[@opperbuil]

This video is so much more interesting than reading patch notes. TYVM, Wak!

[@jamesanthony8438]

And the video is so much more fun than the actual game, now!

[@opperbuil]

@@jamesanthony8438 I'd say that's very much open to opinion. I love to play my Knight inquisitor this moment, going to Darfari camps to PURGE THE HERETICS, capture their sorcerers so the Khitan can PURGE THE HERETICS and requisition some t4 thralls after I PURGE THE HERETICS on the wheel of pain. But I agree on the video being fun.

[@sergiohenrique2411]

and probaby more interesting than playing the game all together tbh ..

[@mikestone6078]

Agreed!

[@saintjoker7561]

Thanks wak I was waiting on a rundown of the update.

[@Hondo_1075]

Hey Wak. New to the channel and new subscriber. I have enjoyed your work with the Neebs Gaming crew. Keep up the good work.

[@wak4863]

Thank you!

[@ds222]

The new armor reminds me of the “Lead Farmer” scene in Tropic Thunder

[@brsubwayfc]

The game must be dying in terms of revenue. The removal of a battle pass and the content cadence goes from three months to six isn’t a good sign. That sounds like moving towards maintenance mode.

[@indicaxnwrathchild7062]

Or new project.. all the same. Not a good sign. Obolus are a good sign & addition, however. If it rotates, as Wak mentions, it's a promising aspect, change imo. If we can get varying schematics etc over time, it's an object that keeps us playing their game to earn the content they're working on, etc. It can keep a player base going while they work on "The next Big" whether within or outside. I'm at least saying I'd like to see them giving us something. It's not a dead project, maybe in a poor management's position, goes without saying. Game needs life & advertisement according to its gamestyle. We're still here listening & upstanding artists making content for it. Not a bash on your comment, more of, someone hear me/us here with the concerns

[@paulhillier7032]

They are focusing on Dune Awakening, since that is their new baby. Conan is about 10 years old now. 😂

[@SquirrelGamez]

More like greed mode. And the worst part is the greedier they get, the less people they get to spend on the game. Bad move, Funcom.

[@justinanthony9476]

If only they could just understand that the raiding is broke as fuck , no point in building

[@brandondorman8986]

Games been dead for years! Devs gave up years ago.

[@andrewking5055]

Love that you do stuff with neebs gaming now. love your updates!

[@benchartrand3014]

Cant help but feel the no battle pass is a bad thing. It means every single new item they make will now be an absurd price in the bazaar.

[@natb8800]

Yay new Conan vid

[@ComatoseJedi]

I just like the enthusiasm Wak has now. I have it, too.. Took them long enough to get right. Now, the Neebs' boys won't have an excuse to kill off their thralls.. but something tells me, they'll find a way to kill them anyways, lol.

[@wak4863]

We all have our skills!

[@Nakamichi_Jun]

I could listen to wak talking conan for hours

[@The-Real-aPOC]

Thanks Wak

[@2236gaming]

Is the Dead Woman's Tressers a reference to the rope used in The Tower of the Elephant story?

[@MentalSurvival]

Yep! Good catch.

[@jeffreyacevedo9640]

I like the down but not out for the purge. I have had thralls chase down big groups of enemies and swarmed. Sometimes I loose sight of them due to the chaos of high level purges and in thickly wooded areas. I do wish that thralls actively participating in a purge could gain some level points at end of successful purge, even if only at a percentage of normal rate.

[@dhampir216]

Set your fighter to hold or withdraw so they don't chase things down. Archers always have set to Hold ! They won't move their spot

[@tegamingother]

@@dhampir216 Um they have their default at withdraw but still same thing in a way i guess.

[@matthewdougherty1159]

i just hope the bugs on console get fixed. for as large as a download Conan is unless i see a dedicated patch note for xbox/ps4-5 and the like it takes too much HD space to find out nope still can't start a game without CTD. and i am not sure about anyone else i have not seen Conan's bar since AOS at least for ps4

[@AviusL]

That Scorpion tail swing was personal.

[@griffinhatchling]

Still waiting for: -the white dragon trophy head -the fix/fill of the alpha wall hole in the east wall of the nameless city. - a more interesting pupose of the endgate of the silver mine, other than being a giant flashy exit.

