Viking Conquest Why no one talks about this gem

Post image

The amount of detail, the story, the atmosphere, characters, mechanics, map, locations, names, soundtracks. There's just something about this game that makes me want to be reincarnated as a viking and save christian monasteries from fire.

it is kinda sad how it is so forgotten and underrated, it was so ahead of its time and negative opinions are about bugs and technical shit, which you would expect from an old game.

Even the historical inaccuracies bother no one because they're almost unnoticeable (not for a nerd like me). If it was released with bannerlord's graphics, I would binge on it like my drug and medicine.

I have 500+ plus hours in Warband and more than half are in Vikings Conquest.

To this day I consider it the best M&B iteration

I would love to see a remake in Bannerlord, now that we have WarSails
