I have a few suggestions, some may be repeats i haven't read the whole forum but i really like the game i played one time and had to buy. So i been thinking of other cool things for the game. I am new to it and i don't make games so these are just ideas but i think they would make the game something everyone will have to play. With a little strategy added to the already great fighting i think this game would be unforgettable.
1.Storyline:
A. Any kind of storyline would help to make this
game a true hit. There seems to be no story to the game you
just go in and hack and slash. Which i love but a story would
make it a lot better. It could just be a goal to be the
greatest knight,king,lord,etc or to dominate the whole world.
B. The three choices in the beginning about what
your father is should have more effect on game.
1. Noblemans son or easy: Start in your fathers
castle with nice amount of money, 15 troops, and can buy
goods.
2.Merchant son or medium: Start in town with
some money, a lot of goods, and you can recruit troops in
town.
3.Adventure son or hard: Start out in wilderness
with no money, 5 or 10 troops, small amount of goods.
2. Quest:
A. In general there needs to be more even if there
just simple things like the king or lord of a castle giving u like
a week to find someone looting a village under there control.
To going to a certain city and getting goods or even to guard
caravans to city's.
B.Rewards could be faction, money, weapons,
and/or goods
3.Castle/City/Town
A.Should be more strategic, meaning as in you
should have upgrades for defences and have
merchants/blacksmiths/farmers.
B.They should have residents in which come from
your renown and are used to recruit and upgrade your
castle.They would also be blacksmiths/merchants/farmers.
This would eliminate the randomness of finding soldiers if
your in a city with your faction.
C. City's and towns should be able to be captured
for your faction.
4.Blacksmith/Farmer/Merchant
A.Blacksmiths will produce weapons for your army.
Just go into city go to blacksmith and get swords for anyone
with skill it tells you to wait so long then all troops would
have swords or blunt weapons that way u can control what
your troops have.
B.Farmers would feed the people and soldiers in
your castles/city's/towns also giving u goods to trade.
C.Merchants would sell your goods and would pretty
much be a source of income.Like the tax almost.
D.Residents would be the people who live in your town
and would be your Blacksmiths/Farmers/Merchants.
