Interview with Fabrice
More than 130 creatures (this number includes upgrades, which i've also seen are confirmed in the game)
The game has been "playable" for a few months now.

Actually, he corrected himself in the forum, saying that it will "just" be ~130 (around the basic number of h3) but an addon is planned with wich they will top 130

it's good to have so many creatures in there; I hope the number is large enough to include creatures like pegasi, basilisks, but small enough to leave aside spawns, dragon golems and leprechauns.
Edit: I was thinking, he mentioned that he surfed a little on the heroes net forums, and he mentioned CH and some russian site. Does he know that this forum exists? In fact, how important is our forum compared to others? Can anyone (who really knows, not guesses) put the pride aside and tell me?

Yes, correct. 130+ is for Heroes 5 with first expansion.
Yes, he does know it exist and has made a some posts here.

He posts at Celestial Heavens and the official Ubisoft forum, stays in touch with the French site(his mother tongue) and the Russian site (close to Nival and always have the news first). He also said he was surprised by the size of the Polish community.

OK, then my next question would be: who is the person who asked the questions? He/She certainly is a yes-man. Not only the questions are way too polite and do not mention a hot topic on every forum - of course, I'm talking about the creature design - but is also impertinent enough to start a question like this: "the official teaser site is absolutely gorgeous". Now I understand that he/she was supposed to ask questions in the name of fans. Where did he/she find this? Because it's disgusting.

I wrote down the questions with the help of a member of my team. If I had not been polite, I'm not sure Fabrice would have bothered answering me at all. The guy is working on a computer game, he is not on trial. And I'm not sure all fans support your little crusade against the creatures, so complaining about them would have been pointless.

The interview follows a good etiquette and style.
I see nothing wrong with it, besides I think the creatures do look very good. A lot of persons do.

It's not what I meant.
Of course you can never be too polite, and it's not the etiquette that I'm talking about.
But you can also ask politely: "Look, there's been complaining by some people about the creatures, do you have any comments on that?" It's polite and it's objective too.
Is it rude to ask: "How did the team come to the conclusion that the latex-type of characters fit into the fantasy micro-world previously known as HOMM"? It may be incisive (which is always good for a question) but not rude.
The main issue AFTER the release of the screenshots was the 3D and the creature debate, so I would have expected to see some explaining on those things.
And democracy may mean the rule of the majority over a minority, but 1) no one has ruled yet who is the majority on this issue and 2) even so, the minority can ask a question, right?
Of course Angelspit is entitled to ask any question he/she pleases, but it's personal, not in the name of all of us. At least that's how I see things....
Edit: Is Monsieur Fabrice to be teased with some flowers and candy to asnwer some petite questions, or in France they never heard of PR?
2'nd edit: They're already playing it and all we get are 4 truncated screenshots? That's really a lot of info.
Moderator's note:This topic has been closed, as it refers to an older version of the game. To discuss Heroes 3, please go to Library Of Enlightenment, to discuss Heroes 4, please go to War Room Of Axeoth, to discuss Heroes 5, go to Temple Of Ashan.
