what to do first in playing mount and blade game, is there any guide or advice for beginners?

Try the old Taleworlds forums: https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php?forums/mount-blade-warband.164/

Also I recall there are some really good guides written about the various games and DLC mods (e.g. Viking) - I believe you can get to those from those forums as well, or they should be pinned to one of their websites/wikis.

Thanks a lot for the info! Yeah, the TaleWorlds forum does seem like a solid place to dig up guides, especially for stuff like the Viking Conquest DLC. I’ll definitely check it out soon, really appreciate the heads-up!
