I just hope that they are already painted and are ready to go....

Yes. They are better to be prepainted, else I wont buy them.

i prefer that this game dont have miniatures, maybe one for the mage, but for all cards...., this would be bad for the game, because a expesive game lost many players.

I'm hoping that the miniatures will be optional and maybe for a different version of the game. I would hope they're made out of plastic so I can afford them though.

I think these will be more of an accessory than anything else. Much like the extra spellbooks, you only need to buy them if you want them. I also doubt they will be making minis for anything other than the Mages, although I could be wrong. I'm pretty sure it would be extremely expensive to produce minis for every card, which means it would be expensive for us to purchase them.

It is just to be cool (to not say AWESOME!). Instead of a card, you have a 3D model of your mage.

I know the price of prepainted minis has gone through the roof; It'll be interesting to see how that plays out here.
I can take the fun out of anything. It's true; here, look at this spreadsheet.

There probably is a bit of practicality involved also, the current mage cards and their zone can get a little buried in cards, the miniature, depending on base size could alleviate the clutter slightly.
