I'm becoming more and more confident that Bannerlord will be a rather great success. This is very exciting!

And yes, lovely work on the blog, Lust! 

 

[Marko͘]

Brilliant stuff, good writing.
Keep it up regularly and get the hype up to the maximum.
Cheers

 

[Adorno]

A developers blog. Excellent!

Spoiler: Speaking of hair: the mane on this horse could use some work, or a different shader.

 

[Kazzan]

Good blog post! Looking forward to hearing more.

I wonder if that ladder in the background will be climbable, also, hopefully the female faces will be even better. :U

 

[Tottel]

Looks fantastic! Great jobs guys, really looking forward to Bannerlord.

 

[vadermath]

Hooooly ****. Can't wait for this, haven't played a M&B game in ages.

 

[PoisonCourtesan]

I'm really hoping for scars.

Spoiler

Ah yeah, that's pretty good.

Will there be new blood effects and gore? I hated that there were red triangles on your armor in Warband and 1.011.

 

[gypsydevil]

Looks amazing!  I am freaking impressed!


Also, thanks for the update, nice that you guys are keeping the community involved!!

 

[Brador]

Superb, simply!

The best thing about it was the details on the developing routine on the office, really interesting to know more about it!
Good work, Lust!

Awesome Lust!

 

[CryoNomad]

SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY! 

 

[Singil]

Wow... four pages of pure Bannerlord love. Even darwin expressed some sort of affection in his own way.

oh how I wish we could show you the whole good stuff right away! We obviously can't do that but I can at least tell you that most of the suggestions made so far are about stuff  that has already been taken care of! 

And yes, I am the king of nervingly vague statements...

 

[CryoNomad]

Then how about I suggest co-op campaigns please? 

 

[MaHuD]

Or Anti-cheat.

 

[Swordmaster]

I'm really hoping for scars.

Spoiler

So is this a scar that you can get or a different face texture that you pick from the start?

 

[Golradir]

I'd like to be able to perfectly trim my moustache!

 

[Rigadoon]

Please tell me you'll have hand animations. I didn't see a single unclenched hand in the last batch of screenshots.

 

[+Varsung+]

Streaming Tool and more stats for multiplayer like damage dealt, kill assists, etc.

 

[FrisianDude]

I just love how some people are thanking Lust personally and -only- Lust. As if there isn't an entire team of hardworking (or not? ) professionals busy.

 

[Dom13]

Please tell me you'll have hand animations. I didn't see a single unclenched hand in the last batch of screenshots.

I am really excited for this. I am very happy with the progress made so far
