As any of you who have seen my other threads would know, I love this game. I seriously recommend it to anyone that likes medieval style games. It has a great modding community. overall, definitely one of my favorite games of all time. Edit: So [censored] hyped for bannerlord!

I agree - the M&B series is awesome! The graphics aren't incredible (they're not bad though, for such a small team), but the gameplay is unlike any other game I've played. I think the thing I really like about it is that there is no magic system or anything - just a real-life style of combat. I also like how, even though it takes place in a fictional realm, it's strongly based upon medieval Europe. There's no fictional pantheon either - they just refer to 'God', which is cool, since it allows for anyone of any faith or religion to place their God in there.

Plus, the combat system is just incredible. I love being able to charge with my cavalry at a full infantry and just mow down the enemy.. and the castle invade/defend system is really fun to play too.

I honestly wish it was more like total war with you playing too.

I think it would be cool for the next game to have ship combat perhaps, and a little bit more of an army-like feel. I kind of like how Warband allows you the opportunity to become King of Calradia. I mean, in the first game, I helped Lady Isola of Suno claim the throne of Swadia, and I became the Marshal of her army - I led Swadia in conquest over all of our enemies, so it's now just us and the Rhodoks coexisting together. I wish the ability to become king was in the first game, because I basically have the same role over most of the 'Empire of Swadia' as I call it.
