If that initially sounds intriguing, exciting even, then I do have to temper your expectations a little. You control your own character as well as your band of followers, with an array of tactics and commands up your sleeve to use to your advantage The strategic elements come when you take to the battlefield against warring bandits or larger armies. You’ll interact with characters, take on quests and choose from various conversation trees. In terms of being an RPG, you explore tiny holdfasts, as well as large sprawling cities. The gameplay is split thanks to its diverse genres. You’ll travel Calradia looking for fame and fortune, and spilling a fair amount of blood along the way. You are the leader of an up and coming clan, looking to make a name for yourself. A kind of unique mix of say Dragon Age and Total War. Trying to take a stab at the genre is the first confusion, with the best description I can pinpoint as a strategy RPG. It’s a constant contradiction, a confusing melange of the good and the bad, and I kinda like it, I think. You’ll find yourself whisked off to a medieval fantasy land and then abruptly dumped you back into your own reality. It will make you wince and smile at the same moment. It’s an experience that will both frustrate and entice you. Like the political and military machinations in the land of Calradia, where Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord is set, answering the simple question of whether this is a game worth your time is, well, complicated.
