Speedrunning a Chaotic Era with Mount and Blade

Misconception 1: The Manchurian elite were all "super heavy infantry". The reality was that the heavy infantry were all from the Solon tribe, whose status was comparable to that of serfs. The Manchu elites were indeed skilled in highly mobile mounted archery. Misconception 2: The Ming army at the end of the Ming Dynasty was weak and short compared to the Manchu soldiers.

Killing one person is a crime, slaughtering ten thousand is heroism, and killing a million is heroism among heroes! A hero among heroes, yet his path differs; he sees through the millennia-old reputation for benevolence and righteousness, seeking only to display his might in this life. He loves infamy more than good names, and feels no remorse for killing millions.

Here's a picture of Qing Dynasty archery on horseback, just in case some idiot from the cold weapons forum comes out and says the Qing Dynasty didn't have horseback archery.

Keep it up! Another Mount & Blade: Three Kingdoms game is already racing down the path of becoming a "green" (a term used to describe someone who is overly cuckolded).

I suggest renaming it "The Great Calamity of History," which would be more appealing. Mount & Blade has too many people filtering it out.

Are there still any historical novels like this where the protagonist has overpowered abilities while everyone else is just average, with a relatively rigorous plot? Just reading about political intrigue and historical facts feels dry and tasteless, and purely wish-fulfillment stories with random hack-and-slash sequences are too simplistic. I'm looking for novels like this where everyone except the protagonist is believably powerful, based on historical facts.

The author originally intended it to be a lighthearted read, but the historical research was quite thorough, forcing me to learn a lot about the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. It was pretty good. I really like how you write, but now that you've abandoned the project, I'm very unhappy.

At least write something about how future generations will evaluate it. This kind of writing doesn't have any amazing reviews from later generations or any claims that later generations think the historians exaggerated it. It's just a quick cut-and-paste job.

It was obvious from the start that the story was doomed. The plot immediately fell apart when it turned into a god descending from the heavens. Unless the protagonist becomes an immortal, there's no way to surpass it. What's the point of writing Mount & Blade then?

What's going on? Why was it abandoned? 😭
