>Hither came Conan, the Cimmerian, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandaled feet.
What would the ideal Conan game be like Yea Forums?
One that has you creating parties for dungeons, having them all die during the delve, Conan mieaculously surviving, then repeating the process again and again with larger parties until you finally achieve status of king and the game ends.
Cameron Parker
Conan Exiles, but good.
Owen Scott
>Conan Exiles Can we create settlements yet?
Eli Turner
Meaning what? Areas with roaming AI? No.
Noah Carter
Dunno but they advertised being able to connect cities with trade routes and shit
Justin Myers
Is this game like a rust or some shit with the conan name slapped onto it?
Aaron Ward
99% yes. I still prefer it to rust though.
Justin Hill
AC Odyssey would unironically be a good base to build a Conan game from.
Caleb Brooks
Oh well you definitely can't do that in any automated way yet. Just have to trade with other people the old-fashioned way.
It's similar but not exactly a copy. The system of enslaving NPC craftsmen to make shit for you is way better than blueprints. There are some things I wish Conan would just ripoff from Rust though, like the TC system for base maintenance and ownership.
Logan Perry
More Conan games when? An actual fleshed out Bronze Age setting with civilizations that aren't KNIGHTS, CASTLES and other typical generic garbage. Magic is only restricted to necromancy and demoncalling with sacrifices of virgin and children being favored to summon powerful demons.
Adrian Ramirez
A conan game could actually make the open world meme good with how diverse the setting of the hyborian age is and how Conan is a character that's perfect for adventuring. Throw in Red Sonja and lovecraft references and outright cameos like in the original REH novels as well as sailing, horse back riding, etc. and you could make the perfect conan game.
Dylan Myers
You can make him in Skyrim
Jonathan Adams
how did that nigger base him on the whitest people ever and have him come out looking like a mayan?
Darkest Dungeon clone but instead of rpg combat its good old Gauntlet
Cameron Murphy
Unironically an open world game filled with bandits, weird monsters, various ways to make a coin and various wenches which you can bed. The fun of the Conan stories is how there's always something new and unexpected just around the corner. >tfw you will never explore the dusky tombs of Stygia and slay ancient monsters for treasure
It's indicating that they're speaking a language that isn't English.
Daniel Cooper
She's a fucking cunt who undercut Conan. It was pretty based.
Matthew Sullivan
its indicating that their speaking another language
Ayden Rivera
>slay ancient monsters for treasure Isn't it like, really really hard to kill supernatural creatures in Conan universe? There's giant spiders that you can easily cut down but demonic or undead monsters aren't even effected by normal weapons or human strength. Conan was fighting some beast with an Akribanian Steel dagger and the thing snapped the dagger in half, unbreakable Akribanian steel was broken by said demon monster.
You'd actually have to have a good stealth system to make a decent conan game.
Daniel Baker
Yeah, Conan managed to luck out a lot of times when he was fighting these ancient monsters. In The Phoenix on the Sword, he barely survived his encounter with that Stygian demon. One of the big points of the Swords and Sorcery genre, however, is overcoming supernatural opponents with just the strength of your sword arm and your own wits. Encounters with demons and other unnaturally powerful foes should be desperate, hard fights which can fuck you up badly, but will ultimately be extremely rewarding.
Anybody play the old Conan game on Xbox that was released just in Europe? It was a little janky but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Long single player campaign as well where you pretty much slaughter every type of warrior in Hyboria.
Jaxon Hughes
>brown skin >jet black hair >straight hair >high cheekbones >gold earrings >particular hair style how is this celt fuck NOT some kind of mesoamerican? id like to know if anyone ever questioned this. even when other members of his tribe are shown, theyre really white
Dominic Collins
Maybe he's a really tanned Finngolian?
Jaxon Jackson
You would think on how much we have learn about bronze age civilizations, we would have more games about them.
Jose Phillips
Are those new Marvel titles any good? I remember I started reading the first two but kind of forgot to keep up.
Anthony Baker
Thankfully Howard did all that research already and created the Hyborian Age, a playground universe for games already. Problem is Funcom being niggers holds the IP hostage so nobody can take a crack at it.
Juan Green
i dont think that gay cares about history. if he knew any he would probably prefer the iron age or something since the bronze age was crazy advanced for their time before the crash
Brody Phillips
He's tanned because he spends all his time outside in the desert with no shirt on.
Jaxson Ramirez
desu I'm wary of anything marvel since '06 so I haven't read them.
Elijah Moore
Probably at high risk for skin cancer. What a way for our hero to go :(
Lucas Price
What's your favorite comic arc and why is it Queen of the Black Coast?
Iron age is done to death and I'm sick of it. I wanna explore the Atlantean age civilization, savages like the Picts who were complete barbarians yet somehow able to produce extravagant silver baubles.
Kevin Jones
How the fuck did those nobody Norwegian niggers get the rights to the IP anyway?
Benjamin Thompson
With Conans lifestyle either a demon, an undead form or an assassin will kill him first long before skin cancer does.
Julian Robinson
This isn't Queen of the Black Coast, but I'll make a quick dump of one of my favorites.
Conan lived to a ripe old age as the ruler of Aqualonia and died peacefully
Ethan Gutierrez
well the bronze age would be a far more advanced iron age. so if you want savagery and magic and shit youre looking at the wrong era. try late stone age or something
Brandon Torres
The older marvel comics are actually pretty great, but I do agree that adaptions aren't as good as the original work.
Blake Green
We often forget our ancestors could navigate by the stars do advanced mathematics plan cities with plumbing and put together surprisingly complex machines without the benefit of electricity [seriously check some of the shit greek temples made to impress the common folk]
Nolan Gray
>hating the dark horse run Pleb. Far better job than the Marvel ones could ever achieve.
id say the advancements of the bronze age are almost unknown to the public. most know of the decline during the dark ages, but no one really knows that the bronze age was magnitudes more advanced until pretty much all at once all major civilizations crashed and technology and knowledge went into the shitter until the iron age kind of picked up some slack.
you should read up on the bronze age and the mysterious crash that any surviving peoples blamed on the sea people who came bearing iron weapons in a bronze world
Christian Walker
If the Iron Age came after the Bronze Age, why would the Bronze Age be more advanced?
Conan Exiles might not be the best game out there, in fact it's completely broken right now, but god damn it can be comfy. I love all the useless shit you can fill your base with, just for the good looks.
Man how does Conan survive against these monsters so often? I know it's plot armor but just imagining the power these demons have and the swings of a simple steel weapon from a man wouldn't do shit how does he do it?
Well it depends on the area really. Im a history major [but not on this era not gonna lie] and some parts survived better than others like Egypt. we know some of the stuff they could pull off and when you think about what the average fortenite playing human blob cant do nowadays compared to the folks of ancient times it can be pretty surprising. Its not like math popped up overnight in Imperial Rome or anything and I sill have problems with that
Josiah Howard
TAKE me and CRUSH me with your love!
Hudson Parker
because it was, by a lot. it was way more advanced but then all major civilizations bit the dust pretty much one after the other and no one was around to preserve the medical, scientific, or any other such knowledge. no one was around to preserve any technological advancements. the world had to collectively pick itself up by the iron age and there was enough of a net with rome to start advancing again. when rome fell the world yet again lost tons of knowledge and became somewhat less advanced

