    Back after a year. Game is completely broken(un modded).

    Quickly found out entering Myzae crashes my 5700xt GPU. I have 412 hours in bannerlord early access and it perhaps crashed on me 5 times. Ive had 5 crashes in the past hour. Anyone else having this issue? Installed last night and verified files this morning.

    What makes Bannerlord dull

    Even battle-wise. I don't like the new point-and-shoot arcade-y archery. I liked when I had to compensate gravity and bad stats, getting a feel for the potential arc, last time I tried it felt like a shotgun. After so many hours playing the original engine and how it was tuned I just have a very uncanny valley feel when playing the sequel. Like the inconsistent familiarity makes it worse when something deviates from what you'd normally expect. But maybe it's just me, I'll probably give it another go once the game is more ironed out.

    PS: The waxy faces, robotic blinking speed and exaggerated body shapes and sudden expressions still kind of creep me out a bit. Hope some of this can be tweaked or ameliorated. The shaders are good, I think it's a combination of art direction and geometry.
    Lol, i have to disagree on the "uncanny valley" feel. Coming from 3d art this isnt even close to touching the uncanny valley. Its just bad artwork plain and simple. You can make far better characters using free software these days. And the paid ones.... (ex. character creator 4) can make some really next level stuff in no time at all. Pretty sure most this was made back when we still had to texture everthing by hand.

    What makes Bannerlord dull

    In short, it's nothing more than a battle generator. After you've fought a few battles, it gets dull, not surprisingly. Warband was a bit thin on the non-combat aspects, but Bannerlord has managed to remove most of what little was there. In exchange, we got the ability to raise a successor, it you've got the patience to stick with a long, boring campaign long enough for that to matter.
    This is really a good point and huge miss by the developer. I wonder what percentage of players actually finish a multi generation game or if the developers ran any test during the alpha stages? I couldnt manage to play that long if i was hyped up on adderall and redbull. The game just simply doesnt have the content to engage an audience on this level.

    Argue for beauty [vote Available for "Sanala" City]

    I don't like the idea of a cultural and economic center being restricted to a certain city. Its restrictive and feels like a step backwards. There certainly needs to be work in this area. Unique assets are a must in 2020. I would propose a system where the faction leader could declare a city his capital which would grant certain bonuses to development, income, etc.

    Playerbase shrinking rapidly -10% in the last month

    That's not contradictory at all. Just because most players prefer single player games, it doesn't mean they play the same game for 5 years, which would be a typical timeframe for a MMO player.
    There are exceptions of course, for example a MMO that allows lots of solo PvE. But this is just logical considering they are GAAS, and it's still kind of multiplayer.
    But nobody is going to play the single player campaign of Mass Effect 3 continually for 5 years...
    I have no clue whats typical for most but your view on the "typical gamer" doesnt suit me. My three favorite games are kerbal space program, crusader kings 2 and skyrim. All are around 10 or more years old. One is still in active development (ksp), ck2 just exited development a year ago, and skyrim, along with creation club content.... my gosh the replayablity due to mods....

    SP can bring a lot of money into your bank once.
    MP can give you waaaaaaaay more over time.
    Take a look at LoL, CS:GO, WoW and GTA5

    SP may be better for players but MP is where the money is at, all a developer or business actually cares about
    Cant argue with that. Rockstars success with gta v online changed the SP market.... in a horrible way for a gamer like me, who doesnt fancy mp online. Honestly, its not the online that bothers me... its the cost associated. I practice capitalism.... though id like to play it, its simply not worth the cost. Im sure u can find horror storries of kids spending thousands on their parent credit cards playing these games. Recently read a story about a guy who spent his whole inheritence on fifa online.

    Lol, all single players have a short life cycle, is just the life of games.

    Number will increase after big patches, full game release, or a good mod release.

    90% of the players wont play more than 1 campaign on vanilla (and less with the actual lack of replayability due poor rpg sandbox components)
    Non sense, according to sony atleast. Leaked data from 2020 shows gamers prefer single player games and spend more time offline. Quick google search will lead you to hundred of articles on the data. Unless of course you have data from hundreds of millions of players you would like to share.....

    Earnings Nerfed too hard?

    Hover over your income, it breaks down income and expenses in a tooltip. After my latest conquest im pulling in 25k a day and only own 3 cities. However, most my garrisons are empty as the last few sieges were especially bloddy. Before i held one city and one castle with a max garrison. Like you, i was supplementing my income hunting bandits, winning tournanments, trading. Once my caravans got going i was able to bring in a small daily profit.

    How Active are you in Bannerlord?

    I quit for several months before just recently picking up the game again. It does feel like the game is starting to come together. I now feel like we've actually entered beta. Atleast most the traits are implemented....

    I just don't get TW priorities.

    While my armor protects me fine in combat. I've noticed my companions, fully armored, usually take the same # of hits from the ai in a tournament to drop vs. Un armored guys. I have a few guys wearing top of the line gear and a recruit will mirk them.