[@weediestbroom]

I got the sundered manicles schematic. Used it in my inventory. Didn't learn anything. Can't find them to craft in any station and they don't appear in my any knowledge tabs. Am i missing something or have i just been dicked?

[@jhonliesea8510]

Is this stuff like the battle pass items pay to rent ? Or as the items owned like dlc ? When funcom closes Conan servers all that stuff will be unlocked but not available to build or place or wear

[@ianoag]

Hmmm interesting. I like your videos - they're concise and to the point

[@wak4863]

That’s what I try to provide.

[@whackazzjiveturkey6864]

Since the sacred hunt i've been having an issue. I'm on xbox one, my game updates but things don't change. Never saw the random werewolf attacks and the traders wouldn't spawn. Now the caravans won't spawn. I do have the down not out feature, don't have fatalities though. What is happening? Funcom won't get back to me.

[@xxxlonewolf49]

Down but not out, nice. What mod did they steal it from?

[@livchenallesistlila699]

nice one, this game is one of a kind^^

[@alparslan5071]

Is armor schematics are account wide or only one server

[@aDNAn.995]

Please don't forget Isle Siptah when you look for traders' location. Thank you :)

[@davidkaye8712]

Of course Wak sets off fireworks during the DAY, why am I not surprised :)

[@wak4863]

This is why I can’t have nice things.

[@jbudlawrence8133]

I also done the same thing once I saw them lol

[@SakisLio08]

I forgot this game existed

[@aresgalamatis7022]

@5:35 I only saw one legendary hammer for sale (1k oboli), no other weapon.

[@Miztory1887]

same here, only the hardend steel weapons change by the merchant location.

[@kristiannicholson5893]

down but not out might get me to do another playthrough

[@thorleyphotography]

Thanks for the quick and great vid. Surely they worked on more than one bug. Anyone else tired of getting stuck in your horses behind! The can't walk loop bug, falling through floors, falling to the centre of the world. I hate to love this game.

[@ViktorZane101]

They need more end game content for dungeons and such AND map expansion or new mapset!

[@srgreeniii]

This should help with the neebs videos

[@neo_o8057]

what really is amazing is how those atributes are growing in your chibi 🤣🤣

[@hanseluvpopitledoyalboton1436]

would like to see what new legendaries are on offer wak, i saw a 2 handed hammer, but not sure if they are ....recipes? or just the item?

[@wak4863]

It was just the hammer I saw and it is for the item.

[@mikeriley2475]

So does this mean that instead of a battle pass we will just get a few content dump (battlepass stuff) or does it mean the battle pass is free and you still have to play the game and earn the content?

[@kukipett]

Finaly we have something interesting in that update, the down state of followers is great as we often fall in love with them!!! 😁 And the sorcerers events were what i liked to do during age of sorcery, that was something fun to do. The battle pass was mostly a pain in the ass, but it was also a way to get some features for free, now i guess we will be forced to go to the bazaar. Well Funcom has probably noticed that most people just bought the new battlepass with the money they got during the previous battlepass and did not buy anything else. So now the bazaar will be the only place to find what we got during the battlepass, well now we will be forced to pay, i never bought anything in the bazaar and i will never do it for sure.

[@jasonhaettich2610]

down but not out work the same for pets?

[@STANDBYMEChannel]

The straw hat outfit you're wearing is really pretty. What mission did you get it from or how did you make it???

[@MusouWarrior720]

defeating sorcers and turning the skulls into ancient obolus you can buy it from khitan merchants

[@MrFatbard]

it would be cool if the recipies you learn from this stuff would be remembered knowlage so you wouldnt have to unlock it on multiple servers

[@NinaOilily]

does it seriously not transfer servers again ? -_-

[@d4fiant90]

So it sounds like devs started taking notes while playing Soulmask 😂

[@louispellissier914]

will those new recipes go to the ancestral knowledge tab?

[@Miztory1887]

unfortunatelly not. it goes to regular armor tab.

