Mount & Blade Review (LordIronSpine)
overall, this game is fun. however at the end of my time playing i got kicked in the balls. there's a lot of fun to be had, but some things are so frustrating they must be made clear:
> Game Mechanics: beyond how to move and fight, there is no explanation of any game mechanics. there is an overabundant wealth of information about itty bitty tid-bits, but if you want to know how to get land, who and what heroes are, or any aspect about having an army, you will have to figure it out yourself or get lucky on the internet, as finding any info on a game from 2008 is an undertaking all on its own
> Quest Logic: you will get quests that are impossible to complete before you even know they are. I was told to deliver a message to a lord who i could not talk to because they were in a fight, so the quest expired and failed. i also had to deliver a message to a lord in another kingdom, where moments before arriving war was declared and getting to them meant going through every one of their armies.