fists favor conan who already had the edge over dredd
i remember someone from the comics once describing it that conan has faced opponents that were stronger, that were faster, or were smarter than he was. but never all three so he always edges out
Tyler Rogers

Juan Allen
Conan, if only because he's stronger.
Cameron Brown
Human ingenuity is pretty amazing honestly. Teach someone even a little bit about something, and they can apply to it something more grandiose in scheme. When I was in my 7th grade physics class, the teacher was teaching about the mechanics of energy and early forms of creating it (i.e. water wheels, steam, etc). I was bored, and doodled a design for a shitty steam "engine," I showed it to the teach after class, and as it would turn out I reinvented the Aeolipile. >then everyone clapped My point is, even if a human only knows a concept, the invention from that concept can be pretty grand.
theyd probably do steam boats before trains and use them almost exclusively to transport goods across their cities. there would be other applications, possibly spinning death machines for the colosseum, indoor cooling fans, some stupid bullshit like a spinning wall of feathers to tickle your nipples, steam canons that shoot streams of scalding hot steam
Josiah Torres
here's what i use, but its definitely too many and makes loading in obnoxious. drop some of the building sets probably unless you really want em
My nigga, the Dark Horse runs of King Conan and Conan The Cimmerian where Tomas Giorello did the art are great. I always go hunting for back issues at my local comic stores. I've got the adaptations for Black Colossus and Rogues in the House sitting right by desk at this moment.
Owen Harris
is this sexiles? is this mod any good? never played conan
Isaac Thomas
cause thats a 70's muscle fantasy comics Conan, not the book one
Bentley Miller
It certainly would have made it easier to police a gigantic empire that would eventually fall apart because its hard to police a giant empire
Jose Jones
Hell yeah. I love all forms of conan, but REH can't be topped
Ryan Allen
is there any illustrations of the book version by howard or commissioned by howard? even in the books hes got black hair as a defining feature despite how obsessed howard was with the celts
Ryan Bailey
I've had the complete chronicles in my shelf for a while now and finally started reading it on a whim a month back. Currently on "The Black Stranger". Howard's prose is a bit dry, but his world building is excellent.
Nicholas Turner
He was a real autist about his world and I love him for it. Conan has a bad rap as being generic fantasy shit, probably because of the movies, but it's actually really well done.
Anthony Nguyen
I really like the Dark Horse series and think it did a pretty good job portraying Conan in that medium. I grabbed a couple of the collections back in 2017 and still want to make a bad ass barbarian in a 5E D&D game
Thomas Wright
i would say its really not bad as far as sex mods go. buggy, but you can work with it. lot of variety of animations, and different positions usually have several variants. also being able to adjust speed, and its just natural after beating a woman unconscious and enslaving her you want to give her the fug
it may lead you as it did me to construct elaborate fap forts and bring back slaves from all over the map to fill the sky cells. just dont edge too long you'll ruin your dick
All I care about is a mod to make the dancer animations not hilariously bad garbage. All they need to do was a simple belly dance or something, not fucking breakdance.
David Martinez
is the mod multiplayer only or can you do stuff in singleplayer? again never played exiles
Nathaniel Watson
Someone has to ask so I'll ask, futa mods?
Asher Morales
either a mix between uncharted and GoW 4 or a bethesda style open world but with actual real combat with weapon/armour variety making up for lack of RPG stuff.conans always been shown to be extremely skilled in all weapons, just he prefers a one handed sword, same with armour never really hindering his movement, he just prefers not to wear any for max agility
Wyatt Moore
Self contained stand alone story with action, Hack n' Slash and adventure elements. Kinda like Dark Souls meets Witcher meets For Honor meets a modded Skyrim :D or something along those lines. Atleast you wouldn't run out of backstory and lore to draw inspiration from.
The problem is that no western dev probably dare touch an IP like this in the fear of A)Fucking up B)The amount of money needed to make a game of that scale and C)The (((video game media))) would be all over it calling it sexist or whatever bullshit buzzword pops to their head.
>same with armour never really hindering his movement, he just prefers not to wear any for max agility
This isn't necessarily true, Conan always wore armour if he could get it. It's just that he ended up in a lot of situations where he had no armour or armour would be impractical for him.
Aiden Sullivan
there is a belly dance. yeah the others are ridiculous but good for a laugh when combined with nipple chains and titty physics
both, either. i never touch multiplayer but there are many servers that run the sex mods
uh yeah i'm pretty sure there is a futa cock wearable for females. there are definitely strapons, i feel like i've seen an erect cock in there. as for having a realistically floppy one on your pc at all times, not sure. maybe on the workshop
Isaiah Moore
>An actual fleshed out Bronze Age >bronze age civilizations
nigga, that shit took place before recorded history
that was the whole point
it wasn't "bronze age"
Blake Cox
Conan comics, at their best, are literally some of the best pop-literature of the last 50 years.
Parker Morris
Robert E. Howard basically invented the 80s movie style one-man-army-killing-machine type action hero.
Jacob Foster
Reminder that pretty much any of Robert E. Howard's work is worth reading.
Connor Richardson
Robert E Howards original Conan stories are actually pure kino. I found a guide online of the chonological order to read them in (which I lost now, If anyone has it I would appreciate it)
I read them all on a long camping trip / summer a few years ago and its one of my favorite memories.
Justin Kelly
Do they make any big anthologies of the original Howard stories?
Dude's writing style was light-years ahead of any of his contemporaries and I would say still reads like it could have been written yesterday. Incredibly modern.
Henry Murphy
Post more Exiles. I want inspiration for when I bother playing the game again.
Matthew Sanders
What server settings should I use when playing Exiles single player?
Thomas Roberts
I wonder how he did that when he killed himself in 1936. Surely you meant to say John Milius invented them while using Conan as a basis for such an idea.
Adrian James
The bare chested barbarian blocking shots with his pecks and not using armor is a product of movies where being properly fully armor doesnt look as cool as showing the actors face/chest and armor gets hacked threw like it isnt there
Connor Garcia
hollywood didn't invent heroic nudity, user
Ryder Davis
Are you this autist because you seem kinda like it
Caleb Cruz
ive run out of sfw screens
up to you. but you can give yourself admin and change them whenever
also worth mentioning there are reshade presets for conan exiles that are resource heavy but give you some room to fine tune the atmosphere of your playthrough
Comfy dude. thanks. I wish the map was bigger, somehow it feels small despite it's admittedly big size.
Easton Gonzalez

