The modding community definitely played a huge role in keeping the series popular.
Not for me. I have only played base game.
@@uhuhuhv5407 Vanilla Warband is great, but boy there are some awesome mods out there.
@@DerRamantis *cries in console*
Dude mods are the only thing that kept this game going while they develop it for 10 years.
Prophesy of Pendor Gaming
I remember Finnish gaming magazine calling the original M&B "Mechanically clunky but ground breaking in game design" and they were not wrong.
I mostly played a GoT, LOTR, or Roman overhaul mods. Some really good times with warband, excited for some of the massive Bannerlord overhauls
completely agree with you brotha!
I’m currently playing fires of war(Greco-Persian war mod) and Gekokujo(Sengoku era Japan mod) on Warband and it’s still tons of fun even with no nostalgia or past experience playing the earlier games. Such a cool series with lots of great fanmade content behind it
I highly recommend "Age of Aurther", which is more of a Viking Age mod, but the extra options really give the game a different atmosphere
TLD mod is the besttt!!!
@@NunyaBusiness01L exactly bro exactly..
The warband music is ICONIC! As soon as it started playing, it took me right back to when I was younger! Great video mate!
A simpler time in Calradia.
Dahts a nice hed you hav on your shouldas
Out for a stroll are we

I disagree with the ending quite a bit. I think the release version serves as a stablepoint for mod purposes perhaps, but honestly I see Bannerlord as more of a forever game for the studio rather than something they publish and then abandon for another title. There is massive demand from the community for more features, and while mods are great, I think Taleworlds is definitely interested in making Bannerlord better for a long time.
I hope so, I love Bannerlord a lot. I wouldn't mind DLC content even, especially if it's a unique approach like I'm down for a Roman DLC for example. As a personal fan of the time period, I would like Three Kingdoms DLC too but I know that's a far stretch from happening. Would be more likely to see Ghenghis Khan with the Khuzaits. It's for the history lovers really. Which I think is a healthy portion of their player base. But at the same time if they do develop a new game, I'm sure it'll be just like the jump from Warband to Bannerlord, so it'd be well worth it too! As long as the franchise is still being updated or worked on in some capacity
@@WildWombats the empire are romans, eastern romans, but byzantines are romans.
Of course they're not abandoning the game. But they're not doing shit either. If you are a frequent visitor on the modding pages and install a few of them, chance is that you are gonna see some version of that aspect a year later in an official patch.
My favourite overhaul for Warband was and still is Prophesy of Pendor. Nothing rivals it in my opinion. The new map, the lore, the companions and factions, not to mention all the new mechanics it had. It was simply the peak of Warband in my opinion.
A relative close second is The last days of the third age. It's in my opinion not only one of the best Warband mods, but also one of the best Lord of the rings games that exist.
some fantastic mods
Honestly, Prophesy of Pendor is the best, but it lacks something essential, and that was the game's features taking so much time to shine.
So to me the best mod right now is perisno or warsword conquest.
L’Aigle, only problem there is, is that there are no wages…
@@historicalized-edits9080 That's literally a annoying part in the mod 😭
@@WorlWyrm IKR but its kinda fine if you like to use cheats and like to upgrade your soldiers, no 21212124 wages cost i guess
Still can't believe that serve as soldier didn't make it into full release with native support. I am sure being a retainer was part of pretty much every Warband conversion.
Everyone seems to forget about the clan system. It was a huge change over warband!
Yeah, it's makes relations easier to manage as the lords in them have shared opinion of you for what you did for their members. The fact it gives more control over your companions and family, like sending them out into separate parties. The clans basically add minor factions within the kingdoms.
@@AzureToroto about the opinions, I think it should have separate opinion meters. One for the clan and one for each noble, and the clan one would give a bonus to the individual ones, something like that, dunno
@@TheGmaxMan I can see that, the clan relation could be something like an average of every member's relation with you. Though, it would be interesting how that applies to player's own clan if the individuals had relation, probably be like warband where some companion may complain about pillaging if they are generous and leave if you proceed to do so.
@@AzureToroto this would bring a nice complexity to the system. I would love to see it
What a trip down memory lane, my gaming life developed with mount and blade so very fond of the whole series but what I’d give for one last siege hiding behind the walls before they where blown up and then defending the breach until the last man!
Just buy the new one lol
Mount And Blade, the greatest thing to come from Turkey since their delights
As someone who only came to the franchise in the last week, this seems like quite the ride for those long-term fans. Immensely impressed so far and have fallen into an addictive loop with this game in a way that I have forgotten about for decades.
