With this game you have to take your time, the progression after a certain point starts to slow down and you probably won't see your goals for the game close for another 30-40 hours, but the process is very enjoyable. One becomes more familiar with the combat system, begins to know what types of soldiers he prefers to have, how to get money and with which nobles you must associate to fulfill your ambitions. In addition, the community of modders has helped me enjoy the game even more.

Still such a great game even so many years later - excellent mods available too, ranging from enriching politicking and diplomacy or converting the entire game into the Lord of the Rings or even a different time period
  • Low run requirements
  • Loads of amazing mods
  • So many different ways to play
  • A little dated

  • The game has a big open world map. (Singleplayer)
  • Cheat system. (It's fun)
  • Lots of weapons and armors to choose from.
  • 2 DLC's if you want more content.

Graphics are good too for game from 2010, and there is at least 30+ hours of game to capture all castles.

Voici une petite présentation du jeu que j'ai écrite en anglais :
In a wide RPG, dive in a middle age universe, the player must win some importance in the feodale society.
The world of Caladria is plunged in a perpetual chaos, were, the powerfuls and the opportunists fights for the entire power.
Released in those dangerous lands, you must, thanks to the sharp blade of your shining steel sword or the finesse of your spirit, impose you to forge you a name.
Earn a place at the table of the powerful and become the greatest merchant of all times, the most ruthless mercenary of the steppes or the loved dirigeant of a rich and illustrated kingdom.
The possibilities are countless ; gather an incredible army, captur castles, invest in the artisanat, get married to a noble family wife or steal prestigious titles…
Adventure awaits for you.
You and only you are the master of your own destiny.

Mount and Blade promise you an great adventure and, honestly that what the game is really but, maybe not entirely.
The turk studio Tale World entertainment propose to you some interesting and maitrising mechanics to give you an interesting and deep experience of role play.
Here you don't have a clear objectif, you can play how you want and you can be who you want , that is the real force of the game.
Mount and Blade was created in 2008 with an old graphic motor of 2004 so, yes the game is old and the general visual aspect is just horrible today.
But, actually, the gameplay apologize the rest.
Combats was innovatives at the time, today in 2019 it’s okay.
The most interesting thing here is the army and prestige systems, it’s actually the core mechanics of the gameplay and it’s just so much fun to manage your mans on the battlefield and seen your archers and your knights kick the as* of the enemies with hungry steel.
  • épique
  • Immersif
  • Une bonne campagne

Mount & Blade: Warband is a medieval action adventure role-playing game with elements of strategy and management. In this game, you can choose who you start off as, ranging from a measly peasant to a meddling scholar to a high noble. Naturally, if you choose to be a noble, the game will be easier as you will have good standing with various kingdoms/factions, and likewise you won’t have any standing and won’t be treated equally by the lords if you choose to start off as a peasant. You start with a small army, and as the game proceeds, you can choose to invest in more soldiers for your army.

The game is an RPG in every sense of the word. What you want to do in the game is entirely up to you. You can roam the lands and become a well reputed and wealthy merchant. You can try and usurp the kingdoms of the Calradia and be the only ruler. Your can terrorize the villages and towns as a fearsome bandit captain. You can also join sides with another kingdom and aid them on their journey, or you can just be a mercenary selling their services. The options are limitless, and they are all yours to make.

The game is a masterpiece. You will get a lot of content to enjoy in this game. The hours will just fly by! The game has a lot of options available to you in how you want to approach the game. This gives the game a lot of replayability. You create your own adventure and make a story through your actions in Calradia. The sequel is also coming out soon, so this will be a great first step into the franchise. The devs are amazing; they have put a lot of love and care into this game. The expansion Napoleonic Wars adds multiplayer to this game. Multiplayer is engaging with so many players in one single battle it is an amazing experience. Most of the time you can keep it casual and have a hilarious conversation with the other players as well. Also, there are people who organise battles that recreate history in game. It is amazing to see them recreate wars of real world in a game like this. At first glance, this game looks underwhelming, but if you give this a chance you will be pleasantly surprised. It is definitely money well spent.

The only negative would be that the graphics are a bit dated. For those of you that really want high quality graphics, this game won’t have much to offer. That being said, the game is still amazing and most people who play the game don’t really mind the graphics. The other issue that some players might have with how the game lacks any real narrative, but it shouldn’t be a problem for most people. The strength of the game lies in making your own story through the numerous options that you always have available to you.

Whenever I play this game, I get completely immersed and lose track of time! You can enjoy this game endlessly and if you do ever get bored(impossible), then you can always install a few mods to try new experiences. There are wide variety of mods available from simple diplomacy, cosmetic mods to total overhaul mods that can change the setting to that in LOTR or Game of Thrones or Sengoku era Japan. There is something for everyone to be found in the workshop. Even if you aren’t a fan of medieval setting, you can easily add a mod to the game through the workshop that changes the game completely into different which interests you. The game has an active modding community even 8 years after its release. This speaks volumes about how relevant and well-liked the game still is despite its aging looks.

Overall, this is a really good game. It is an iconic and a masterpiece that has gone on to inspire many more games and developers. Right now this game is quite cheap and with the upcoming release of Bannerlord, this is a great place to enter the series, and you are definitely going to enjoy it.

Improving on the ambitious Mount & Blade, the stand alone expansion is a fantastic medieval RPG deep gameplay, endless replayability, and an active modding community. If you look past the aging graphics, this game has a lot to offer with its rich RPG elements and the sandbox world. The game doesn’t have a central narrative, so if you are looking for that you’ll have to pass up, but the game wouldn’t have been much different with a narrative anyway.

Seeing how cheap the game is, it’s a highly recommended purchase.
