Mount and Blade Bannerlord is one head itching game when it comes to an official release date, and a true gem among all strategy role playing games. The possibilities of relationships, good and bad deeds, and character development are endless -.- . But!!!! But is this game going to reallllyyyy be as big a success as it is worth??? This game has taken the creators an immense amount of time to make it perfect! Like I am talking MULTIPLE times they pushed the game's release date back to increase the players experience graphic, mechanical, and story line wise. Taleworlds is taking no stops this time around with quality and making it glitch free. This is great! Wonderful! But is it receiving the praise it is worth?This game is a game for the pc players that like intense, in depth combat, and game control. This game is for the somewhat computer literate and knowledgeable audience. So basically us computer guys. What about the rest of the audience? The general public? This is a selective game just like the previous games, it will sell a lot like the others, but I don't see this all over the internet like say call of duty or assassins creed or for god sakes Pokemon go! Of course not, and I don't expect it to be that big. I would like to see it be like Sid Miers Civilization that went to IPhone app and PlayStation and everything else. Sid Miers Civilization was easy to control and lots of the general audience like that. Ok ok now I'm just being harsh.... This game is big of course but is it only big to us hardcore followers of the game? And can this game become the most popular pc game out there? Well lots of the rating sites are giving them fabulous scores of 4.8 out of 5 on kitguru they are at least. Along with high scores on all others, and it is hard not to rate it high, since it is an amazing game. The only problem is will the game pertain to a bigger audience than the hard core PC gamer? How many people truly know about the series?
I want to see this series get big! On PlayStation and Xbox! Make the game go viral instead of just the dedicated bunch of computer guys ( still damn good) but why not? Well we will see if they ever expand and take this amazing game to everyone the same way some of the really popular online games are today. Who knows, maybe even the less educated short attention span person will one day increase brain cells due to everyone around them playing a game that might require a bit of strategic planning! No more derp herps :^%2
6 New Board Games coming To Bannerlord!
New board game features will be coming to Mount&Blade 2 Bannerlord. 6 Board Games to be exact! Board Games will pose a new way for players to earn money in Mount&Blade, as opposed to the old method of wining tournaments in Warband, or fighting some poor sorry drunk in Fire&Sword for a mere 50 denars; or killing him for his sword as a reward to pawn! No; now for those who think they can put their mental skills to the test, with a sack full of denars on the table, can do so. I am looking forward to this new feature, with possibility of maybe even small side quests that will raise your relations with a town, lord, or lady. Such as in Warband were winning the tournament raised your relations with that city.In fact its not only the board game that is changing but the culture of each district is different with the Tavern in each village full of musicians and.... well ill just share with you what Taleworlds had to say -
"The tavern seen here shows how lively and appealing scenes have become in Bannerlord, with NPCs sitting, drinking, interacting with one another and going about their business. In this tavern, there is a musician playing and a game host in the corner, with whom you can bet money on the custom board games which we have introduced. Each of the game's six cultures has their own boardgame, originally designed but inspired by real historical games. These can also be played with ladies and lords, as well as other NPCs in the game for role-playing and diplomatic purposes.
Siege Weapons in Bannerlord
News on new siege weapons that are going to be available in Bannerlord-
Taleworlds has said the siege weapons shown in new footage are all fully controllable by players and AI, and their placement is controlled via a deployment screen. You can change orders of their placement and movement during battle, which is important if you’ve made a mistake about the terrain, which will be much more varied this time around.
Strategy appears to play a huge roll in Mount&Blade 2 Bannerlord, more than ever before. No more just charging into battle. You will be forced to stratagize this time around. Castle and villages are now integrated and will be managed from the same menus. Players and AI alike will modify and expand their settlements, and players will need to make work assignments to pursue construction and production projects. These new updates explain the years of waiting for Bannerlord, and will prove worth while.
Bannerlord A bit of facts about the game
Mount and Blade 2 Bannerlord is the new, upcoming medieval action role-playing game, developed by "TaleWorlds Entertainment." The game was announced in 2012. It is a prequel to Mount & Blade: Warband. The game's release date is scheduled for some time in 2016. The game is set 200 years before Mount & Blade: Warband. It takes place during the decline of the Calradian Empire and occurs during the formation of the Kingdoms that appear in the previous games. The Calradian Empire and its downfall are analogous to the Roman Empire's fall and the formation of the early European kingdoms. The armor, weapons and architecture are all inspiration from 600 to 1200 A.DImprovements
Mount and Blade 2 Banerlord's graphics are going to be overhauled with new shaders, better character models, and improved ai! - Artificial intelligence- Most of the improvements are being made based off of player comments and critiques of Mount and Blade Warband! We all know that there was a list the size of Santa's of problems. The most annoying one to me was your troops blocking your path and not being able to move thru them! But now we will be able to stroll right thru our lines of men without worry of being but humped in some corner by your 30+ Nord Worriers during a castle siege... True story -.-
Factions
"The factions in Bannerlord are ancestral to those of Warband, and will have some of their descendant faction's traits." There will also be some minor bandit and Calvary factions that you can join during your exploration of Imperial Calradia!- Calradic Empire is where the Players find themselves involved at the beginning of the game. The Empire's military has been honed throughout the generations and is a force to be reckoned with, employing cataphracts and spearmen along with archers to devastating effect.
- Vlandians are a feudal state that specializes in heavy cavalry.
- Sturgians inhabit the northern woodlands and specialize in producing axe-men and swordsmen.
- Aserai inhabit the less inhabited deserted lands of Calradia and use footmen and horsemen in battle.
- Khuzaits are a "steppe tribe?" and make heavy use of horse archery.
- Battanians are famed for their marksmanship as archers throughout Calradia. This Faction seems to remind me of the Nords and would be very beneficial in defending your castle's during a siege!
