I'm loving your studio since I've seen m&b warband /with fire and sword. Bannerlord looks brilliant compared to warband but as early access game it still has problems to resolve.
At first let's talk about optimalization. My computer is almost on "recommended level".1 thing which is worse is a graphic card (myNVIDIA GeForce GTX760 / rec GeForce GTX 1060) and game is still lagging sometimes+ issue of invisible characters at the start of battles. Another problem is loading screens where I'm waiting for game and complaining about "DO YOU TALEWORLDS REAlLY WANT TO FORCE ME TO BUY SSD DISC INSTEAD OF MY 1TB HDD?"
Second thing is m&b II Grinderlord. After 20 hours on 1 character I still have the same TRADE ability level and buying/selling items whole time same as LEADERSHIP which is 18 from 15 with great morales and full party (as you recommended in hint to level up). At this rate I'm not sure that i could be in half levels of last perk with 200 hours on 1 character.
Next one is smithing- 1 of my best news added in m&b. 1st problem with this is stamina- You can't see it and you dunno how many times you can refine items before smithing weapon(you can be lucky or you can be locked with much mats which are useless since regen of stamina).Like every spec in game is really grindy and You even made special cooldown for this to make it even more grindy(20 hours 17 level).System of materials and possibility to make custom weapon is brilliant BUT after many time spent for this my weapons never reached stats of Tier II weapons from shop(about 10-15 hours i was able to buy tier IV weapon ) which makes spec useless OR You can grind it by 200 hours to reach 3rd-4rd perk which gives you new recipes for mats....
Step four : tournaments - Best way to equip some good items and raise some money at early levels. Without a doubt good option to progress. Of course you can't level up your skills by arenas and tournaments which is strange for me , but I'm okay with this cause i remember Warband where farming arenas was an easy way to grind good amount of skillpoints in weapons within an hour. Another problem is unfair system of equipment- You can use your own armor in many stages BUT you can't use different weapon than given at the start of tournament. Enjoy dueling max tree level swordsman with full metal gear vs you in ok set with basic sword that deals them TONS OF... 4 dmg per head hit or 1-2 per body-arms which don't even stops their animations.
I hope that you don't recognize me as an enemy but as someone who wants to help and wants to play this game. I'm enjoying it a lot, but that problems causes everyone to stay in "early " game experience.
