I think all our focus should be towards skill and magic systems, hero specs and creature abilities.
I'm ranting down SC. (My account has been suspended, hence the fake). Whoever agrees upvotes, whoever doesn't ignores.

Yeah not sure if insect fits in Dungeon.. but Im still hoping to see a Hive faction or something similiar, full of disgusting abominatinos and insects 
I disagree! Insectoids do fit Dungeon. If you think about it, where else will you find insect predators able to grow big enough if not in caves and ancient tunnels? Centipedes, Scarabs and the likes can evolve without predators and thus become the primary predator. The lack of light also helps them. Even bats and snakes tend to nest closer to the entrances rather than deep down
Partially in Sylvan, do you remember the giant mantis?

Hahaha! Alexine! NO!  That it is not what we want at all...
Now, now, don't be quick to judge the idea of a Hive faction. Anything that can shake off the warhammer influence in my opinion can be good in my opinion. And one can never have too many spiders in a game amirite?
Seriously though I really would like to have a faction that is based around non-humanoid animals and it wouldn't even matter which animals it would be(except rats and spiders ofc). Chickens, worms, pigs, squids it wouldn't matter if they had a herd/hive/horde mentality to them.

Yup, i do, and i was really fond of that unit. It represents another part of nature usually forgotten but also quite strong in its own right. If there were giant ants or other insects they could perform supehuman wonders with them able to lift 40 times their weight or cut with scissor precision and so on.
But as they are insect of light and forests, there are also insect of caves and darkness

That is 40K. WH Fantasy has skaven as ratpeople. But as I said any animal would do. A faction based around battle hamsters and slug-cats from space would do just fine if they had some mystery behind them and not have eveything S-P-E-L-L-E-D O-U-T I-N C-A-P-I-T-A-L L-E-T-T-E-R-S beforehand by the allmighty lore.

I personally se the biggest flaw in Hero spec.. The low number of creature spec. and the 10 skill skill wheels are OK in my book. Spells do lack but that is not as hard to fix as the hero spec. that cripple the game a bit more.
The lack of originality in them creates a setting off low variety, that threatens to diminish replayability.
Older game could be fun with simple spells and low to non creature spec. And even if at some eras heroes had nothing to them other then an icon. Now they are our starting block. The main drive that can change our gaming experience.

Yes, we have no idea about what's going on, Heroes 7 will be a failure because of its mechanics and everyone knows it, yet everybody just praises a developer when he dares to come down here and post some random stuff, no one does anything nor take action, then the third Ubi game will be released, and everyone will complain again.
Wake up FFS, if the community is unhappy, make it known. Is not one random message with a puke face once in a while in an exiled fan forum that will change things.
As for the people being happy about the mutilation of the brand, more power to you what can I say.

I haven't done this in a long time, but I think it is needed again. Galaad that what you have said is YOUR opinion. You are not alone with it, but it is not the general opinion of everybody. I still think that only those who have a problem with it feel the need to be heard. At my community the mood is rather positive. it's only a few dozens of players but they look forward to the game.
There are some flaws, and each with a different importance to each member here. But the game IMHO looks better then H6 and I would bet my 5€ on it, that the game will be a success.
But as I wrote some pages back. I did not pre-ordered it and I don't plan to.

Then again it needs to be H4, which wasn't very successful. Still better than H6, though.

it would be hypocritical to think homm 3 is any good and then turn around and think homm 7 is crap because of game mechanics. You want bad game mechanics, look at the early homm games.
fact of the matter is that game mechanics need a lot of playtesting and iteration to understand and sitting around here theorycrafting about them isn't going to determine whether or not the game has bad mechanics
