Updates keeps the game alive and veterans interested. With no updates, the long-time-motivation will suffer -> End of NW

You dont need updates.. Just play a NW mod and you have more features, then in vanilla NW ;)

Although I don't believe the game is dying mods can only do so much my friend. They can't truly create a new troop class for people to play as or modify stats. Should clarify by that I mean stuff like enhancement mods.

Yeah but that's entirely leaving out total conversions.

NW Mod, LOLOLOL. 90% of all NW mods lag and crash the server with 200 player events.

I've played N&S and Blood And Iron Events with those numbers and there was nothing like that at all.

NW is pretty unstable around 200 players anyway, so it is hardly the fault of the mods.

Don't forget bear force events that people tried to get to NW event numbers.... didnt work.

They fixed it in Bear Force. They did in Iron Europe also. The community just decided to kill the mods anyway.

This community sadly has quite a short attention span or doesn't quite get into some mods, hence the really short life of them.

Which is a shame considering how much work that has been put into these things.

Because that point hasn't been brought up before in the last 12 pages.

Numbers got a boost from the sales but the event side of things it seems it might only be short lived.

The community events are certainly dying off anyway. And now it is hard to get into the popular ones as it seems not enough people or regiments really want to bother hosting.

The problem I see is that there are way to many events hosted by a bunch of different regiments. That and the hosts have a fairly... dictatorial fashion of running their events.

This thread is really depressing me...
Nobody wants the game to die. We have all played and loved it every step of the way but we eventually have to face the facts.
It's an old game with an old engine set in a period which has a very small following. It was never going to be hugely well known because of taleworlds limited budget. The game has survived a while already due to mods and the resourcefulness of the community.
We can try to increase the playerbase but in my opinion it just won't happen due to the reasons stated above. It's time that we stop dwelling on the fact that the game is slowly dying and look to the next stage of the community-battle cry of freedom and Bannerlord.
(I know all of this has already been mentioned but I just thought I would share my opinion)

Probably get a mute for this but...

Remember threads like this close to five years ago?
