This game is very fun to begin with but over a long period of time you start to want to either make/join a kingdom and doing one of them is fun, making a kingdom is fun for everyone, become the world power be the best kingdom in the land etc. but building up to it is a giant pain and most people like it but having to deal with glitches on the way there is a huge thorn in mine or peoples arses.

But on a ideal note for the game to be where it is at the moment I can safely say, this might be one of the best ''Early Access'' games out there and I say that with huge air quotations as it feels almost exactly like a end product with a few bugs that get fixed within a few days.

I can rate the game a 7.5/10
The game is very fun but from fighting you get bored from watching the same fields, mountains, forests, etc. it really gets boring and at the point where you get 40+ men you can just hit ''Send Army'' and just relax and that defeats the purpose of the game in my eyes but I guess I can also say the game is still adding more stuff and could include more areas(battle maps)

Game play 5/10

You can make an army straight away, do missions or do trading there really isn't much else to go off if that makes any sense its fun don't get me wrong but when you find a city to buy stuff from and sell to another kingdom the prices will be different from what it says on the item, the missions get boring after doing them a few times, it gets to the point where I'll just buy companions to get them to do it for me and making an army and becoming a power within the first hour is just dull after one or two restarts its just the same thing.

Items in the game 10/10

The items in the game are detailed, look badass, look strong, feel strong, makes you feel like a god and can be some of the best looking thing in the game at some points, if you ever feel like making a role where you want to be a heavy lancer go for it, if you want to be a light archer then be my guest, my point is you can do and be what ever you please and even change what your companions have as their equipment(no difference from other games) I find this all to be very fun to look at and work for.

Its safe to say I can highly recommend this game to people and I'd love people to give it a try even if you feel like it isn't your sort of game you'll be able to refund it within 2 hours of play time, I wish they gave us the same sort of demo aspects as warband but they didn't which has disappointed me a little bit.
