Yes, there are a lot of hidden and unclear things indeed. A proper, comprehensive reveal will follow up later on (again, this was merely a tease).

However we're very interested to know the overall wishes & expectations of the community. You can suggest, brainstorm and discuss any idea or wish that you have for the mod. As devs it's difficult for us to know which idea will be liked by the community and which no. Just imagine/consider as if we're capable of implementing everything.
Ok, let's open Pandora's Box. What are possibilities to include Oasis in DoR? Nephretes was too busy lastly, to carry on working on his town. However, he is a member of MDT, so his friends may help him to finish this work. Of course, if he agrees.

How come this mod will be addition to original Heroes 3 complete game and not addition to VCMI?
Does this mean that MDT Forge and Tides od War will no longer get new updates on VCMI and instead all be integrated to DoR?
Thank you!

I'm afraid you might be annoyed by this kind of question but I have to ask nevertheless 
Could you maybe tell us when we are about to get some small new looks into this amazing project?

Well, I'm certainly glad for the enthusiasm!
Anyway, I've been working on several map objects these days, as well as finishing some hero portraits. The object shown here is a flaggable map object that increases the power of the allied heroes' Offense skill by a certain percentage (which will be determined upon testing).
As for a future proper update, later this month or next month. We don't want to quickly spoil major content before a proper trailer. However, I'll keep in touch with more of these minor updates. =p

I would say that house needs higher contras/stronger black to fi in.
Creative function and not too unbalancing. I would say about 10% rounded up is right.

Note: The Q&A is an April Fools joke.
Do you want news? The news are brought to you. We decided that showing graphics is too boring when providing updates, so we are switching to a purely text format (with some exceptions). We have prepared a small Q&A, which I thought is good to post now:
Q: Can you say something about the new towns?
A: Yes, work on the Romanian Town has started in full swing, which fits much better into our vision of lore than other options. For this reason, work on the Vori town was frozen. The Greenhouse was also considered, but the head of our project got offended.
Q: What about the new units?
A: Soon enough, you will see new creature recolors like you have never seen before, but only so much for now.
Q: Will there be support for RTX?
A: Yes, that's one of our priorities.
Q: Can you tell us about any other technical details?
A: Yes, all code (and even graphics) that we produce will be encrypted to prevent unauthorized attempts to modify it. I assure you that the difference in the size of the game files and the game's perfornance and speed is insignificant, comparable in length to AI turns in Heroes 5.
Q: Have you tried contacting people who have worked on HoMM games?
A: Actually, yes. Our project was approved by Erwan Le Breton, former creative director of Might and Magic Franchise. We have contact with him and sometimes we consult him to make sure that our project is, in terms of lore and design decisions, compliant with the latest canon of Might & Magic.
P.S. from me, Fire Paladin: On top of that, in order to honor the collaboration with Erwan le Breton, we are including him as a Necropolis hero who will specialize in Spiders, which will replace Skeletons from now on.
-------------------------------------------
Jokes aside, now onto more serious things. Work is progressing in more areas, including the Palace town. In the meantime, have this picture of a new variation of Seer's Hut:

You should add flickering light from the window and smoke from the hole above. Make frozen heroes feel that they will find there warmth and comfort. Maybe a keggle of cold (but not iced) beer near the building would be an appropriate decision.

What about implementing NFTs and blockchain technology into Heroes III? Is that on the table too?

Quote:
I think gamers don't get what a digital secondary market can bring to them. For now, because of the current situation and context of NFTs, gamers really believe it's first destroying the planet, and second just a tool for speculation. But what we [at Ubisoft] are seeing first is the end game. The end game is about giving players the opportunity to resell their items once they're finished with them or they're finished playing the game itself.
So, it's really, for them. It's really beneficial. But they don't get it for now.
Also, this is part of a paradigm shift in gaming. Moving from one economic system to another is not easy to handle. There are a lot of habits you need to go against and a lot of your ingrained mindset you have to shift. It takes time. We know that.

Necropolis is my favourite faction, I'll miss those skeletons. I wonder if it's their necromancy hording them into legions that have made them and Galthran so despised in the H3 world. If other factions are being introduced, why not just make a separate necromancer faction with spiders, bats, werewolves and grim reapers?

I'm skeptical about that this mod will reach the consistency of the HotA. With all those experiments with custom towns, you know. To be a real success it needs to almost blend with the classic game, it's exactly what the HotA team is seeking. I don't know if this is a popular trend anymore, for I understand that there aren't many of us who remember the original style of HoMM3, not mentiong the feeling of the original design. But what I see at the moment inspires confidence in the successful future of the project. Just don't go too "wogish", please.

We're specifically aiming for consistency with the canon of MM and the design philosophies of HoMM3 (as can be noticed both in the revealed content and project name). And of course, going too "wogish" is one thing we expressively avoid.
