I can't imagine a world where a game can't run on a machine with 16 GB of RAM and A Quad Processor moving at 3.6 GHZ. Total trash of a game every time I try to get into superstar mode and just being the combine it Freezes. Yikes. I always end up seeing my RAM SPIKE UP!!!!!

SHORT ANSWER:
Handfull of bugs here and there but it's to be expected from early access (None of them are really "Game Braking" in my experience just a little funny to experience). For how long they've been working on this game I would say they did a pretty good job. Since they are still heavily fixing buggs and don't seem to be stopping any time soon it will only get better.

COMPANIONS:
Companions no longer feel like they are just there to use in battle and armor up. They are actually use in your efforts to rise through the ranks. In warbands you had to make sure your companions where high level and able to already lead a massive army before you made them a Lord/Lady. Now you can send them to have their own armies and still upgrade them as long as they engage in combat on their own. Don't be fooled about them being able to have their own armies as a way to have more troops and pay less because you will have to pay for their party's wages along with yours so having at least 1 settlement is necessary. The amount of companion lead parties arn't unlimited so you do have to choose which companion should have their own party. This system makes it a little easier to becoming king yourself however now you also have settlement management that is more than just build a prison tower, school, ect.

COMBAT:
All in all combat reminds me of For Honor when you don't have a shield that is. If you have a shield there are ways to move your character and make it easier for yourself so you don't have to worry about which direction to move your shield unless its arrows you are defending against (personal experience T-T). Armor and weaponry in this game seem to have a fairly noticeable difference between them (I played this game 1 below realistic in settings if that makes a difference to you).

BATTLES:
Field battles are the same as warbands but depending on your clan lvl you are either the last, middle or first one to choose what type of unit to lead. Infantry, Bows, Cavelry, ect. this makes it so you only have to worry about 1 type of unit instead of scrambling between every type and making sure they are doing what you wan't them to do. if you arn't the big commander that is. Whoever is the big commander can tell you what to do with your troops but not where to place your troops so that is all up to you. in siege battles you don't get to have control over your troops unless you are the big honcho.

CHARACTER PROGRESSION:
The progress doesn't feel too fast or too slow. You don't become a lvl 200 One handed, Bow, ect. specialist very easily as much as i felt it in warband. The added "Tech tree" in every skill is very nice since it makes you think about what you are going for and it makes it so you can't just have every buff possible. In terms of party size there is really only one major way to increase party size and that is Clan Lvl. It takes a fair bit of time to level up your clan but its party size boost is worth it. On top of that you can't just join a game as a peasant make 1 large army and attack a castle to become king. You have to have a lvl 3 clan before you can do that as well as a little bit of the story quests completed (about 2 or 4). i havn't died but that is supposed to happen to you every now and then apperently so losing a battle isn't as "inconsiquential" as in warband but it doesn't happen often or at all(never experienced it). You can permanetley eliminate a noble if you capture them but it might not be in your interest unless, well, you really don't like them or you don't care.

Conclusion is i think this is a great game and it can only get better as well as I'm bad at grammar, Spelling and yes you can call me a fanboy.

So Far this game has been very fun. You might think that the kill streak mechanic would be broken but to be honest its not that bad. 3 or 4 rpg to one and its dead. 10 classes in total to customize so one of em must have an RPG. The gun customization is really up there. You can customise your regular stuff like attachments but even the body parts of the gun. They won't affect the stats of it just the appearance. So far i say they are going somewhere. Only thing left is for more players to find this game and enjoy it as much as i do.
