Yeah I first saw this game when the guys making Starcitizen put a link on their forums. I pledged for 20 bucks, game looks like it will be great. A note towards Mount and blade I don't have quite that many hours but Im close. Do you use any mods? Right now im using the Blueblood mod and sometimes Ill play on a Game of Thrones mod. Supposedly there is a new mount and blades game in the works, can't wait for that.
EDDIT: I also use the Freelancer mod in M&B, pretty cool being able to work your way up the ranks.
Me and Two friends were working on a 30 year war mod (that would focus on a segment of the 100 years war). Got about 1/2 done before they had to give up on it.

I was able to go a little further but had to stop due to not knowing anything of the coading/ computer couldn't handle any of the software to make new armor/ weapons. It is something I plan on finishing when I get my new rig.
Other mods I played were Prophesy of Pendor, Brytenwalda and the 1886 mod too. I read on the new game Bannerlord II, that they will have many of the Diplomacy Mod's features in it. (Like having the ability to switch fiefs with some of the other vassals of a kingdom, better negotiations and more room to act when ruling a kingdom or being a lord over a fief). I am really looking forward to it, and I am hoping that the system will be just as easy to mod.
The mods I've used easily added 800+ hours of gameplay, I've only played 10 hours or so multiplayer. Very very fun indeed.
