Truly agree, better medieval-style than manga-warcraftish as it was in H5-6

Indeed.
I hope Angels aren't the only creature that got a great design in H7...there are still 4 full factions with 8 creatures each

The creature art looks incredible. I NEVER expected Ubisoft to take such a dramatic turn from their highly fantasy designs. It reminds me of MMX in a way, where there not every object you see has neons incorporated. It seems more down to earth.
Trust me, were I not to like it, I'd be the first in line to rage on them. Just see the way I reacted the other thread with the griffins

SQUEEEE
II - What is your favorite Heroes faction?
Inferno, Inferno, Inferno(don't understand the dislike for inferno) and inferno
III - Which factions you think should be featured with vanilla Heroes 7?
Well I and voting fortress so I assume the last one is dungeon vs inferno so I say inferno
IV - On the first vote, who will you chose between Sylvan and Fortress, and why?
Fortress dwarves are awesome and they were fun to play in heroes 5
HEY YOU! I like you.
Now, second vote will be between Dungeon and Inferno, and we can make this HAPPEN MY FRIEND!
I am also diehard fan of Demons and I won't let this one go! Make 100 different emails and 100 different Ubi accounts, same as me, and all vote for Inferno, ME AND YOU CAN MAKE THIS HAPPEN!
YES we must band together fellow lover of inferno! Seriously though I hope they win considering Sylvan is pretty much in considering they are destroying the dwarves and Ashan dungeon is dark elves.
Don't want another elven faction gimmie my demon lords! Plus Kha Beleth is awesome. Still they are up against dungeon many old school fans will vote dungeon. I just hope they make inferno's voting and information cool enough for people to consider voting for them.
I hopeful somewhat because on the ubisoft forum there is topic on people wondering where is Inferno. Considering they are vanilla to Ashan when it first came about so I assume there are some inferno lovers out there.
I mean its going to be sad if dungeon win considering we have a faction who specialize in darkness and fortress is losing so we have no one representing the element of fire.
An interesting thing is that many people in the comment section of the voting want inferno to be in actually and would actually be quite mad if they did not make it. I see more comments for inferno than dungeon so who knows a miracle may occur. XD
Plus it seems people don't want dungeon to win the next voting since now its pretty much guarnteed that Sylvan are in. Since people don't want two elven factions.
Going by the comment section of this voting.
Considering the artwork I think if inferno wins we will see something interesting, people also have to remember these races will be on the council a demon lord on the council that would be interesting in my opinion.
Who knows the inferno counciler might be Kiril well thats the only lore friendly one I can think of since he is the only known demon lord against Kha Beleth and the only Demon a Griffin would trust.
Considering the necromancer counciler looks to be Anastasya another Griffin.

I - Slightly positive. The developers at least seem to care about diversity among the units (no more six dwaves-Fortress) and the originality of each faction, by giving each of them several unique traits.
II - Dungeon/Warlock (pre-Heroes V), Academy (post-Heroes V)
III – Ideally, Haven (in a original fashion, not the bland standard good-knights), Academy, Dungeon (with as few dark elves as possible), Sanctuary (in a way that resembles Heroes III's Fortress), Necropolis and one new faction representing the Sylath-worshiping Free Cities of the East, perhaps resembling HoA:s Cove town.
IV – Fortress, not because I like it, but because it's the lesser evil for me. If Sylvan resembles Heroes V's stereotypical elven faction, I don't want it to be in the game at all.

Kiril is supposed to be acting dead since 50SoP, so I don't think we will see him back any time soon, or at least not as himself.

I am going to be flamed with hellfire over this, but I think the demons need a break.
The demons just seem less scary if you use them too many times.
The demons should be released in the very latest expansion, after ubisoft works out all the many kinks that will inevitably plague the Vannllia game, and first expansion. Only then can we have a proper introduction with H7 demons.

I am wondering how did you come to this conclusion? Out of 2 faction that we know so far, one has a Wolf, 6 Human units and "Human with Wings". At least for Haven, it is pretty much the opposite of what you've just said.
I am not complaining though, for me it doesn't matter if all(or majority) of the units are from the same race if they are well done.

You won't really get flamed, it is just your opinion. If you read few threads about factions, you will realize that maybe majority of people here dislike Demons and would like to see anything instead of them.

