Especially in the context of TaleWorlds, what does that even mean? I bough M&B in 2005, and 15 years when Bannerlord came out, I still wouldn't consider it a finished game.

Is there any hint of coming out of Early Access soon?
I know you don't mean it, but this is the most amusing question I've read all day.
It's talesworld's, they'll never finish it

"out of early access" is a pretty simple concept. It has nothing to do with them spending 10 years after the fact updating it.

"Early Access" is just loving words, your obsession is comically stupid. Some games have been complete for years before "Leaving Early Access", plenty of other games have "Left Early Access" without even being functional. Anyone sane is gonna laugh at you, get used to it. It's especially comical in the case of TaleWorlds, who are the sort of people that would slap the Early Access label on a game and literally forget they did it and just go on with life forever.

The only thing that matters is the modding tools. M&B is fine on it's own, but it's the nutso mods that make it what it is. I don't even remember the last time I played vanilla m&b warband.

I don't know, I still don't really consider warband a complete game and that's about as complete as you can expect from this dev. What would define as complete exactly?

the response was a bit strong but the point stands. this game may very well never leave "Early Access" in the context of steams application, but that is meaningless and completely disconnected from taleworlds development of the game

No musket mod for multiplayer forever finished and unbroken and TaleWorlds will be cursed by my descendents for decades the words 'gently caress your early access' scrawled on my tombstone in the blood of the cursed.
It's okay if you just want an updated slightly different setting Warband.

Bannerlord has a ton more modding potential than warband but yeah it requires more code knowledge to do things with, and generally higher fidelity assets to make sense.
If someone does do a good SP musket mod, it can be much much more fully featured than the original tries.

Just dropping in to say how much I love that this game is just a land based version of Sid Meier's Pirates, probably my favorite game of all time.
It's such a satisfying loop.

This is exactly it. What was that space game that did the same thing, starsector? There should be a name for the genre.
I've never heard of this game and I just bought it on this description alone.
I bought Pirates! Gold on Steam for old time's sake and it was my most played game for awhile.

Starsector is great we have a thread for it and everything. I would probably say it is actually the best of the mount-and-blade-esque games I've played, but then I am not especially attached to the medieval setting.

Oh man I forgot all about Starfarer / starsector, I still have a bought key from 2012. I remember having a lot of issues with the control scheme(s) at the time though, maybe I should give it another shot.

There's an option in the settings that makes it so you don't have to hold Shift all the time to orient the ship toward the cursor. Much easier to play that way for most ships.

What? One name? Who are you, Seal?

I'm always going on about this (it is a personal preference), but the thing that I would like to see more of in games like Starsector is some sort of game generated goals or overarching story.
Pirates showed that it is possible to have a big, open world and to kind of set your own gameplay, while still having overarching game goals and end to the game. I'm really turned off, for some reason, by absolute sandbox games where there are no goals other than those you set yourself - for some reason, I really prefer it when a game has some sort of ongoing overall story or goal, even if it is something as simple as Pirates! where it's basically a running score of sisters found, daughters married, etc.

Starsector is headed in that direction, for what it's worth. The last update added act 1 of a main story, with teasers for more to come.

Oh yeah, I saw that! I just wish it would get there faster (for purely selfish reasons - I'm impressed at how diligent the developer has been with keeping up with and progressing on his game - it's clearly a labor of love for him).

 if you have a campaign in 1.5.10 DO NOT UPDATE YOUR GAME. The new beta is 1.6.0, but 1.5.10 was not ready for Live yet, so you can't download that version at all right now
Beta 1.6.0 seems like quite a large update, including the first substantial changes to Smithing.
quote:
Due to outstanding issues with e1.5.10, we have decided to not move it to the live branch just yet. However, we wanted to go ahead and share the new content in e1.6.0 with you all and collect your feedback nevertheless. The live branch will be updated as soon as the issues with e1.5.10 have been resolved. Thank you for your understanding!
Beta e1.6.0

Added item donation through perks.
Stewardship T5 perk "Foreseeable Future" has been renamed to "Giving Hands", with its primary effect changed to "Discarded weapons can be donated to troops for increased experience."
Stewardship T4 perk "Paid in Promise" secondary effect has been changed to "Discarded armors can be donated to troops for increased experience."
With these perks whenever a player discards an item from the inventory & loot screen, their troops gain experience.
Fixed the “Horse Master” perk not providing an easy way to switch between a shield and a bow while riding a horse.
Fixed the “Crossbow-Donkey's Swiftness” perk incorrectly giving a bonus to all ranged weapons.

Fixed a bug that caused female characters to have an unusual belly after childbirth.