Thank you to the developers, the modders, the players, and the reviewers who have delivered such a legacy to players like me!
I am the exact same brother, new to the community but have spent every hour after work playing or watching videos about it! I just love it
Your passion for this series is on display here in full. I have followed you and your coverage for a while ,this felt like your magnum opus video , bravo friend
super busy because of the release of bannerlord so saw your comment but only had time to heart it hence the late response. I really appriciate that, I think sometimes my love for the series gets lost in the content updates and mod reviews which at the end of the day I enjoy doing but they are mostly to help grow the channel etc, but every now and then want to do a super vid that probs wont bring it a new audience but gets to show off some of the bits I genuinly love about games etc. The next one should be on Rome total war aha
@@ResonantRTS as long as you got your playlists sorted, we will give them a watch! :]
Perisno, Pendor and Floris were, and still are my favourite mods. Can't wait to see them translated into Bannerlord!
Man warband was the most played game when I am in college, then it was skyrim, I will probably come back to bannerlord once the high fantasy mods releases, my favorite mods for warband are perisno and pendor, both are just phenomenal, especially pendor
Fantasy mount and blade back in the day sounds like my dream game. Thankfully mods can scratch that itch
Between empires for warband is an amazing mod, I highly recommend it. It not only changes the time period and makes it Europe, but also adds so much to faction management, economy, trade, military management, diplomacy, and even adds to battles an RTS mode you can switch back and forth from FPS mode
Just experienced the Khuzait Horse Archers on an open field thanks to my idiot ruler..... "DOTHRAKI ON AN OPEN FIELD NED!"
51:50 - I mean, Napoleonic Wars dlc for Warband started as a mod first under the name Mount and Musket.
For Bannerlord we got Sword & Musket mod incoming. Time will tell I guess.
dude its been 8 mın how the fuck??
I clicked on the Bannerlord segment as I've seen and lived through the entire history of Mount & Blade already. I wanted to hear more about his Bannerlord takes :P
@@user-cw7yi1ew1z lmao
guess you missed the warband section where I went into detail on Mount and Musket ;)
@@ResonantRTS I skipped that section when I commented initially so yeah my bad. Did finish watching the rest of the video :P
I would love them to do their own large scale mods for bannerlords. Maybe even some franchise stuff. Like Game of Thrones, or Lord of Rings, i also want co-op campaign. it needs to happen.
co-op campaign baby, this is what some of us are really waiting for!
Absolute favorite was/is Prophecy of Pendor. A high difficulty low fantasy setting with rogue armies, knight orders, custom kingdom and orders, a hidden elven city in the woods and beautiful textures and models.
The star wars mod was also something to be seen
Really Nostalgic to see this. I got both the old version and the first Cd release on mount and blade. Nice to see it get some coverage.
The first contact I had with mount and blade was on xbox, one day I saw it in the gamepass and I thought it looked a bit old but entertaining and my God that same day I started playing from 10 at night until 5 at early in the morning and I already had to go to work, from then until now I started looking for more games like this and bought all the games available on steam, it was totally worth it.
Same, started on Xbox with warband on the game pass and now I have over 500 hours on bannerlord on PC
I had such a good time watching this video! thankyou for the nostalgia and getting me excited to see what lies ahead in the future of mount and blade
It’s so satisfying riding a horse and swinging a sword around. And I think that really shows how good mount & blade is. It’s unique and no other game compares to the feel of it.
Really insightful thank you!
You even talked about my profile picture. I’m happy you ended up making the mount and blade documentary.
this was awesome video dude. I loved this chronicle.
Mount and Blade serie definitely one of the most important part of my childhood. I loved every part of the serie but Napoleonic wars was the most important for me . I met with a lot of international people there, i made a lot of friends and i still i am talking to some of them to this day. Line battles were amazing. When i get into my first line battle event, my mind was blown up. A lot of people with huge effort and synchronously doing what they have to do and fighting for their own regiment. It was an amazing experience. Thanks to thousands of people that i've fought side by side or against for making my childhood much better.
just finished watching the video bravo resonant!
Did you pause time
Thank you for this video. I am ‘new’ to this game and community. Only knew it since M&B2 Bannerlord. But i love the game. Already played over 3000hours it’s just amazing
here to show appreciation both for a the effort put into this synopsis and that mount and blade managed to release. truly a special game if not perfect, looking forward to continuing to see Bannerlord grow over the next couple years.