Kayden Russell
i think it winds up being a little cramped between all the little biomes crowding each other and then the ghost fence in the way of any open space on the edges. but you can find some very comfy spots if you look
I myself love building in the snowy areas. I love snow dude. Peak comfy. But yours looks terrific. Would trade with and eventually go to watch gladiatorial fights in the pond.
Oliver Bell
Are you literally retarded?
Daniel Mitchell
got any screens? i keep meaning to build something good up north but i'm drawing a blank on novel ideas lately
but even here you were able to give it a nice personality with the terrace and little stoop. thats what i love about the building system it has and why its so frustratingly fallen short of its potential in other areas
I like Conan Exiles because it's the first 4-Word Horseman game that actually has some life to it. Friendly and hostile NPC's, lore, trading, a vaguely decent story.
Fun to build stuff, RPG system is alright if a bit too basic, clearly "inspired" by ARK the way you level up and put skill points. Combat is alright, it's not bad but where's the magic? Last I heard they wanted to add magic but couldn't find a VFX guy to live in Oslo or wherever and work on it full-time.
Reminder that these people made Anarchy Online, The Secret World and these Conan games. And they have been given exclusive rights to make 3 new Dune games.
How the fuck hasn't Funcom gone under yet is beyond me. Conan Exiles has to be the thing that is just barely keeping them afloat because the other games are not even remotely profitable anymore.
Liam Barnes
tfw lost all my conan exiles screens and all I have left is the one shot of my fiddling around with the Yamatai dlc I got a key for from doing a community building contest.
Is this game worth it for a messing around in single player? Pirate or not?
Juan Peterson
fuck thats right lmao. i remember being a little kid on launch day for anarchy online and i dont think that was ever topped for sheer ongoing catastrophe. secret world, another pile of squandered potential.
and yet i played and really tried to like all of them because each one had at least one aspect of it that made it special. funcom is a hole that good ideas crawl halfway out of
probably will play the dune games too because i guess they own all my favorite IPs now
Tyler Baker
Anarchy Online was and still is good though. Fun as fuck MMO, but it's got like what, less than 500 people playing it now? RIP.
Yeah, all of their ideas are good. The potential is there, but they squander it with half-assed work or extremely slow or non-existant development. It's a shame. 3 steps forward, 4 steps back.
Jason Sanchez
if you enjoy a beautiful but desolate sandbox with good building and decent survival mechanics then yeah
Ryan Watson
>beautiful but desolate Sounds like where I live. So, good to me.
Gavin Martin
It's not that desolate. There's NPC communities and even a friendly big-ish trading town but overall it's mostly people or beasts and monsters who want to murder you, yes.
Elijah Bell
they added a bunch of hostile spawns to seppupumu or whatever its called but it is a comfy place and you can get drunk with conan at the only bar in the whole province
Daniel Peterson
Wait, they added hostile people to that town? That's a shame. It was one of the few safe zones in the game and you can actively trade with NPC's.
I'm also sad they didn't get Arnold to voice Conan.
Samuel Rivera
yeah in a few spots, its annoying i have to put on cloak now if i just want to stroll around
is arnie even still doing VA work? doubt they could afford him if so
Nah, I doubt he is. It's just wishful thinking on my part. This Conan is pretty good so I don't mind.
Owen Ortiz
i would kill to see him reprise the role on screen as king conan that we see at the end of the stories, where he's older and calmer and even puts up with politics but still single handedly btfos the setite wizard plotting against him and laughs about it
Kevin Gonzalez
There's rumors of Paul Verhoeven doing it now but it's been a rumor for 7 years now so who the fuck knows. With an old Arnie as King Conan.
Jose Ramirez
well that was promising and disappointing all at once
i am praying for a good conan mod for bannerlord, complete with demons, monsters and cultists. Just a few months...
David Howard
I prefer reading them in order they were made. It jumps from King Conan (Phoenix on the Sword) to young lad (The Frost-Giant's Daughter) and all over the timeline but I don't mind.
The Celtic races were more varied in appearance than you might think. They once inhabited a vast swath of Europe, from around the Balkans to the Iberian Peninsula, all throughout Gaul and Britain as well. In historical records there are accounts of Celtic tribes who were swarthy and dark-haired. It's no stretch of the imagination to believe that Conan could be based upon one of these ancient Celts, long before the commonplace archetype of the Gaelic and Gallic Celts came along with their pale skin and reddish hair.
>King Conan (Arnold Swartzenegger) is growing old and looking to see which of his sons will inherit his kingdom >one prince is an effete petty homosexual, the other a fat sloth >Conan realizes he's spoiled them, and neither are worthy to rule >Suddenly, he gets word: years before he had an affair with a handmaiden, and she had borne a child >He has the young lad (Josep Baena) fetched >Having been raised in a simple life, he lacks the vices of his siblings >Conan takes him under his arm and trains him >A few years later, he announces that he has adopted him to be his legal heir >The princes are shocked and filled with rage >Before it's to be announced publically at the upcoming festival games, the princes conspire to have Conan murdered, and their sibling framed >He barely escapes, and lives in exile >trilogy of films ending with him recapturing his crown
Either 3rd person ARPG like The Witcher 1/2/3, or first person like Skyrim. Open world of course. No other type of game will do it justice. First person will be more immersive obviously, but third person will actually give a chance for the combat to be good. What's good is that there will be even less of a reason for your canonical character to play as either morally white or black than in the Witcher. Imagine all the fun quests that aren't hindered by conventional morality.
Alexander Anderson
Severance: Blade of Darkness
Wyatt Walker
He's just tanned. I kinda look like that when I tan in the summer, even though I'm very pasty naturally. I have naturally black hair too and I'm eastern European. Except mine turns to brown when I grow it out due to the sun. I guess they got that part wrong.
Evan Brown
Look at farmers and other people who worked a lot outdoors. I've never met anyone who got skin cancer. I feel like it's a meme cancer invented to sell sun creams.
Levi Parker
This. Too bad the game flew under the radar and absolutely killed the studio, meaning a game like this will never ever be made again.
Jaxon Richardson
Conan is bronze skinned as are all Cimmerians. The only "white" race as we know it isnt even human and they come from the north. Honestly read the opening to this it lays out the entire prehistory leading up to modern times.
Austin Cruz
Nordheimers, Picts and Zingarians aren't human?
Julian Taylor