[@SUCCUB0I]

I REALLY wish they would just be account bound after you buy them and the event just be permanent. The fact that if I join a server right now and can't get my favorite armor in the game (The cloak from the sacred hunt) makes me not even want to open the game. Limited timed events with limited timed rewards are stupid and not needed in Conan.

[@b5freak445]

3:35 This is how it should have been back when they had this in AoS Chaps. 2 & 3. Why they thought we'd only want the Mad Prophet pieces and not the recipe to make it ourselves to this day still escapes my reasoning.

[@tegamingother]

I wonder if they ever fixed pet damage or anything the tiger pet still does 6 ppoints of damage at this current time, on console anyway.

[@anyaromanova3512]

This is so cool! Please tell me what that armor is though 😮

[@zanwanted2792]

its funny how in older comments most of people was crying to remove battle pass and when they actually done it now it's a bad sign

[@endlesstrench]

Is this ONLY in exiled lands or can i find it in siptah too?

[@Miztory1887]

also on siptah. just played a bit today but seems like they are all over the map.

[@namelessjedi2242]

The possibility of “forever” thralls would be much appreciated. In a single player game they’re not just expendable resources, they’re friends and companions.

[@yahim0568]

I wonder is siptah will get the skull event..

[@valgilson6504]

Yes, I started a toon on siptah and came across one of the caravans.

[@marcmiller-ml4hz]

i went to mek_kamoses's spire. couldn't find where to trade in skulls. am i in the wrong place?

[@OlSkunGun]

You need to find Khitani cart. If locations of carts is exact as in Age of Sorcery then nearest ones looking from perspective of MekSkemosis is one in front The Den [between The Den and nearby oasis] and one that should be somewhere nearby today Al-Merayah stronghold

[@RedXWerewolf]

feels like this is there way of saying "we are done with this game, moving on with Dune, Farewell and good luck exiles." ... Im not sure how I feel about this really, I'd be ok with it if they just removed the Bazar also, and put out one last DLC with all the Bazar item in it. for lie $15 maybe

[@jamesanthony8438]

They've also jacked the prices of everything. Definitely not worth it in _this_ economy. Man, I miss Orange Man Bad. =(

[@Nasko_Nikolov]

​@@jamesanthony8438Don't worry, he's very likely to come back this year's elections.

[@Jus_Joj]

I mean, let's be honest, if they were to bundle up all the Bazaar content into one package after the game is fully dropped support, they would charge like, 500 dollars for it. It'd be the price point of a damn Star Citizen ship. If we were to take all the individual items in the bazaar at this point, at the price points of previous DLC offerings, so, around 10 cents a pop, maybe 15 at most, they'd be worth around $140-$210. But Tencent wouldn't allo- *cough* Funcom *is interested in gamers™ and does not want to do that* so ofc it'd be like 10 offerings at $49.99 a pop.

[@Overlord9129]

Wonder If you could farm Appsro for Sorcerer skulls LMAO

[@sntdc2017]

Yep catch him passing out every 10 seconds and have at it

[@pixleyes]

My Bearer's HP got nerfed hard.

[@Jus_Joj]

Your bearer's job is to carry things, not fight. No shit.

[@tegamingother]

It goes by race now. Or where they are found like a volcano bearer will have higher amounts of hp rather then a beginner thrall bearer which will have way less hp gain.

[@stevet1396]

Ya, I'm fine with it. Before the nerf there was no reason to bring anything but bearers with you. Them not being ultra tanks, makes sense.

[@christhompson9427]

I dont see patch notes link in description

[@wak4863]

Sorry, they are added now.

[@Aleetoo]

Wow, just when soulmask went out they added this lol 😂

[@steezwts9093]

Did I see a wand ?

[@AntwKats]

0:26 does Followers extend to Pets aswell?

[@wak4863]

Yes, just not golems.

[@jvstice56]

Hopefully, this is a step in the right direction. We'll see in the future.

[@kopicat2429]

What a thumbnail.

[@Draceb]

The one thing that keeps me from playing this anymore is the tethering, i really wish they would update that feature on the engine for PC, enable the teathering in local hosting to go away like every other coop game that exists. I myself do not want to play on a public or own a server but i prefer my own settings, as do my freinds. But the local coop with tethering makes the game unplayable. Thus far this game is amazing even at its age. But the teathering feature in local coop really keeps me from playing this with my friends.

