In Conan Exiles (PC, PS4, Xbox One) there is first information about slaves and the gods.
“The dead are dead and gone is gone. I have a ship and a battle-ready crew and a girl whose lips taste like wine. I never wanted more,” that is Conan’s favorite part for Joel Bylos, the Creative Director behind Conan Exiles. This pragmatic approach is intended to be reflected in the survival MMO, which is supposed to enter Early Access on PC at the end of January. The game is also being developed for Xbox One and PS4.
Conan Exiles: No hero, but just a desperate man in a harsh world
The player does not take on the role of a hero. He is just another man in a harsh world full of violence, where the power of the stronger counts.
An important part of Conan Exiles will be “Thralls”, slaves. Players can overwhelm NPCs, drag them to their camp, strap them to a torture wheel, and break their will there.
Each type of slave has a specific use. Fighters guard the headquarters, Archers man the palisades, Blacksmiths and Tanners practice their craft, Priests take care of the altars, and Dancers are responsible for the soul of the hero.
Giant snake and metal titan – the gods send help
Those who get along well with the gods, live and kill by their commandments, can expect rewards. A metal titan or a giant snake can be summoned. The titan can attack enemy settlements – the snake protects its own buildings.
The harsh world of Conan Exiles is also supposed to leave its mark on the player characters. Those who stay near “corrupted things” will be affected by corruption themselves. A enslaved dancer provides distraction and recreation. According to Bylos, a tribute to Star Wars Galaxies and the entertainers.
