*CROM!* desperately needs an overhaul!

That is odd, as I have not argued that ‘Crom should do more’, nor for that matter that he should to anything at all. And I have made that abundantly clear throughout the thread. Please refer to Post no.7:

Please refrain from putting words into my mouth. So either you did not read the post before replying, failed to comprehend it or you are deliberately misrepresenting what I have said, and that is called a Strawman.

No, I know and am accepting the lore and have been actively citing it throughout the thread as it progresses…ALL of the lore. Go ahead and see for yourself. You on the other hand are making a conceited decision to view the issue from a puritanical standpoint and dismiss the works all authors aside from one because you personally do not approve of the inclusion of their contributions, ie- Expanded Universe lore. And I hate to break it to you, but Conan Exiles utilises lore from Robert E Howard’s work and from the Expanded Universe, and Funcom has made it quite clear that Conan Exiles utilises all sources as lore. This was also stated much earlier too, but I cannot seem to unearth the relevant post.

The reverse apllies to you. If you are incapable of accepting that Conan Exiles draws on the works of a diverse range of literary and media sources, and want a experience that is purely Howard’s alone, then go and read the books, or establish a roleaying server. However, do not push your own false consensus affect and insist that others collectively dismiss the works generated by countless creative and talented individuals and demand that other people should have play and experience the game in accordance to your own personal beliefs. Oh and nice Appeal to Emotion fallacy there with the “lore of the century” hyperbole.
