Despite its issues and flaunts, I couldn't keep myself away from Conan Exiles. Its meaty combat, huge map and nicely paced objectives made the game morish, even when I got lost (in the menus, not the jungles).
Do not expect an evident or strong storyline in the first number of hours, or to be spoon-fed how to play the game through tutorials or directions. Prepare to die in the beginning, a lot. And most of all, prepare to explore a beautiful and diverse landscape with limitless things to discover and create, and to have a lot of fun doing it.
In this game everything takes time. This is not a game that discounts and is not in the least meeting those who have never played a Survival. You will have to have a lot of patience, especially at the beginning. But all this changes in multiplayer.
Conan Exile's gameplay is a lot of fun whether you're playing by yourself or with other people. It's also extremely addictive which makes the game worth your time. It provides a decent challenge with a lot of different features and the developer promises to incrementally add new content which is great news. The game could benefit from some optimization since the game suffers from considerable frame drops and other technical glitches which negatively affect your enjoyment.
Half-broken and needlessly obscure, but if you have the patience this challenging survival game can be extremely satisfying – and it’ll be even better when it’s finished.
Conan Exiles is one of the most disappointing games I have played this generation. I have not experienced another game on PlayStation 4 as broken as Exiles. It is hard to believe that a game could be released for purchase in such bad condition. In another genre, the bugs in Exiles might be fun or amusing. In a survival game, they are crippling. Gamers deserve, and should demand, better.
Awesome game. Loads of customization, good, immersive and varied combat, a plethora of animals, monsters, creatures and gorgeous environments and finally an amazing epic soundtrack. 10/10.
The game gives you the opportunity to play among a bunch of players and the game is not ugly to look at. This game gave me the experience of playing on a survival server with a bunch of strangers who could decided at any moment to cut me down for no reason.
Cons: trash fighting system, painful body recovery after death
Pros: beautiful places, and music, exciting adventure and exploration feeling.
Verdict: the game is really enjoyable for a while, the adventuring, building, surviving part truly works, but if you have a standard for skill involved fighting and need for challenges, then you are going to be sick with the fighting system eventually.
Pros explained: the game has a nice atmosphere, exciting changing music, cool places to explore, and you can build our camp / bases almost anywhere, interesting crafting system (involves a fair bit of grinding materials though).
Cons explained: for casual players it is probably gonna be fine, you go there with your big sword and armor, hit the bosses while they hitting you and you win eventually. YEAH! you ARE the man! But for those who ever played sg like Nioh or Dark Souls, the fighting system is going to be truly painful for sure. The skill level involved is pretty low, and the fights are mostly stat checks. The 'lock on' system is truly terrible. If you lock on someone, you basically loose all of your mobility, you start to move with really slow speed, and also you loose your lock if you start to dodge sideways too much. So you cant do sg like lock on a boss, circleling around them, with clever dodges, while slowly waring them down. Also hits are really inconsistent. Worst of all it is inconsistent if your hits land or not often even if you are literally in the face **** beast. I already talked about the **** lock on system but the other bad part is, that if you not lock the target, you miss your hits like 70%. All in all: the bosses and fights were designed in zerging online players or at least you and a strong thrall / pet who just tank all the hits, in mind, and sadly there is no room for compensate for the lack of thoose with skill and careful experimentation.
Cuando inicias el juego por primera vez te encuentras con una cinematica mas o menos interesante para luego acceder a uno de los peores menus de personalizacion de personaje que he visto.
despues llega la cinematica con CONAN que por un momento logra emocionarte un poco, esto sin embargo dura poco ya que al iniciar el juego te topas con una interfaz conpleja y anti intuitiva que no hace mas que entorpecer la jugabilidad de un juego que por su genero ya es bastante lenta.
graficos y animaciones mediocres se encargan de sacarte de la poca inmersion restante que pudiste haber tenido.
Lo unico rescatable seria el universo en el cual se desarrolla la historia (aunque no haya alguna) ya que si no fuese por los problemas anteriores estaria encantado de explorar y su banda sonora que esta bastante bien.
EN RESUMEN mejor pierdan su vida en ARK que en esto.