Daniel Smith
RIP Secret World. Was a great single player RPG for a while there. I guess it had MP too but I never once did anything group related
Nathaniel Moore
3rd person action game with RPG elements, 40-50 hours of gameplay, a bit of branching dialogue, the only dialogue options you're given are stuff that Conan would say. Make it ridiculously sexist and chauvanistic just to see how apeshit the feminists go. Give Conan a love interest like usual, have her be a feisty broad but Conan effortlessly is better at everything which pisses her off but makes her wet at the same time.
Semi-open world with different regions to travel to. Wide variety of quests based on stuff from the comics, give us missions to steal treasure from a nobleman, go rescue a lord's daughter from cannibals, fight as a mercenary in a war, kill an evil wizard in the middle of a dark forest, eventually become king and spend the 3rd act of the game ruling over your new kingdom.
Aaron Bell

No Picts were more savage and niggerish than Anglos on the UK isles. However the real shitkicker is for such subhuman people they made some gorgeous silverwork jewlery and nobody knows how.
Bentley Adams
You guys know Funcom is working on a single player Conan game, right?
Austin Wood
Maybe because they weren't that niggerish? I mean, the guys invented soap, barrels, and had a good idea on how to make good steel. So maybe there's a bit of roman bias in the texts (although a good many roman scribes were autistic in their attention to detail) because the Celts thought it was a fucking great idea not to write anything, ever.
Logan Peterson
Picts were all sorts of shades depending on region, Zingarans are like modern shitskins and the nordheimers and aesir evolved from a seperate stock of apes to those of the rest of the known world.
Ethan Jones

Logan Torres
I think it's because no official Pict settlement was ever discovered. They were so deep in the Anglo forests that the Romans couldn't properly document them and they were so animalistically aggressive that talking would never work.
Nathaniel Taylor
Is conan exiles fun? Its expensive as fuck
Lincoln Martin
Yeah even alone but it can wear off fast.
Daniel Ward
no its not
Jackson Moore
I know it's just a prop for the movies, but this thing is the coolest sword in all of fantasy pop-culture.
Atlanteans knew how to make swords. I wonder why did their city sink in Conan universe. Was it just like our Atlantis because some god was breeding with humans?
You can get actually get a replica of it that is fully functional so you can use it as an actual weapon if you want, but it's very expensive.
Evan Stewart
It can be seen as the wrath of the Gods for becoming too OP, or just plain bad luck. Something similar happened to Acheronians with volcanoes (or was it earthquakes), then they proceeded to get punted to nothingness by the Cimmerians (instead of the Picts for the Atlanteans).
Justin Smith
Sucks that the Acheronians were wiped out because they both put down the Giant Kings and Serpentmen for being #1 threat to humanity along with almost making Set and his evils forgotten.
Jason Hughes
start a Yea Forums clan?
Luke Cruz
Wait, weren't the Giant Kings the rulers of Acheron? I must be mixing stuff up.
No Giant Kings are what ruled where Conan Exiles takes place, the Exiled lands. Acheronians were a civilization of humanity that came from the far North and began to attack the Giant Kings, presumably for having human slaves, demon summoning, necromancy and being Set worshippers.
And isn't Thoth-Amon responsible for putting the bracelet on you, and thus entraping you in the exile lands? Conan is there because he is trying to locate Thoth. Does Thoth even appear in the game at all?
Lucas Flores
>Picts >White
Howard makes a big deal about them being "colored people" in the books. There is a whole bit where Conan goes apeshit on some Picts because they threaten to rape a white woman.
It's implied they are more like Native Americans than actual historical Picts in setting.
Brandon Gray

Jacob Reed
The first movie is fucking great, the theme of adventurers hitting it big and then fucking everything up is classic. You can say the Thulsa Doom riddle of steel bit is dumb, but he is a fucking cult leader, literally every cult is dumb. It doesn’t adapt Conan well, but it’s good when considered out of context just like Dune
Angel Morgan
>It doesn’t adapt Conan well to big of a story to put into a movie that wasn't guaranteed to get sequels, considering that it is a good adaptation imo
Jace Anderson
Conan Exiles is pretty good though. But it definitely has a lot room for improvements and potential than it now stands. I enjoy it regardless a lot. Age of Conan mmorpg's starting island was peak kino as well back in the day. It's a shame only Funcom is doing anything with Conan IP pretty much despite the fact it's free IP to use for anyone.
Thomas Morris
>What would the ideal Conan game be like Yea Forums? Probably a mix of Diablo 1 and Dragon's Dogma.

