Is the insane number of bandits a bug or a feature?
At any given time there are between 15 and 30 bandit parties of varying sizes on screen at any given time, and 2 times I've had to restart because they catch you off the game start spawn.

I can work my way up to fight them if I need to, but would like to know if it is a feature or a bug

Its both and neither. We use the vanilla values for bandits and somehow this is how it ended up, at first it didnt really bother us until many complaints came so we're changing it in the new update.

I'm just not enjoying every basic bandit having shields. Shields everywhere. The absolutely most frustrating thing to fight in the game.

They dont though? Cultists have no shields

most other bandits do though, the empire deserters, vampire roaming bands etc all have shields and on day 1 with no money and only peasants to fight with its a bit insane

good to know the upcoming update will have a config for it though

Oh thank god its getting fixed, i was just about to unsub. The vendors also have no gold so you cant sell anything even when you beat a few bandits. Definitely needs fixing to be playable

Venders have the same amount of gold as in vanilla, if you sold too much they need to have some time in order to get money again. And to be honest its very much playable, we're fixing the bandits for other reasons since most actually enjoy it, thats why we have to make it configurable.

the bandit situation is only rough in the very early portions of the game. Stick to cultists until your mounted troop count is high enough to take on deserters. send troops with lords and you get an inordinate amount of loot. Deserter loot sometimes drops decently priced armor or weapons that you can sell. Rinse and repeat until you've got like 50k.

How long until the new version is released, cannot wait back to Old Realm again
