I don't know how much puppetworks scams Ubi for models, but you can find pretty good models for next to nothing (compared to the budget of a company like Ubi). For example: this is a very good model, rigged, with all textures and maps included and a fair number of polys for a game (19k), all for 160$. Add animation and it can't exceed 500 bucks, plus since it's already rigged animating won't be that hard (if animation are soooo expensive for ubi why do they add an extra one). The same can be said about this one (cheaper with 120$). Here we can see a fully animated dragon which looks pretty badass for only 600$. Wtf is ubisoft doing?

...lore? Spikes? Overdesigning troops? Give less money for development to take more money out of the profits?

I'm severely disappointed.
First to the video. Black Dragns moths are so freaking tiny, holy cow, what was that? Hydras are skinny too, they look so powerful on the art and so weak in 3D. Deers are huge, they are larger than the moths! And this is not the first time we have seen these arbitrary unit sizes. Limbic or whoever is doing the units should definetly sort that out asap, unit sizes are all over the place.
Secondly, the Dungeon page. Minotaur animations look somehow stiff and rigid, like they were running out of budget and had this one unit left to do and just went with lowest common denominator to still get it somehow done. Medusas look great in the art but unfortunately very disappointing in 3D, which might come from the re-using of the pearl priestess model. Sigh. And Moths are plain and simple 1:1 the exact same unit as in H6, eventhough they knew they were hated across the board. At least Troglodytes look somewhat okay-ish, although the strange bump on their backs shouldn't even be there.
And the town theme is bad too. Too boring, it feels like nothing is happening. Basically the same as in H6 with the Dungeon theme.
i need to take a breath of fresh air. I can't believe what they have done to the heroes franchise. It's probably best to not buy any Heroes related game anymore, as long as Ubisoft has the license of it.

Medusa (that macaroni lady) should have the ability: Steal Uniqueness of Another Unit. Didn't those Stronghold gazelles have that same move and shoot ability?

the quality of the butterfly dragon model is just tragic, it's the same as in H6  on concept art it looked little bit different, the worst unit along with the shade in dungeon, not a fan of strider also but at least it has new model

Just how hard is making something like this?
Pretty much majestic, and not a single hint of butterfly on it.

It's pretty hard... when all what you have is H6's moth model. It's not a question how to make a better dragon model, it's a question what you can do with current model - not much as you can see by H7 example.

It looks too much like a dragon, it's not very "ashany" 
Jokes aside, that dragon looks gorgeous.

*Siiiiiiiggggghhhhhh*
Everything is just soooooooo cheap about this game.
Not only is the game poorly designed even the animations are utterlly mediocre. Even indie studios(or maybe especially indie studioes) could do higher quality work than this.
Troglodyte is the most convincing sofar, especially its animation. It is obvious that this unit was designed from scratch and not lifted from H6.
Stalker animation is a joke. It can go die in a dich along with the assasin for all I care.
The Minotaur description says it can easily wield the large axe yet the animimation suggests it struggles with it. The upgraded on can wield it 1-handed though so I guess being shiny DOES matter in strength.
Medusa hair is made of snakes yet it looks like all the snakes are dead 'cos I ain't seein no movement there. Along with the genie animation this seems the worst made.
Any hope I had for the stider is gone now... It looks bad and it should feel bad.
Hydra is OK I guess.
The dragon that is supposed to be the most powerful and majestic is simply put mediocre. Not even the model is acceptable but its animation is simply pathetic.
BTW, Firefox crashed on me 3 times before I could finish this post becouse Ubisoft cant even code a website, not to talk of a game. At one point it was using 1.7Gigs of ram FOR A SINGLE WEBSITE!!!
Get your snow together Ubisoft.

So what articles can we get, besides these?
*Dungeon councillor, Jorgen
*Dungeon townscreen buildings
*Dungeon might & magic heroes
*Q&A part IV - Lore: how much we know
*Sandro article
*Beta articles
*Limbic studio, part 2: Toilet chronicles
*War machinery and tech tree
And they have six weeks until the release date. Hm, I can only see postponing the release date.

I guess were back to the copy and paste mentality we harped on so much about with the Necropolis. I can hardly see any difference between this dragon and h6. Even my dog can learn not to repeat the same mistake twice..... not sure what Ubi-limbic can possibly be thinking, especially if they want this to be "their H3". So disappointing :/
