Also depends on how lucky you are with pearls, I've seen people gather 5 or more per day.


Ouch, misread the currency symbol. That makes it a little bit better. Still, if 1 pearl is worth 5€ then you'd want to find at least 2 per hour for it to be better than flipping burgers.

I just need 1 per 3h to break even ^_^

Offer ends in about 12 hours, then the game goes to highest bidder.

You got a point... I extended it because I was away for the weekend and wasn't home until Monday morning. But I guess it should've ended at Sunday.

The bid is over,
ElGato is the winner.

About the goddamn time too, it's like you were selling a fucking house and not a shitty 10$ game.

For me, it is a great game with almost house-like value. Definitely not a "shitty 10$ game" as you call it.

Warband is pretty much the best action-RPG ever, so ElGato made a good deal, assuming he didn't work too hard for the pearls :)

The physics are terrible.

The graphics are glitchy and laggy.

The AI has a terrible pathfinding system.

The combat system is okay, but not as complex as even Haven and Hearth.

The maps are all alike, and have a pretty unreal feel to them, as it's usually a flat plain surronded on all sides by massive random hills.

The jumping system is terrible.

Objects are usually pretty solid but are glitchy.

The campaign is very, very repetitive and gets boring within a few hours of playing. After that you can play again, but it would get boring again.

I can go on for hours. You treat this game like it's the best in the world. It's not.

Oh, and also, the engine is.. *sobs on table*.

So yes, it's not as great as you are saying it is. 6/10 only because the endless grinding makes up for a bit of the bad qualities.

The graphics are glitchy and laggy. - I experience no lag, not sure which glitches are you talking about either.

The AI has a terrible pathfinding system. - Not sure about this one, as I am more of a multiplayer guy.

The combat system is okay, but not as complex as even Haven and Hearth. - I don't think you can even compare the two combat systems. Yes sure, H&H has more depth, but in the end it's all about knowing what to use when more than the sheer practice that you have to go through to be good at Warband. Warband requires much more practice to be good at the game.

The maps are all alike, and have a pretty unreal feel to them, as it's usually a flat plain surronded on all sides by massive random hills. - If you are only fighting on plain what do you expect? Attack a town or castle.

The jumping system is terrible. - What's wrong with it?

Objects are usually pretty solid but are glitchy. - Not sure what glitches are you talking about again.

The campaign is very, very repetitive and gets boring within a few hours of playing. After that you can play again, but it would get boring again. - Subjective, I'm replaying the singleplayer for about sixth time and it still hasn't gotten boring for me.

I can go on for hours. You treat this game like it's the best in the world. It's not. - I treat the game exactly how I feel about it, it's a wonderful game and no medieval combat game has even come close to it.

Oh, and also, the engine is.. *sobs on table*. - Engine? Again what's wrong with the engine? Graphics not ok? You should atleast try to be more constructive.

So yes, it's not as great as you are saying it is. 6/10 only because the endless grinding makes up for a bit of the bad qualities. - Again, subjectivity. I and many many others believe Warband (Mount&Blade) series are simply the best in this category. Find me a better game and prove me otherwise. Good luck with it though, I have tried countless games of this type and none comes even close to Warband.


Like I said in one of my lines, you're criticism is just full of unsupported statements and bias. If you want to engage in this and actually prove that the game is bad, you should try better.
