The horns sound, the ravens gather. An empire is torn by civil war. Beyond its borders, new kingdoms rise. Gird on your sword, don your armour, summon your followers and ride forth to win glory on the battlefields of Calradia. Establish your hegemony and create a new world out of the ashes of the old.
After 10 years you get warband 1.5, still unfinished and at least 1-2 years from release. filled with bugs, unbalanced, loads of placeholders and main thing - kingdom management is still not there. Early access beta my ***, this is pre-alpha at best
Don't get me wrong i loves M&B series, and will play and probably love bannerlord but here is the thing, after 12 years they still couldn't make a really different game. with warband and it's dlcs it's released after few years, bannerlord took a long time in development to the point it's really good graphics becomes outdated, now it's looks bad, and still gameplay wise basically a warband, even some warband mods is better than this.
Combat looks the same and all the soldiers glitching into each other and basically moving through each other looks really bad.
Many things will change at initial release but a lot of these terrible gameplay bugs won't change.
Having played M&B since I was a pre-teen, I can only say it is, at least in its current state, a pretty big letdown.

Newest edition of the unique RPG/strategy game/action game/tactics game/open world game. Lacks some features, but overall offers what no other game does and is perfect for mods.

Canonical update of Warband. Outstanding.
Improving customisability every day, and the perfect combat + party + rp sim.
The best medieval simulator at this time.
