Immersive masterpiece, full of choices
M&B (this part of the series) gave me some of the most profound experiences a game can offer. Its living, moving and changing world is absolutely unique and your possibilities to interact are extremely diverse. M&B is one of the very few games where you are not the center of the game's world - your actions have not much influence - especially at the beginning you are strifing to survive, get enough loyal followers, buy food and gather loot. It's a merciless world you'll enter. Later in the game, when you lead your own army of hunderts of warriors, knights and bowmen into big battles, your actions count. But up to this point, you'll have to work hard to achieve it. The wonderful thing in this game is that it's enormously motivating to work on your medieval "career". You decide which way you'll go: Do you live the life of an outlaw, raiding trade caravans, looting peasant villages? Do you earn your money as a hard boiled mercenary in the service of one of the kingdoms? Will you be granted the chance to access nobility yourself, wearing a banner and eventually getting a castle for yourself? Or do you just wander the wide lands, helping farmers and lords and killing bandits and pirates? It's up to you. And all the consequences you have to take on yourself. And there are many... The game features the best battle system I know, as it creates an intense medieval war-feeling: You'll lead your troops into battle, riding or marching side on side with your men, giving them (simple) commands and fight with them. The horse mechanics are wonderful - you really feel the impact a heavy warhorse has on the enemy line, if you storm into them. After all, M&B is a fantastic game, with a "realistic" (no magic here) medieval world where you are an unimportant nobody at the beginning - but can become everything if you dare to try it. And if you don't: The game develops itself even without your participation - the realms are constantly at war and borders change... a fantastic experience!
