This game is like witchcraft. You'll play for hour think its alright, clunky and obtuse but nothing really outstanding. Then you'll realize its 2 am and you've been staring at the same battlefield fighting 5 battles one after the other on the same repeated maps. And you'll wonder how the hell did that happen. There is almost no other game like it out there.

You could run this game on a nokia, which is good cause my computer is hardly any better than that. If you want to play bannerlord but own a potato that can't even run lethal company (my computer can't even run lethal company) then try this game.

As I sit down to pen my thoughts on Mount & Blade, a flood of memories rushes back from the countless hours spent exploring the vast expanse of Calradia. For over a decade, this game has been more than just a virtual escape—it's been a journey of conquest, diplomacy, and adventure unlike any other. Back in 2010, when I first ventured into the world of Mount & Blade, I was immediately captivated by its unique blend of sandbox gameplay and medieval warfare. The freedom to carve out my own path, whether as a noble knight, a cunning merchant, or a fearsome warlord, was a breath of fresh air in an industry saturated with linear narratives and scripted experiences. From the moment I swung my first sword and charged into battle on horseback, I knew I was hooked. The adrenaline rush of leading my troops into combat, the satisfaction of seeing my kingdom flourish under my rule, and the thrill of outmaneuvering my rivals on the political stage—it was a feeling like no other. Every decision felt meaningful, every victory hard-earned, and every defeat a lesson learned. But what truly set Mount & Blade apart was its emergent storytelling. Every playthrough was a unique narrative, shaped by the choices I made and the alliances I forged. Whether I was brokering peace between warring factions, raiding enemy caravans for loot, or engaging in epic siege battles for control of strategic strongholds, no two adventures were ever alike. Of course, Mount & Blade wasn't without its flaws. From clunky combat mechanics to dated graphics, the game certainly showed its age at times. Yet, it was precisely these imperfections that added to its charm, lending it a sense of authenticity and immersion that few other games could match. Over the years, Mount & Blade has continued to evolve and expand, with each new installment building upon the foundation laid by its predecessors. From Warband to Bannerlord, the series has grown in scope and ambition, yet it has never lost sight of what made it special in the first place—the freedom to write your own story in a living, breathing world. As I look back on a decade spent in the world of Mount & Blade, I can't help but feel grateful for the countless adventures, epic battles, and unforgettable moments that this game has given me. It's been a journey filled with triumph and tragedy, glory and betrayal, but through it all, one thing remains constant—the enduring magic of Calradia, and the countless tales waiting to be told within its borders. Here's to another decade of adventure, conquest, and glory in the world of Mount & Blade. Thank you, TaleWorlds Entertainment, for ten years of unforgettable memories, and here's to many more to come.
