So huge, huge fan of Conan Exiles.
I would say my problem with playing the game is more to do the fact it’s addicting to play!
Except my new problem is not wanting to play it…ever.
Running/Walking is a huge chore, it feels like sludge or oil, or like trying to walk in a pool. It’s a chore, its tedium, and while I don’t mind the grinding aspect of Conan, if something is boring or is a chore or makes me not want to do something, that’s the wrong way to go about it.
As for rolling? I can’t play the game half as well anymore.
I dodge, I roll, I don’t do combat.
No offense Funcom but I find your weapon combos unfun, I don’t find any part of combat fun. As a builder/explorer I find the fun in making cool builds. I was never a good fighter, but I didn’t mind cause I could dodge and roll just enough in PVP so that raids and other forms of PVP weren’t so bad I couldn’t be on a PVP server.
However you nerfed dodge/roll so bad now. You get no distance, it makes you super vulnerable, and there is pretty much no use to being even naked for dodging.
Honestly, if you leave dodging while in naked or light armor like how it was? Guess I’m a light armor specialist now! But I don’t even have that option.
So dodging enemies was the one defense I had while in PVP or PVE, and now I don’t have that option anymore. I have “run away and not play” method, or if I’m good enough I can grind the enemy out of if I have the resources on that map to do so.
I guess what I’m saying is this game has become so bad I’m probably going to have to leave.
After getting the day one edition, after enjoying so many builds, with my raid clan, building huge massive structures, and losing (and winning) so many battles, I guess this is how I go?
I know that I’m probably not with a vocal enough group that can get any changes done, but I really am sad that I have to leave.
I never got to screw around with the Riders DLC I got, and I never did something proper with Derekto Pleasures.
Still, I want to thank Funcom for all the fun up till now!
I know you want to take your game in a new direction, that’s cool, you can do whatever you like, I’ll support your choices as an artist and developer.
I just can’t travel that road because you made dodging so bad, I would rather just go play anything else, or watch anime instead.
