This game is not for everyone. There are no elves or dwarfish characters to party with or destroy and there is no use of magic or magical weapons. And this is as intended. The developers wanted a more realistic game based in the medieval era, and as such combat is only between humans. This, along with the use of horses in combat, certainly helps to separate Mount & Blade from other games of this genre.

Mount & Blade 2: Bannerlord may not be out yet, but modders sure seem eager to get started with TaleWorlds Entertainment's long-awaited quasi-historical strategy RPG. There's already a Tolkien mod in the making, and one concerning Silmarillion, at that.