Thief as in character archetype. He sneaks around, infiltrates, steals, lures people away and sucker punches them, and generally covets other people’s shit throughout the movie. Also, I might be remembering wrong, but doesn’t he go around a market stealing shit with subotai early on? And he’s not a “strong, silent type”, he’s mentally undeveloped due to all the slavery and shit, and basically just repeats things he heard as a slave from his masters throughout the movie. Also, the horse punching was peak dumb brute humour.

I looked at it further and apparently, it's public domain in Europe, but the licensing got extended by 25 years in the US. Basically, if you don't publish any Conan material in the US, you're golden.

I love the world of Conan. Just a complete gigantic shithole full of demonic shit where literally everyone is constantly trying to backstab each other. And I like the sense of isolation between each place, there's a little new world to discover whenever Conan travels.
Josiah Stewart
no wait maybe it was SHIFT+H

Imagine a game with the fun gameplay of Dark Messiah and the exploration of a TES game.
Aaron Gomez
It is so easy to imagine. Add stuff like monster combat from Dragon's Dogma and good elements from Dark Souls, with a pinch of lore/worldbuilding and storytelling of 90's cRPGs - a near perfect game is born. Or even simpler - Dark Messiah + TES + Dragon's Dogma + Witcher. All in first person with full body awareness or third person - depending on user's preferences.
Henry Jackson
Someone post more Red Sonja.

>dragon's dogma >dark souls sorry bro noone gives a fuck about japshit
Julian Russell
>japshit >Dark Souls >DD You certainly dont know what the hell you are talking about. If you need clarification: environmental detail (DS), level construction (DS), big monster combat (DD), combat animations/moves (DD). And just because they were made in Japan, doesnt make them japshit.
Ryder Rogers
Sexy anime babes running in gundam suits made from monsters isn't japshit?
Asher Campbell
action RPG would suit Conan just fine, he is canonically a multiclass anyway
Tyler Gonzalez
I don't remember Conan being capable of magic.
John Stewart
Yeah, however, i fail to see any "Sexy anime babes running in gundam suits made from monsters" in DD or DS - because what you described is not there.
Jack James
He can still use enchanted items/scrolls/trinkets and potions, right?
Aaron Gomez
Bump
Robert Anderson
Needed a little more time in the oven, but it was preeeetty bad ass
Levi Taylor
Both DS and DD are EXTREMELY Japanese, and in the case of DD, EXTREMELY Capcom at that. If you can’t see this you don’t play video games
Eli Anderson
Right, any expansions/dlc's for Conan: Exiles are mandatory or atleast worthwhile?
Kevin Martinez
In what way are they "extremely japanese"? You are just spouting shit. Elaborate, or fuck off.
Xavier Campbell
He is not a “multiclass” and he sure as fuck isn’t one canonically, since classes aren’t a fucking thing in Conan, you daft nigger. Shit like sneaking and stealing isn’t class specific in tabletop, a fucking wizard can go around picking pockets and climbing towers. Stop talking about shit you know literally nothing about.
Benjamin Rogers
Inn the way that their gameplay, level design, character design, monster design are clearly moulded from the Japanese industry. If you see Gran Soren and not realise it’s 100% Japanese level design philosophy and especially 100% Japanese approach to building medieval cities, you should stop talking about video games, because you don’t play them.
Landon Miller
>because you dont play them Stop projecting.

What is the game actually like in singleplayer?

Joseph Bailey
definitely not mandatory, arguably not worthwhile. they are exotic new building pieces and placeables, not very many for the price. i got the persian looking one because i liked it but thats it, up to you
He does punch a horse in one of the movies and a camel in both.
Henry Sanchez
No dlcs that add areas/places, items, extra stuff to do?
Austin Flores
the free updates have added a few new places so you have that already on your map. there is an underwater dungeon that got put in a little while ago and i havent even seen it yet. but no the dlc is just building sets
Lincoln Evans

i defy anyone to say this isn't the greatest film score ever composed
I've never seen a more gay and worthless post on Yea Forums(nel) until today.
Jaxson Clark
Now that would be a good game to play. Allow third and first person and it'd be near perfect. But it sounds like a lot of work and only Bethesda really makes interiors and most things interact-able. If they get the chance with the license then it would be near-near perfect.
Luke Hill
go to bed zimmer
Angel Young
lmao fuck off. Bethesda would make an awful Conan game. Does Fallout 4 and 76 and even Skyrim tell you nothing of the quality they strive for? The lack of it, rather.

