Interesting game but this trailer offers very little information.

I'm intrigued on the variation for battles, from small to what sounds like rather large.

Zero interest for me. Is negative interest possible? If so I'll go with that.

If you aren't a fan of the Mount and Blade games then this isn't for you.

Not sure why you would bother writing this. There are dozens of games posted here weekly that I don't care about and I don't feel the need to tell everyone here about it everytime.

Great visuals. It looks like a more advanced Mount & Blade.

I'm curious how it's an RPG though. What RPG elements is it going to have? Then again, Mount & Blade also has the RPG tag for some reason.

You can play Mount & Blade solo, without an army, if you want to. You can focus on trading, mercenary work, doing «quests» or build your own empire. You get stats, levels, you collect better equipment.... It seems the reasons why M&B qualifies as a RPG are pretty obvious ;-)

But yes, it's certainly a hybrid Action-Strategy-RPG.

I'm eager for a new game to take the mantle, after the disappointment that was M&B2.

I felt like it was more of a sim with some RPG elements when I tried it, but sure, it has character progression and quests, so if that's all you need to call it an RPG I guess you can.

 

[vanedor]

A sim.. you mean, a game that attempt to "simulate" the world in a realistic way, just like Skyrim and the like?

 

[JDR13]

Sure, except without feeling like an RPG.

 

[vanedor]

I'm really curious. What makes the game not feel like a rpg, to you?

 

[Couchpotato]

Here we go again for the millionth time.

Man wish I had a penny for every time.

Anyway there are many games in the news that have RPG elements or what I like to call RPG Lite. Doesn't really matter though as everyone's opinion is different.

So my two cents it's an open world sandbox sim with RPG element's.

This one's not for me as well! Zero interest.

Because it makes a fine example of why it is annoying when so many people around here do the same.
