First time playing bannerlord or anything mount & blade related, and I've been following the main quest and having a great time fighting my way up in the world. I opted to make my own non-imperial kingdom rather than join one, and my first fief was Balagrad (which I took from rebels). From Balagrad, I then moved to conquer lands of the northern empire, which is what the main quest pushes for. I took Epicrotea and fought off Lucon's army at the gates, where I gained my second (much more prosperous) fief. The problem now is that the Vlandians have shown hyper-aggression towards me, and it is impossible for me to do anything about them. They've taken over the majority of the western half of the map through endless warfare, are the superpower of the game, and for every man I have, they have 12 more. I have 50 relation with Derthert, my family is married into a powerful Vlandian clan, my character is of Vlandian origin, and the game difficulty is set on normal, but they ins...
I pretty much just play Warband (with Floris Mod Pack) and I admit that most of the time I kinda glaze over the back-stories of everything, when a companion stops me to tell me about a place or an event I just speed-read through it, not even really letting it settle in. For me, this game has always been light on story in favor of deep engaging gameplay mechanics, which is what I like.
I am curious though, am I really missing much? Is there interesting or good lore to be uncovered in this series? Should I be paying more attention and read the flavor text or is there really nothing worth digging up underneath all this sand?