Not gonna lie. Never have I been proud to be a part of a community as much as I am happy with Mount and Blade community. Incredibly proud of it, shitposters that are extremely friendly and helpful. Playing since the first days of Mount and Blade, waiting every day for the release of Bannerlord. I can say one thing and one thing only, its been an incredible journey....that is yet to end.
The Mount and Blade series is so much fun. I can't express how much joy these games have given me in the past auf l six years. Thanks for writing this "love letter" in visual form, resonant!
Obviously, my favorites are With Fire and Sword, Bannerlord and Warband, but that does not mean I dislike the first title or the DLCs Viking Conquest and Napoleonic Wars.
Viking Conquest was my favorite. Played that basically until Bannerlord came out.
Viking Conquest was soooo good!
i did spend more time in there than with any other game of the series and i still wish bannerlord was more like VC.
still don´t know why they took out the beheading, of course it´s not necessary but medival swords game do need some gore in my eyes.
Floris was hands down my favorite mod for warband (I've played a lot of them as well) and actually I paused this video literally seconds before you started talking about mods (that damn music) went and downloaded warband and booted up the floris mod just for a nostalgia hit, I immediately opened up the in-game troop trees and thought to myself "yah that's the stuff!"......I recruited 7 mighty troops headed back to the town I started in as I received a message of a tourney being held there, was about to enter the town then got attacked by 12 dastardly t4 deserters that cleverly hid themselves under the sprite of the town that I did not notice until it was too late and thus the grand adventures of Gus and his band of mighty men came to a close as all things must.
I've followed Mount and Blade since 0.750/0.751, although as just a pup I wasn't able to buy the game until sometime a little after Warband came out. If I remember correctly the trial version(s?) was only limited by a level cap of like 5 or 10, but my little middle schooler heart certainly fit some adventures into countless very short, very similar adventures in the vicinity of the Free City of Zendar.
Pretty sure Warband was legitimately the first purchase I made once I had access to the dangerous power of a debit card number. It's been so much fun to watch it grow over the years, I can't say I've played every version, but I've certainly enjoyed observing the rise, fall, and occasionally rise again of various mods in that span of time.
And regardless of in-game fate, Zendar will always live free (And) rent-free in my heart.
Mount and blade legend - Resonant!
Mount and Blade and Red Orchestra 1 were amazing games at the time given the computer I had at the time. Now I'm blown away by Bannerlord. So cool to see this series grow.
Awesome Documentary!
This is one of my favorite series, the first to do what I wanted since the 80s... an immersive medieval simulator. Add to it the mod support that transform it to literally anything, it is one of the greatest series of all time which I can play even the oldest entry even today and have them all consistently installed
Great videos, good stuff
nice content man
I love these kind of videos :] ❤
my first M&B experience was trial version somewhere 0.8xx that you could play only for, i bet, an hour or so. Only Swadians and Vaegir and mysterious Black Khergit. There was also Samurai armor set hidden scattered around cities.
From that time i was always up to date with development.
Long way this game have gone trough to be what we got today in Bannerlord. Im do glad to watch it from these humble beginnings
Really cool video describing all the changes
I started MNB on xbox back in 2017. Had no idea what it was beforehand, was hesitant at first but eventually spent hundreds of hours on native alone. So many good memories. It wasn’t until 2020 that I’d have a pc and finally play around with all of the mods. I still play this game religiously to this day and am grateful they released a console version, otherwise I probably would’ve never knew about one of my now favorite games of all time
Warband multiplayer is some of the best gaming experience I have ever had. Both Warband and Napoleonic Wars multiplayer.
When it came to Warband, Star Wars Conquest was my go-to. It feels bare bones in some regards, maybe due in part to available tools and the engine, yet there's always a joy to taking control of a galaxy with a new Droid army or defeating Vader on the battlefield.
Soooo many memories..mainly Napoleonic Wars and North and South Mod. Love this gem of a game.
I remember when i got M&B demo, It was the full game, but locked to level 7. i got super addicted to it. And i remember everyone going crazy in the old forum i used to go to.
On mutliplayer I played a lot of the Civil War mod North and South. I played with the regiment of the 14WV and have many great memories with those guys. We were a scourge of melee and had a sick Cav brigade as well. So much fun and such a great mod!
Great video!!
The music in Warband and Viking Conquest is the best!
This is cool. I never knew I wanted this until I saw this video.