Dude look at Arnold Schwarzenegger. The most perfect Conan specimen was a German
Jacob Cox
Dark Horse did it justice. I'm not sure of Marvel's recent take though as I haven't had the chance to buy any just yet but if you want a starting comic series you should start with those DH ones
Chase Cook
The old Savage Sword of Conan was incredible and by far the best thing ever put out by Marlel Also all the girls had perfect ass tits thighs and faces I couldn't believe it came from such a shit company
Why would he be Mesoamerican? Those features sound Roman or north-eastern Mediterranean to me.
Henry Reed
Conan is described as 'bronze' because he spent so much time in the sun in scorching hot lands
Joseph Morales
Shh, I don't think our pale troglodyte friend is aware of the fact that suntans are a thing.
Chase Scott
Arnold Schwarzenegger is Austrian, you moron
Lincoln Rivera
They did, why do people always assume they didn't and simply realizing they could power bigger stuff would have suddenly led to an industrial revolution? Metallurgy and in general material sciences weren't up to the task of steam power, neither was machining (it doesn't mean a single prototype couldn't be built, but the cost and resources needed would far outweigh the benefits of a steam engine, it was simply a lot more practical to just use horses to spin cogs, much like we can achieve fusion today but it just isn't good enough for commercial use).
Romans definitely knew about steam power, hell they even knew (to a point) about nanotechnology. Pic related was made by grinding gold into nanoparticles which were then added in, causing the cup to have different colours depending on the direction of light (bring that up next time some Aztec shitter tries to pull "muh great Aztec tech"). The reason they couldn't do much with it was because the other tech (like machinery to actually see what's going on) was simply not there.
Conan is clever as fuck and commonly outwits his opponents because he picks the blunt, effective routes regardless how difficult.
Carter Walker
Wishful... But that'd be kino. We need Conan back on the big screen!
>Conan 1982 and possible trilogy was about learning the riddle of steel >1st was about the Strength of Steel >2nd was gonna be about how it was to be used >3rd movie would have been about the consequences
"What is steel compared to the hand that wields it?"
Sebastian Bailey
Wow, it’s almost like realising steam can move stuff doesn’t magically allow you to create boilers that don’t explode under pressure or something.
Bentley Ross
You realise that discussion was about movie Conan being dumber than story Conan, right?
Evan Long
The real answer to the riddle of steel is to have the will to wield both. It wasn’t the sword, it wasn’t his flesh, but his willpower to overcome Thulsa Doom’s mesmerizing hypnotism, the thing that killed his mother.
Dominic Gonzalez
He is still clever though. Shrewd would be a good word. Also no I wasn’t aware.
Joshua Sanchez
same as multiplayer but there isn't any other player (which means some bosses are hard as fuck even at max level). I built shit all over the edge of the starting desert and the savanna.
Hunter Evans
Acting like Skyrim wasn't good is retarded circlejerking.
They absolutely make great open world games that's fun to explore and acting like it isn't is just... you live day to day or something. You don't remember the first time playing Skyrim? You're retarded
Ethan Carter
Can you just build shit all day?
Jose Butler
they would if you had thousands of employees
Isaac Butler
Still not mesoamerican which was my main point, dummy
Connor Butler
yep, and since you have admin rights you can basically go builder mode or give yourselfs infinite ressources. It's not as fun though, so I build smaller small settlements and connect them.
Gavin Moore
100% agree. I was quoting what the director said though for the trilogy. The strength of steel has its limits. Flesh comes and goes. But your will can live on forever.
Isaiah Carter
Arnold looks literally nothing like neither REH’s nor Frazetta’s Conan
Matthew Walker
Skyrim is an average came, fucko, and I thought the exact same upon its release.
Bentley Johnson
Name some games that do what Skyrim does.
Adrian Butler
Idk I think it'd be hard to find a mesoamerican in real life to fit as Conan. I don't think any of them have Conan's nose. Maybe the mouth and that's it
Brandon Morgan
Pray, tell me what does Skyrim do?
Risen. Gothic. Kingdoms of Amalur. Outward. Witcher 3. Dragon's Dogma. Kingdom Come. Divinity: Original Sin 1 & 2.
Luke Murphy
You still pissed lol and you're literally in the minority on not liking it upon release. I knew you'd say that for some reason though... hmm.
Camden Fisher
literally none of those besides maybe kcd is anything like skyrim, do you even play video games
Bentley Turner
ultima 7
Joshua Cook
All of these games are good but they don't have any interaction like how a Bethesda game allows.
David Harris
Glad I'm in the company of actual zoomers who think Skyrim is the peak RPG. How about you fuck off back to ResetEra?
Connor Thompson
>it’d be hard to find a [extinct culture member] as fit as a fictional character depicted as a roided up bodybuilder and created by a person obsessed with bodybuilding Woah, I guess you might be onto something.