[@thebard7983]

Wakwakwak. Wingadingdang

[@rimvive8450]

To say it short. They added stuff I didn't need.

[@Tkghandi]

As my fav content creator you should check out Enshrouded and give me some tips lol jk thanks for the vid

[@kingshum143]

I lost all of my unnamed Hunter of jhebbal sag after updated !!!!!! Just that one I named is still alive, hvnt shown wt killed them on the clan log, just said died and all of them died at the same time!!!!! Thought the devs used the code to remove all werewolves but killed those owned by players also

[@weihongtan649]

this event more hard work to do. not like battle pass or twitch tv drop which can use on others server .

[@my0866]

No updates every 3 months , instead every 6 months, sorry but this just sounds like bugs (especially on consoles) will take twice as long to be fixed and that the Devs aren’t going spend as much time on content. But I bet the Bazaar is not going to be neglected like the game.

[@jamesanthony8438]

Overpriced sets of merchandise for minimum effort. Just gets worse every season, now.

[@cynicalthoughts4695]

How long until the current battle pass ends anyone plz?

[@wak4863]

If I was to guess based on the post and update you have 3 more months.

[@Khalifrio]

I want to know why they stopped updating the dev kit. Its been several patches with no dev kit update. They keep patching the game and sooner or later mods will stop working.

[@hypnot1zer404]

I belive this is a very good overall update. Funcom seems to take conan seriously for once

[@williamparke9527]

Thank god for the thrall patch. I just lost my captain ishuaba or however you spell his name the other day fighting the cimmerians at the burial mounds. I was so sad and was not ready for that. Just ran in blind lol.

[@tegamingother]

The devs did not fix the cimmerian or accursed armor situation yet so it's best to go in with extreme caution.

[@CROS5HAIR]

The removal of the battle pass can mean only one thing, we will have to purchase the new Ages almost like expanded content or DLC's. Two years (if an Age have 4 chapters) is enough time to develop payable content. This is my assumption and is not factual but it makes sense to me. They are a business after all and people were cheesing the battle pass anyway.

[@devilsmessanger]

not very happy about no more battle pass , that was only thing with good value , 10 bucks for quite a few mixed items . now there will be only grossly overpriced bazaar .

[@Dcully]

I started playing this only last week but got sidetracked with soulmask, now I'm torn 😮😮

[@wak4863]

:) two good games to be torn between.

[@DiogenesDworkinson]

Down but not out is a good feature.

[@MissouriReaper]

No more Battle Pass Hell ya

[@chrismcfizzle]

This last battle pass is the last one i got, I play thos on PS and PC, so I was buying 2...it isn't worth it anymore, to me. I used to play this game A LOT, I still jump on, mainly to play the mods I've installed, I don't do online, too many cheaters...single player only.

[@zazoreal5536]

Legendary weapons? No they are not Legendary because they ultimately fade away! Legendary thing are famous enough to survive through Time.....That is what makes it Legendary. They need to change it back to the way it was before.

[@jayfrei1034]

The battle pass had a lot of good stuff in it. And it helped gave me a goal to reach throughout the game. So to take out my frustration, I'm just going to log onto Conan and decapitate some sorcerers😂

All of these updates to Conan Exiles is going to make the game to big for any hard drive space.

[@im160bpmplus]

Six months back, they changed the BP season to 4 chapters because they couldnt finish the Age in time.. Now theyre scrapping it? This seems like there is really deeper issues at FC than before. I wish they would just be honest FOR ONCE. Ive played FC games since Age of Conan Beta, nearly 20 years ago, and they have always kept their cards close to their chest and always had a very bad updating regiment. Conan Exiles use to be my favorite game that I would always come back to the most but now I think its SO outdated Im not sure if I can dedicate any more of my time or money to supporting it. I'm actually surprised FC havent changed the name to Conan Exiles Legends or Unchained like they do to all of their scrapped projects. I would have liked to se what the new Amazonian faction in the Dev Kit was all about..

Sure sounds like they should have just left the game with DLC packs instead of driving away people with the battle pass and bazaar.

[@godspeed1808]

No more battle pass, all bazaar.

