honestly interesting idea, I make videos but mainly about Duckie and some bannerlord training videos. But I have not thought about talking about my decision making... interesting...Yes especially if there's commentary or if it's from the perspective of a player who is actively talking about their decision making
+1No, but I would watch comp battle
At the moment the competitive community seems to be disproportionally in the favor of skirmish being the main comp mode.I've been waiting years for that to come out, supposedly next patch. Battle or skirmish, we'll see I guess. It'll tear the community in 2, and most likely outcome is they'll both die out, at the very least neither will become very popular.
I think this is nonsense, even within the Bannerlord MP community. There are also hundreds of people that still play Warband’s Battle mode competitively.At the moment the competitive community seems to be disproportionally in the favor of skirmish being the main comp mode.

Wondering if someone would watch live-streamed/recorded matches. Reading these threads shows the disconnect of players who play different game modes. Clearly the game is being mainly balanced around skirmish. Maybe people would like to watch why?
He's not necessarily wrong, from the discussions on discords it seems most people are not willing to switch to playing Battle competitively until it's actually balanced out the gold system. Which knowing Taleworlds snail pace of development, will take months.I think this is nonsense, even within the Bannerlord MP community.

I'm having more fun on Battle than on Skirmish even at this state of the game mode, and looking at so many clans that were created just for it, I think it has a chance to become a main competitive mode in Bannerlord. I don't know how are they going to balance it while having a class system, it will be very hard or even not possible, but still better than Skirmish.He's not necessarily wrong, from the discussions on discords it seems most people are not willing to switch to playing Battle competitively until it's actually balanced out the gold system.

By that logic, good skirmish casts should be just as entertaining.Battle casts were what got me into Warband's battle mode and competitive scene. Entertaining casting with a good spectator overlay (HP, gold) would be entertaining to watch. However, those sorts of streams would be only be watched by an existing audience and wouldn't draw in new players.
But growing the MP scene has too many problems. (Decided to make my own thread since it was getting far too off topic.)
Well, I'm talking about people who play Bannerlord competitively, not Warband. There's a poll going on right now that is 10/1 in the favor of playing skirmish rather than battle. Also there's just the fact that warband doesn't exactly HAVE a skirmish mode. They wouldn't be playing warband skirmish, because there is no warband skirmish.I think this is nonsense, even within the Bannerlord MP community.

Due to respawns, skirmish is more spread out, so more difficult to cast and observe.By that logic, good skirmish casts should be just as entertaining.
I don't know what poll you are referring to, I'd like to see what sort of people are participating. The most hardcore Bannerlord MP players are going to be inclined towards skirmish because it's what they're used to. A skirmish mode in Warband wouldn't get much attention because battle is vastly superior for competitive play and it's what players there are used to. It's a reductive argument to even talk about a skirmish mode in Warband, and I struggle to envision that you are deluded enough to think that Warband MP players would prefer skirmish to battle. The only reason I'd be tentative about playing a single-life mode competitively in Bannerlord is because the class system doesn't work very well with it, not because skirmish is actually preferable to battle.Well, I'm talking about people who play Bannerlord competitively, not Warband.
