      The only real lag happens in menus. Especially once you've been playing for a few hours.

      BattleAI is way worse than shown off, sieges are only half ass implemented, everything is unbalanced, half the perks don't work at all, all the npc faces/face animations look disgusting, not enough quests, no freelancer, being a mercenary needs fixing, villages you conquer are bugged, can't create own kingdom, main story doesn't work, only 1% of voice acting done, factions still snowballing the entire map, cavalry combatAI is still shit (cant use spears/polearms properly) etc. etc.

    How can you call it Bannerlord and not have flag carriers in your army? If they added company banners and give you the ability to designate morale/give orders via flags (like they used to in the olden times) that would be a great bonus. Imagine having the ability to give orders based on what flags your army has left - including the ability to pick it up yourself to rally your troops - then carrying it on your horse and charging forward. Another suggestion is to add musicians like buglers and drummers to give orders. I think you gave a review about a Napoleonic war game and there you said the ability to give orders is based on getting messengers or officers to actually deliver messages to other parts of your army. Maybe these 2 suggestions are too ambitious but so far the game looks very promising so far and I agree with your review.

    You should put your archers infront, as they now automatically skirmish backwards as the enemy gets close. They are also more hesitant to shoot over friendly troops.

    One of the things I appreciate the most about M&B is how ez they have made modding it, and how many great mods kept me playing Warband for years. In many ways a lot of the mods added better content and UI than vanilla, now that Bannerlord is starting with so much done right, I can't wait to see how some mods can even improve on it. I haven't looked into it much yet, but seems like Taleworlds has made tools and modding even more powerful for creators too!
    In today's game environment where so many studios are becoming restrictive with such things, I'm thankful Bannerlord is shaping up to be more than I had hoped and supporting the mod community, the mods were have already is amazing for alpha, and the full conversions coming I know will just blow me away.
