I think there’s true magic to the game, but a lot of that can collide with nostalgia. I still play it waiting for bannerlord and I still have a blast, even though I’ve been playing it for 3 years now.
@@jumpyg1258 Most of the lords at the beginning of the campaign (or maybe all of them, i am not sure) aren't random generated. However, as the years pass you'll see the new ones that the game generates as far as i know.
As someone who miraculously only discovered Warband in 2017, I am able to to assert with the utmost certitude that no nostalgia is required to fully enjoy this absolute (albeit slightly unrefined) gem of a game.
I do like that they are trying to make things more "believable" with the whole family aspect. Let's be honest, warband is really lacking in that department. Which does make the game a bit boring after a while. Bannerlord too, but it already takes a lot longer with those mini games they added.
Imagine how hectic a koifish hosted multiplayer event with fans would be. Just 60 people doing Swedish accents screaming that’s a nice head you have on your shoulders. That would leave everyone with shattered eardrums
I bought Warband a month ago after I got a new gaming PC and its one of the bestgame I've ever played. The Massive battles, fun characters and faction wars make up an experience I've never played anywhere else. Its truly a classic and I hope you never stop making awesome content about such a masterpiece.
The base game is great for what it is - a template for modders to create their own, more in-depths worlds. Haven't played it in a while, but I think I spent more time on this game than any other.
Totally agree to this video, I was hoping that bannerlord would just add features to the allready existing ones from warband and ofcourse improve the graphics, but sadly they tried to change it too much for my liking. Maybe bannerlord will be fun with enough mods for me at some point but I think that will take 1 or 2 more years... crazy to think that I was a 15yo young kid when I was first hyped about bannerlord and now I'm allready a 21yo adult.... warband will forever have a place in my heart which bannerlord will probably never be able to replace.
@@KristofKarwinskithegreat-se5pu That's actually how POP is designed to be played. The main quest such as it is involves alliance with the Noldor. You can ignore it and sandbox however you want though. It's not a coincidence there are two books that improve Noldor relations and not for any other faction.
Bro, I was so hyped when i saw this video, I literally have 108hrs of gameplay on this game, addictive, and an ultimately great game, thanks for the video!
I remember the first time I completely conquered the map, I too worshipped our Lord and savior jeremus, he loved me too so I made him a vassal of my newly founded kingdom but no, he didn't want to be a vassal he wanted everything, he defected and went with the desert people. My kingdom was on the verge of ruin but somehow I convinced an elderly swan man with 200 troops to join my 1 fief kingdom. Fuck jeremus
i put hundreds of hours into warband and am well on my way to doing the same in bannerlord. bannerlord has a lot more to do in the base game, and feels much more open ended, while i also feel a lot more involved in the affairs of the kingdoms and more in control of my own kingdom. you’re absolutely right about the mods, but i think bannerlord will catch up in that regard, tons of cool mods in development already that i’ve heard about
I like how right after Koifish was going to say that the game didn't have any bugs, not only was he viewing the back of his shield instead of the merchant, but also when he went onto the overworld map, the oceans were nothing but literal cow-water (which is a bug that frequently happens to me as well)
I only recently started playing warband because I had been watching some of your ck3 vids and discovered your warband ones. I found out it was on Xbox game pass and I can confirm it is just a good game. I have been playing the shit out of it, thanks koifish.
i just started playing it before i play bannerlord, and im just gonna say it i dont think i will be alive by the time i get bored with this game, its one of the greatest ive ever played, and i regret never taking recommendations on it, its definitely not just nostalgia, its one of the most addicting games ive come across
I just recently did a "Antiviking" run in Viking Conquest, starting as a Frisian, siding with the English in the Storyline, buying 6 Skeids and then taking Friese back from those a-holes with as much prejudice as possible. Now when Danes in Ribe look at the sea at night, they pray to Odin that the "Frisian Reaper" is not coming to their shore. So yeah, until bloc singlehandedly finishes the work TW has started, I may play Bannerlord from time to time, but Warband is still my favorite.
Ah yes, Köífïsh plays Warband again... We have the great knights of Swadia, which always declare war against everyone before sitting down and having a feast, and losing all of their lands. Then we got the Rodocks... Maybe they take one Swadian castle and wreck the sarranids before settling down and deflecting all sieges with their braindead crossbowmen and glaives. Then the sarranids, sand bois. You'll never see them because they usually get wrecked in less than a week. They suck anyway. Then you got the kerghs. Or however you spell that shit, all you gotta know is they have horse archers and nobody likes horse archers so dollar store Kahn survives the whole game. Then you got Vageirs. Or the Russians, great archers. But the Nords are better, consider them dead in about a week. Then you have the Nords, strong axe bois. Usually bully everyone on the map
Rhodok strategy: Find hill Put men on top of hill Wait Win But for real, the rhodoks are the closest thing to the roman legion in warband, thanks to their big ass board shield
When I bought the Warband game I thought it would be interesting to play an old game but I loved the game so much that I bought the complete set. I was one of the first to buy Banorlord when it came out because I loved Warband so I got this game too. I will buy any game they bring to the table.
I bought Bannerlord as soon as it hit Steam. Years waiting since M&B 1 and thousands of hours played in Warband. After one week I dropped Bannerlord and have not gone back yet. I still play Warband mods.
I love this game bring in your mates and just get stuck in, i recorded a few vids on this game had so much fun with it. great video good content buddy 👍👍👍👍
I love warband so much! I haven't been able to play Bannerlord that much because of graphical restrictions on my laptop, but I've got almost 900 hours in Warband. The crazy thing isbI haven't finished a file. I've never fully conquered Calradia. My only complaint is that I always fall back into roughly the same build, but it's still fun as hell to be the sharpest of shooters with a bow and nearly unkillable in combat. Combine that with Native's busted ass Swadian Knights and you have a combo that is literally able to go 25 vs 300 in major battles and come out with the worst casualties being injuries or maybe a death or two. I love Warband. Easily one of my favorite games of all time.
One of my only problems with Bannerlord is how difficult it is to keep your army alive. There is no surgery skill so your men die a lot more often. If they added perks to mend that issue, I'd play more Bannerlord
Warband is really really fun. Definitely love the fact it has a bunch of mods. I also do enjoy the dlc that comes with it like Viking Conquest which is basically warband but it wants you dead and will make you wish you didn’t play.
I really love Warband and still enjoying the game these days, but I think that Bannerlord (even if it'll need a lot of work) can be as good and diversified even in the mods as Warband ! So yeah, loving Warband isn't nostalgia, but I can't hate Bannerlord, I like it too !
I was gonna rage about how completely pleb-click-bait-shit-take tastic that title was with the assumption that it was some stupid video essay, with lo-fi music and then- ---- and then --- I realized it was koifish. And I clicked. My man
I remember playing fire and sword at 2019 for the first time and it was one of the few games that made me feel a legit awsome and weird feeling for a old game it's legit really good
The best multiplayer mod for Warband, Full Invasion 2, is about to get an update. For that thing alone the game is worth a shot. Also when you pick it up for $ 7 on steam it's probably the best money spent to content ratio you can get in a game, second only to the likes of minecraft.

