I really like this game. I hope they're not TOO put off by the graphics.
MassiveDuckon May 3, 2010 at 9:01 a.m.
i love quick looks of games i never heard of
Citizengameron May 3, 2010 at 9:06 a.m.
I've been looking forward to this -- Mount & Blade is strangely addictive despite the graphics.
Vinchenzoon May 3, 2010 at 9:06 a.m.
Levio would be proud.

GOD DAMN IT!!!

I love the original Mount and Blade. I still play it from time to time. Let's see if I should invest in the expansion!

Dave brings the greatest games to these quick looks.

Damnit Dave. This game sounds extremely neat. I am glad GB has somebody like you on the staff ready to show off the more overlooked, but really unique PC games.
 
I didn't realize there was only one Mount and Blade before this expansion (I assumed it was an older series). I'll definitely be looking forward to Mount and Blade 2.
 
I might pick this up during a Steam sale.

This game looks really bad, but the physics-based system seem cool

How the fuck is that horse still moving. 3 arrows sticking out of your leg must hurt like a bitch! 
 
EDIT": How is that dude still alive with a HUGE FUCKING LANCE in his back!? I actually love this game ;)

YES FINALLY!!

Far too much of a distance between QL's featuring Dave!

this game looks really interesting. I hope they get some revenue and make their next game with better graphics. I am also interested in the latter part of the game where you have your own castles and such. 
Anyway GOOD QUICK LOOK :D

You'll notice that there is a separate health bar for your horse than from your character. Once your horse dies, you have to huff it on foot until you buy a new one. Horses come in various types, from speedy to decked out in armor. Say what you want about the graphics, it's a fairly deep, but still accessible game.

I got this game last weekend and played 5 hours straight. The multiplayer is so fun! It's the multiplayer Warhammer Online should have had (but I don't know how it'd translate to an MMO).
