I do understand the games issues, we all do, from devs to players we all experiencing difficulties, but now we speak about the priceless moments we had… Because we had priceless moments in this game, all of us… So it’s time to sit, open our hearts, remember and cherish!
I often say that this game gave me more than i expected. I had online experiences in other games too, but in this game, my “friends” experience went to another level. I manage to make true friends, people i speak and share still! I follow them to other games too, but Conan exiles was the starting line, the game “Station” for a strong friendship that still lasts strong the past 4 years and i personally don’t see this changing for the next ones to come. I don’t use social media, but i fixed a messenger account just for them and a Twitter account just for Funcom and Conan exiles! The gaming friends i made in this game are many, god bless them, but i will speak for two only, Pauline from France and Corentin from Belgium. For them i sacrifice my right arm and i am a man of my words! My financial are to the lines always, but when this thing will change i will make a journey to Belgium for “Ganga”, to France for “Po” and to Norway Ofcurce to shake the hands of these precious professionals who created this game and this Forum! This is on the top list of my dreams!
Pauline!
I was playing in a private pvp server and helped some good fellows from France. Their English was poor, but surely better than my French
. We were playing in the server “Les Spartiates” at this time in different clans and often we were playing and grouping together. Once i follow the connection of one clan member that was already on my friend list, just to avoid the steps off logging in, choose server, etc…
But this player was playing in another server too, named “La Legion”, only for French people, locked and you could only gain password from Facebook. Again the obligation was to speak French! So without knowing where i am and what i do here, i started my starring run. I wanted day 3 to surprise my French fellow by tossing on his feet all the legendary weapons i managed to claim. After one and a half hour i will accept a message on my psn…
(Po) Salut!
(me) Hello. I am Stelios from Greece and i don’t speak French. Do you speak English?
(Po) French is obligation in this server and it’s locked with password, how did you manage to join?
(me) From the starting menu i joined the session of another player that’s on my friend list!
(Po) Connect on the vocal because i will have to ban you instantly! I have questions please!
(me) Give me some time please i need to find my headset! But where are you, i will come in person (my toon i mean
), since i am not allowed to play, i will give you my farming so far and recreate character to quit!
(Po) meet me on I4 in 10 minutes and make sure you’ll be connected to the vocal too.
So i connected instantly to the vocal as ordered just sending a message that i can listen to them, but they won’t until I’ll find my headset.
After awhile i managed to connect, meet her and the other Admins on the appointment point, tossed them on the ground my one and a half hour farming and recreate character to quit the server. Pauline witness in my loot bag the breath of the mother…
Impossible she screamed! How did you do this, are you a hacker?
Nah, i answered, just lucky. Outside Den, i collected the shark bite daggers, so o didn’t think a lot, i went to visit at once the Mother. Your server my dear friend has no stamina loss, xp boosted and no inventory loss, i was already lvl 60
. Why you call this impossible? I am doing it on official servers in this time frame, not here.
So, nice to meet you guys, see you around. Other than that i don’t pvp, i only pve, so no problem.
The next day i received a message from La Legion admins team!
Our servers name is La Legion and the password is “banana”. Feel free to come and play on our server whenever you wish, we will be happy to have you here! But not in clans please, alone. Yet you can help whoever you wish.
I joined this “easy” server La Legion. Until then, these servers was a humiliation for the game for me, but these 20 minutes i was in the vocal with them was priceless for me. I joined their server and enjoyed the game like never before. Too much laughter and beautiful gaming days followed with these persons, not only in this server but in decades others after, since i became a proud member of La Legion and passed memorable days that 10 thousand words cannot explain.
Pauline is like my little sister, she is in my heart, truly! Her, Alexander (husband of Pauline) my Angela and me was drinking wine in Saturday nights, we from Rhodes and them from Nantes. Sitting in our living rooms each and having conversations. We still do it
and Ofcurce our youngling of La Legion Corentin (Ganga). I am the only person he allows to call him with his birth name, Corentin, when others do this “mistake”, he is upset
. A unique soul, a unique heart, my little brother sticked like a dagger in my heart! I still remember the day he logged in crying telling us that his grandmother had Corona! He was 24 then and never serious, our little Benjamin creating troubles all the time
, but this day he tear my heart in pieces…
Again… I can write down for weeks and still wont be enough…
It’s not just them, there are plenty more, beautiful and unique people, like the most recent @Wonka, a fantastic person i met in this forum and on game too…
When i say i gained way more than i expect, I MEAN IT!
From my heart, really…
THANK YOU FUNCOM!