What the fuck? What on earth does an Aztec accent even sound like
Adam Jackson
Lol so then this convo makes no sense since the beginning. But I was thinking their relatives which would be native Americans or Mexicans. They don't fit the bill. Arnold is peak Conan look
Nicholas Diaz
None of them have the exploration and interactivity of Skyrim. Like this reatrd says - - its a bad RPG. Its more of an action game now than right and proper RPG. Doesnt mean its good at action, even if mediocre, thats combined with exploration&interaction. And then there is modding aspect which shits on every game there is, even if core issues cannot be fixed (which is not true, but noone wants a hassle of dealing with the legal side of it).
Elijah Nelson
Conan looks neither like what REH described him as, nor as Frazetta painted him, on what basis are you claiming Arnold is “peak Conan” besides being introduced to Conan through his movies as a kid, in which you case your argument is about as solid as a younger guy claiming pic related is “peak Conan”.
Well because Arnold is the best HUMAN depiction we have ever had of Conan. Sure, Arnold doesn't have blue eyes or a hairy chest but it's literally the best we've got, therefore is the current peak of what Conan looks like.
Nathaniel Taylor
They picked him because he's the best we've got currently. But his mannerisms were more campy weren't they?
Austin Cruz
Why didn't sword and sorcery kino take off like it did in vidya? I want more fantasy films.
Well, what does a role playing game entail to you? Most people only thinking about the numbers behind the scenes but to me that's not initially what role playing was about. That's kinda why Pathfinder overtook DND for a few years, imo
Dominic Cruz
Nigga, even Frank Zane resembles Conan more than Arnold, and I picked him off the top of my head. He’s got a better physique, darker hair, and iirc blue eyes
>Frank Zane I'ma have to still disagree. He doesn't have a savage/exotic look to his face which is pretty important. Arnold is also a really good actor and his personality fits Conan so perfectly. He's still the best all around package I'll have to say.
That being said, who is your goto Conan figure? Cartoon or not
Christian Price
Golden Axe: Beast Rider was a pretty fun game. It wasn't GREAT or anything, but I had a lot of fun with it. It's not too bad if you're looking for a simple sword and sorcery action game.
Hes a Cimmerian. They are a barbaric tribal race from the northern roof of Hyboria. Their lands have very lite summers and very long and harsh winters. Because of this, most Cimmerian's are actually very pale, despite being renowned fighters and trackers.
Conan is bronze because 90% of his adventures are done outdoors in the southern lands and deserts. The remaining 10% are >2% dungeons/prisons/caves/whatnots >1% female bedrooms >7% tavern/tavern room
Humble Bundle is doing a Red Sonja bundle right now. Looks like theres only about an hour left for it though.
Ayden Nelson
You're fucking tripping if you think you could get away with a Howard-esque Conan game in this day and age. Ignore Conan exiles being full of fat ladies trying to get E-raped, though.
shut it down. jpg is my opinion lol it seemed like the 2nd movie was intentionally gimped, even though the first was a success. Let the men have a manly role model I say
Nicholas King
Choices and consequences, impact player's actions have on the world, multiple ways of solving an issue, unforseen consequences etc etc. Stats, classes, limitations on what each can do and how each interacts with the world. Stat/skill checks, sometimes you actualy benefit from failing them just as much as benefiting from them when succeeding. And similar stuff. Obviously most of it will never get implemented because no dev/studio will work on such a massive combo: open world/top-notch RP/great action combat etc etc. Its just too much.
Juan Gutierrez
No he isn't. Conan is there just because he's wandering. Exiles is set between the stories Xuthal of the Dusk and A Witch Shall Be Born. In Howard's stories even later on when he's king Conan and Thoth-Amon have no real interaction whatsoever, they never even meet. The derivative pastiche uses Thoth-Amon as a villain but even then I can't think of anything set around the same time where that would be the case.
Nathaniel Rogers
I've never actually read any of the King Conan stories. Are they just war stories or what are they about?
>savage and exotic user, Arnold looks like a nerd who got built and founded an 80’s metal band in the movie. He’s an Austrian with a tooth gap, in what part of the world is that savage and exotic? Look at this guy, it’s like a live action adaptation of that part in the Heavy Metal animation where the kid gets turned into a huge dude on an alien planet.
Frazetta’s Conan is what I see as the quintessential Conan image, even though it’s wildly inaccurate, it just became the iconic look.
What about Conan Chop Chop? It's a little cute but it looks fun for another coop beatem-up
Dylan Gutierrez
Friendly reminder for all conan fans >Howard was a crazy as fuck texan. He 100% believed that the small town he lived on the outskirts of was plotting to kill him. It was extremely routine for him to board up his entire house for 2 days simply to keep the mob at bay (by extremely routine, the sheriff commented it happened atleast once a week, most times 2. The boards only ever really came down when he had to go into town for supplies)
>Howard didnt "create" conan. Conan himself traveled through time on on of Howards benders, snuck up behind him, put his ancient atlantian sword against his shoulder and pushed it to his neck and commanded him not to turn around and begin to write down every word he said. When the sun would come up, the story would be finished and conan couldnt be found. This happened several times in his life.
>Conan invented the entire concept of swords and sorcery, And was so popular that Tolkien created the entire Lord of the Rings series to be a more 'Family Friendly' Conan.
Yeah, too true. I do think as far as picking your poison goes, Bethesda gives the best freedom of exploration and freedom to interact with most things. Story-wise there's not much freedom.
Jaxon Morales
Haven't even heard of it, but looking at it now I might try it out sometime.
Did Conan make all the other fags write about him by threat of execution, or was that just regular fiction?
Elijah Sanchez
Typically stories where Conan is king; it's him dealing with the fact that he for the most part hates being king and has to deal with bitchy nobles trying to usurp his rule or neighboring rulers invading his land. Phoenix on the Sword and Scarlet Citadel are good stories for this. There's the novella Hour of the Dragon - but that's more the story of how Conan became king of aquilonia.
Elijah Carter
The one where you can massacre hundreds of pikts in gore style, combat should be even better than in Sekiro
Tyler Adams
Fanfics. To be fair, more than half of them are actually pretty decent. Theres a fansite with a turbo autist who read every single conan book and shortstory ever produced and using the clues, timeframes and locations mention in the stories, put every single one of them in chronological order.
I found a torrent with every single book and SS and im currently reading them in said order. Turbo autist really did his homework cause its fucking spot on
Jose Watson
Some of the buildings in here, especially the grand prize winner, make me feel like a fucking retard with my boring cabins and castles.
Your pic looks like he's actually been living on the land and not air brushed by the studio. And yeah, it was made in the 80s, the worst decade of any decade, but I don't see him as a metal band 80s since they would spray their hair up and down and super skinny. Overall it's way less onions than the Conan 2011
Jace White
Sounds good, link please?
Luke Nelson
Haha he was actually a really great writer due to his vivid imagination then? No intelligence needed then. Stephen King btfo
Anthony Nelson
A good part of the movie literally looks like 80s metal photoshoots.
Conan Exiles had such a good building system that Arrk actually copied it and added it to their game and called it a new feature.
There were some mods that made it a little better, with the ability to overlap pieces, or to add structural supports for bigger roof sections, but even with the basic tools you could build some really cool castles and structures.
I wish when I played it for a bit, I cared enough to join a server and get friends to build with, but I just played solo and made a cool castle and then stopped.
Logan Clark
These guys aren't Conan and what's your point really? It WAS made in the 80s. Each generation lives off the trends they are a part of. Dressing like that was how you got laid. Now you only get laid if you mimic current trends. Even then Arnold Conan is still peak Conan. His look goes beyond 80s somehow
Parker Jackson
>n-no, he’s meant to look dopey, that’s peak conan because it’s savage and exotic and dressing like that is how you got laid, even though It was a niche movement and Arnold was famed for getting laid by flashing his biceps and he dressed and fashioned his hair literally nothing like that There is a tome to stop and that time is 15 minutes ago.
Nathan Brooks
>These guys aren't Conan and what's your point really? Yeah no shit, that's a photo of the metal band Manowar.
His statement was that Conan the movie looked cheap and janky like a Manowar photoshoot.
David Edwards
Because it's FREE DOMAIN in Europe.
Blake Foster