Bannerlord is easily better than Warband in the vacuum of vanilla singleplayer but it will take years to be better than Warband as a whole.
Congratulations on the expansion of your estate, Baron Koifishsson!

Jkjk love ur content mate

I'm so early that even Jeremus hasn´t been knocked out yet
Impossible
I made my Jeremy's a beast, he literally dosnt die all the time in a battle now
@@falconstoryman to do that you need to literally have him behind the recruits
*Jeremus has been knocked unconscious*
I made Jeremus into a horse archer and he wrecked such face.
Warband has Jeremus, Bannerlord has not. Seems like an easy choice of which one is the best for me
They really messed up with these random generated NPC's instead of having characters with some depth to them.
@@jumpyg1258 I usually make my own storylines with the generated characters although I do miss Jeremus
I would say you're right but Jeremus wasn't available for comment, something about being a knock-out?
Warband has nervous man but bannerlord is not
@@jumpyg1258 Most of the lords at the beginning of the campaign (or maybe all of them, i am not sure) aren't random generated. However, as the years pass you'll see the new ones that the game generates as far as i know.
The question is rather simple: can my potato run Bannerlord?
And until it can, Warband all the way.
I would consider upgrading. I've heard tofu is the way to go
Bruh my potato cant even ran warband on high settings
I don't even know how unmodded vanilla Warband is supposed to run like!!!
hell yeah
Geforce Now is pretty useful when it comes to potato computers actually

I didn’t even know about warband until 2018, I’ve only played it on Xbox so I’m waiting til the end of this year for bannerlord
@@crabbing27 I feel as though I’ll enjoy bannerlord more on Xbox than I did with pc tbh just with how the game plays

Sorry bannerlord but warband will always stay first in my heart.

