It was in the discord apparently, which Callum deleted all his messages. Hopefully someone else with a better memory than me could clarify. I'm not a member of the discord though I know someone who is and apparently saw the message from Callum. There was also a couple of others who mentioned in other posts on these forums though unfortunately I can't recall where those are.
I don't know, hopefully it is. If it helps it's not listed on the steam page as being excluded.
I don't have the beta and I would be grateful if someone else could confirm or deny this but I have been watching videos and streams about the beta and have yet to notice any slings.
I find the concept cool, and I like the way the picture is drawn, intentionally or unintentionally, it gives it a dreamlike appearance to me.
Hopefully all of that's included but I would think marriage would almost certainly be included. We'll find out in a week.
Don't wear a cape when using a shield? They probably won't fix it for shields nor weapons for that matter but they might for armour.
I would think it'd be easier to disable the cloth physics, depends on what settings we can change, or just simply not use the items where the clipping is worst and most noticeable.
Even though it is commonly used as such magic is not a defining element for the fantasy genre. The setting for Mount & Blade though influenced by real life history is a fictional setting and not based off of reality and therefore falls into the realm of imaginative fiction, and since you would be hard pressed to classify it as either horror or science fiction or any of the other it would be classified as fantasy. Since it lacks the usual distinguishing traits of typically fantasy settings, like magic and otherworldly creatures, it’s called Low Fantasy.
I'm guessing that if there are dogs we encounter them in villages as pets and not on the battlefield with spiked collars. Then again I remember they were in Viking Conquest but I never really bothered with them so I don't know what you can do with them and they could very well have been fighting dogs. Oh, and the animation for dogs in Bannerlord is much better than before. Link to Dev Blog.
I would advise you go back and watch any Gamescom footage where the player looks at their inventory. In the centre of the inventory screen up near the top there are two icons, one a helmet and the other a bycocket (Robin Hood's hat), the one on the right is the casual wear and from what I can tell is worn when in castles and town centres. So unless they have removed it since, it's not a rumour but a confirmed feature.
This one is definitely my new favourite, your hard work paid off!
