Why did this game kill Mount and Blade: Napoleonic Wars?

I remember liking Holdfast when it came out but I was expecting it to get more refined in terms of things like the movement, but it has stayed exactly the same. M&B’s movement is so smooth and crisp in comparison, especially the cavalry, which feels so nice and natural to use, yet feels so clunky and borderline unusable in Holdfast. A lot of the animations in Holdfast feel like placeholder animations. I expected everyone to move over to Holdfast when the game got better, but it didn’t really get much better yet everyone still moved over. Why?

Even on warlord the enemy units kill mine in usually 2-3, sometimes even one attack, whereas mine usually take at least 5 to kill theirs. I could lower the difficulty even more, but then the AI will be terrible and not able to keep up in terms of science, economy etc. why do they have such ludicrous bonuses on the default difficulty?
