Damn this thing.... COMON TALEWORLDS we need more info, blogs, dev diaries, GAMEPLAY VIDEOS!!!!
WHO THE HELL IS YOUR MARKETING TEAM, you are actually losing money by doing this. ITS BEEN MORE THAN 2 YEARS
Because now only people who have played MB know of this, and actually even most of those dont know it.
PARADOX announced Hearts of Iron IV and the next day they started doing videos, dev diaries, etc etc. Do what your old boss does!
Hype is at the minimum.
DO YOU WANT TO MAKE MONEY TALEWORLDS??!1 If you want it, do what i said.
AND remeber that unlike MB 1 and Warband, Bannerlord HAS COMPETITION of games released with the same setting and gameplay. (like that new Life is Feudal).
There is absolutely no excuse for the lack of news, Taleworlds is much bigger than it was when MB was released.
It won't lose them money, giving people something to read/look at every week or so doesn't make them more likely to buy the game, and as long as there is plenty of publicity in the few months before release plenty of people will know about it. If anything, people would get less excited, knowing they will see more stuff every week. The release of the game has less novelty appeal because players feel they have already been given access to it, and know a lot of the features.
Taleworlds don't need to attract a strong fan base eagerly waiting for the game, they already have it.
Life is Feudal is not competition for Bannerlord, it is not the same genre. It is based in a similar time frame, but it is an MMO, where the principle part of the game is building and crafting. If Bannerlord has competitors then they are War of the Roses/Vikings and Chivalry, neither of which are as popular as Warband.
I'm very excited about Bannerlord, and I think if Taleworlds are comfortable about their level of publicity then there is nothing to worry about.
