Oh certainly Alhambra. Furthermore, given that it was a sorcerer who put us there to begin with, I would definately buy into our character sharing Conans conviction towards them. In all honesty Im still neutral on the idea of sorcery in this game. Like the idea of mounts, I wouldnt mind if they were added, however I wont lose any sleep if it is not.
I absolutely agree again. This is exactly why Im on the fence with this idea. It simply couldnt be as forthcoming as say Skyrims magic system. Otherwise it would completely upend the entire feel and atmosphere of the game. Im glad we agree on this.
Ps-
Indeed my friend. What could be more awesome than eating the warm, possibly still beating heart of a crushed enemy. As soon as I first landed one in Skyrim and Conan Exiles, I had to do just that. I love it!
Baahaha I did the same thing when I first obtained a hero heart. I ate it. Didn’t really see what it did except cure corruption, so now the ones I have I store away. I believe they are ingredients for something, yeah?
So I was not aware that a sorcerer put our characters there. I kind of figured since we have that magic bracelet, but I have not seen much story as yet. Been playing since April, and I don’t even want to say how “far” I am. Everyone will laugh at me. XD Taking my time with this. When I do uncover more of the plot, I may have to change my character bio as I based my character on one from the comic books. Might not fit the game’s actual story, but I wasn’t aware it relly had one. If true though, the sorcerer that put us in the exiled lands has been busy as a bee since there are so many banished people there lol.
Back on sorcery, while I might not want the game to include too much of it at our disposition, when we think about it, magic being present isn’t unrealistic. I mean here we have shamans, witch doctors and priests, plus we fight things like the undead and dragons…so why not some wizards too. I just feel it would change the game too much if it had a “class” system. It would work if this was an RPG maybe.
I would like mounts too, as a means of quicker transport. Unless we cheat and use teleport, it can be a chore to get from one place to another, especially me as I still have base in newbie river. But no, like you, if this never happens it won’t make me stop playing the game or anything.
Please don’t derail the thread much longer. Although it’s good to get some old ideas out of the way (such as the immediate implementation of anything and everything), I think the author would like us to focus on putting our heart into wishing for what it is you want in future DLCs and sharing our secret downloadable desires with each other.
When Funcom at least will have implemented the AI and Thrall overhaul they are working on , I would like to see a DLC about Thralls and Pets:
I.e. Implementation of civil clothes which dont serves a warlike purpose and/or new stations for Thralls like music intruments or a gate ward station.
I can imagine also the implemtation of new emotes and emotes for thralls and pets
There will be huge possibilities for Funcom to earn more money - I would buy it
It’s not derail the thread. I feel we should get another major update before the dev team drown us with too much DLC. Remember this is Conan exiles not hello kitty online. The main focus should be about finishing the game and not on dress up DLC.
No sorcery thank you. There is enough of it in the world of the game already. Having every bafoon exile capable of learning magic or dark arts and whatever else is totally stupid for any realism actually, much less the Hyborian world.
Yes, I know its there, but its rare occurrences, that is also what makes it special. Even worlds with magic have little magic to make it feel more immersive. I say keep it out of Conan. We have it in every single other game.
That is why this riles me up so much. People for once have a different experience available to them and they are again asking for the same usual mechanics we have seen 100 times. Just for once can we bloody have a game were we dont have every baffoon run around casting spells and doing things they already do in every other game? And you KNOW everyone is going to do it.
Talk about a great way to ruin the feel of this world.
Will be so making a mod to get rid of it whichever way possible the moment something like that drops.
On the same note, want sorcery, play it with mods. There are some really good ones that included it. (And I still didnt care much for them, the game felt pale in comparison to what it was without sorcery)
Also, calling it hello kitty online is as ignorant as a player can get. I am sorry to come down hard on this, but that is the way it is.
You are chalking up one of the main aspects of immersion (and reasons people play period) to the game, crafting and building, to “dress up and hello kitty online?”
