made by devs team.(see my previous comments below). After a second thought, I think its quite reasonable.
When we're creating our party, we first choose class, such as human, then we go to the next page (race), there are (probably) bowman (ranger), warrior (melee), and freemage (mage) available. As to Orc, we have (probably) Cyclop (ranger), barbarian (melee),and shaman (mage).
At last, I think it is just a name diversity.

When back to the necessity of restriction on party creation, it's really no need to be make race and class be individual. We still have our options to be a ranger, melee combatant, or a mage. However, in the culture of either race, it would be odd to have an option in class page called, say barbarian, when we choose elf in race. We probably have an elven warrior or elven lancer to choose from. Like I've said, it's just a name diversity.

Might and Magic 6 only had 6 classes and you had to be a human. In Might and Magic 8 you picked from one of eight races and that was your class as well. In Might and Magic 9, each character started with one of 4 races and one of two classes. With 12 classes Might and Magic X has more classes than both of those games. I really don't understand the complaints.

What is a real difference between sword and mace, so you made two different classes for different types of weapon? Shield or Dual weapon? What a big deal? Is barb some kind of damage dealer, and a guy with sword and shield in fullplate is a tank? Are you presume different combat tactics? Like offensive and defensive which will be predetermined by my party choice? Hope you are :)

twofoldsilence
Shukfir, just because previous Might and Magics didn't allow you to choose any combination of race/class doesn't mean MMX shouldn't. Also, the arguments on this post saying that it doesn't make sense for there to be an orc highmage, or an elf crossbowman. What if the elf using the crossbow was raised/trained by dwarfs or humans as an orphan of war, and the orc highmage's adoptive highmage father figured out a way to magically cleanse his body of demon blood?
forgottenl
@Twofoldsilence. While one could make up circumstances where such a combination is possible, it seems to me desireable for the combinations to be race specific. It gives each class for of a cultural flair. The Barbarian bodies look, for example, very orcish. They'd also have to add a whole bunch more art to make an orc looking freemage or a elf barbarian. Remember this game is on a limited budget.
yolev48
I like the combination of 12 classes, with just a few grandmaster promotion possibilities for each. That way, strategy and planning becomes important just as in the
previous M&M games. Looking forward for new classes..

Shukfir
TWOFOLDSILENCE, well, interracial children or orphans are possible in Ashan. But, as for me, they are so rare, that it does not have sense to implement this in the game. I suppose, RPG mechanics should not describe unique cases. Unique cases can be implemented into plot, but not in mechanics. For example, in Ashan there are can be some conjoined twins or elves turned into a living fungus. But that does not mean, that devs have to make them as playable characters.

BELKETH461, so you say you didnt like that in the earlier, im sure you havent played the MM games and just noticed a new game called MMX is being developed and being a supporter to a serie that you know nothing about. and its lame that the developers doesnt make free customization when the earlier game had that feature, maybe the new developers didnt like that and make the game too different and shouldnt make this crappy game to this serie at all. just saying.
Belketh461
VILLEFNW, i've played 8th, then 6th and 7th parts. The only part, where goblin knights and dwarven druids were possible was 7th. And I still think it was too strange option.
villeFNW
my bad, not completly free customization but so that for example humans, male or man can have the choice to be a ranger wizard or knight, so that each race can have their type of classes. like the orc have barbarian. but i think orc could atleast have anoyher choosable class.
Shukfir
VILLEFNW, each race will have 3 choosable classes. Although humans won't have for example Ranger class, they'll have another classes, that will be able to use some of the Ranger's abilities, e.g. Freemage - Air and Earth magic, probably Knight - Sword etc.
