Alot of things went wrong with bannerlord but there are some things that i am very glad they did,
lets just reflect on what changes they did that we appreciate
i appreciate that you can now ride every horse and equip every weapon on the battlefield,
no more weird text saying "you lack the appropriate skill" dying from a horde of enemies while a horse is just waiting to be mounted in front of you
(although you are less accurate with bows when you pick them up and not the same speed as cavalry while on your horse, still this is a great movement forward in game design)
You could use 2 handed weapons with one hand if you choose, allowing you to have more variety when wielding a 2 handed bastard weapon that can change to 1 handed to get that extra range when attacking cavalry or a long 2 handed weapon opponent ( they changed this within the last couple of weeks, not sure why, must have been due to bastard swords not switching to 2 handed mode when the shield breaks making it too slow when you are overwhelmed by multiple opponents( which is why the shield probably broke in the first place))
hopefully they change it back to being able to use bastard swords 1h or 2h without shield
the game is alot prettier,
not really important to me, but it helps draw a wider audience to fill those battle servers to capacity making for a better multiplayer experience (when they put battle mode back in.... eventually)
cav bumps are not as predictable as they were in warband (at least maybe im not good enough with them) making playing against cavalry less frustrating bc you know your not going to be automatically killed by a bump and slash which was really easy to execute
(although cav hp is very high but im sure they will lower it more.... hopefully)
bannerlord online is a thing!
not the developers but at least they provided the base for another person to make this game a reality,
i can finally play this game (single player-ish) with my fiance, although she never wants to lol
rag doll physics are satisfying,
its fun when you kill someone with a two handed weapon and you see their feet get sweeped from underneath them where you hit them,
it can be very sad just thinking what they did wrong, so lets try to disrupt the general pessimism and hopefully motivate the taleworlds team with optimism about the positive changes that they did with bannerlord
found recently you can drop empty quivers/jav containers by holding G
this was really good bc empty jav containers always annoyed me