[@Xilivian]

Very glad they're finally ditching the abomination that is the Battlepass. Hope all other companies out there have also realized its a waste of time and effort to produce them, and how insulting they are towards their player-bases. Daily&weekly incentivized content in a sandbox game CAN BE A GOOD THING, for the record. It can give you direction in things to do, while providing neat, worthwhile rewards to improve your experience. But locking it behind a paywall that instead reads as, "Pay for the right to be able to earn these rewards, after you've wasting enough time grinding" is a massive slap to the face.

[@OlSkunGun]

Well if you want to pay 20,000 Crom Coins in The Bazaar for Battle Pass quantity of stuff then go ahead support end of Battle Pass

[@acid5ive244]

@@OlSkunGun Yea people should take a minute and think, where do they think all the things you used to get easily in the Battle Pass will go, in game? of course not, they will go into the Bazaar, ridiculously overpriced like everything else.

@@acid5ive244 Where people still won't buy them because like the Battlepass most people don't buy stuff out of the Bazar. I honestly think we're going to see a restructuring to the Bazar in the near future. It's just not performing well and I think Funcom knows that.

[@mausolus8466]

@@acid5ive244 I'm glad I'm not the only one whose mind this idea immediately crossed... compared to abominable prices in Bazaar, Battlepass was quite good source of new cosmetics, even though I had issues with it as well (give us back those Yog/Derketo-damned DLCs)

[@Xilivian]

@@OlSkunGun Nobody---even---implied paying for such a thing? Fuck both. The cash shop is easily ignored. And with the battle pass disappearing from the menu tabs interconnected with your inventory, that means less pointless clutter to be forced to look at every time one decides to get on and play the game.

[@xxxlonewolf49]

They got money from the cancer pass. I do NOT belive them that it will go & stay away. Soulless greed doesn't care about player feelings or desires.

[@barracuda3111]

Cool, 3 times is nuts tho..might as well be unlimited.. once, twice at the most..

[@SquirrelGamez]

The followers not perma-dying is awesome, but them removing the battlepass is a terrible decision. I paid only for the first one and unlocked every single thing from every single battlepass since so easily, and without paying a cent because each battlepass gave enough crom coin for the next pass. It had become the best value for your money they ever had, even better than the DLC's. Now all that's left is that stupid ridiculously overpriced bazaar. I been playing this game on and off since closed beta but they just lost me with this update.

[@jamesanthony8438]

"... today was the first of the 'smaller' updates..." and on Series S, was something like 53 GB. Not looking forward to the larger ones if that's the case. Gee, that's too bad about the battlepass, huh? If they'd only left it the hell alone, we'd all still be buying them, but nooOOOooo! they had to f*ck them up these last two times. Good job, tenten, or whatever the hell your new group is called. Took a cash cow and converted it to pennies; but then again, di$ney did the same thing with Marvel and Star Wars, so I guess you saw the success they weren't having and decided, "we need more of that!" =) It's nice that they're trying to make the game fun again by re-adding the witch hunts, but it's too little too late for me. What's the point when the rest of the experience is crap, now?

Why play this over Soulmask though? Soulmask just seems to much better in terms of QoL and features

[@Aaron-ox1vg]

Better maps, more interesting setting, less reliance on RNG grinding, waaaay more mods, and I wouldn't say Soulmask is doing very well on the QoL front in its current state. Don't get me wrong, I like Soulmask so far, but there are a lot of things about it that make me want to start a new Conan playthrough.

[@namelessjedi2242]

I don't have a high end graphics card nor 32gb (24gb rec) for Soulmask. That's why.

[@SkaerKrow]

This new mechanic presages even more thrall nerfs, which further ruins what made this game stand out among its competitors.

[@Temp3]

I must admit though for everyone who says the game is dying, i think the creators are giving the game alot of attention compared to most companies, the game is evolving at a good rate with some massive improvements both in combat and gameplay. In all i think the game is fantastic and if some of the players that have moved on, called in to check it out they would be surprised. Everything is easy enough to obtain making pvp playable regardless how many times your wiped and PvP speaks for itself. Well done Funcom 🥰

*PvE speaks for itself sorry 😂
