All I see on this sub is, "How do I kill my wife?", "How do I kill my King?". What happened to loyalty? What happened to romance? Maybe I'm just a simple man, but when I play this game there's a few things I do no matter what. I team up with CalaDawg and teach Dirthead the ancient Battanian technique of projectile induced dismounting. And I marry a nice Sturgian woman who I will love and protect until the day I die. Under absolutely NO circumstance do I use javelins for evil. God help any poor foolish AI who dares to capture my wife, because it won't be long before their head rolls. Call me old fashioned but I take the sacred vows of marriage seriously. submitted by /u/Friar_Corncob [link] [comments]
Hey, so I’ve been getting that itch to dive back into Mount & Blade. I used to play it years ago, mostly during my uni days when I had more time. I remember getting ambushed by looters, losing half my army, and somehow still feeling like a tactical genius.
Now I’m thinking about picking it up again, but I’m also curious if there are other games that scratch the same itch. My cousin (he’s 17 and just got into medieval stuff through Total War) asked me what he should try, and I realized there are quite a few options out there. Here’s what I’m considering:
Mount & Blade: Warband – still a classic, but I’m not sure how well it holds up in 2025. Is the modding scene still active? https://www.g2a.com/mount-blade-warband-steam-key-global-i10000006352007
Battle Brothers – I like the tactical depth, but the visuals and RNG can be a bit rough https://www.g2a.com/battle-brothers-steam-key-global-i10000035112004
Crusader Kings III – I love the chaos and dynasties, but it’s more of a grand strategy than boots-on-the-ground combat https://www.g2a.com/crusader-kings-iii-pc-steam-key-global-i10000195605007
I’m kind of stuck between going full nostalgia or trying something more modern. If anyone here has played these recently, I’d really appreciate your thoughts. Thanks!
