Speaking as someone who is proud to have spent his last two years with M&B and its many mods, I have to say that while WB is a huge improvement over the original, there is just one thing that isn't the same - total conversion mods for single player are almost thoroughly lacking, with the exception of Prophesy of Pendor and Brytenwalda (Which, most of the time in my computer, refuses to run correctly), that is.
Solid & Shade? Abandoned.
The Last Days? Not going to happen.
Eagle and the Radiant Cross? On indefinite hiatus.
Expanded Gameplay? Chel is gone.
Gang of Glasgow? Not ported.
1866? Multi-only.
Fury of Odin and Roots of Yggdrasil? Somehow the creator just sort of gave up.
Not to downplay such great mods as Vikingr and Mount and Musket/Napoleonic Wars, but to me the heart and soul of M&B has always been the single-player campaign. It was as though M&B has gone through a transition of sort between two eras of modding while I was here. While I can say I'm happy to have seen the best of both worlds, something isn't quite the same.
Now that my rant is over, back on topic: I rate Talera very, very highly in my mods list. It's like Prophesy of Pendor's little, adorable and talented brother who has tremendous potential yet never really had the chance to fully realize said potential. If this era's prime modders - Caba'drin and the Diplomacy team, for instance - could take up the helm and take over those projects that have unfortunately died over the past years and turning them into WB glory, suffice to say I'm willing to pay to see it happen.
But of course, until then we can only dream.
