Mount & Blade Review

Mount & Blade is a difficult game to score. Taleworlds have to be applauded for the freedom, the realism, and the sheer amount of detail included in the game. However, Mount & Blade is also a little rough and at times feels unfinished. The interior environments are all drab and grey, while outdoor environments are often barren. No imagination at all has gone into the character or world design, which is a pity. The boring interactions and generic quests mean that interest would be quickly lost if it wasn't for the decent combat and sheer amount of stuff you can do. My advice is, if you prefer realism over fantasy, and freedom over narrative, then Mount & Blade will probably stoke your fire.
