That’s because it’s not really true. In a game like Conan Exiles, a game that caters to so many different playstyles and offers an insane level of flexibility and customization, there’s no such thing as “pinnacle of server game experience”. One player’s idea of pinnacle is another player’s idea of virtual hell. There’s no “best color” in the rainbow.

As Umborls once pointed out – and got wildly misinterpreted – the game wasn’t made for official servers only. That said, official servers are supposed to be the online gameplay experience that reflects the game design decisions best. For example, when the devs balance something, they’re doing so with default settings in mind, and not with some extreme settings you might find on a private server that prefers them.

The problems with official servers are crappy specs and lack of proper moderation. None of that has anything to do with proposing changes and new features. “There’s already a mod for that” is informative, but shouldn’t be an argument to shut down the discussion or reject a feature.
