Simulates too much medieval life tbh. Realism shouldn't have to mean tedious. I guess the peasant lifestyle just doesn't appeal to me. Map could also be clearer.
Major point of coentention is that the combat is actutally rewarding and interesting, but the power creep and the way they handle levelling is inane. They don't get better stats or anything, but after a while every single enemy starts to fight you like you're the boss fight from a souls game. They parry, block, and dodge anything you throw regardless of feints.
Absolutely tedious to be forced to swing your weapon at a dirt-covered serf 50 times because he has deftly parried every single strike with his pitchfork, or be forced to cheese him with a bow. This single feature makes any progression utterly meaningless, which undermines the entire core gameplay loop. An extra 2 stars if this were different.
