But what games should we play?Guys, they have until June 30 to make a full release [last day of Q2 2022]. Just wait till then. Do something else, like playing good released games for a change.
And then come back to read Callum's philosophical article on the relativity of time.
Team Fortress 2. Unlike Bannerlord it's a fun and challenging game, but you'll still feel at home because you get to infinitely wait for Valve to do stuff.But what games should we play?

Shadow of Mordor... I have it but never had time to go deep in the campaign though...But what games should we play?
A very fun game - but doesn't really stand up to a second play-through. So you get 50-60 hours out of it then probably never touch it again.Shadow of Mordor... I have it but never had time to go deep in the campaign though...
To be honest with you, seeing how much you like realism and historical accuracy, I was not expecting you suggesting a game like TF2Team Fortress 2. Unlike Bannerlord it's a fun and challenging game, but you'll still feel at home because you get to infinitely wait for Valve to do stuff.
Yeah probably.A very fun game - but doesn't really stand up to a second play-through. So you get 50-60 hours out of it then probably never touch it again.
I agree, but the first playthrough is fun.A very fun game - but doesn't really stand up to a second play-through. So you get 50-60 hours out of it then probably never touch it again.
I mean TW have always been very slow. I don't think there is any conspiracy there.I just don't understand how (or why) TW are so amazingly slow with bannerlord.
The only explanation I can come up with is that some of the staff are already working on another game and the completion of Bannerlord has been kind of de-prioritized.
They're not some small indy studeo anymore and when you compare their rate of progress to so many other comparable companies, it's just baffling and confusing.
So how long did warband and viking conquest actually take? I wasn't playing them back then ... surely they weren't this slow? (Like 11 years slow?) Genuine question.I mean TW have always been very slow. I don't think there is any conspiracy there.
Well Viking conquest wasn't done by Taleworlds...How long did warband and viking conquest take? I wasn't playing them back then... surely they weren't this slow? Genuine question.
Yes, I mean the yearly patch thing would indicate that they basically considered the warband to be done and complete...Well Viking conquest wasn't done by Taleworlds...
As for Warband - you can see the release dates / patch notes back in the news. it had 2-3 patches shortly after release; a couple in june / August.
It has one final patch in December 2010... and then patches became a yearly offering. And when I say patch I mean -
So comparatively Bannerlord feels like a tornado of updates. But then - arguably Warband released in a much more finished state.
I have a theory...I just don't understand how (or why) TW are so amazingly slow with bannerlord.

They're not a small indy studeo anymore and when you compare their rate of progress to so many other companies of a similar or even smaller size, it's just baffling and confusing.
To me, something like Bannerlord gets so tantalizingly close to reality that it may as well go for max realism (or as realistic as it can get without making gameplay bad), while TF2 is at the opposite end of the spectrum, going full-on arcade wacky for the sake of the best gameplay possible, with just a veneer of plausibility.To be honest with you, seeing how much you like realism and historical accuracy, I was not expecting you suggesting a game like TF2
Maybe something more like Hell Let Loose (which I already played 100h+ and highly recommend) or so.
Doorkickers 2, Dysmantle, Per Aspera and Strange Horticulture have been pretty fun for me. Elsinore (they did a nice GDC talk as well) and The Iron Oath are next on my list [Shadow Empire as well, but i rage quit after initial world creation, talk about overwhelming]. Though I guess that should really go here https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php?forums/other-games.37/[snip]
I did just mod Skyrim with about 300 mods. I upgraded from Legendary Edition to Anniversary and just looked for similar or the same mods. I even learned how to port them from LE. The only real difference now is that I use True 360 combat and a dodge mod, its definitely worth it.Guys, they have until June 30 to make a full release [last day of Q2 2022]. Just wait till then.
