Do you really want me to dig that Q&A where they put some really ridiculous questions?

My name is Erwan Le Breton, Might & Magic Content Director at Ubisoft.
My quest is to build the new world of Might & Magic that will be the setting of all the current and future M&M games produced and / or published by Ubisoft.
I would like to vote for a red settings menu.
And my favourite colour is red (for those with an unhealthy obsession for the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow.)
Outside of Ubisoft, I'm a published writer, author of a dozen pen & paper RPGs, children's novels, and comic books for various French publishers.

It's good to know about some, or most of the options available for H7. Of course, most of these are self-explanatory, and every Heroes game has its options to customize gaming experience. Still, juding by what is available it's going to offer lots of eyecandy. I wonder what it will look like in the Beta, probably not as polished as it will be in the end, but still.
The Option screens are a bit crude, as of now. The texts are too close to the left side of their boxes, so it requires some attention.
About the option to make Quick Combat trigger by default: It is nothing new. H3 had this, H4 too if I'm not mistaken, H5 had this and H6 featured it too. The latter one also enabled you to replay the combat manually if you believed you could do better than the computer. I use quick-combat a lot, especially when mopping up neutral stacks. In end-battle situations, however, I usually play the battle 'as it should'. Although quick-combat is a good way to test army strength against the enemy. A quick-combat win usually means a manual win too. I do hope that this quick-combat feature is similar to H6, because the AI is a pro at unnecessarily losing troops, which makes manually playing the battle almost a must...
"Keybindings" is a weird name. I prefer "Hotkeys". What is the idea behind that anyway? Binding keys to one's divine will like the necromancer binds ghosts and ghoul to himself, for eternal servitude?

It has options ... that is the news? Seriously? WTF!
Beta is approaching soon, that is why we must inform you our game will have ... options! They WONT reveal Dungeon or Sylvan or show us Vampire and Lich reworks ... they won't reveal more skills, or complete spellbook ? Instead they announce ... options.
Will they present us next the SHOCKING information that the game possesses a "NEW GAME" tab in the menu?! ... REALY, game will have "NEW GAME" written on screen! Omg guys, I'm so hyped 
What about a demo? Will there be demo of the game? This is better announcement than the news of options ...
But STILL! Even THIS NEWS has DOWNSIDES! Immagine that!
Here:
- There is only AA option to turn ON or OFF. Not 2x, 4x or 8x AA?
- Where is Anisotropic filtering option ???!!!
- I hate Sharder Quality where there's LOW, MEDIUM and HIGH. MUCH betterr is Sharder model: 3, 4, 4.1, 5.... for example. So you KNOW what you are setting.
- It has Dynamic shadow option, Distortion option and Ambient Occulision, but NO HDR.
- One good side: The game is runing max settings on Nvidia 970. I belive my 580 will cut it.

Hey, my name is Erwinnero de Lope Garcia de Bretonneira, I'm an outsourced financial director of the franchise from Spain.
I would like to suggest an option:
1) Let's make purple settings menu as a DLC for 2.99 and without this DLC players won't be able to finish a campaign;
2) Let's make customized settings only for those who pre-purchased digital super deluxe mega platinum much wow such spider figurine included edition for 666.66 euro. And other players should play default settings only 340p resolution max.
I think it's fair. We love our community and appreciate your passion.

Hey... Uhm, my name is Karl, they put me here to, i guess, talk about this game, what's its name? Heroes of Disciples and Wonders IX. This new game is, exciting? They put all the feature the fans wanted, like sim turns, townscreens, caravans, skillwheel, random skills at the touch of a button, spiders, scorpions, ice warriors, smoking ninjas and reptiles.
We've also implemented a number of different stages, a library and a crypt.
Luckily we have fixed the bug in which some kind of echoing voice shouted that you had to construct more pylons and the other in which a group of ants obliterated your castle.
So yes, I'm pretty excited for Lords of Magic and Strongholds XV, it will surely be a great addition for the Assassin's Fantasy series.
Also, while I'm at it, I'm taking the opportunity to tell the team that I finished painting the studios.

I think it's fair. We love our community and appreciate your passion.
It’s always very rewarding for us to read your various posts, see our design and lore proposals dissected to the very bone, and measure the degree of your passion and dedication.
We consulted the fans at a very early stage saying, "We're doing Heroes 5, what are your expectations?" Most of them said, in essence, "We want Heroes 3, with new graphics." That's about it!
The community was saying Heroes 6 was the worst game in the series ever. All the changes that I mentioned... they said it wasn’t Heroes. We want to do a good game but don’t have a vision for how Heroes should be.
For some people in the team, including me sometimes, it’s frustrating to always go with the conservative portion of our audience. Not surprisingly, the conservative line up won - you propose to the fans what they want and what they want is what they’ve played before with more beautiful visuals.
As you can see, Might & Magic remains a “labor of love”, for all the fans out there, and for us, who are lucky enough to be able to develop great games in this fantastic universe.

BTW as a financial director of this franchise I forgot to tell you that we will pay you as a storywriter only after 10 million copies will be sold.
Also fix the ceiling please and wash the floor, it's dirty.
P.S. We love and appreciate our team and outsourced developers, we try to make our cooperation comfortable for them.

No can do, I'll get to that immediately my master.
Also, what was that license you were talking about? Do I need to attend high school for that?

Great article. *nose starts bleeding due the amount of sarcasm*
Well, I'm sure some can expect they'll tell next time which file extensions the install extractor will provide, one by one.
