The city is finally walled properly, and the chasm is shallower

It's much better, but still not there.

I'm glad they listened to us and made some improvements there - things like the no-wall were simply painful.

Walls only? Well, at least it's a sign of a tiny change (that's as far as my positive thinking can go). And the hole is now grassy.
The odds in all this are that they make units with tons of tiny details (how useful are those) and leave TSs like that, looking exactly like before: big camps. It's unfathomable. But that's just me.

Architectural problems are still present and unlikely to be fixed, but the atmosphere seems to have been significantly reworked.

Frankly, it's strange that they removed the trench, but kept the bridge.

It was just built, the town. Even the road couldn't be done in the meantime. Really ... I stopped 'hoping for' and now I'm just 'wondering': why these TSs suck this much. I remember the dreadful feeling in H6 when there were not even TSs to complain about. The clamor of fans showing their displeasure missing the town screen should have been reasons and strong enough to make people - those who are developing this thing - understand how important TSs were. The message takes a long time to sink, I reckon. Like 2 games to sink.

I wasn't exactly outraged by Heroes 6's town window, but... because of that, I didn't exactly feel like I was entering a town. It felt like I had no home...

That's the thing. Apparently they didn't thought it was important for you to see your kingdom spreading in front of you, having a warm place to get back to and defend it fiercely. It's all about feeling. I had the impression that whoever did that choice not to have town screens in H6 was a very cold-hearted individual. ^^

Well, there is definitely an improvement and the town looks much better without this shimmery statue.
However, Town portal and Transept are still out of place and uncovered...
Also the octagonal fort, strongly resembling H6 forts, makes me worried..
The bridge without trench was already mentioned.
So this TS is 0.000...01 % less horrible for me.

For those who are interested, here is the Haven Townscreen in good quality taken from the Steam presale (hover over image and click zoom in upper right corner to see larger size).
I still think it looks better with less colour, but the official version does sort of have a H2 vibe going for it.

Yeah, that looks rather ghastly, to be honest.

Original is better, really. I don't see why people always want to gray things out.

So, they have a bridge and they have a ditch. That's good.
But why do they have the ditch only under the bridge and not everywhere around the walls?
