I can rely to this, pretty much the same feeling when I'm watching old 75e videos, bring back a shit tons of memories.
However the more time passing the more I see people going on with affirmations such as "They will obviously make a NW on Bannelord" or also quite often "Someone is already working on a DLC/Mod for Bannelord on NW". I'm a bit concerned that most of those times those people have litteraly no idea what they talking about.
What we have so far is what Taleworlds accepted to give us, knowing what there is in the developper blogs and what was seen at the PC Gamer weekend at London. That's pretty much about it. Anyone saying anything else is basicaly stuff based on speculations, which isn't really helpful, I guess everyone will agree on that.
Now, I'm not an expert of Taleworlds but from what I've been understanding Vincenzo has been the one making the mod Mount and Musket, for Warband, and Taleworlds bought them the rights to make the DLC Napoleonic Wars, which if Vincenzo took part in its creation, remain entitled as the Taleworlds Brand. However, Vincenzo parted away with Talewords around 4 years ago when he created the Flying Squirrel Forums, which isn't under Taleworlds Authority, and was made with the Battle Cry of Freedom in minds, a game which Taleworlds had nothing to do with. Again, that's what I've understood from discussions but that might be more complicated than that. If someone got a better version from what I've said, feel free to post.
What I try to show is that I highly doubt that Vincenzo, who created NW for Warband, will be here to do the same when Bannelord comes out. The main base of Talewords's fan is based on the singleplayer, everyone know that. They know they also have a huge fan base in the multiplayer but nearly every multiplayer played a bit of singleplayer while the contrary isn't true. Given the time they are actually spending releasing their game, I think it's pretty safe to assume that Taleworlds has no plans on doing it, or actually doing it quick fast, or if they do, they showed no interst of making it clear for anyone. If you've proof of the contrary, please share them.
Same with people saying someone is already coding a NW for Bannelord. I would be actually quite curious to know who it is given nobody has access to the files yet. I've love that this was actually true but I really doubt so.
Anyways, I hope someone will make a module for Bannelord, as there is a huge community waiting for it, but I don't think we have to take it for granted, as it is not obvious as it seems.
