The game has both third person and first person view, the former better for melee and the latter better for ranged weapons.

You can hire mercenaries, train them, trade between cities, fight bandits, and even become a vassal to a lord and be granted a village, castle, or town. It is a sandbox-style game, set in the medieval-ish land of Calradia, where you begin with a lame horse, a rusty sword, a bent crossbow, and some tattered rags, and are then expected to impress a king of your choice and conquer the world for him (or whatever else you feel like, really). Mount & Blade is an indie Action- Strategy RPG developed by TaleWorlds Entertainment and published by Paradox Interactive.