Gekokujo was always one of my favorit mods and one of the first i played LOTR and roman overhaul was mods i came to love later but they also has a special place in my heart
Warband truly was an awesome time to be a teen, but my god that unlocked a core memory, fuuuuuuuck the cattle quests
And Napoleonic wars is goat
I have a very vivid memory of having a battle in warband and more of my men died to my archers than the enemy soldiers
Nova aetas just love the realism even if its bugged some times
I would look into Viking Conquest II. There are plenty of historical scenarios this engine would do a great job with, especially with overhead management. Thanks for making this. Thanks for cleaning up your language, some.
great video bro
Wow, this changes everything.
Most of what you said about tournaments in Bannerlord is also true for Warband. The only differences are: a prize item and clearly visible tournament tree, which made it clear when you can continue the tournament if you are knocked out (in Warband it was rng if you were last one to die)
In Warband it is more like a last chance: if you kill at least 1 enemy and having high enough renown, the game would give you 1 last chance to prove yourself. Of course, if you lost in the semi-final onwards then you are out completely.
@@angquangnguyenthac2833 i do remember that to trigger this you have to also be the last in your team and against many opponents.
@@nickgotvyak5890 you dont need to be the last one on the team tho. But the second chance is only available in the first 2 rounds, AND you need 100+ renown for it.
I never played this game back in the day. Age of Empires 1 & 2 were my go-to during the late 90s, which my parents bought for me from PC World (oh, the memories!). I only started playing when Bannerlord got released and now I'm kind of gutted I missed out on the original Mount & Blade days.
I loved playing the Warhammer mod for Warband. I had an army of 200 some Khorne knights that I just steamrolled most armies with.
And there are so many other great mods.
I think Nat Geo should hire you, this was an incredible video
Love the flute in warband need it to be my text notification sound
man this is my first game on steam, it was dirt cheap when i got it, and still playing it today. clocked in 2k hrs
Been loveing this on ps4 looking foward to getin the 2nd one!
I first found out about Mount and Blade Warband back in 2015 on RUclips and was amazed by the gameplay! I had them dig into several series following the game and the mods associated with it such as Star Wars Conquest. I hadn’t been able to play it because I was on game consoles still, but once I found out that it was coming out on Xbox in later 2016, I quickly pre-ordered it counting down the days! After playing the original base game, I had the desire to learn how to play the mods hoping that it could be implemented onto Xboxes, but was saddened after months trying to find solutions only to accept the fact it couldn’t be done… I kept playing the game and watching the gameplay of my favorite mods trying to learn all about them that I could. It wasn’t until in 2020 when Covid happened and my time in the Marine Corps was in a weird state as I was in the Reserves and the military couldn’t have us showing up to base so we had to do training online, so I HAD TO get a PC! I got a PC from my dad that was from 2009 and it had just the basic capabilities to play some mods to the minimal settings that were super laggy, but it was all super slow… I still loved it! About a year ago (2022) I decided to buy a nice laptop on the market as I was finally making a decent bit after serving my time in the military and wanted to learn coding, though the game was more of the real why! Since then I have loved playing all the mods out there on the game both Warband and Bannerlord! Bannerlord has been pretty difficult having to customize each mod to be ordered properly, so I’ve taken a break, but I still love the Mount and Blade games and can’t wait for more mods to come out! I am currently loving Warsword Conquest the most on Warband and I am looking forward to LotR on Bannerlord hopefully in a year or two!!!! It surprises people to find out all I play is Mount and Blade anymore, but no other games interest me enough the way the missing community has on these games!! Also does anybody have any knowledge on how to access the Skyrim: Civil War mod? I know it got taken down due to copyright issues, but I hope someone out there hasn’t given up on getting ahold of it and found it!
15 years later I have over 3k hours logged across all 3 games (most are on bannerlord). God bless mount and blade ❤
I remember getting home as soon as possible to play m&b warband
Great video. Always chose the nords in warband personally.
I love how his first prototype is even using Comic Sans as a font. You can tell this guy's got a sense of humor.
I've played the series since the OG mount and blade, and its been a great ride. The mod developers cant be denied their role in the series success, and props to TaleWorlds for fostering such a community rather than squashing it. Even to the point of hiring them to make those DLC! The journey is far from over, development on Bannerlord will continue to trickle in for years I'd imagine and maybe some stand alones, and then surely another entry into the series in another decade or two 😂
Nova Aetas was my favorite overhaul mod for Warband, it was so good
Great video
0:04 I also studied there at Bilkent! Definitely one of the best education institutions in Turkey.