    The new map is not good enough in terms of graphics and texture, and it is not beautiful.

    Please. I tried to play warband two days ago. Seeing how flat and bland the map was i immediately quit. I was using reshade and enb too.

    Buff the spear and pikes!

    The problem right now is that thrusting spears do too little compared to swords, and axes.


    Thrusting remains difficult to use and rather unwieldy.

    In relation to swords, in real combat spears were often the main weapon and swords were used more as a backup. I would like to see Bannerlord head in that direction.


    Thrusting speed needs a buff, as does damage.
    Spears were often used as a main weapon because pesants were so poor many times they used pitch forks. A stick with a point on it is effective and extremely cheap. A well fashioned sword. Those could only be afforded by the wealthy. The most effective army ever -- the roman army -- main weapon was the gladius- a short sword. The huns.... recurve bow. The english... long bow. No one counquered half the world with spears. They we a cheap weapon wielded mostly by poor peasants as other weapons became romanticized with knighthood and chivalry.

    Do ladders work better right now than siege towers?

    I had a battle yesterday where the defenders didnt directly defend the walls. My guys would climb the siege tower- one at a time, run to the enemy, and be killed before the next guy could climb the ladder. It continued 1 at a time until i retreated and used ladders.

    DRM Free release

    It's not a realistic point of view though. Copyrighted material is ultimately, and rightfully owned by their creators. We don't live in a happy dandy world where people give each others money for the fun of it. How do you think copyrighted material come into existence? Work ain't a hobby. Doesn't matter what you produce, you sure as hell hope your workspace will do good and be protected against foul play and not have your production be pirated or copied without any law protecting it, and potentially leading to you getting booted due to no income because everyone just take the cheapest option to get what you've invested in developing and coming up with.

    As I previously said, it's not realistic for Steam and GOG to encourage their users to use a free game copy over at their competitor, nor is it realistic to imply a for-profit game company would just hand you a free copy, when they'd hope you'd purchase the game twice instead if you really, really want a copy of the game on another platform. The implications of doubling their hundreds of thousands already purchased game copies may be large aside from the economical issue, as it will also give hackers and those banned a second chance in the multi-player, unless TW spend a lot of investment on making sure no-one will exploit such a socialistic good-will thing.

    If I bought a physical game disc in the past, I'd take it for granted that I'd only receive that copy on that medium. I wouldn't expect a free Steam key or GOG key, even if those alternative mediums exist, nor if I forgot the cd-rom in a move, damaged it or otherwise forgot where it was, or if I gave the multiplayer key to all my friends leading to me not being able to get a stable multiplayer connectivity.
    I was never arguing the economical logic. Where your initial point really failed, and where the fallacy truly was, is that you DO NOT own a game when you purchase it. You purchase a license to use that software. More like buying a life long pass to a theme park than purchasing a car.

    What i am at issue with is this "free copy" argument. I paid a ton of money to game game on pc and expect certain benefits for that. One of those involves me being able to keep two copies on my hardrive especially if a game has thousands of mods and multiplayer. Also, if you have ever modded a game, having a second copy is a god send to debugging.

    DRM Free release

    The argument shows its fallacy when you begin using it towards any game. I own this game here, thus I should also own the game there is not a sensible path for a for-profit-company. Just let me walk out with another jar of milk today since I paid for a jar of milk yesterday from the grocery shop.
    Huh? The argument " i own game at point A i should own game at point B" is a perfecrly sound argument. I would argue almost irrefutable. Now, the real truth- copyright law heavly favors developers over consumers in America.

    My dissapointment grows. Game still feels barren.

    >There's no such thing as right to rule.
    Yes there is. ALL kingship stems from divintiy. (This certainly involved sending out priest, musicians, etc to spread the righteousness of ones deeds.) In laymens terms, you can view the 'right to rule' as having supporters. You cant take a throne -AND KEEP YOUR LIFE- if your subjects dont acknowledge 'your right to rule'. Even Alexander the Great fell to the blade of an assassin. In any case, since all kingship stems from religion. Only someone viewed as god's (or whatever diety) chosen may sit the throne.

    As to the gaming aspect... im under the influence its little things like such that made the game so unique. If you dont care for the role play style that made the first game a success than there is other titles out their perfectly suited for you.

    HOLY JESUS modding tools beta

    well sure they needed some small founds after all that time investing in to the engine but ive heard from other sources that they did not so its just speculations. Personally i think its both and they wanted to give it out earlier to also please the fans and get some feedback in the process. I mean only by the release to me as an old W&B fan even if i was worried that this sequel was going to be another bad sequel ala Dragon age 2 type of even if it wasnt that bad but still....To me TW shown that they where really on the right track and knew who they where and what made their product special. So with that said they where on the right track then the masses screwed it a little by wanting this and that but hey thats opinions to and it takes time to get to good balance spots as we can see in all games
    I can agree on that. Im certainly 100% pessamisticly speculating. 2020 has been a bad year....