I - I'm happy we're getting a new HoMM game. Hopefully it'll turn out well and support won't be dropped early, and that the devs do their job properly so we get all the features we want.
II - It's difficult to choose. I'm generally partial to the Knight/Castle/Haven factions, especially the ones in HoMM 2 and HoMM 5.
III - They have to have the classic four from HoMM 1: Haven, Sylvan, Stronghold, and Dungeon. Then they can diversify, though I think the other two factions should be Necropolis and Academy, so we can have the classic six from HoMM 2.
IV - Sylvan. HoMM 5 Fortress was a rather boring faction, IMO. More can be done with it, I'm sure, but if it comes down between it and Sylvan, Sylvan is more important.

I - What is your early impression about the new Heroes VII?
- I have high expectations for Heroes VII. The most important thing for me is that the gameplay will contain the best features from the previous Heroes titles (still praying for the simultaneous turns). I believe that Heroes VII will be the best game from the entire franchise.
II - What is your favorite Heroes faction?
- I was in everlasting dilemma about this... Academy or Dungeon (Dark Elves? Probably Academy.
III - Which factions you think should be featured with vanilla Heroes 7?
- I want all to be included especially Sylvan and Dungeon.
IV- On the first vote, who will you chose between Sylvan and Fortress, and why?
- I already voted for Sylvan. Why? Because UBI wants you to choose only one of them :/ and for me Elves are an obligatory part of every HoMM game (except Heroes VI obviously).

Topic Questions
I - What is your early impression about the new Heroes VII?
It's good, a lot better than Heroes VI. I admit that I'm even looking forward to it, more that I had expected post-Heroes VI. I get the feeling that Limbic has a better understanding of what Heroes is about than Black Hole and Ubisoft combined.
II - What is your favorite Heroes faction?
Traditionally it's been Haven and Academy, I really can't choose between the two. But in the past few years, Stronghold has started to rub off on me, enjoying those more and more.
III - Which factions you think should be featured with vanilla Heroes 7?
Haven, Academy, Stronghold, Sylvan, Necropolis, Dungeon.
IV - On the first vote, who will you chose between Sylvan and Fortress, and why?
I chose Sylvan, for two reasons: I have more "feel" for Sylvan from previous games (Fortress in this incarnation was only used once, in Heroes V, and while it wasn't that bad, I didn't really like it) and it was a glaring omission from Heroes VI.

Not many people like the dark elves ether. There's much resentment after they replaced the heroesIII dungeon.
Anyone want to place bets?

If they decide to make a vote between Dungeon and Inferno, I'd personally choose Inferno. But that's the only instance I'd choose them. Were there to be Sanctuary or Fortress, I'd choose them rather than the demons.
The interesting thing is that many people claim the vote will be between Dungeon and Inferno, but I really doubt we'll see Inferno part of any voting at all. It may be that what I know is actually false, and the devs didn't decide to absolutely refrain from featuring demons with vanilla.

I am embarrassed to say that I remember reading on the website that Inferno vs Dungeon would be the next vote, but now I can't seem to find it anywhere.
Maybe I am starting to see things in my old age.

Better late than never.
I - What is your early impression about the new Heroes VII?
As a long-time fan, I am excited but cautious about the game. I really hope it does well.
II - What is your favorite Heroes faction?
The Necropolis has been my favorite faction ever since I played the Heroes 2 demo I got in PC gamer. I love the old-school Power Liches.
III - Which factions you think should be featured with vanilla Heroes 7?
Haven, Stronghold, Slyvan, Dungeon sans derp elves, Academy, Necropolis.
IV - On the first vote, who will you chose between Sylvan and Fortress, and why?
Fortress. The only reason I include Sylvan of the factions I want in the vanilla game is that it feel wrong to exclude one of the core factions of the series from any Heroes game. That said, I find a tree-hugging elf faction to be incredibly cliche, much more-so than any cliche dwarf faction.

Myself, I'd welcome the return of one of the Heroes sequel's core factions. The Sorceress town was lovely and unique to the game series, even if it wasn't my favourite. It's just that the cliché elf faction isn't the Sorceress town. I refuse to recognize it as a continuation of such.
In practice, among the game's core factions, only the Knight faction remains from Heroes I. Both Warlock (nowadays emo elves) and Barbarian (nowadays Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.. sorry, meant "orcs") have been corrupted into unrecognizability.
