So my Hungarian is rusty but... noting new the German article covered much of that but:
When the 2 reporters re sitting at the PC one the first said the games looks good and definitely a improvement and a step in a good direction, the second one said he has some objections but mostly are do to the early stage of the game, and something regarding how creature attack in mele sorry couldn't quite get that.
Interviews
With the Hungarian dev. Lead Game Designer Gabor Szabo:
First question was regarding the area control ..no new info
Second question about the reputation system again nothing new.
The targeted audience the answer was that since the main base fan is located in Europe the are the main focus and try to make the game to be to there liking or something on those lines
With The Ubisoft representative Erwan Le Breton
Talked about most of the things covered in the linked interview about the focus on PC and not console etc, so nothing new a just that the fact that H5 had a Slavic named royalty Nicolai and that the founder of the Griffin Dynasty has the name Istvan and is a coincidence's and not related to the country of the developers

I'm sure I'll regret this as it seems like anytime I ask something while there is newer news going on my posts get overlooked, but I'll ask this again.
In regards to these skill trees, do they definitely change based on your faction, or does every faction have the same pool to choose from? I'm not talking about the Hero Ability Tree that appears to be faction-specific, I'm refering to the Might Tree and the Magic Tree.

Greetings, Heroes Community!
Being a polyglot I happen to know Hungarian, so here's a quick recap of what they told us in the video:
-They weren't allowed to show us actual footage
-Gameplay is apparently more dynamic "faster" than in earlier heroes
-It is the most beautiful installment yet- according to those who could try it
-Being an alpha build, it still has some glitches, (mainly sound-related), and some "illogical things", for example a might hero directly attacking a unit behind a castle wall, seeming to be able to "ride right to the unit"(in spite of the wall) -weird, as I recall, the exact same thing happened in h5, no, Anyway, official explanation is that "The "might" hero is actually magical enough to summon a ghost to attack them, thus the entity which is identical to a hero, in the disputed cases, is actually a "ghost" which vanishes after the attack -again, exactly like h5, dunno why the silly explanation
-The founder of the griffin dynasty is called István -completely unrelated to the fact, that BH is Hungarian(They mentioned some emperor in h5, which coincidentally had a russian name- not having played h5, I didn't catch the reference)
-When explaining AoC to the interviewer, Boci let it slip that it also applies to "observatories, lighthouses..."
That is all the "new" info, the rest we already know. I hope my post helps, am a slow typer so sorry if someone already translated it.
EDIT: I knew it! Kenishi was faster

Actually, the devs call him Istvan because they are Hungarian, but his real name is Stefan.

I like Istvan better.
400 pages, and counting... That goes to show how popular H6 has become! Even more so when the most of us here are new and joined in only because H6 is coming out.
So, isn't this a celebration, or what?
Anyways, it was kind of a silly excuse to say that a might hero summons a ghost of himself to attack behind the walls in a siege. I would rather them say, "So what? It's just a game!". The attack of a might hero wether he's ranged or melee, is just an animation. Just because some of them happen to be attacking with a sword, when there's a wall they should not attack? Screw realism on that, really!

So I mustn't say anything more.  You done the work.
Oh Steven and Stefan = Istvan in hungarian.
Nicolai was a russian name in Heroes V and it had got a russian developer.
And the new things that yeah this game more dynamic than its predecessors and very beeatiful. And some bugs apperead but just minor ones. Also news may be that the area control system is covered to just just mines. (observatories, lighthouses, dwellings outside on the map etc.) Szabó 'Boci' (this nickname mean cow ) Gábor said many things in english and after it hungarian strangely. (area control etc. )
The interviewers said that the decvelopers are really kindful, helpful and masters in their profession and that the Armies of Exigo was a really good game.

PC Gamer preview: http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/02/24/might-magic-heroes-vi-preview/
nothing new really, except maybe this one: 'Archers can fire across the map, but they suffer penalties for very long shots' ..or have I just never noticed that in the previous HOMMs?

Yep, the penalty range exists since H2 Iirc H3 added a penalty for shooting on units in the castle and H4 added the line of sight penalty (which was removed in H5).
From the IGN preview :
Depending on your play style, you will snag Blood points or Tears points that are added to a meter with Blood and Tears at opposite ends. As you progress through the game, you will have the opportunity to move from a neutral force, such as a Cleric, to something on either end of the spectrum -- a Confessor for players who take the path of Tears, or an Inquisitor down the path of Blood. Points are awarded from your actions on the overworld, such as whether or not you pursue a fleeing enemy (Tears if you don't, Blood if you do) and how you complete certain quests. Interestingly, they're also awarded for how you perform within each tactical battle.
(...)
The Confessor receives the Martyr ability, for example, which increases the defenses of other units if one perishes.

Maybe these are campaign heroes with helmets on. I doubt that campaign heroes will be without helmets in combat.
If this is not the case, that I agree that it is non-sense for both might and magic Inferno and Stronghold heroes to be humans.

No, they aren't. Remember Kujin from H5? Orcs look like humans since they are half-humans and half-demons...
Lore explains everything. Read it...
EDIT: It has already been said that campaign heroes will be without helms. Non-campaign heroes will have them.

Also, on each artwork leftmost hero is the neutral hero, middle one is the "blood" hero and rightmost is the "tear" hero
Well, I think they are Makes sense at least ^^
