The problem with Siptah in the beginning was that Funcom didn´t took the time to include proper farming-, thralls-, recipe and teleportation spots. People loved the look of the map, great potential and great building spots but it felt to empty, to restricted in regards to items and ressources gathering. They added additional biomes later on and its alright now. Although the map for my taste still feels to small and the bioms are not split evenly across the map. They are way to cluttered together.
I am personally not a fan of the storm. I like to have a lot of thrall camps. It annoyed me to have those permanent storms. In the beginning their was a lot of those storm noises going on. It was so loud. Drove me nuts. I barely played the map so far.
On one side it tickles my finger to build a nice castle somewhere. But can´t bring myself to actually play this map. I wished we had some of that green landscape on the Conan Exiles map.
If Funcom does another map in the future they should do a better job then as with Siptah in the beginning.