Clan and Party
Non-upgradeable and max-tier units no longer gain XP from the shared XP distribution.
Fixed an issue that prevented clan banners from changing when joining a kingdom as a mercenary.
Kingdoms and Diplomacy

Improved distribution of settlements that were previously owned by a clan that was destroyed.
Fixed an issue that caused the player clan to be removed from the kingdom.
Crafting
Added a new feature named Crafting Orders which can be accessed via the "Enter Smithy" game menu option in towns. It allows players to craft weapons for nobles and notables with open orders. Consequently, weapon crafting has been split into two modes: Crafting Orders and Free Build.
Fulfilling crafting orders will grant you with crafting experience and research points needed to unlock new parts, in addition to a gold reward and relationship gain with the noble/notable based on the value of the crafted item.
After taking an order, you'll need to create a weapon design that satisfies the stated requirements. Exceeding expectations or underdelivering comes with its own bonuses and penalties, such as an increase or reduction of the gold reward.
Relationship gains from Crafting Orders need to be unlocked with perks.
The crafting experience and research points needed to unlock new parts gains received from the "Free Build" have been greatly reduced.
We will continue to evaluate the values of items produced via the crafting process.
Settlement Actions (Town, Village, Castle and Hideout)
Success chance for gaining relation via emissaries has been reduced by half.
Fixed an issue that caused the player to gain relations with the same notable twice in a row via emissaries.

Added a new issue named “Gang Needs Recruits”.
Added a new issue quest named "Conquest of City".
Added a new issue quest named "Noble Revolt".
Added additional dialogues for issues that can be solved by a companion.

Fixed a bug that caused the conspiracy quests to keep coming up after the "Arzagos/Istiana's Plan" quest had been finalised.
General bug fixes and improvements to the “Destroy Raiders” conspiracy quest.

Mounted Ransackers of the “Caravan Ambush Quest” now use Short Militia Spears instead of Reinforced Highland Spears.
Fixed a bug that caused the surrendering bandits to not count towards quest progress in the “Destroy Raiders” conspiracy quest.
Conversations & Encounters
The barter option with looters no longer takes power ratio into account. Instead, it will consider who initiated the encounter. This fixes an issue where bandits would come to the player and ask for a toll, but there was no option to pay because the player was stronger than them.
Barter auto-offer now prioritises gold over other barterable items.
Ransoming prisoners via conversation with the Ransom Broker has been temporarily disabled.
Fixed a bug that allowed the player to talk to their brother about joining a kingdom as a vassal.
Other

Multiplayer
Crashes
Fixed a crash that occurred during skirmish matches.

Design & Balance

Game Modes
Added Duel mode.
Duel mode allows you to face off against other players in single combat. Duels take place on a new map, Proving Grounds, which has 3 different zones for infantry, ranged and mounted combat, with each zone containing multiple arenas.
After selecting a faction and class, players are spawned in a central hub area where they can challenge other players to a duel. If the challenge is accepted, both players are teleported to a suitable arena and the duel begins, with the winner being the first player to score 3 rounds.
Winning duels earns Bounty points.
Winners of a duel get half of their opponent's Bounty added to their own.
Any Bounty earned by the players is summed up as their Score on the scoreboard.
Added voice chat for Skirmish game mode.

Added some more problem detection systems related to siege ladders for scenes.
Added support for adding new custom battle maps outside the CustomBattle module (within other modules).
The Hero class now uses events to handle certain restrictions instead of cached data, for example, the CanHaveQuestsOrIssuesEvent event which checks if a hero can be targeted by new quests or issues.
Added a new callback with the name OnBeforeMissionBehaviourInitialize() to MBSubModuleBase which is called before MissionBehaviour's OnBehaviourInitialize method. This is in response to a community request for a cleaner way to remove Missionbehaviors from missions.
Did a refactor to move Campaign related classes from Object Manager to Campaign Object Manager.
Culture and trait attributes have been added to the equipment template XMLs.
Added and removed some internal modifiers to make them more consistent and reduce unnecessary limitations.
You can learn more about this HERE.
Made the character attraction for romance moddable by moving it to a game model.
Removed "All" lists for some of the default classes such as DefaultSkills, DefaultPerks, DefaultFeats, DefaultTraits, DefaultBuildingTypes, DefaultIssueEffects, DefaultPolicies, DefaultSiegeStrategies, DefaultSkillEffects, DefaultVillageType, DefaultSiegeEngineTypes, DefaultItems, DefaultItemCategories, DefaultCharacterAttributes. Every instance of said object can now be accessed with a new list at its corresponding type or its extensions, for example, use SiegeEngineTypes.All instead of DefaultSiegeEngineTypes.All. SiegeEngineTypes.All will include all of the Siege Engine Types in the object manager. Lists like DefaultSiegeEngineTypes.All were mostly hardcoded.
Skill effects are now registered to the object manager which means that SkillEffect.All now includes skill effects added by mods.
Modifying which basic volunteers a hero gives out can now be changed through a game model (VolunteerProductionModel). The only way to achieve that previously was by rewriting the RecruitmentCampaignBehavior.
Campaign event receivers are now moddable (modders can add their custom campaign event receivers through Campaign.AddCampaignEventReceiver).
Removed the character attribute enum (adding new attributes wasn’t possible before). It is now using static references instead at DefaultCharacterAttributes and Attributes.All to reference CharacterAttributes.

Today I learned that F6, "delegate command," saves a lot of needless casualties otherwise caused by my amateurish grasp of military tactics. The AI is a much more responsive, nimble, and prudent battlefield commander. Archers know at what range to form their own skirmish lines! Infantry follow and protect them! Cavalry split to protect flanks and charge when your opponent is weak! It's all automatic!

Yeah it's sorta like cinematic observer mode. I recommend trying to crack the egg that is commanding, though, because it really does add to the game. It's not for everyone, but keep giving it a shot every so often and maybe eventually it will click.
