Hi, I'm Zarj, I'm new here, and if you've never tried Mount & Blade, you have to give it a shot. The game is all about midevil combat.
Not gonna line, the graphics are garbage, it's buggy, and the plot is non-existant, but the combat is unlike anything you have ever seen before. It's like an FPS / LOTR mix. Nothing is quite as satisfying as charging through a horde of infantry and tearing them apart (oh, and that's another thing about M&B - basically the only game to get cavlary combat right). Google it, download the demo for free, give it a shot. I garauntee you will enjoy it, even if it gets boring after you've killed peasant #1376.
