*month later* Here it is, guys! As promised!

Why are you guys talking in a 3 year old thread?

Because Bannerlord is timeless. What's the difference between 3-week old and 3-year old thread.

Jokes aside, someone may have returned because he had a comment input on the thread topic (as individual devblogs focus on different things).

If they don't want to advertise it, why sell it? It makes little sense and advertising doesn't need to be hype.

Well, you still have the safe option to ignore EA now and get the game after full release.
They even said in one devblog they use computers to run the game on its own and see how the economy and kingdoms fare. It will uncover lots of bugs and "features" players wouldn't be happy about but it still won't cover everything. More likely when there will be input of many players and the game is deeper than it shows.

Oh boy... me vs 2 high level bandits - "I surrender unconditionally!"

FTFY
I am hurt just a little so I'll survive, the game is soon upon us.

Looks good. I don't really care about fashion so I am satisfied with anything as long as I can comment, to be honest.

Also, I hope everyone stayed safe during the earthquake.

In short, there's always ignorant people who are unhappy no matter what.

It didn't even release as 1.0 (nor early access) and already, there's "problem solved, case closed = it's a fail" people.

And for one, in Warband, morale was a thing of campaign map that was mirrored into battle map. Quite simple morale system to boot. As Worldsprayer said, this here seems much more dynamic.

Unlikely.  I'm already 64.

I wasn't talking about physical form.

Not cool guys, not cool. Literally war broke out, tension with US goes up and you run your mouths when people are with their family. In a war, one never knows. Moreso when one didn't experience one (like you here). You can neglect your family all you want but don't command others to do the same. When it's ready, it's ready. So easy there, you will grow out of your young impatience and ignorance one day too, maybe.

I imagine there's also tension from the sudden w.a.r.

"Every Full Moon" would've sounded SO MUCH BETTER. That's opportunity gone, forever. AWOOoooo~!

Is it me or the horse actually bucked??

Yep, saw that too and thought: "Maybe the horse kicked enemy behind his arse?" Like, seriously... don't stand right behind a horse. Wonder if that really is a feature in the game though.

Saw another video and it's just jumping over very low obstacle.

Spearmen. I can't imagine how it would work but I think there could be getting ready stance for them and then just direct their spears toward the cavalry in the initial clash. For them to need to make additional action of swinging the spear to damage cavalryman doesn't make them that much effective as it would in real world.

Seems I was wrong, at least partially as I saw that ready stance used with cavalry only (and only the player) so far. Basically, aim spear forward and run until you hit someone (no need to thrust).

Another thing I like, even shield on the soldier's back protects against arrows. Can't remember if it was a thing even back in previous games but it's a nice little detail. In that case, as someone earlier spotted a soldier wielding two shields (one on his back, second in his hand), that makes much more sense... "I'm a tank!"

Everything New in Mount and Blade 2 - Gamescom 2019

2:57 - I like how the NPC on horse crashes into your horse and immediately swaps spear with a sword.

Did someone win in the election of castle owner? Saw two videos and always "Someone else won the ownership despite main character's majority support." Sounds like scripted for the Gamescom so people don't see castle ownership yet?