Just started a whole new campaign. Won’t ever stop playing warband
"You stick out more than a person that smells nice at a Smash convention."
Hello, police? Yes I'd like to report a murder.
A mass murder
I still have PTSD from starting off and running into like 12 groups of sea raiders and how much of a pain they were to deal with when you start
My guy koifish at the warband again
Love the Forgotten Weapons reference... He should do one about Warband being a (unjustly) Forgotten Game
Last time I was this early, it was almost harvesting season
Well i have good news for you, it's almost harvesting season!
0:34 it says in turkish: "post malone plays m&b, best turkish videogame"
The base game is great for what it is - a template for modders to create their own, more in-depths worlds.
Haven't played it in a while, but I think I spent more time on this game than any other.
There have always been that many sea raiders. As a Nord it's considered lucky if you beat the first quest without having to fight 5 sea raider groups.
You didn't even mention napoleonic wars, that's also still going strong.
To be honest, I got into warband in 2020 and still love the game. So for me it's just a great video game, not nostalgia
Still one of the best games that I continue to play to this very day. In fact it's the only game that entertains me the most.
I never stopped playing warband. It is and always will be in my heart. I had too much fun in that game...

The warband is the one of ten master work in the game univers.
What are the other nine?
@@crabbing27 for me, the first four metal gear solid, the dead space, doom, the outer words, space engineers and the star wars republic commando.

Getting over being sick with Covid so life's been sucking but WAIT I see a new Koifish video! Day is now good.
So nice, mention to do another warband video in that project zomboid video month or two ago...glad to see you did one.

Just found out about warband last year, don't have any nostaliga for it. Still an epic game.
Can confirm that it damn good. Started playing in 2020, so I don’t have nostalgia yet.
Your channel popular because of your early warband videos! Dont forget WARBAND!!!!
When I bought the Warband game I thought it would be interesting to play an old game but I loved the game so much that I bought the complete set. I was one of the first to buy Banorlord when it came out because I loved Warband so I got this game too. I will buy any game they bring to the table.

I didn’t even start playing war and until 2016 and now have over 2500 hours. no nostalgia here, the mods are just amazing.
Started in 2019, games a bloody gem!
Warband is love,warband is life
I love this game bring in your mates and just get stuck in, i recorded a few vids on this game had so much fun with it. great video good content buddy 👍👍👍👍
I started playing warband in 2019, and I say with confidence, this game ROCKS!
this game looks really sick and this video has helped me make my decision to buy it
As someone who didn't get to play Mount and Blade Warband until years later, I can say that it's simply good...
pls switch words when you make the yoda voice XD nice video, much nostalgic
Me Being a poor console player who never stopped playing Warband.
It’s better don’t worry
Bro i bought it last week and didn’t even know it was on ps4 and im hooked im in the same boat as u tho
I just bought this game today ... Hoping I have fun playing it now
You play Warband because you prefer it over Bannerlord, I play warband because im too broke to afford bannerlord. We are NOT the same.
I love warband so much! I haven't been able to play Bannerlord that much because of graphical restrictions on my laptop, but I've got almost 900 hours in Warband. The crazy thing isbI haven't finished a file. I've never fully conquered Calradia. My only complaint is that I always fall back into roughly the same build, but it's still fun as hell to be the sharpest of shooters with a bow and nearly unkillable in combat. Combine that with Native's busted ass Swadian Knights and you have a combo that is literally able to go 25 vs 300 in major battles and come out with the worst casualties being injuries or maybe a death or two. I love Warband. Easily one of my favorite games of all time.

Imagine doing a self "investment" and then making a poor life choise and fighting a whole team. Investment successful XD
Keep in mind. It's not only native! Many of the people who prefer warbands just love mods like Prophesy of Pendor, Warsword Conquest, etc.
And thus the empire of Koi Pond was formed

Warband is really really fun. Definitely love the fact it has a bunch of mods. I also do enjoy the dlc that comes with it like Viking Conquest which is basically warband but it wants you dead and will make you wish you didn’t play.
Warband is poggers. I'll get Bannerlord when I get a new computer. Speaking of which - I HAVE A NAPOLEONIC WAR EVENT FOR M&B WITH THE 61E REGIMENT
still a good game and has great mods for it. Warsword Conquest is one that I really love and would love to see you try out
I really love Warband and still enjoying the game these days, but I think that Bannerlord (even if it'll need a lot of work) can be as good and diversified even in the mods as Warband !
So yeah, loving Warband isn't nostalgia, but I can't hate Bannerlord, I like it too !
I have 1.3k hours in war and and play everyday! Modded is where it’s at. Prophecy of pendor is my favorite mod, for sure.

Everyone wanna talk about how cool the Finns were during the war, nobody wants to talk about what side they were on...
your new house has a very comfortable attic mr koifish
Bannerlord is cool but its missing the fun goofy charm of warband
Your opinion is correct I still play viking conquest and awoiaf mod from time to time and damm is it good

Then end up sinking like 36 hours in until i realize I haven't gotten off it
I still like it for Napoleonic Wars, that will never go out of style. Good drinking fun.
