After many hundred hours played with my friends we near the end of Siptah. I felt like I wanted to put the ideas and the motivations for loving the game on “paper” so that we could return to the game again and together enjoy the new content.
For us it’s all about PvE on a private server. Just 5 friends experience an adventure together. Looking at the server list I get the impression that we are not alone in the love for PvE without any PvP elements.
This is a few of the tings I would love to see in the game
-
When you log out you stay in the pose you had so if you sat down in a chair you would still sit in that chair instead of falling unconscious on the ground. Exploits of blocking important things could be countered by making the character etherial or by letting anyone end the emote and making it fall to t he ground. This would create a cooler atmosphere in the homebase as someone is sitting in the bar and another is leaning against the tree she always hangs out by. This ties into the next idea.
-
Poseable thralls. By being able to pose and use emotes on thralls you could create a dining hall with people sitting at tables eating or sitting in chairs, having a stretch in the grass etc. this would populate the homebase and give a more immersive and rewarding time there. This in something I would see high on the prioritized to-do list.
-
Another one high on that list would be to remove grass from beneath a foundation so that if you build a house the grass would not stick up through the floor. This ruins so many great locations to build at.
-
Since so much of the game is focused on balance due to PvP (my guess) the higher tier building pieces are very expensive. if you choose PvE as a server I think there should be a choice to lower cost since in PvE it is mostly cosmetic and not directly tied to survivability.

I really need more reasons to use light armour and clothes. We need more skins for clothes so that you could choose how you wanted to look more that just having 1 set that is so much better than everything else and having jewellery and light armour be plain useless in any other situation that taking a great screenshot. Let heavy armour have greater armour and jewellery and light have more stats or something similar so that in a group a support character could use other things than just the heaviest of armour. I’m a big fan of fashion and playing with different looks so just do different skins for the same so I can play dress up all day.
This is five points that I really would love to see and bring me a lot of enjoyment out of the game. It felt like each expansion had around 300h of game time so i look forward to see an expansion each year at full price so that me and my friends could join forces once a year and play a few months of Conan.
This is my 2 cents of a few improvements I would like to see. Love the game and I hope it stays and evolves as time goes by. this is by far one of the better games I have played together with my friends. Both the construction part and the adventure part so that you log on during the week to gather and construct. And then do proper adventures a few times a week together. Moving over to the new Unreal 5 engine would of course be insanely cool. I would buy a new computer for that. 
Bring us more goodness Funcom. Once a year would be a good cycle for a new map and content. in fact, it would be more than good, it would be amazing. the only game I would buy over and over again to get that explorer fix.
