Players can issue commands to entire retinues on the battlefield and either watch as their troops engage enemy forces at their command or join in the carnage themselves. While the game’s bugs, repetitive content, and grindy nature are annoying and tedious, the gameplay is still entertaining and unlike any other game currently on the market. Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord has captivated its massive audience for the past couple of weeks. Like certain mods in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, players can adjust the slow-motion dismemberment mod’s settings to determine how often they would like a decapitation to occur. Whether this is a glitch to be worked out later, or a statement by the creator that horse decapitation is unacceptable in their mod, is unclear. Those interested in the mod should note that attempting to decapitate a horse will, apparently, cause their game to crash. Check out this compilation video from YouTube user jedijosh420 to see how it looks: If done correctly, the game will slow down and players will get to witness a gruesome decapitation that lacks a little bit of realism but maintains its entertainment value for those who unafraid of viewing virtual gore to add a smidgen of extra immersion to their gameplay. The key is players must aim for an enemy’s head and cause a fatal blow using a left or right swing to get the effect to trigger.
