Conan Exiles is an open-world survival game set in the brutal and unforgiving world of
Hyboria. The game was released in 2018 for PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 and has since
received several large updates including a new map, build styles and armour designs.
In Conan Exiles players start as a criminal sentenced to death but then are rescued by Conan
himself. You create your character from a list of options ranging from scars and haircuts to
religion and private area size (PC version only). From there players must explore the Exiled
Lands or The Isle of Siptah gathering resources, building shelter and fighting to survive against
both the environment and other players. The game features both PvE and PvP gameplay, allowing players to choose their preferred server at the beginning.
One of the key features of Conan Exiles is its crafting system which allows players to create a wide variety of weapons, armour, tools, food recipes and decorations. At first this crafting system can be very overwhelming as there is a lot to try and understand. Having to gather multiple
resources that are needed to make an item that’s only one piece of a particular weapon or
armor set is somewhat daunting but rewarding task at the end of it all. Players can also build
their own settlements complete with shrines, buildings, and defensive structures.
I’ve played a few survival games like Ark, Atlas, Rust, Valheim, Fallout 76 and even DayZ. Out
of all those games Conan: Exiles has the best building mechanics by far. The locations you can
build , how big you can build and the styles are all amazing. The game also features a robust
combat system with a variety of weapons and fighting styles to choose from. There is even a
taming system where you can have strong pets and NPCs as bodyguards, but you have to put
the time and effort into finding, incapacitating and “breaking“ them in order to have them by your
side. There is also a Clan system in which you can start a group with up to 10 players and try
your hand at ruling the server and being the best PvP fighters around.
What also makes Conan unique is its religion system. At the beginning of the game you can
choose from a variety of religions all with their own unique characteristics. You have to make
sacrifices to these gods at the shrines you can build at your base and once you max out the
shrine level you can summon the god to destroy other players bases. It is difficult to do as there
are a number of different steps you have to do in order to get to that level but it’s a very powerful
and amazing thing to watch on your screen.
There’s so many things to do in this game that one you could clear every other game off of your
console and spend hours upon hours playing it and not get bored. From playing on multiplayer
servers and taking part in PvP and clan wars to playing on single player mode and role playing
your heart out there are countless ways to play Conan:Exiles. Most people forget about the PvE
aspect of the game and that unlocks so much more content like Huge boss battles in dangerous
dungeons that have puzzles to solve along the way, world bosses only the strongest can take on
and even NPC strongholds to take out for loot!
Overall, Conan Exiles is an engaging and immersive survival game with a rich and detailed
world to explore. While it may not be for everyone, fans of the survival genre and especially fans
of games where you can build huge complicated structures will likely find a lot to enjoy.