Liam Ward
Titanic open world a la Daggerfall, filled with roleplay options and rpg mechanics, but with current tech.
Bentley Butler
Sea peoples are kind of overblown. They fucked some shit but they didn't cause the collaps
i heard somewhere, don't remember where, that the sea people were more an effect or symptom of an already global collapse taking place
Julian Rivera
>n-no he's meant to look dopey I never said he looked dopey or anything like that. I said his looks go beyond 80s style. Just attributing it to 80s style is retarded.
80s style was to have long hair. Conan is depicted with long hair. But being made in the 80s doesn't mean it was following those trends. Although to some I guess yeah it's hard to escape the similarities.
Conan 1984 was actually well made though. Regardless of your own opinion it's considered a cult classic goes well beyond just a simple early 80s movie.
Cheap and janky are just opinions. He's attributing it to the time it was made but its references weren't 80s in style. Just the cameras and technology.
Cameron Garcia
Because steam technology is based on machinery withstanding a lot of heat and pressure without compromising structural integrity. Expecting Romans to build steam powered machines is like expecting them to build cars because they knew fuels existed.
>two guys hardly in the movie means it's all 80s in style
Cope. Arnold Conan is still the best Conan movie
Eli Collins
Nobody argued that it wasn’t the best Conan movie. You claiming Arnold’s Conan is the best portrayal of Conan is what’s fucking retarded.
Carter Martinez
who then, mamoa? Sorbo?
Elijah Gomez
>of these 3 pieces of shit, one stinks less than the others Wow
Blake Mitchell
Nobody fucking talked about live action only, retard. Every single artwork is better than any movie Conan.
Dominic Johnson
I said HUMAN depiction of Conan. Not talking about art portraits of comics. He's the best specimen we've ever had in our human society.
Jackson Smith
THe first time you said this shit was As a reply to a chain of posts discussing Conan illustrations depicting him as some mesoamerican type dude because of Frazetta. Learn to read and fuck off.
Isaac Gray
>human depiction of conan As opposed to all those other depictions of him as an alien?
Xavier Parker
human as in person, not as in a drawing idiot
Carson Myers
Except you jumped into a discussion of visual depictions of Conan, claiming Arnold the best, directly comparing him to illustrations. Learn English, Pedro.
Hunter Russell
And even earlier And another point here Clearly it's talking about human depiction here too
Just pay attention to the convo kid
Anthony Morgan
You're retarded Calling him mesoamerican is taking it out of the art form already since mesoamericans actually exist
Jackson Ramirez
test
Michael Butler
Learn to read, Miguel. Trying to backpedal after you fail to understand basic English doesn’t make you look less retarded.
James Lee
As a person Patrick Stewart seems like such a tool - yes man, he'll talk to please.
Kevin Martin
Never post on Yea Forums again you vile zoomer shitbag
Arnold's Conan wasn't in the look. It was that Arnold was basically as near to Conan as anyone in the modern era could get. He had a very tangible animal spirit that carried the film. You could even have a quiet moment alone with Conan contemplating and not lose interest. This is no longer true of any actor below age 30
James Parker
It's mesoamericans vs celts. Cimerians are based on Celts but he was saying Conan looked more mecoamerican. My point was if put a native american on the big screen as Conan instead of having Arnold as Conan it would not feel like Conan. A hairy chest and blue eyes are not the big picture of the spirit of Conan. Arnold fit that spirit perfectly.
Evan White
"It's too 80s bro!"
Charles Ross
Wasn't tha game were people spent most of their time with dong sizes?
Isaiah Parker
You literal retard lol you can't keep up with a simple convo it seems.
Logan Hill
it was the most important stat
Juan Brooks
That 3 part book collection from del ray is pretty great has the maps history and rough drafts from howard
god i wish the /ceg/ was still up until the retards decided to make 5 different servers
Gavin Campbell
I'm confused how that works. Should I read del ray or go straight to Howard? Is it a curated REH 3 part book?
Cameron Myers
del ray published all of howards original conan stories in 3 books thats what it means
William Hernandez
Much appreciated
Adrian Brown
>Hitler came Conan How could such a great writer forget the word "in"?
Chase Ortiz
Is Conan too manly for the current era?
Camden Collins
yes he takes women when he wants the frost giants daughter would cause an uproar if released today
Colton Brown
Funny that she was gonna try to kill him and eat his heart or something. He got her back in my book
Christian Rivera
How good is fucking Conan? I'll post 3 little examples of the writing on it. You read your weeb novels thinking they know how to make a good "mc" like you kids say? HA!
A fucking shame english have devolved with time (these are 40's books.)
Pretty fucking visual. I've only read the comics but I think I'll be buying the books soon
Eli Diaz
>no u
Alexander Ward
They do kill each other but they always prioritize the player
Jordan Hall
>doesnt tell how Conan snapped that fucker's neck >can see it happening nontheless Now, how do we implement a moment like this into a video game? Stat/skill-check? QTE? Simple movement command? Dedicated hand-to-hand button? Action button + stat/skill-check? I know QTE are garbage, so none of that then.
William Nguyen
You have to move towards him, and then press forwards + dedicated hand to hand at the same time, and then start spinning the movement stick in a circle while you rotate the controller side to side and quickly tap the touchpad over and over again.
Sorry, moviebox exclusive.
Nathan Davis
>controller its for KB+M only. W + grab key followed by grab key + block key followed by holding block key + action key at the same time.
Asher Ramirez
fuck that scene was so brutal truly a great writer
Nathaniel Rodriguez
Why did funcom end up the company making conan games? its a perfect setting, from the knights of aquilina (i forget how its spelled) to the picts and dark magic that set worshippers wield. its got everything
Daniel Hughes
So I ended up treating myself and splurging on this. Now I just need to figure out the right reading order for it. Gonna be a fun night ahead.
Jonathan Wright
>comics hope you guys dont do this you HAVE read the original short stories by Robert E. Howard the only creator of Conan the Barbarian stories?
Nicholas Ramirez
Because no other company was smart enough to grab it.
Colton Gonzalez
Look up Onslaught for Sega Genesis, it's the ideal barbarian game period.
Adam Turner
But that's like a tryhard Dunsany parody without the charm of the original.
