Yes, i'm still playing BL 2 years later ... one of the Few ...
Yes, WB is alot older with many great add ons, just like BL will be after official release .. lets get that OR ASAP.

Yeah I miss so much of this actually, most of these could have been expanded. Imagine if you as a lord get random assassinations attempts and you wake up at night to beat the **** out of hired assassins, maybe derive into a mission to find whoever is trying to kill you/family member. Just imagining stuff here, but you get the point. And noble duels was so much fun, ****ing up relationships between a lady and a lord for my own selfish decisions and then getting dunked by the lady was such an immersive event lmao. And making enemies in your own faction was fun too, it's like you belong to this faction but some people consider your a massive douchebag, this are the kind of things that could end up in a civil war if it had been expanded here. Honestly, I expected all of this in the base game, what a shameNow we are reaching 2 years in early access, I would like to see TW do an update to their Future Plans post, as many of the things on there have been completed.
In particular I'd like to see a statement on missing features that were in Warband but aren't in Bannerlord, or features which were advertised to be part of Bannerlord before Early Access but are still not in yet.
- nobles visiting the player's kingdom hall when they wish to strike a defection bargain (WB), or some equivalent feature that makes it easier to get in contact with nobles
- Feasts (WB)
- minor faction bases (advertised pre-EA)
- manhunters + deserters (WB)
- player-owned alley criminal enterprises (advertised pre and post-EA)
- skill books (WB) or an equivalent like skill trainers
- surprise attacks by bandits/drunks in town (WB)
- noble duels (WB)
- fighting your way out after failing to sneak into a town (WB)
These things are important as (combined with fixing existing features) they would make Bannerlord into a good, fun sequel that fulfils all its promises/created expectations.

I don't think we'll see any statement about those things, sadly...In particular I'd like to see a statement on missing features that were in Warband but aren't in Bannerlord, or features which were advertised to be part of Bannerlord before Early Access but are still not in yet.
Few?
Games got a higher average daily player count then Warhammer 3, Crusader Kings 3 or Dying Light 2. It's had a consistent 20k+ players now for 2 years; it's a very healthy game. On average gathering over twice the player-count Warband did during its height.
I know this forum loves to blast Bannerlord - but the playercount is genuinely fine (and the game isn't even technically released yet).
None of the games he mentioned got a lower average daily player count than Bannerlord on Steam, neither is the consistency of 20k players per month true, right now its decline got to 13k. Also, bannerlord is the only game from the ones mentioned by him that only exists on Steam, the other three games got a higher player count on Steam charts and are also played on other platforms, so his comment is really butter.Last time i looked on Steam, bannerlords players had collapsed from release numbers .. Maybe i need to recheck..

Or maybe he got his numbers from somewhere else, I looked them up on steamcharts.
Also the times Bannerlord actually hit 20k avg players are very rare, let's say a 15k average is much more realistic but still may be too much.
Not the 30 day figure!! One of those games only came out 30 days ago; and Ck3 just got a major expansion (also last month)! I'll admit CK3 is much closer then I realised to Bannerlord - but given that is a newer game by a bigger developer that is highly rated that's not exactly bad going.Last 30 days:
BN: https://steamcharts.com/app/261550 Avg Players 13,183.6
CK3: https://steamcharts.com/app/1158310 Avg Players 17,491.2
DL2: https://steamcharts.com/app/534380 Avg Players 18,591.7
WH3: https://steamcharts.com/app/1142710 Avg Players 28,234.9
You were talking about Avg Players, right ? Because I don't know what numbers you just posted, but I can't find them.
Also, you can have your Apology if that's what you're looking for, I don't even know why I tried to correct someone on this forum in the first place.
Wish you all the best, also, please leave a link to your numbers, so I can understand which chart you are talking about
