cRPG Items [NSFW]

[Christo]

Quantity < Quality

Less, Balanced items > More, imbalanced items.

I don't know if we can even do anything against the dev's will, they can do whatever they want, it's their project.

I don't mind staying in the 13th century if we get a wide arsenal of the era.

I wouldn't rage quit, but like others have stated, one of the biggest attractions of this mod (for me anyways) is getting to experience epic clashes between a large variety of differently themed characters. I don't play the game for historical accuracy, I play it because its fun to see an (almost) roman legionary stab a samurai in the face, only to get shot in the dick by a naked man with a longbow.

Getting rid of all non 13th century equipment wouldn't make the game more fun, or more balanced. All it would do is make it more historically accurate--to what purpose?

[v/onMega]

Do it!!!

[owens]

this is dumb

[eulenkaese]

I like the idea, bit why not going a bit further. just armored with fur and a stick with a nail would also lead to awesome fights!

[Elmetiacos]

You hardly see most of the heavier plate armours now because nobody can afford them. What this amounts to is losing a few of the most expensive weapons like the Side Sword, German Poleaxe and Flamberge. Theoretically many of the Chinese and Japanese swords would go, too...

[Tears of Destiny]

To be perfectly honest, I want replacements for every single thing removed. A simple reskin and renaming will suffice, no need to change stats.

That would be sweet.

 +Some polishing for the existing skins Armors are fine. Some weapons, shields and headgear are terrible. And if it can not be done - trash them too. 

I want to tk people who are wearing this, just to put them out of their misery:

As both my characters themes do not use weapons/armour from beyond the 13th century (unless the Danish GS counts) I would not rage at the removal of said items.

But please don't remove them, variety on the field is something that makes this mod great and it would be a shame to lose the many japanese themed clans (unless they are restriced to 13th century japanese gear?)

You can take out the sidesword though, or at least replace it with an OP 13th century weapon so my eyes don't bleed when i fight 80% of shielders

Wouldn't mind it per se, but we would need more items to refill. Variety is one of the things that make character customization fun, so let's not waste it.
Still, I've always thought cRPG was too much of a mishmash of different countries and periods. And I shrink every time I see a horse archer with plate armor, nodachi, kerghit cap and sarranid shoes.

Dear developers,
Omg

The upkeep system over-nerved the plate armours already, so there is no need to remove them.
cRPG already has little armours, and you my friend want to make it even less?!


And why the hell does everyone hate tincans?
They are part of the medieval combat.
And tincan armour isn't so OP as you think.

Boost:
-It gives superb protection

Setbacks:
-It costs so much money due the upkeep that you can't use it for long without losing thousands of gold.
-It makes you move as fast as a tortoise.
-Your attacks look like if they are in slow-motion.


As you can see there are more setbacks then boosts, the single boost is maybe worth the 3 setbacks.
Which means it's in balance.

I actually find it much more annoying to fight an agility-whore with peasant armour that spams the hell out of you.
If people agree with me feel free to say it. (Same for the people who don't.)

I guess the purpose is not to nerf plate or anything, it's just to have a better immersion and historical accuracy.

As i said i like the idea for a better immersion, but cRPG is fun because of variety in style of armors and weapons (even is some style are ridiculous, like crossdresser).

But i'm looking forward to see something like this in Strategus, where immersion is more important (it would be more simple for trade too).

[Penitent]

Ok, we should get some things straight on this possibility. 

Having only 13th century equipment does NOT limit cultural diversity.  This change implies we would still have 13th century equipment of asian, middle eastern, european, origins (as well as African, or whatever else).  In this way, themed characters would still be perfectly viable.

There are a LOT more 13th century weapons and armor that are not in the current mod that could be added.  So removing 14th-16th century items does not necessarily mean there will be less equipment diversity either.

I think this would be a cool idea, if new items were added to replace the old.

I don't think crpg  (and mount and blade in general) are fun because of the diversity.  I think it's fun because it is one of the most realistic and intuitive (in terms of combat control) multiplayer fighting games in existence.  Limiting the items a bit more for the time period, while maintaining diversity, would make it more immersive/fun for me.

[Gorath]

Almost everything from the 13th century that wasn't middle eastern, asian, or other non-caucasian areas looked pretty boring and lame tbh.  Hell, sadly, most caucasian equipment barring barbaric tribal cultures looked pretty lame throughout all of history come to think of it with most "plate" armors topping the puke-meter in terms of appearance.  Just my opinion, and no I'm not a weeabo or anything.  Just an honest white dude that acknowledges that from the end of the bronze/classical ages until more modern times white people had an absolutely abyssmal sense of style and fashion sense.

[Bobthehero]

And I disagree strongly with you gorath D:
But I'd like to see the non 13th century stuff swapped with historical stuff adn the stats kept.
