FYI, they did give a pretty clear message in regards to Sorcery. It was “we’re not working on it. Should that ever change, we’ll tell you.”
“That’s not final!” you may say. Well, sure. Can’t argue with that. Nothing is ever final in a game that’s still receiving patches. But it’s probably as final as you’re likely to find.
Gandalf fought with a sword pretty much all the time. Saruman’s magic was basically science, with an extra dose of hypnotic suggestion. Both the Hyborian Age and Middle-Earth had their powerful wizards, but they didn’t go around slinging spells all day long. In Hour of the Dragon, even Xaltotun, possibly the most powerful magic-user in the setting, tends to use as little magic as possible to achieve his goals, because magic is not only draining to its user, but also unpredictable.
Two years is not to much. I would prefer to play Conan instead of games like Ark with zero lore. I bought ps4 just to play conan exiles and buy all dlcs to support funcom in working on this game. Sorcery? Not sure if this needed. But if they can allow players to create new settlements with npcs, planned attacks for armies of thrals, thats would be very nice.
Thank You Funcom for working on point 3 <3
