[Game] Mount and Blade (AWESOME)

[Birdy]

Has anyone tried this game yet? It's one of the best RPGs ever, And I NEVER play RPGs. The game Is basically Oblivion, but with fewer quests, and MUCH better combat. I'll see if I can get an uploaded picture on here... But for now, see for yourselves.

A WILD SEARCH BUTTON HAS APPEARED!?


Just kidding. I've been playing this game since about .100 (when it was only 12 dollars) and have seen it progress all the way to what it is now. Very awesome, if only they had more resources to take it even farther though.

 

[Pharnakes]

Ehh? Tthought they had paradox as the publisher, and they were being fairly generous in funding?

 

[Sgt.Rock]

Manpower, etc. If I recall correctly, it started out with just one guy and his wife and even now its only up to 4 (I think?)

The lack of a story severely cripples the fun of Mount and Blade. It gets boring fairly quickly.

 

[Shadrach]

Yeah, used to play this quite a lot, even bought it. But just too much boring grind to level up, killing stupid river pirates gets old after a while... and the Black Knights and soldiers were just too hard.

So I gave it up, but maybe it's been improved now. The lack of quests or interesting characters were a major drawback.

I think they have 6-8 now. They got a real office a while back and have been steadily hiring new developers since. One of them was an M&B modder.

 

[Pharnakes]

Plenty of mods to add in quests, story lines ect, ect. Vannila m&b is not so much a rpg as a simulator, but like I said, plenty of mods to turn it into just about anything you can think of.

Damn this game can be crazy addicted, have been playing it for 24 hours in 2 days. I guess you either love it or hate it.
Worst part is when I go to bed I'm dream about it. It's like the line of reality and game are fading out.

[Mahnsikir]

New version is out; 9.60

And according to the devs this will be the last beta release, woo so if youve thought about buying it, get it now before the price jumps.

 

[Crusher]

Damn, just when I was doing allright a new patch comes out. :\

 

[Crusher]

I met myself?

 

[Cuddles]

I think that its a bug, or it could be alternative reality?

 

[Crusher]

I think the game is trying to replace me with an NPC

btw, I have a 94 member army and 2 castles each with a village and a seperate village. All that because I joined Swadia and became their marshall, giving me the option to start campaings. Which I've been doing non stop

Watch out Crusher, you're gonna get sucked in to your own reality

 

[Crusher]

Woops started a civil war in Swadia. I'm a Swadian rebel now
