Really good game, so many fun little references, and the many game-play changes keeps the game exiting.

Meh, just a grind game

10/10 game

Very confusing, you are just thrown into a lab, then a cave then a swamp, then cave then some ruins and suddenly there is a boss.

Pros:
Stunning graphics.
Good soundtrack(although loud)
Combat is challenging without being hard.
Lots of references

Cons:
Iffy controls.
menu's don't work, couldn't access the bottom options in ANY menu.
No idea of any story (i know it's only a tech demo~ish thing but still)
Sound effects are too loud, i had it at 10% in game and 10% in windows, still my ears hurt.

Overall 5/10

Don't really see the point in this game, besides bigger battles and a few minor tweaks, it's basically the same as the old ones.

Pros:
The combat i better than Warband and feels exactly like it did in the original.
Battles now goes to 1000 units, which is quite nice.
You can make your own weapons.
Skill trees are now part of the game and looks/works great.
Party list is set up nicer and is easier to read
You can make your own clan, give more advanced commands to followers.
Siege battles have been upgraded with machinery and new mechanics

Cons:
You will see comments about improved graphics, besides the character getting a small overhaul, i can't see a difference.
AI seems to have been downgraded since 2008 original game. they have gotten worse at blocking and general combat.
The UI looks a lot nicer, but it works a lot worse.


Conclusion:
Overall i can't see enough reason to buy this game, maybe if it was around 10 euro.
i got it at a 20% sale, and still think it was too much. ended up refunding.

Loved the series, now just a disappointed fan

Waste of time. pretty much just a digging simulator with alot of waiting time.
Pros:
The game is really pretty.
The music is really relaxing (all 30 seconds of it)
The hunting, woodcutting etc is pretty immersive.
Lots of stuff to explore.
You can make really pretty houses.
Doesn't support the flat earth theory.

Cons:
Really boring game, i love survival games. but this is not a survival game. it's more like a stripped down sandbox.
The mechanics are fun to start with. But they get really boring. having to move one block of dirt and then run somewhere else to dumb it, it just takes too much time.
The hunger system doesn't work really. when you get hungry enough you can't work, but that's it. you can't die. besides that the balancing of eating diffrent kinds of food, well there is alot missing.
Mining stone..... why would you even make it so you have to mine each block twice? this is not because of lag. but they decided that stones break in three pieces, two small and one big, you have to chop the big one up again to pick it up.
Sooo much waiting. i've spend alot of hours in this game just standing. you have to wait for each item you craft, some takes a long time even with upgrades.
The multiplayer connection is edgy at best. we startet by just hosting through steam, but then my friends couldn't connect and we had to make a dedicated server.

All in all, if you like digging go for it. if not stay far away
3/10

In no way would i be able to give this game the credit it deserves.
I would rate this as the best RPG in the last 10 years.

Pros:
Fantastic story
Amazing characters with in depth story (even for the smallest rabbit)
Lots and lots of secrets
A+ music and voice acting
Combat that will keep you excited no matter how many fights you are in
And so much more

Cons:
only 2 player co-op (more with mods but it's buggy)
Ocasional bugs, nowhere near gamebreaking but they do happen
Sometimers the town NPC can get really annoying, when they keep shouting about cheese

Overall experience 10/10 would play again

This is not a game, it's an interactive story.
The story itself is lovely and very sweet.
I loved it and i can't say i didn't cry a single manly tear at some point in this game.
Enjoy!

This game has a terrible story and terrible gameplay.
Graphics and character design is decent.
Buy at own risk, Enjoy

This is a very story driven game, this sadly means that the gameplay isn't the greatest but it is still very fun.
Expect alot of racism and ALOT of 18+ jokes.
The story is very nice and kinda drags you in.
Game overall is very enjoy able with nice grapichs and one of the best soundtracks out there.
Enjoy!
