Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord

If you ask about story or dialogs I would say its horrible but we don't need it. Mount And Blade was always a sandbox, a giant one and we can do what ever we want in it. With mods you can create a bandit party and terrorized empires, you can join a caravan to trade and when it is attacked, you can fight to the death to protect all you have got. Become a lord merry a nomadic horse archer princess and conquer the world or marry the emperer granddaughter and built a economical empire subdue your enemies with bribes to their lords. Don't miss it, Its still one of the most played games in the world and it released in 2020.

The game updated the graphics and added significant improvements compared to Mount & Blade. But that is where it ends. The caladaria story is old and totally uninteresting. All the hours I spent on Mount & Blade where because the myriad of mods available. Some where better than the original game. Banner has limitted mods and currently only 4 total conversions. There isn't much to play. They really need to put out a playable DLC that isn't caladaria.

I have about 30 hours in this game on Steam, and just bought a GOG copy as well. This game is worth the price. I put a lot of hours into Warband and it's DLC and this game improves on them in nearly every way possible. Even early access, almost of the flaws with warband have been improved in Bannerlord. I highly recommend it, even while in development.

It crashes for me every 15 minutes or so. So you end up doing the same thing over and over again, depending when you last saved it. Sometimes, it crashes at the end of a battle so you don't even get the chance to save during the battle. The game itself would be fun, but it simply is not playable in its current form. I was waiting for the bugs to be worked on before buying, and given the price now and that it's been over two years on release I assumed it would now be ok. Unfortunately, it simply doesn't work. The in-game general bugs i can handle, but not the constant crashing. It would be a fun game, so I hope they can fix it.

Tried the game. Tutorial was bugged. Started a free roam game. Can't even run down villagers on my horse. If the devs can't even bother to ensure the tutorial works properly, I am not bothering with their game. From the reviews I was expecting a lot more from this.
