Hey everyone! I’ve been playing Conan Exiles since 2019, and I’d like to suggest some improvements for character visual customization. Considering we’re in a game where all the characters are humans, with practically the same faces and bodies, I think it would be interesting to invest more in this area.
I understand that creating characters with variations in weight, like slimmer or bulkier ones, might be complicated, especially due to the complex combat animations. However, it would be great to at least see new hairstyles, tattoos, piercings, and even body hair (the characters used to have subtle armpit hair textures that were removed).
I know there are plenty of mods that offer these kinds of customizations, but since they aren’t available on official servers, it would be amazing to see these changes implemented directly into the game.
Maybe someday Funcom will release another Conan game, and expect it to get big. Exiles seems to have grown beyond it’s expectations, and the code used to create it.
Body hair would be great. I want a big curly mass* of greatness all over so i can finally wear the Hyperborean Slaver armor like it is supposed to be worn. All i need then is to be able to dye the girdle itself a glorious gold.
*Edited because i can’t say a certain word popularized by Austin Powers.
You say you started in 2019 and that there are still no new hairstyles in 2024. This is not actually true, new hairstyles and facial hair was added in the Isle of Siptah DLC, which released in 2021.
In order to access the Island Barber options, you need to use the Orb of Nergal, as they are not available during character creation.
However, that aside, this is from a year ago, but it shows that it is at least on their minds:
Completely agree @Pacheco. I am most resolutely up for some additional hairstyles, and as a heavily tattooed guy they have been on my list of guilty desires for a while. I have tried to give my dancers warpaints in the past to emulate that tattooed appearance, but they always wear off over time so I threw in the proverbial towel. Maybe some appliable body scars would be a nice touch too.