My favorite Overhaul is easily Aut Caesar Aut Nihil.
It was a Mod where you could rise from a Lowly Legionary in the Roman Legions and eventually rise up to the title of Roman Emperor.
Along the way you could get Mythic Items like the Shield Aegis, Julius Caesar's Gladius, Thunder and Lighting (A Bow and a Arrow Set). And they made the Roman Empire it's self very unique by having 3 types of Vassals in the Roman Empire while also having a Government. Im telling you bro it's great and you should try it out.
I just started getting into M&B and was looking for mods to get started with, will definitely look into trying that one out!
I remember doing regular mount & blade multiplayer online training sessions. Maaan that was a time. Early 2010s were so different from 2020s
re, favorite Warband total conversion, I spent more time than I'd care to admit playing Gekokujo.
I finally bought Bannerlord after playing Warband for ages! I mostly play the overhaul mods, such as Gekokujo and Warsword Conquest. Can't wait for Gekokujo or a potential Three Kingdoms to come to Bannerlord!
Good stuff
Unironically undead leaders showing up as a challenge after total map control or something would be sick, just skeleton models of normal troops or something, or full of bone troops, Skeleton Lucon, itd be fun
New vid yay
I was a huge warband fan and forgot about bannerlord. I just bought the game because of this video
I played original M&B and it was great for its time. Great memories
I remember playing mount and blade back in 2010
Around 2018 i was surprised the game was still alive and enjoyed warband and viking invasion
I remember the days spent screaming at my troops to give me room before getting pushed off the siege ladders and loosing all of my health
Can we just appreciate the FPS at 1:46!
Warband was a lot of fun. Having a 100 relations with a village was the shit - I regularly recruited Swadian Man at arms from those villages. And my first multiplayer experience was getting punched to death as a fully armored knight by a naked guy😅
Nice video! I've been playing M&B since version 0.731, and it's always a unique experience.
However, in your discussion about modding, you missed an important detail: without mods, warband would have been much different.
A user named Nijis came up with the fantastic mod titled "Battle for Sicily", back for version 0.751 - when M&B was still just Vaegirs and Swadians duking it out, and the occasional Black Knight.
Battle for Sicily added villages, armies, raids, castle sieges, and an early system of diplomacy. It was a HUGE step forward, and Nijis himself was hired by TW, and became one of the lead writers and designers of the campaign aspect of the game, possibly stirring the franchise towards the semi-historical identity it has now.
In more than one way, modding made the game what it is today.
There was also the American couple that made a mod based on 1066 and began selling it, which was kind of illegal and caused a lot of drama on the forums, but I don't remember the details.
Also, the split with Paradox (another massive drama in the forums) was mostly due to PDX releasing War of the Roses, a direct competitor to M&B. This wasn't seen very favourably by the developers and the fanbase, and eventually led to TW going on its own.
Very nice!
If i had any experience with modding/coding then id 100% make a banner lord mod that gets rid of the map and most menus. Take full advantage of all those carefully made maps and town/village scenes. Would make battles more organic, it would make things like horses and stuff more important and also add in other environmental things/options that would flesh out the idea. Such as scouts, or "looting" a town is actually important. Spotting enemy/friendly armies is the only way you can identify where people are on the map. So its possible you can avoid a massive army simply because your walking through a forest or your between some hilly terrain. just loads of different stuff that would totally change the game.
I remember how I discovered mount and blade warband was on Xbox game pass I thought the graphics were bad and so did my friends but when I downloaded it the graphics didn’t matter about the graphics but the gameplay were amazing and I really enjoyed it
a mount and blade battle between 50 knights and 500 zombies sounds pretty damn fun ngl
I remember playing the og mount and blade it was the first time I experienced snowballing 1000 days into campaign i was well established in the world with diehard allies and bitter enemies i'd take up arms for the vaigers claimant and the realm trembled at my might. I chewed through half the map before my save was lost.
i've sent talworlds a couple emails over the years and my most recent one was about the endgame, talked about multiple different things they should do and how dramatically improving the game once a year or so with large content updates will contiue to drive growth. This is my first time watching this vid somhow it slipped through my radar but your last few words is exactly what they need to do. And well they did buy a new studio so they aren't stopping the development cycle anytime soon.
I haven’t gotten any mods for it yet but the Old World mod that takes it to warhammer fantasy looks like the best thing in existence
As a Bilkent undergraduate, I’m proud that I studied in Armagan's university.
