Why I Still Love Bannerlord Despite Its Flaws Hello everyone I've been thinking about this for a while, and I wanted to share it with anyone who enjoys Bannerlord, or wants to enjoy it more. If you're already having fun throughout the entire game, that's great. This post probably isn't aimed at you. But if you've ever felt that Bannerlord has incredible potential yet somehow loses its magic after the early game, maybe this perspective will help. I completely understand the criticism the game receives. Bannerlord could have been so much more. The quests become repetitive, diplomacy lacks depth, and many of its mechanics never evolve as much as they could. The early game is exciting, the mid game starts to slow down and the late game often turns into a grind. I agree with all of that. And yet... I still enjoy every stage of the game.

What to do for cash / growth in early game between wars while staying honorable, bandits are rare? [Floris, if relevant]
I've played Warband for over a hundred hours, a bit under half of it on Floris, and I'm having difficulty with this routinely. I've got a party of 59, not enough fame for vassalage, and I'm milling around the Kindom of Rhodoks as the faction I'd like to be with. The lords are rarely offering me quests and the Rhodok lands are chock full of manhunters so the bandit population is pretty culled.
This is the early game, so I can't set up enterprises in town, and if there's no war on in my faction, there's no mercing, so there's no stable income and I have to hope I get a good fight or quest each week to pay for my crew. So what can I do in this downtime?
Village quests outside of bandit defense are basically 'spend all your money on us' so that's out of the question for now. A dishonorable character can raid a village or caravan, but in my case I'll be encouraging my medic Jeremus to ditch me. Should I just try adventuring around another part of the world hoping I can find some more bandit fights?
Or would it be better off to ditch Jeremus, find someone who doesn't mind raiding to be my medic instead, and just tank the honor hits with some honorable deeds?
