    Mount and Blade played with some of the best mods is insanely fun! Undoubtedly, one of the best games I have played to date.. This game is a hidden gem of gold. If you like the genre and still don't have it, make no mistake and grab it right now.

    Can't wait for Mount and Blade 2 to come out!

    just recently discovered this diamond amongst indie games and i love it. The by far best mounted combat sim (not RPG) i have ever seen. Don't expect pretty graphics or a compelling storyline, but if you're into realistic medieval combat this is the Game you are looking for.
    I would give it a 10/10 but M&B:Warband is even better and i'm missing a multiplayer mode which allows you not only

    Best medieval open-world RPG there is. With a little imagination and love for the Dark Ages you'll play this game for hundreds of hours. There's also an extensive modding community, the best one i've ever encountered.

    Personally I love the game one of the best I have played. I would say its a must play. The combat is very exciting and full of action.The single player Campaign is really unique and fun and fresh.The rush of joining your men in battle is Awesome. Giving a more interactive experience.I feel that Mount And Blade has Bags full of potential and could make heads turn in the future.

    Perfect in almost every way. Deep, rewarding, challenging, plain fun and more. The graphics may be lackluster, but who cares- there are graphic improvement mods. Played this for around 60-70 hours in a month, bought some other games but always came back. Almost guilty I got it free from GOG.

    Ахуительная игра! Скоро выйдет вторая часть, и она тоже будет ахуительная!) Все кто не играл, играть обязательно. Даже спустя 10 лет с релиза она лучше современных высеров игроиндустрии!

    One of the best medieval life and battle games out there. Building your own army and fighting alongside it in a real time battle was a great experience. The swordplay and weapons make sense, and are very intuitive.

    While not without its cons, the game is addictive and very fun to play.

    Я играл в эту игру ещё в 2014 уже тогда ночами не спал. Потом попробовал другие модули... Поставили огнем и мечом и опять сон долой.... После был модуль star wars conquest ситуация повторилась.... Прошло несколько лет. И в 2019 захотелось вспомнить былое и вот ещё +70 часов игры. Просто клас. Рекомендую!!!Я играл в эту игру ещё в 2014 уже тогда ночами не спал. Потом попробовал другие модули... Поставили огнем и мечом и опять сон долой....

    Знаковая игра из детства , можно стать - кем угодно. Боёвка и картинка - конечно кривые, но играть - очень интересно.

    Это одна из первых игр моего детства. И, несмотря на возраст и недостатки, о которых я сейчас узнаю от других, она не кажется мне плохой

    A Medieval action RPG with a great battle system, and there are many ways you can play the game. The game doesn't have a storyline, which is why it becomes a bit boring and pointless after a while, but it does have many good mods and they will keep the game fresh. [Sept 2008]

    A fantastic game. It's hampered by a few problems, but nothing major. It provides ground breaking gameplay that I am sure will be imitated by others.

    For a game with such a heavy emphasis on medieval combat, Mount & Blade is just shy of perfection.