Yeah, this Conan Exiles. Survive, Build, Conquer.
Gonna survive with every way I can, going to build in every style possible and in every way I can imagine cities and whatever else my imagination can muster, and I’m gonna conquer the lands in style and not as a copy paste toon that every other player has rolling around.
Options…
Also, dont forget, official servers are only were it starts from what I can say. From there on the depth the game can have especially in RP elements goes to a whole new level, and this content helps for the depth of that ten-fold.
The game has more modes in it than just official online servers. It has solo/co-op too, and more importantly, it also has private servers, and many of them. They should cater to it all.
No, I did not.
My example clearly states the result of what its like without options, it was derogatory term of the result of no options. Everyone feels like a silly copy paste toon. Read again dude.
ps, the connection you are trying to make is trying too hard btw man. too hard
and Id add something else, which kinda makes your comment ignorant as well but hey, history repeats itself.
Cartoons do not dictate the style. They dictate a medium. Conan tv animation is a cartoon too, so is xmen, and so are the smurfs. The connection is not the cartoon, it is the style. If that was your best shot to a connection to Hello Kitty, then again you are trying too hard bro, you prove your stance in conversations one more time no surprise there though
In every game where I can be a mindless brute with big weapons, that is what I do. Dragon Age, Vikings Wolves of Midgard, Dragon’s Dogma, even in Witcher III I went all Ursine mode for build. (well not very fair, that game has very little magic) Conan Exiles is no different for me. Hammers and two handed swords for me. Not a style thing, just feel more comfortable going haywire while fighting.
I have no use for magic but I do want to eat the hearts of elves and magicians.
The DLC is cosmetic, and adds to the game’s immersion.
The sorcery you seem to want doesn’t really fit the IP, and will detract from it, while also adding a lot of nerfing and balancing ad nauseam drama.
Also, it is a modern, survival sandbox. Won’t ever be done, like MineCraft and GTA V are never done.
Also, as noted above, sorcery mods running on servers out there. If this really is that big of a deal to you, than go ask who is running a server with it to try out what they have done while you wait for this.
They can be used to produce Gorillas at the offerings chest in Hannumans Grotto. All hearts can. From what I have read they can also be used to produce potions at a T4 Ymir Shrine if you also have a T4 Nordheimer Priest.
Ill keep this as spoiler free as humanly possible Alhambra. Omitting the story of what hapoened between the humans and the GiantKings. Conan rescued our character sometime after Razma of Shem (the attractive woman in the intro). The sorcerer Thoth Anon imprisoned our character, and many of the other exiles in the Exiled Lands. He has plans to transform the Exiled Lands into an actual prison, and the bracelets of course can function as the means of keeping prisoners there. However, in order for his plan to work he must secure the artifacts which can be used to produce a Keystone, which allows people to remove the bracelet and escape. Having previously stolen the Black Serpent Ring of Set from the GiantKings, he is not welcome back in the Exiled Lands. Furthermore, it would require slaying the beings which guard the artifacts. So he has been sending prisoners, including innocent people en masse to the Exiled Lands, knowing that eventually a warrior who is skilled enough to secure the artifacts for him will do so and unwittingly bring them to the Chaos Alter where he can kill them and take artifacts for himself. So it is a setup, our character is being used as a P A W N…(forum is censoring it)
For the second to last Journey Step, he sends his dark servant to kill us and collect the pieces for himself. For the story of the Lemurians/Humans and their conflict with the GiantKings, you can do the Journey Steps where you find all of their respective Lorestones.
That is my take on it anyway peoples. If I am blatantly incorrect here anyone, please feel free to correct this where necessary.
Yet another way in which we are similar it would seem. My base is also on the Newbie River, in an area I call the grasslands. Right near the border of the Jungle. I like to keep my home relatively quiet and relaxing. If I want challenge and adventure, I will simply venture out to find it.
