You can have sex on a stuffed unicorn with a woman who is a out-of-the-fairytale beauty.

I don't have anything else to say...

To preface what I'll say, I have to say that I'm playing this game and it's predecessors for a long time. I've been there since 0.600 version of Mount&Blade, where you begin your journey in Zendar, attending Tournaments and discussing the state of slave market with Ramun the Slave Trader.

Mount&Blade and TaleWorlds are the one of the earliest companies that employed the Early Access system and they've delivered the best they can according to their scale. While the company growing, the game grew with them. I've witnessed all the evolution, revolution and improvements that transitioned the game where it is today.

But why I say these, rather nostalgic things about a game that just released in Early Access? Because I have faith. I have faith in Armağan and all of the team, I have faith in the community and ultimately, I have faith in this game. Even in it's early access state, the game has so much to offer, there are numerous things to do, enormous amount of possibilities and scenarios to discover. After the hours I've spend in Bannerlord, it came to me in an instant that i have so much to do.

Almost everything is an improvement from the previous titles. Factions, items, characters, campaign map, scenery, battles, sieges, systems and so on. I'm having goosebumps when I imagine how the things will play when all the bugs and issues ironed out. Even it's current state, time is disappearing while i play this game.

The verdict?

There are bugs, half done features, balance issues, glitches, all sorts of problems.

But,

Despite those, the game is up and running, there are things that ripe for experiencing. There is a world that deeply immerses you. You will find an upgraded title in every aspect.

I will play this game and hopefully enjoy it for a long time. You can either witness all the changes since the EA launch, or enjoy the final product after the game is fully done. It can be frustrating to deal all the problems, but on the other hand, immersing with all the changes is truly a different experience.

I hope people give this game a try and enjoy as much as I do.

Cheers.

This in-depth gaming experience.

I am a Mount&Blader since 0.7's. From that day, whenever I owerwhelm from fantasy RPG's, whenewer I need a good game, I always run to Mount&Blade. Indeed, its an indie game and has its own flaws. But its unique taste can devour you immediately. I devoted 1000+ hours to game and modding, and every moment has been precious to me. In addition, its a Turkish-developed game by my friends from METU, and that make this game my best.
