Is Kingdoms of Arda dead?

massive respect for people working on passion projects like these, it takes time, heck we've seen that with skyoblivion and other similar projects, i wish you all stay strong with your work, life and not be scared to take a break from time to time :)

I don't just want a bannerlord game with a kingdom of Arda skin i want a new experience! If that takes time and effort then by all means take your time!. I would rather play the game in five years time then play it now where it could be unfinished, buggy and does not give that core LOTR/Bannerlord experience.

how do you intend for an unborn mod to die?

Time and time again we see in the gaming industry where people are rushed to put out a product, Cyberpunk, Skyrim at launch, No mans sky, Fallout 76, Halo Infinite, the list goes on and on and on and on.
Take your time and make a product that YOU will be proud of releasing, release something that YOU want to release as a mod maker
You are making a free addition to a game, it is 110% at ya'll's pace and cadence. Thank you guys for the transparency, and keep doing what you love!

I've applied to KoA but I've got no answer for couple of weeks.

This mod it the reason I have recently bought Bannerlord and I can certainly wait patiently in hype as you work tirelessly on it! Just from what you have shown it looks like the best thing to come out in a long time! Best of luck and take your time.

I just found out about banner lords. Is this mod for the first game or banner lords 2? This looks amazing!

id pay 20$ comfortably for a mod like this fully fleshed out.....maybe full price of the game if theres everything even nazgul.

Man I can't wait

Thanks for taking your time please let this be great i love everything lord of the ring other than rop

whos gonna care in 5 years when its out

ive been following this from the start super excited to play this

I believe in you guys and know that you are cool

I just finished my Yearly Autumn Lord of the Rings - Extended Edition Great Rewatch, and currently playing bannerlord, and each and every heavy cavalry charge, each and every bandit camp cleansing, each and every Battanian put down, all I am thinking is, "this is fine... but i could be killing orcs if KoA was released!!!"
Keep at it guys, we are all waiting as patiently as we can until we can share the joy of walking Middle Earth again.

No need to rush this, it will take its time. GOOD JOB

KoA is what happens when you let modders with no Project Management experience run a full overhaul. It gets stuck in development hell with all members chasing "perfection" but will never find it. They can't be bothered to commit to a roadmap, or a piecemeal release to allow the community to assist in QA, or so they can finish up assets/expand rosters, etc.

Its so weird how they've gone about this. It's the complete opposite of what SHOULD be done.

😵

You’re doing exactly right by not pushing a release or hyping up and making this a second Bannerlord. You make it better.

Glad this mod isnt dead, I've been following you guys since 2017.. if i was patient for the last 6 years, i can do some more.. hopefully not another 6 :D

I literally won't care when it comes out as long as I can play it eventually. If it's as immersive and fun as Last Days of the 3rd Age from Warband, then I can easily put 100's of hours into it

pls dont stop making the mod i dont mind if it takes a while

Oh my god the Nazgul look incredible. Take the time you guys need, this is amazing.

May The Blessing Of Eru and Valar be with you guys , Thank u for the time you guys are spending for this amazing Mod

I worked on a mod team for Kenshi briefly, and good lord I realised I wasn't cut out for it, barely did anything, felt terrible. Though I was also going through tough times back then. I am honestly super impressed with your team, the amount of work and quality is amazing and whilst I'd love to be playing it right now I am more than willing to wait haha.

Please, don't talk about KOA and do not make videos about it ! They shut up because Warn*r Br*s company try to destroy projects like this, like they tried to do with Conquest Reimagined, or with Endless Days. WB deleted a big project mod for Skyrim, years ago. So let them work in shadows, and just wait for the release, if you want to play this mod ! Once it will be out, it will be too late, even for WB, to delete the mod.

God bless you!!!

It would be best if you let A.I. players use Max/High tier units. Because, they are not smart enough to outrun us and all of them uses low tier unit, which is pretty easy to kill. This is the mistake all overhaul mods have. I'd say make A.I. leaders carry 90% Max tier unit and 10% mix of all tier units, it will make the game more challenging

I salute all of you guys working on the mod, thank you for dedicating so much time to this amazing passion project, I cannot wait!

i will weld my door shut and never see daylight ever again when this comes out....

Any chance this mod will get uploaded to steam?

i am playing vanilla mount and blade lotr mod for like 12 years now so i am patient lol keep on good and hard works guys you guys have our full support

This mod could have been released earlier if the developers hadn't worked so hard to make it so perfect. I don't think anyone would have been upset if the first version didn't have all the settlements custom made

Take your time ❤

Devil’s Advocate, perhaps a good amount of hype will make it easier to find more available modders to help

Take your time, this and Warhammer mod will be the ultimate pinnacle of Bannerlord experience.

Man, I even started donating to Nexus lol for this MOD. that was 3-4 years ago

Have you thought about releasing it bit by bit in updates ? Rather than waiting for all the cities and scenes to be done you could concentrate on a 3 factions on the world map with base bannerlord cities and castles then with the updates you can add cities and other aspects as they come.

Thanks for your job guys. You are heroes.

I've stopped playing Bannerlord because I'm just waiting for this mod to come out. Take your time, but not too much time :P

The fact that people spend as much free time and sanity on free content is amazing to me
donating so much of themselves
Blows me away when people get demanding at mod devs

Good

Keep at it guys, you are making something incredible. We will be waiting for as long as needed :)

I much rather wait for a good quality mod then a rushed one, even though ive been patiently waiting for 2 years now whaha

Take your guys' time. Greatness takes time 😏. We are all eagerly waiting and the true fans will wait a lifetime to play this highly anticipated mod!

I love you

I'm walking through a dark tunnel for years when it comes to my died off passion for gaming.
But you guys, you create a small light in the far distance for me, that gives me hope again.

LOTR fans like you are gigachads

Bro, ive been waiting for Rise of Mordor (Dawnless days) for something like 10 years and there is at least 2 to come. So no worries, take your time, i think we can all see your love for Tolkiens work.
For people like me who struggle to even install the bloody mods, you are kinda demigod :D and i thank you from all my heart, for your hard work and dedication.
