What angers me the most is that this thread shows “1K” posts, so I have to do the math, okay, so 20 posts per page, at 55 pages, wait, but the last one isn’t complete, so add those up…The WORST thing is that I can't change forum prefs for how many posts per page, so I have to click through.
the solution to this is very simple lets make another page of random postsWhat angers me the most is that this thread shows “1K” posts, so I have to do the math, okay, so 20 posts per page, at 55 pages, wait, but the last one isn’t complete, so add those up…
Very dumb system.
The best way to fix the issue of the past few pages of random and worthless posts is to contribute something meaningful to the conversation. Did you have anything you wanted to say in that regard?the solution to this is very simple lets make another page of random posts
It's a personal issue - the following was said a year ago:I'd rather not continue more pages of that conversation, but wow, how hard is it to realize that people often use the word "scam" (or grift) in an accusation of general dishonesty and not necessarily denoting the actual crime...
lol @AxiosXiphos all you do is derail threads by tone policing people. Maybe you should engage with ideas you find interesting and leave the ones you dislike alone. You don't see me coming into threads about how "Bannerlord is good, actually" and having a cry.
You aren't incorrect - I do tone police. It's tough to be part of a community though in which it feels like the whole world is against you all the time... it makes you prickly.

You should know above anyone that this thread has been pretty productive. You've argued (poorly, and with bad arguments) in defense of Taleworlds, and although I do think you have absolutely no leg to stand on, there has been constructive debate. Whether or not you agree with the original premise is irrelevant to the fact that there is quite a "rail" to it, seeing as the overwhelming amount of posters agree with it.That assumes there was a rail for this thread be derailed from.
Precisely. I have played thousands of hours on Hearts of Iron IV and Europa Universalis IV (which are more expensive with Paradox's DLC policy), compared to Bannerlord. The only thing you can do on Bannerlord to make it playable past 50 hours in the slightest is Bannerlord Online, which is now dead. Once overhaul/multiplayer mods are able to be created, then we will be in the clear. Until then, it's just a deadweight. We expected a whole lot more than what we got.Based on OP calculations I would say that from a wide perspective there is really a lot more we as consumers can ask for. Actually we have, but unfortunately to no avail. Here is an interesting thing for all of you to consider though: how many hours have you spent playing this game and how many have you spend playing games with a similar price tag? The biggest argument here is that value is not measured in hours but more in the quality of the game, right? If TaleWorlds really have so much money then they should at least put a little more effort to speed up the process, this is what they owe to their consumers.. Especially after all the deadlines which have not been met and so on.

While I accept that part of TW's customer base bought BL only for MP, you are a minority. SP engages players much longer. The review I posted earlier, in this thread, suggested new players (non-Warband vetrans) commonly played BL for 200-300 hours. That's a reasonable playtime for the price. However, I also want more to move my 500+ hours up to 2,000-3,000, because I'm invested and greedy.The only thing you can do on Bannerlord to make it playable past 50 hours in the slightest is Bannerlord Online, which is now dead.
Look, I don't know how you were educated, but here in America we have this thing called freedom of speech

I have considerable sympathy for the plight of MP only customers, even though I have never played MP. I had assumed that MP would be finished sooner than SP due to the MP only Beta, historical 2016/17 launch intentions that could only have been MP and the number of missing scenes and features in SP. However, that clearly isn't the case. TW servers seem unstable and crash-prone despite low numbers of players. There are clear problems with MP that TW must resolve before making custom servers publicly available - to which they stated their commitment in their formal response to a recent Open Letter from the MP modding community.
As mexxico stated in this thread, TW are not dishonest in their intentions. They are slow. You know this or you would not linger on this forum. MP will be delivered although it may be delivered too late to achieve the player base, which the MP community wanted.
In short, I understand your frustration, however you continually generalise your situation to the whole customer base and make false statements about the game. It's disappointing that extradition hasn't taught you the error of your ways.
I haven't said that and don't think that. I quoted the sentence, which I objected to in my post.I find it strange that you think SP-Players have nothing to complain about.
I thought you refered multiple times that SP is fine and only MP is subject to deserve the "grift-discussion". If thats not the case it was not my intention to lay words in your mouth. ?I haven't said that and don't think that. I quoted the sentence, which I objected to in my post.
I've never believed grift appropriate. Lot's of things need to be fixed and improved still in SP, but it's more advanced than MP appears to be based on player feedback.I thought you refered multiple times that SP is fine and only MP is subject to deserve the "grift-discussion".

There hasn't been a rail for the entirety of this discussion. The "rail" is the issues with BL, as the point of the game being a grift has never been the point really argued about, which has been broken many times before. Conversation can happen without a rail.You should know above anyone that this thread has been pretty productive.
