If I understand correct, Dynasty developing by the undepend company. Ubisoft just gave them licence on M&M brand.

Then why won't they "give" the licence to someone who actually cares about the franchise?
Yeah I know, silly notion...

When you look at Command and Conquer Rivals, you see that for that kind of games there is a potential market of tens of millions of sells, when Pc games are barely a few millions of sells...
But thanks to the profits generated by the mobile games, there is rooms for taking risks with pc games, so a potential CNC or MM pc game in the end...

"room for taking risks" hahaha
Oh wait, you are serious.
jajajajaaja
Oh well.
Actually there is one market for which fully featured non mobile games are developed, its the consoles. And hopefully PC gets scrap ports of console-developed titles with deliberately downgraded graphics so it doesn't make consoles look bad.
But consoles hate strategy games...

Well it "looks" better... but I can't take anything advertised with that music seriously. Battles are still autoresolve so no tactics involved. More mobile grind...

RTS game
It will be nice if the Development company of HOMM, make an Real- time strategy- RTS, using the Heroes 2 or 3. That will be the BEST RTS game ever. Because a famous RTS game- Age of Empires 2 has about 18 units. The player can use only the units of his empire. The mages( monks) can only heal( Cure) allies, and Convert enemies( Hypnotize).So a player has about 20 game changers.
At Warcraft 3, there are mages and heroes with about 70 magic spells, but the spells are NOT random. Some mages are better than others.Also the units are too big, large.
But in Heroes 2 the player has about 60 units and 60 magics. That mean, we have 120 game changers. Heroes 3 has even more game changers.
HOMM may become very easy a RTS game. You may use the "Researches" from Aoe 2, to make the city development. The main difference will be that a player can NOT destroy city. He can conquer, capture a city. The Magics must be again Random. When a player has a city, he will may buy new hero. You may see and use a Battlefield, similar to the battelfield of the game- "Age of Wonders-Shadow magic". It will allow other players to enter the battlefield to help his ally.
Also, during a combat, we will need to have a small window to see what happened at the game Map, arround the 2 heroes who participate in battlefield. So, if you see that other enemy heroes arrives near to the battlefield, you may flee, retreat from battle.
Every map must has many Ore mines,Gem mines,Sulfur mines, Sawmills. For every second a player own a city, he must receive some Gold. For every 30 seconds a player own a Sawmill, Ore, Gem, Crystal mine, he must receive 1 unit of that resource( or the player who own a Mine at 30 and 60 seconds, will receive resources).
The speed of the RTS game may be the slowest speed used in the Turn - based game HOMM- at the map and during a combat. The game must be slower than Aoe 2. During a battle, the Hero may cast spells every 1 minute( or 30 seconds).
The units may be at stacks.You may put a Limit of units in a stack- 100, 200 or 1000, so the computer can calculate the damage during a battle.
As a Real time strategy, HOMM will be much more interesting than all other RTS games.You will may replay a game, 1000 times, and every game will be different. At Aoe 2, the players use only few tactics, and quickly become Boring( the tactics are the same at every map. I am very good player there and beat many players at Gameranger, with other Nickname. I play it much more often than Heroes online, because Aoe 2 is about 20- 30 minutes long). At Warcraft 3, everybody know that the human race is best, because ot the towers and magics. The Graphic at W3 is awful. The units there looks like- Rhombs, Squares. They do not look like alive monsters.
RTS game- Heroes 2/ 3 will be the best RTS game ever.

From interview with Erwan Le Breton (thank you very much Acid Cave for this excellent Q & A with Erwan! )
Quote:
Q: The Really Big Question – are there any plans or chances for Heroes 8 in the foreseeable future?
A: Unfortunately, very little chance in the near future. The base costs for such a game would be too high when compared with the sale expectations, even with a 90+ metacritic rating and a massive support from the community. However, the IP’s popularity in China may tilt the balance in the right direction.
Q: It seems that with Heroes 7 we came as close to concluding the known Might & Magic storyline as possible, having now stories about almost all eclipses. What would you like to tell next? A story from the times of the Seventh Dragon maybe? or the story about what happened after Dark Messiah? Or maybe it's time to reboot the Might & Magic universe?
A: Honestly, we feel it’s about time to leave Ashan to rest and work on a new setting. Which means that Heroes Dynasty and Elemental Guardians are probably the last Ubisoft games set in Ashan.
That said, they will be “live” for a couple of years, and there’s still the possibility for a new project to be signed that presents strong arguments to use Ashan as its setting, so no official “obituary” to be expected yet.

1. He practically answered the age long question about the franchise post-Ubi take-over: "yes, we (Ubi) don't give a f*ck for the franchise as it generates not enough $". Even when you hire semi-indie developer with microscopic budget.
2. Nobody gives a f*ck for Ashan anymore...
So, nothing new in general. At least he admits that he was one of the people responsible for the failure Heroes 7 was.
PS: "This is indeed the “current” way. Might & Magic is a perfect fit for RPG and Strategy titles on mobiles.'- ElB. Sigh.
PS2: "The collaboration stopped because we had some disagreements on key elements of the Creative Vision" - about Nival. Oh, I see what you did there ElB...
PS3: I didn't know some people that left Ubisoft created Amplitude Studios. This shows some really talented people worked there.
Nevertheless a really, really good interview, probably the best thing to happen for the franchise in recent months (concept art, what might have been etc). Well, good in terms of information and content at least. In reality it practically confirms Heroes of M&M is dead.

Homm will never die. I mean maybe in name, but the idea will carry on. Maybe after a decade but it will eventually find a new name to live on. You know why?, because ideas never die.. ehem.. i mean iconic games never die.
