Cleidophoros: No story because the game is not meant to have a story; what little you get in terms of quest and lore is just to get you to fighting. That's it.
Game doesn't really work well with scripted events required to make a story, big map, all those other parties and huge armies roaming the land etc.
There must be some story mods over in the forums but I have never been interested in those to know any of them.
There is no micromanagement in the game. None whatsoever. Just the usual buy/sell/update stats/change equipment. You haven't played the game it seems; do play first.
I understand not every game works good with a story but to me games without story don't interest me much. Sure there are some exceptions, and I do play some story-less games on occasion and enjoy myself, but I prefer to have a story in my games. :\ Game doesn't really work well with scripted events required to make a story, big map, all those other parties and huge armies roaming the land etc.

If someone managed to "wed" a true RPG and M&b i'd probably play the shit out of it though.
As for playing it.....I might if I cna fit it into my backlog.
